Wyvernx, would you be able to compile a service and packet sniffer for WoW and setup a radar to test it with in beta.
It is currently in a Stress test period, and then Open beta next week.

If you could test radar in this period it would be safer just incase they have any anti-detection methods.

Thank you.

ive heard its nearly impossible to make radar for wow that actually gives you an advantage. i heard it only sends your computer the information of what you can already see ingame so radar would be useless. is this true?

Just like daoc does, but that doesnt stop me from using it.

mainly because you can see 360 on a map!

I dont think its as limited as you think. They may in fact use a bubble, lots of games these days do just so that they dont have to send you as much information. But they still have to use a bubble bigger than what you can actually see or you would have mobs suddenly popping into view and all. The bubble is almost always larger than you can see and therefor using a radar will provide some advantage.

ya i'm level 58 priest, on archimonde. I can say that the "bubble" is pretty damn big, stuff is loaded to the point where you can put your crosshair on lil specs, and its a target. The only problem atm I see w/ this is the lag thats been currently on most servers. Some times mobs won't show up till their w/ in 5'. But any way it will still be great specially for those damn sneaky rogues.

well i have yet to see a working radar from XU on daoc or wow. Daoc always had the map in the corner. I couldnt get any daoc scripts to work. The only thing i ever found useful was the plugin that makes your screen lighter ..o well. I hope there will be something i can use for WoW soon.
