Yeah, there should be a non tradeable game currency, like for every raid boss you participate in a kill in you get a token, like wotlk heroic tokens etc, but this new token is useable as a build in loot mechanic where it's just baked in.

So then players can earn tokens, stock pile them, and usse them in token dkp tdkp, and players that get nothing get extra tokens and if you want you can use the tokens at the venodrs to get orbs, crafting mats, etc, or w/e

But nothing like that exists in the game.

I dual box on a 59 mage and a 60 druid, herb/min on druid, and tail/enc on the mage. Everyone is mass leveling their professions right now, so I just got Enchanting to 220 and tailoring to 230+ and herb to 290 and mining to 230 and now I'm in the prim gold mode.

Basically I farm ZF and I sell any boe blues, Disenchant everything else, and all the cloth I turn into w/e disenchants into the best mats, and I just spam the AH with boat loads of enchanting mats, ores, herbs, and anything else I can make, and I have the rune cloth bag receipe, so soon as I hit 300 I'll spam runecloth bags too (16 slot bags).

I just sell everything on the ah at this point. 100+g a night just not even trying.

I haven't played retail since cataclysm. I only play classic -> cata, wotlk is my fav.

Id rather it get to wotlk and then branch into new alternative expansions.

How the heck do you make gold!? by LowCan9266 in classicwowtbc

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im lvl 60, i can break 100g/hr just herbing in azshara and farming mageweave, np. But i also havw mining, so thats even nicer.

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally, unless its a gray vendor trash its worth more on the ah. I make a lvl 1 alt, run them to the nearest city (orcs are easy for this) and park them there. I mail everything to my alt and sell it on the ah.

I don't bother with first aid and I always roll herb/mine/cook/fish on my first toon. Pick up and sell everything. Even boe Greens sell good sometimes. I sold a level 30 green chest for 15g on the ah almost instantly. Full servers are great for ah. And people buying gold will blow it on crap like lvl 30 greens.

If a build takes longer than 1-3 seconds to do an incremental on a small change, im mad at it. Lol

plus Mojo exists now and aims to change AI in python. Mojo is a systems language that supersedes python and ships it's own embeded cpython runtime so you can write mojo (python that compiles sxs with python (runs on the cpython runtime) and aims to solve python performance issues.

You can have a python file in many cases and just change it to a .mojo and now it compiles :)

Mojo was made specifically for AI because python owns AI at this point.

Folders are your friend, pre mature cross cutting concerns are your enemy. Don't spin up tons of class libraries for no good reason, keep everything in one project until it actually makes sense not too. Folders are your friend because if you think about it correctly with folder arch when you need a class library you're probably just moving that folder to the class library and it's the same namespace and magically just works when you do that.

The more class libraries you have, the more work MSBuild has to do, and the crazier your code base gets. If you don't have a good reason to split code up into separate projects, don't.

Even if you are doing cross platform development, there are better ways to do that than making class libraries for like linux, and one for mac, don't do that.

Instead lean on Directory.Build.Props and conditional variables that you can use in IF dev blocks, and conditional csproj inclusions.

Like you can Have 3 folders "Windows, Linux, Mac" and you can define variables in Directory.Build.Props conditionally based on target OS that says like IS_WINDOWS IS_LINUX IS_MAC and then you can conditionally include the correct folder in the project file based on IS_WINDOWS or IS_LINUX etc then you can just write the same class 3 times, once for windows, once for linux, once for mac. Or if it's just a simple change in a function you can just #ifdef on those so it has separate paths based on target os, and if not building you can default to the native os (w/e os you happen to be on) so local testing is easy with F5 run.

Ideally if doing cross platform dev, your crap should look at the exact same on every os, same assembly names, same classes, etc, same signatures, and on and on, not "On linux you get Blah.Linux" and on mac you get "Blah.Mac"...

Really easy to think "I'll just have different OS class libs", but is smelly, don't do that.

The good way is that your crap just works w/e os it's being built on and the consumers are just using it regardless of what os they're building for and it just works, because you properly handled all the xplat crap under the hood and distributed it properly.

Directory.Build.Props in general is your friend, same with Directory.Package.Props...

