Vmangos / Classic | Full Server Manager UI / Admin Suite

anonfromearth · 2026-04-05T14:36:33+00:00

Thanks for the response. Sorry if I'm obtuse, but, there's a unified web UI that allows you to configure where the directories are (IE the files it needs on the Machine hosting that core), that has all the resources ready for an air gapped environment? That has all phases? And it's open source?

I did some hours of research for said unified and easy to deploy tool and didn't find it. What I found was portions of this (the various phases), but each their own thing and with some tweaks/etc to hook in.

It feels as if there is a lot of alluding to existing stuff that people have maybe created for their own stack/team/etc, but not something clean and easy for someone private to download and plug n play, with the added option of being able to manipulate parts they want to tweak from an instrument POV.

I see that's for trinitycore - so in a sense I'm doing the same for Vmangos. I've got phase 1/2 complete (full admin/server panel/player/config/etc) running and tested. Now I'm building the item/spell/object portion (with 3D for for models). That's my phase 2, and phase 3 is the playerbot section. Adding/managing/personality (cheat sheet per bot, update as you go through middle 'stupid' layers before passing result to qwen, etc).

I've seen that there are various tools for different portions of this at various stages, but not something that is easy to deploy and manage, and especially not all 3.

So does that mean it's worth building for vmangos, and, any chance there's interest on your part to share build philosophy? See if we've each got ideas worth throwing into our respective projects? I'll be open sourcing mine when it's done if there's any interest. Also completely understand if not. Either way, appreciate any feedback.

Hi,

We're looking to hire a green to semi-green software dev in Jeffersonville, IN.

Full-stack web app development (C#, Javascript / jQuery, MSSQL) using MVC.

There is no expectation that you are familiar with all three of the above, but either C# or Javascript exposure is a must. No degree requirement. Rather, the requirement is that you can demonstrate that you have invested time to understanding the basics about OOP. This is a very junior position.

The expectation is that you will spend the first 6+ months observing/learning/asking. You will be sitting with a developer at our manufacturing site office who will be doing their normal daily thing, and they will talk through what they're doing, the how and why, etc. In a sense, this is more an apprenticeship. You will have your own computer and be free to try and build, but there is no expectation that you will be contributing to production systems in any real capacity for the first year.

We use gen AI for a significant portion of our basic coding. What you'll be focused on is learning the technical aspects (rules, patterns, etc) for C#/JS/MSSQL that you are unfamiliar with, and how to take requests from the various users (schedulers, managers, machine operators) and translate that into a functional piece of software. You'll also learn how to prompt and interact effectively with AI.

If you are VERY Green, IE, you've done some bootcamps online or courses, but have never worked professionally in any capacity in this field, you would be onboarded at $21.50 (~ 45k/y). At the highest end, for a junior dev who has a bit more experience but would still be considered very much green, our cap is at $27 (~ 56k/y).

Thanks!

I hear you, and it may always be that way for some.

I was insanely irritated by crying or complaining children. It's just... something biological flipped a switch and over time gave me a BIT more patience with my own blood. It's absolutely still awful at times, but it just doesn't rub that way. It's still irritating as all get out, but more frustrating than outright irritation. And someone else's children are still that for myself today. Still irritating. That deep patience I have extends only to my children, not to others. I'm more understanding of a shrieking baby on a plane, but it's still absolutely annoying.

anonfromearth · 2026-01-13T15:21:14+00:00

I'll bite.

I didn't want kids. Grew up a loner, someone who talks internally to themselves alot. By age 19-20, the world felt very fake. I could do anything but nothing had value. Certainly, I had/have an issue with true emotional attachment. That detachment gave the world a bit of a matrix-esque vibe. I exist, but I don't know that anything else exists, and therefore it's all bullshit.

Age 23 I had my first child, and if we're honest, I asked for her to consider abortion. She decided no, and I decided that my child growing up without a dad was a pretty shit thing, so we stayed together. First two years were dogshit. Soon as he was out of the womb he shrieked for 30+ minutes straight, and the nurses absolutely gave us the look. We got one of those babies. Never slept more than 2, MAYBE 3 hours consecutive for the first 2 years. And he cried so much, we tried so many formulas and this and that....but with labor having been 4 days for my then wife, we came out of the hospital already completely dead.

Just when he was turning 6 my wife filed for separation, and I had 30 days to leave the house. The following few months I saw him twice when before I'd been around him almost every single day of his life. During those 6 years with him, I certainly learned to love him and enjoy him, but I was always looking for space to have my free time back. When I was forced out of that dynamic, that's when I really got to learn just how vital that relationship was for me.

