WotLK-Extensions

Client extension project, independent from TSWoW.

Cmake files based on TSWoW's ClientExtensions.

Patcher.exe

In essence, it's WoWFix335 by Robinsch, so most credits to him.

Most of patch content should probably be credited to FrostAtom, AwesomeWotlk is where I've got dll loading from.

Exe header data recalculated using CFF Explorer VIII.

WotLKExtensions.dll

Various runtime patches, as well as functionality extensions, all but one configurable from PatchConfig.h file. By default all of the patches are turned off!
Will be periodically updated, obviously (but no promises how ofted, depends on various factors). A lot can probably added. Even more could probably be improved.

Disclaimer: Good point brought by Robinsh on Discord: Use it with caution because some servers definitely scan the ebp for LUA calls and this will trigger it and might ban your account if using it. This project was created as something to use (and distribute) with your own private server project rather than to use with existing ones (unless distributed by them), so keep that in mind. If you get yourself banned, you've been warned :P.

Patches:

• No Ammo - disables ammo requirement for ranged weapons; may require server core edits to fix ammo display (if not edited, without ammo in ammo slot weapons will shot invisible arrows/bullets); requires core edit to patch out server side Out of Ammo error message
• More than 21 races crashfix - self-explanatory, allows to have up to 31 playable races in creation screen without crashes upon selecting them
• Combo point fix - allows every class to utilise combo points
• More than 12 classes in LFD - original role table stores only 12 (technically 13 if you count ID == 0) class bytes representing LFD roles, this patch expands it to 31; overriden by LFGRoles DBC if option is enabled
• Item mod expansion - normally newly added item mods are not properly displayed by the client, unless you repurpose existing ones; this patch allows adding custom string to the table that wil be read from GlobalStrings.lua (where it also needs to be implemented)
• WoWTime patch - mandatory patch, fixing issues with incorrect calendar and date (or even client crashes) as soon as 1.1.2031 hits

Custom Lua Functions
Various new or backported Lua functions - see Docs directory for further details.

Custom DBC Manager
What started as a code written in assembly sparked an idea of writing openly available DBC loader that's already in use by Duskhaven, being ported to main TSWoW repository, and now added to this project. See Docs directory for more info.

Custom Packets
Dll can handle new data received from and sent to server. See Docs for more info.
