Updates
Fixes, additions, and improvements shipped to IceDNicco.
Play used to wipe the whole Cache\WDB folder and then rewrite client files while Wow.exe was already starting. That caused WOWOW ERROR #132 (ACCESS_VIOLATION) a few times before the game stayed up. 1.7.41 only clears stale item/quest/NPC cache and does not touch Data or Interface while the game is running. Close the old launcher and download 1.7.41 — existing launchers self-update from the signed manifest.
Wolves, kobolds, grells and troggs in the starting valleys could show as immune. That is fixed — you can attack them again. Relog if a mob is still grey.
Launcher 1.7.40 lists all 17 languages in a gold menu. Website chrome (EN/UK/RU/PT plus FR DE NL IT ES AR PL CS FI NO ZH JA HI) is fully translated. News/changelog articles still use EN/UK/RU/PT columns.
The portal and launcher 1.7.39 add French, German, Dutch, Italian, Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Argentina), Polish, Czech, Finnish, Norwegian, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Hindi. News and changelog posts still use EN/UK/RU/PT columns; other languages fall back to English for those articles. Pick languages in Admin → Payments.
Bots now keep one level-80 match of each battleground filled to that map's cap: Warsong 10v10, Arathi / Eye of the Storm / Strand 15v15, Alterac and Isle of Conquest 40v40. Matches wait for a full side instead of starting at the old minimum (5–20). Queue the battleground you want, not Random (Random stays 10v10). Needs a world recreate.
When a real player is in Wintergrasp, idle level-75+ world bots are pulled until about 40 per faction (one raid per side), then sent home when nobody is there. 80v80 is not on by default — Wintergrasp shares the Northrend map with the rest of the world. Alterac Valley: bots keep one level-80 40v40 match filled. Queue Alterac Valley, not Random Battleground (Random stays 10v10). Needs the next world restart for AV; Wintergrasp Lua loads on the daily 05:00 Kyiv restart or a world recreate.
The IceDNicco launcher now shows all four language buttons like the website (English, Ukrainian, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese). The website already had PT; the launcher UI matches it.
Personal raid loot lockouts (.cd) now reset with the Wednesday 05:00 Kyiv world restart, not Wednesday 00:00 UTC. Raid Info (O) stays empty on purpose so the group shares one instance — that is not a daily loot reset. Existing kills this week were kept.
If a mini-boss is already dead, fire gates and the Halion ring open again on enter or after .reload ale. C++ Halion combat is unchanged. Raid lockouts were not reset.
The launcher installs MultiBot 4.0.1 for every player (/multibot). The worldserver now runs mod-multibot-bridge so the UI talks over MBOT addon messages instead of chat spam. Run Install / Update, then /reload.
PvP/PvE leaderboards and warm armory profiles are served from acore_auth snapshots refreshed in the background. Opening /ladder or a cached armory does not scan arena_team, character_inventory, or mythic_plus_dungeon_snapshot on the world MySQL.
ICC, Ulduar, ToC and Ruby Sanctum ScriptNames (bosses, adds, gunship, teleporters, instance scripts) are restored from stock AzerothCore. Eluna no longer binds creature events on those entries, so BossAI and SpellScripts run — including Marrowgar, Gunship, Putricide, Lich King, Leviathan, Mimiron, Yogg-Saron and Halion corporeality.
Eluna raid-meter hooks on boss entries replaced C++ boss AI with melee-only auto-attack. Those hooks now listen on the player side, so Marrowgar and the other raid bosses keep their scripts.
Changing a raid bot spec no longer leaves them naked: they are redressed for tank / heal / melee / caster (1H+shield for tanks). World combat hitch from the raid meter and a 3000-bot gear sweep is gone — meters only run during a live raid fight.
25-heroic Halion used a difficulty template with no boss script, so he stood in the crater as soon as the raid was entered. He is hidden again until General Zarithrian is dead. Raid lockouts were not reset.