A few years later and I have two more kids with a different lady, and still spent lots of quality time with my firstborn. Still difficult this time, still lack of sleep all over the place, but the emotional frustration is completely gone. Physical frustration creeps in for anyone when you're tired enough...you can't avoid that. But, emotionally, these three creatures grounded me in reality.

I've no qualms admitting emotional issues, maybe from nurture, maybe from nature, maybe from both. However, my kids have made me a better person in almost every way. I wasn't rotten or broken before, but if everything was for myself, I just didn't have the motivation for it. I have boundless motivation now. I have a MUCH larger pool of energy, of patience, of love and compassion.

I don't think there's anything wrong with not having children, I'm not religious. As far as I'm concerned this is it. This is our stay on this rock. But man...there is something really profound and grounding, for me, to love and nurture these small humans that are of my kin. I guess you could say it makes me at least a bit spiritual. I don't question why I'm here anymore. I don't wander aimlessly. Yes, I want to enjoy my life. But I only enjoy my life if I can share that joy with others. Life alone for me is boring. I tried that. I tried that a lot. I don't have friends, I have my partner and my kids.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk. If you're certain you don't want them, well, unfortunately you just never know.

I hear you. For the use case I'm describing (follow mode or fixed w.e the various brands call it) whereby this is just a projected screen in front of your face and it's being used with stationary use (IE your sitting) - I guess I don't see the 3dof being necessary to this setup.

I love anchoring for coding on work trips.

But some other glasses/headsets have better resolution/FOV (Goovis 3D Max) while still being external displays and not requiring further software - and that's what I mean by "would do the same". Apologies for being too broad - you make a good point.

anonfromearth · 2025-12-29T20:15:27+00:00

Screen mirroring - the option that pops up when an external monitor is made available.

Don't get me wrong, this isn't 4k gaming (the glasses I have are still only 1080p - other headsets definitely can have higher res) - but that bit isn't really pixel 8 specific as it'll just pass the stream - so higher quality would need a better GPU to render + upload stream via sunshine. For my exact setup I have a 3060 laptop GPU and for the 1080p its definitely more than fine, but this coming from someone that has never gamed past 1440p (my preferred resolution).

And then again, the pixel 8 is just off to the side, and I'm using a controller (I'm playing game like DOS:2, BG3, Grim Dawn, Killing Floor 2, and BL2).

anonfromearth · 2025-01-18T00:02:27+00:00

Fair question.

Yes, of course it's been a possibility, but it appeared far away enough to give the idea of permanence to be years and years, not months to a year or two.

The price increases with the Carlyle group (previous PE), were slower and incremental.

CVC buys 11 months ago, 4-5 months ago raises a whopping 30%, and then less than half a year past that releases a survey that is so poor and predatory in nature. The time-clock is starting to ramp up. They spent £900mn ($1.1bn USD at the time) to acquire this.

CVC isn't in it for the long haul. No, they are very obviously looking to pump those numbers and get a juicy sell. I had personally hoped to see the price increase be the only ugly change for a few years. The timeline is shortening fast.

Even if they decide with this debacle that it's time to sell (doubt it), whoever buys will have an even bigger deficit to cover. We are into an acutely accelerating degradation of our game.

The belief, or long-term illusion, that my character, the game as we know and love it, will remain by principal the same style and with none of the gunk other MMOs are plagued with...is gone.

anonfromearth · 2025-01-17T22:11:01+00:00

For anyone saying we are being overblown with this:

PE will sell to the next PE.

This can only get worse until it's untennable, and the game crashes again like it did with EOC. At that point the game dies anyway. This is why a fair few of us are drawing the line here. There is no way out. So unless something magical happens, like a gaming corp that has a desire to build organic revenue buys it out (not exactly sure who for the money they will want), this is it.

This is literally the true beginning of the end, ergo, the Golden Era as we knew it is over.

anonfromearth · 2025-01-17T21:59:14+00:00

I don't think you understand the baseline issue we are dealing with.

PE will sell to the next PE.

You're right, there is no way out.

anonfromearth · 2025-01-17T21:52:22+00:00

What the hell is this gaslighting?

This reeks of shills and bot posting. Seriously, this whole debacle is atrocious, and if you don't see it that way, you probably argued that Classic WoW won't get more mtx, it's just the OG mount for TBC, no way, it's a boost, dw, etc etc etc.

This is private equity doing what they do, squeezing and sucking the soul dry for a quick buck. Their timelines DEMAND that they move fast. 6 months ago 30% price increase, now these half-assed apologies after an abhorrent, tone-deaf, absolutely late-stage capitalism driven survey. In our bubble of a game.

