MobMap v3.43 released (edit: 3.44 out)

Thursday, August 13. 2009
This update primarily changes a few things with the boss loot lists, but I think the changelog speaks for itself ;-)

v3.43:
- changed: Boss loot tables have been revised a little to include the new distinction between 10 and 25 player raid instances. An icon next to the "heroic" icon will mark loots which are only available in the 25 player version. The new instance "Trial of the Crusader" will also appear in the instance list now.
- changed: DATABASE FORMAT CHANGE! You will have to get a new database copy when updating!

The updated packages are already online for download!

[edit] There still was a small bug in the data collection subsystem which was fixed now in the just-released v3.44.

MobMapUpdater upload bug fixed

Monday, August 10. 2009
There was a bug in the MobMapUpdater upload procedure which could cause the tool to crash with an access violation message (which would probably be in German even on english versions of Windows, so it would read "Zugriffsverletzung...") when trying to upload larger amounts of collected data, especially if the data was collected with the old version of WoW (3.1.3).

That bug has been fixed now, if you click that "upload" button now it should upload that data just fine :) I'm sorry for the inconvenience, though fortunately the functionality of MobMap itself hasn't been harmed at any time by this bug.

MobMap v3.42

Thursday, August 6. 2009
Another day, another new version - this one just does some more bugfixing. It's already online for download via the MobMapUpdater tool, manual downloads and installation package will be updated automatically in a few hours, too.

For the sake of completeness, here's the changelog from version 3.40 (the first with WoW Patch 3.2 support) onwards:
--------------------------------------------------
v3.40:
- changed: The addon has been updated for Patch 3.2

v3.41:
- fixed: A nasty bug which basically made the MobMap quest tracker non-reactive to user input and quest log changes
- fixed: Updated the version of the Astrolabe library to rev. 107

v3.42:
- fixed: An internal bug in the data collection system
- fixed: Mysterious Cooldown.lua errors (hopefully, was unable to replicate those for debug)

MobMap v3.41

Wednesday, August 5. 2009
With the German servers slowly coming back online, I finally had the opportunity to investigate the first bug reports concerning primarily the quest tracker. I revealed a nasty bug that caused the tracker to do irratic stuff, like not updating properly, or sometimes not even display anything at all, as well as not responding to clicks - I'm truly wondering how I could miss that one on the beta servers, I'd even swear it wasn't there when I tested MobMap 3.40 on the PTR.

However, the bug is found and fixed and a new release, version 3.41, went online right now. The quest tracker should work fine again in that release (I hope so, at least). If you encounter any other bugs, just leave me a message below this posting...let the post-patch-debugging madness begin ;-)

[edit] I just saw that the installer package was still happily delivering version 3.33 of the addon. Saw it and fixed it - you'll now get the newest version in that package right from the start.

MobMap v3.40

Wednesday, August 5. 2009
So there is it, just in time for all that Patch 3.2 updating that'll no doubt be going on in the next few days: MobMap 3.40, fully compatible with WoW 3.2 (at least it should be ;-)) This new version is already online for download via the MobMapUpdater, the manual download packages will follow in a few hours.

There ain't much new stuff, basically this is just a compatibility update without any new features, so there isn't much point in posting the full changelog here ;-) nevertheless a few things had to be changed for 3.2 compatibility, so if you encounter any new bugs while playing please leave me a comment in this posting and be sure that I'll investigate any real issues that may come along.
