4.0 is quite substantially re-written, and truth be told, we have the 4.0 code readily available, 3.4 is quite broken and bitty, we re-wrote a lot of plugins and stuff for 4.0.
I will throw this out though. The only reason we're fixing 3.4 is because 4.0 is still beta. When 4.0 is final, then 3.4 is dead.
This isn't open sourced by any chance, is it?
I'd love to take a look and see just how the hell you guys do your magic.

It's not sorry. You can use lua though now if you want to create your own stuff.

I wouldn't do that really... The new icon is here to stay.

How do I get the launcher to stop changing my background ratio? It keeps setting it to the same as my resolution?

Set it to supersampling if you want it to be 2x background, or manually change supersamping to 0.5 if you want it to be half background.

To the Windower 4.0 Beta Team:
I have grey hairs on my head that are as old as your Windower product. When I installed Windower 4 and officially checked out the new expansion, I was blown away. Truth be told, with DrawDistance there were things I have never noticed before. Thank you for all of your hardwork and for giving me the ability to never having to play on a non-pc.

Hm. Lua looks strange. Maybe I'll look into it.
Too bad I'm a simple Web Programmer and didn't specialize in systems for the last year :)

hey, is there a way to manually edit the registry in windower like on 3.4? The oversampling is great, but my pc isn't very good lol. When I have super sampling on it looks fabulous, really awesome, but it runs so bad. Then, whenever I click super sampling off it looks really bad. With 3.4 I was able to find a happy medium... :3 if you could help me out, that'd be awesome.

I wouldn't think that that one would be too bothersome, it'll only show while windower is up before you launch. Afterwards, it changes to the POL symbol.
I guess it depends on how long it takes you to click launch lol.
Be quick!

Open the settings XML file in the Windower4 directory and adjust the number between the supersampling tags.

I suggest adding game options for compression. It defaults to:
Texture Compression: High (Low Quality)
Map Compression: Compressed (Low Quality)
Font Compression: HQ (No problem with this one)

Check your silence.xml in /plugins/settings and find:
Code <showMessage>false</showMessage>
Change the "false" to "true".
So even after doing this change, when i load up in red text it still says failed to load plugin. Any ideas? or is silence just broke on 4.0?

Is anyone else having an issue with <stnpc>, <stpc> etc. actually triggering the spell/ability without hitting enter.
Ie. I hit my heal macro and the target selection cursor pops up, but before I select who to cast it on, it autocasts it on whatever target is selected at the time.

Hi, having problems with exec scripts (Was using 3.4 but now using 4 and want to use my macro scripts), if they are broken I can wait, however if there is a fix please let me know, thank you.

Ugh, sometimes I am too quick to ask questions before finding things out for myself, thank you Uwen :)
We've released a fix for Windower 4. If you use the Windower 4 Beta, just re-run the launcher and it will automatically update. If you haven't moved to v4 yet, we encourage you to do so here. We are working on backporting the fix to 3.4, and will be posting an update when a fix is available.
It's a hook update, so make sure you close the game before updating :).