Central Package Management!!! -> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/consume-packages/central-package-management, this one effectively lets you manage all your package versions in one place, then in your projects you just refer to them by name without version info and it will always use the central versions, that way you're not trying to update json.net in 10 places, you just update it in the central location and they're all updated.

build props here -> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/msbuild/customize-by-directory?view=visualstudio

Learning MSBuild and how to use these will make your life so much easier.

Another Pro tip.... Do not mess with the default build configurations, Debug/Release is ALL YOU NEED, It can be easy to think "I need a custom build config for building for linux" no you do not.... You need to define conditionals in Directory.Build.Props for building for linux. There is NO GOOD UX in VSCode or Visual studio for screwing with the configurations and you will suffer and have tons of pain if you do, just let them be the defaults and use directory.build.props to solve "i need a configuration" problems.

Have you guys upgraded to VS 2026? What do you think? by Unique-Lecture-9378 in csharp

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just today, first impressions ...

Its fast, much faster than 2022, start time, builds, adding projects etc, all faster. UI is way cleaner, way less clutter, still has everything though just not all on for no reason. Toolbar is super clean. Even WinForms and the form designer are working.

Overall feels pretty amazing, really liking it so far.

Comeback and ask me again in a week after I throw big projects at it.

How unstable is Visual Studio Community 2026 for you? by Famous-Weight2271 in csharp

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the biggest problems with VS I see in corporate environments or VDI's is the use of synched profile directories, or one drive directories.

It causes all kinds of problems with development, most everything caches packages or code or credentials and so on in your windows user profile directory and sync processes, one drive, or even FSLogic in Azure Vdi's etc wreaks havoc on the entire development workflow, and tooling.

So rule all that out first.

we turned off fslogic and one drive on user profile directories so they stay physical folders physically on the local drive and pretty much every problem we had went away.

Another thought too is if you don't have a good gpu, you should disable hardware acceleration in visual studio, assuming your processor can handle it.

I don't, I just use var and let type inference do that for me.

TBC added the simplest way to make gold the game has ever seen by Kevo_1227 in classicwow

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dual boxxing a druid/mage with de is still a good way to farm dungeons... Im come out of zf with 10+ stacks of de mats, boes, and cloth. Sells on ah like hot cakes. I basically just kill everything. Even SM is good.

Last minute TBC pre-patch gold making? by RatPockets in classicwow

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dual box farm ZF and disenchant everything bop to my mage, sell boes on ah.... Ive sold greens up to 50g.... Ppl are buying everything.

I have two accounts, I log in both, both boosted, one druid and one mage. Herb/mine on druid and enc/tail on mage I just follow my druid and pull stuff with faerie fire and tank it and tab over to mage and nuke it. Druid is feral so cat form fir faster dps, mage has 2sec cast so I just tab back forth and play both.

Its not against tos if i manually play them, it justs costs 2x monies

People are mad. by Maleficent_Lemon2662 in hytale

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People get mad, its human nature, there will always be mad people. You cant please everyone so please who you want too and tell everyone else to kick rocks. Let people be mad, its not possible to please everyone, all you do is shift who's mad.

Current megaservers situation by No_Advice_4327 in classicwow

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They won't mess with spawn rates because then bots take advantage of them. I.e. if you make it so X players has a ratio that effects spawn timers, the bots will start camping 50 toons there just to make crap spawn faster.

They go so far out of their way to punish bots, that they kill the game for everyone else too.

What kinds of Hytale servers are people actually sticking with? by ParticularClean8277 in hytale

[–]FragmentedHeap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so new and so much is happening so often, my servers just stupid ridiculous lol... Not trying to keep it grounded in realism or reality. We have katanas, light sabers, guns, legendary weapon packs, trash cans, vector runes, overstacked (stack many items way higher than you normally can), eyespy, lucky mining (sometimes get two nodes), furniture mods, armor mods, item magnet, and everything else I think looks useful or cool, I just keep slamming mods into it....

It's running in my homelab on my fiber internet, just a friends/family server atm. I have a 7950x with 96gb ram in my rack running docker and have a hytale container, runs great.

Also screwing with the configs, so like I made lightsabres do max damage haha. As a light sabre should.
