4x WD Veloci Raptor RAID0

Hey, just a heads-up that this content is based on an automatically imported version from our old CMS. If the formatting isn’t perfect, I’m sorry about that. Translation This original post is written in german 🇩🇪, a rough Translation: After hours of volume sync, the new RAID is ready. Performance is clearly better than with 2x Veloci. Access time worse than SSD RAID, but transfer rates are strong, even at 64k; full speed from 128k. Burst read is ~100 MB/s slower than normal, unusual. Windows boot feels faster. ...

SATA Kabel Schuld an schlechter Performance

Hey, just a heads-up that this content is based on an automatically imported version from our old CMS. If the formatting isn’t perfect, I’m sorry about that. Translation This original post is written in german 🇩🇪, a rough Translation: SATA cable design is problematic. I had frequent sub-second stutters causing brief system freezes every 30–60 seconds. Disks tested fine; suspected cable issue. Replaced with quality clipped SATA II cables, problem solved, clear benchmark improvement. Setup: two WD VelociRaptor 300 in RAID 0 on Areca 1210. SSDs postponed; bought two more VelociRaptors. ...

testing Wow ChatMOD rev. 132 for 3.1.0

Hey, just a heads-up that this content is based on an automatically imported version from our old CMS. If the formatting isn’t perfect, I’m sorry about that. [![](/images/09/wowscrnshot_041809_120334.png)](http://solariz.de/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/wowscrnshot-041809-1203348x6.jpg) Ok, first of all, this post is written in English because I want to collect feedback not just from German users. After 7 months without a really necessary update, I have to change some things due to minor compatibility issues reported by some users. The work I did this noon was mainly fixing bugs reported since the last revision 131 in October '08. I also updated some parts of the language files and decided to switch the whole Addon to UTF-8 encoding because of the Chinese version. ### Custom Highlighter But besides several bug fixes, the custom highlighter function was improved. In the past, there was this nasty behavior of the highlighter, highlighting text parts within words. For example, you configured to highlight the word "Resi," and now the highlighter did its job and highlighted everything with the substring "resi." This leads to strange highlightings like **Resi**stance. Since rev 132, there is an additional option in the Highlighter screen "full words only." I guess I do not have to explain what it actually does. ### Some Denounced Functions Actually, only two. The first is the "Dismount on Taxi." This function is now implemented in the Game Client itself, so no need for the Mod to do this. The second one is the Itemlinker. This module caused me trouble since I first implemented it. There are some other great mods out there just doing item linking. Currently, the WoW client supports so many kinds of links that it's simply too much to have this as a goodie function in a chat mod. ### Current Changelog * update locale zhCN * chinese wow client chatmod fix * Aizotu fix, ClassToNum * updated to current Wow Version * main files now UTF-8 * Mod. custom highlighter UI added button for "only full word" * Custom Highlighter improved * general code cleanup and prep. for further patches * removed autodismount because client can do this without a mod now * Removed Item Linking features, why? type `/chatmod chatlink` ### Current Status and Testing Because I'm not playing WoW actively at the moment, I have no possibility to test the new release in a "real environment." Of course, I did a basic "dry testing" of all functions, but you know there are many things that could cause errors you can't really test sitting in Ironforge ;) Btw, thanks to Hudiny who lent his account for rev 132 development. My request to everybody who downloads the rev 132 testing version: Please post any found error or strange behavior as a comment below this post. I will give this testing round about a week and try to fix all commented bugs on the next weekend. After this fix, I will put online a public non-beta.

AoC: FPS Boost

Hey, just a heads-up that this content is based on an automatically imported version from our old CMS. If the formatting isn’t perfect, I’m sorry about that. The Method is quite old and simple, but I actually got the idea to retry it for Conan by reading this Thread in the official AoC Forum. After this, I found another one in which a batch file was generated which calls a patcher and then starts Conan. By the reason to compile the FPS Boost tool for myself, I added a launch function for AoC. Because I want to share it with others, I set it online for download and this little Article to explain what it does. ...

Custom UI Patcher

Hey, just a heads-up that this content is based on an automatically imported version from our old CMS. If the formatting isn’t perfect, I’m sorry about that. Age of Conan: Custom UI Patcher Ok, this is my first “mod” for AoC. You actually can’t call it a mod because it is an external tool which helps to keep the Mods in your AoC directory up to date. If you played WoW in the beginnings, you might compare it with an automatic TOC patcher. In AoC, the versioning of mods goes one step further or backwards depending on how you see it. Each XML File in a Modification has its own special version numbering which looks like: ...