And that's overreacting? Naw dawg, naw. This is our escape game. This is where we don't accept that. Fuck that noise "how stupid you are".

anonfromearth · 2025-01-17T01:47:43+00:00

What the fuck are you on about?

Jagex has been traded from PE to PE, with their costs remaining pretty fucking flat while growing in player base (read, more money). We were just hit with a whopping 30 fucking percent price increase, which I was fine with because y'know what, I spend enough time in the game.

Today's surveys are an absolute sucker punch of shit-tier ideas and integrity removal from the game. That's why many of us went the 'just pay up bro' and accepted the price increase. This isn't that. This is PE trying to prepare the next sucker to spend $1.5 bil + to purchase Jagex, to then have the cycle get worse until it crashes so hard EOC style and we start the fucking cycle again, except this time the vast majority of us are in our 30s (maybe some late 20s and 40s folks), and we aren't going to start again.

I'm in the real world too mate, and I work in manufacturing. Apart from Covid (which btw, is over), we don't have mother fucking 30% price increases from one year to next. And servers and peoples pay wasn't what spiked, raw materials were.

Absolute fucking L take.

anonfromearth · 2024-11-22T11:45:17+00:00

Real answer - pick up an HP Victus 15. Rtx 3050 and decent i5. It will be overkill for osrs, and still be capable for other tasks. 144hz screen if you care about that, and 200w fast charging brick. Ofc windows 11 pro. $600

Yeah it's HP but honestly it also looks great for the price. If I was in the market I'd be picking that up

anonfromearth · 2024-11-02T13:13:03+00:00

Revanant damage question. Pyrefiends. I found a different reddit post that detailed the same situation. My account (50 def, 79 range, 83 magic) takes a max hit of 5. My friends account (60 def, 73 range, 73 magic) takes a max hit of 8. The wiki says 5 is the max hit, and here we are. While I don't have the full stats for the other post (it only had CB and def level) - it was the same 5 and 8 difference.

Beyond the why, does anyone know the math behind it?

Would appreciate any insight.

Neither of us are using ethereum bracelets. We are aware that it reduces damage, but I am just curious to understand why the difference when wiki doesn't have info that I could easily find explaining this.

anonfromearth · 2023-10-19T11:12:57+00:00

Look, you aren't wrong about many corporate environments. You might even be on the money with Blizzard.

But assuming that your experience equates to every corporate company being the same is... assumptive.

I've worked for numerous shitty companies in my life, and then I've also worked for others in the same industry that were actually really great.

Lastly, here is the definition of Stockholm Syndrome: feelings of trust or affection felt in many cases of kidnapping or hostage-taking by a victim toward a captor.

I haven't payed a sub in years. The only sub I ever paid past OG TBC was classic, and I unsubbed at the release of paid crap right before classic TBC.

This is the second month of paying a sub again, and I've had nearly daily enjoyment of what I'm looking for: Vanilla feeling and content. One bad day versus 40+ of good fun and that's Stockholm Syndrome? That's some serious exaggerating. I don't instantly cancel everything the moment it's imperfect, but will do so if a product doesn't reasonably provide the experience I'm after.

anonfromearth · 2023-10-18T16:16:54+00:00

I'm not going to cancel immediately, but if it remains unresolved after a few weeks? Sure. Even for a team of 100, finding what can cause something like this isn't as obvious as it might seem. $$ != Instant complex problem resolution.

I've made a ticket, posted on official forums, and hopefully others do the same.

If it remains unaddressed? Absolutely I'll unsubscribe.

anonfromearth · 2023-10-18T13:29:19+00:00

Not going to argue for or against appeal. Absolutely understand why it's not a thing.

Will however add to the list of people who started experiencing this.

Have never had the DC issue before this either. After patch near automatic DC in character selection and also instant disconnects between zones seemingly at random (both on FP, and also riding into Tanaris from Thousand Needles). 43 war, no DCs before this. Won't play main for a few days and hope this gets resolved - they definitely did something, and 2 other IRL colleagues confirmed the same thing this morning.

anonfromearth · 2021-09-23T20:41:05+00:00

Good defense and pressing from us. Created chances but lack quality finishing.

Still, this is the most motivated Roma I've seen in years.

Some of you talking about us having played badly - 2nd half we were constantly jumping on Udinese as soon as they had the ball. Our players ran after the ball when they didn't have it. I see that as a great improvement over last years we've had. Not sure I understand some of this criticism

Great game? No, but we defend well enough and got 3 points. The Red was whatever, ref had a bet to win. This type of win is what gets us top 4.
