Any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong?

I updated the b2 download with a fix. Let me know if this build works for you.

Nope, same problem still. I made sure I had a new rawr.mage download and did a fresh install. These are the steps I take to reproduce this:

- Unzip Rawr b11 to my desktop (getting the "Rawr b11" folder).
- Unzip Rawr.mage b2 to the Rawr b11 folder.
- Open the Rawr b11 folder and double-click Rawr.exe
- Click "Mage" in the "Models" menu

Attached detailed output again in case there is any difference to the previous error:

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Domner, could you tell me what regional settings you're using?

Domner · 03/04/08, 8:25 AM

There we go, now it worked!

Thanks for the help, I guess I was too quick on the download or something because while I'm certain that the download page said "updated today", I later noticed that the file I had downloaded was a few kb larger than the one on the website. Yet another redownload and reinstall and it now seems to work (at least so far).

Regarding the regional settings, I'm running an English language Windows XP with date format, number format, keyboard layout etc. set to Swedish.

Kavan · 03/04/08, 8:29 AM

Nice to hear that it's working for you. I was afraid I screwed something up again :P

Andorian · 03/05/08, 1:23 PM

Kavan, could you add the ABx3Sx4-5 to your rotation choices for 40/21/0? The rotation has extreme DPM and the AB's are 1% stronger from playing with fire. The only problem I see is the possible latency it might experience.

• Astrylian · 03/06/08, 9:35 PM

UPDATED 3/6: Beta 12 posted!

DOWNLOAD: https://www.codeplex.com/Release/Pro...eleaseId=11411

Beta 12:
* Rawr now includes models for Moonkins, Mages, and Warlocks!
* Many more stats are tracked about items, for use in new and upcoming models.
* Fixed a bug in the options for Cat, so that it updates the label for the value of expose weakness.
* Icons now pull from the more reliable wowarmory.com instead of the old flakey armory.worldofwarcraft.com.
* You can now safely run multiple copies of Rawr at the same time by duplicating Rawr's folder. Each running copy of Rawr must be in its own folder, with its own cache xml files.
* Fixed some bugs that would cause Rawr to crash.
* The Splash screen has finally been redone! It now has a background image, and an icon for each model that is loaded, along with the version #s of each model, Rawr's UI, and Base.
* Tooltips on the calculations should really last a long time now, for everyone, I hope.
* The ItemCache should save faster, load faster, and take up alot less space, per item.
* There's a menu item now, to reload the character data from the Armory for the current character.
* The Projectile and Projectile Bag slots will now be hidden if they don't apply to the current model.
* Improved how Rawr handles requests for data from the Armory.
* When unable to access the Armory will now handle it much more gracefully. If you see blank icons, anywhere, that's probably the case.
* There's now an options dialog. More will come in there, but for now, there's customizable proxy settings. If you were previously unable to use Rawr due to being behind a proxy that was different from your IE settings, or required different authentication, give this a try.

Zene · 03/07/08, 1:40 AM

Looking good Rawr. The mage and druid ones work very nicely without crashing for me anymore like the previous version.

One question, is it possible to filter out certain gear? For example, filtering out warlock tier gear because a mage/druid would never be able to get it or vice versa.

Thanks

Aye, hope to have class requirements in the next version. Sorry about all you mages who have to see that warlock gear is better for you than your mage gear

Zarqon · 03/07/08, 5:23 AM

Nice work on the rawr.

Although, I just tried the beta12 version, and I get an unhandeled exception error when trying to use either immolate in the rotation, or looking at the talent choices in the warlock model.

North101 · 03/07/08, 10:46 AM

Something I'd like to see in Rawr is being able to compare to sets of equipment side by side or maybe even for it to load all the sets for the current model from the directory & recent.

e.g.

Ayekaramba · 03/07/08, 10:47 AM

Using Rawr b12 with the mage model there is a scroll bar missing in the options tab.

Zene · 03/07/08, 10:55 AM

One more question, perhaps a silly one. Can you direct me to the proper forum/person/link where I can understand exactly what the "DPS Cycle" the mage section has. When I highlight over it. I'm not 100% sure how to read that or use that for my own rotations.

Also, I to noticed the scroll bar missing in the Mage Options section.

e.g.

We've got plans for some better ways to compare whole sets at a time, though still a ways off from what you describe there. That might be possible on a model-specific basis... I'll look into it, thanks.

Regarding the missing scrollbar, I've logged that bug, we'll get it fixed.

The DPS cycle for mages is described in the "Mage TC in 2.4" thread, I think.

Hrank · 03/07/08, 2:28 PM

Nice work. Rawr was great even before the new models got added to it. You guys made it a great tool.

I'm not sure from the things I have read, so I'd rather ask: is there currently a Tree model being developped?

To whoever is developping the hunter model (if it actually is being developped as I thought I read): are all three specs given different models?
I'm thinking specifically about Surv of course, but I guess some sort of rating for the effect on pet damage for BM could be nice.

Tree and Hunter are both 'in progress' in that people have signed up to develop them, but there's no model checked in for them yet. So if anyone wants to help the current developers on those out, that'd be most welcome. JohnnyXEl is doing the hunter model.

Frodobolson is working on the Tree one, with some help from Bop, but Frodo could use some help on the coding side, if anyone wants to help out.

Hrank · 03/07/08, 7:03 PM

I wish I could. Thanks for the info. I'm sure these two models will come in handy whenever they're ready

The error happens upon changing models to moonkin or warlock but I can use mage, bear and cat no problem.

• Astrylian · 03/07/08, 7:11 PM

Let me guess... You're running windows of a locale where the decimal point for numbers is a comma, not a period? (ie "1,23" instead of "1.23")

I'll be trying to get a fix for that posted later today.

Yeah, I noticed that as soon as I downloaded the build - completely my fault, I had a dumb bug in there - (re: the spell rotation), I'll check out the talent issues in a bit though - not sure what's happening there. Fix for the spell rotation issue is checked in, so next release should fix that.

• Astrylian · 03/07/08, 10:08 PM

Rawr Beta 12.1 posted!

DOWNLOAD: https://www.codeplex.com/Release/Pro...eleaseId=11483

Beta 12.1:
- Fixed a bug that would cause "Input string not in correct format" errors when Rawr was run on copies of Windows for a region where a period is not the decimal separator (ie european countries where it would be "1,23" instead of "1.23").
- For proxies that filter by user-agent, the user-agent used by Rawr is now customizable in the proxy options.
- Config settings (like recent files) are now user specific.
- Fix for occasionally not loading icons immediately even though a network connection is available. Also fixed an error when there was no network connection.
- Rawr.Mage: Added new AB-AM cycle and new AB cycles with Frostbolt/Scorch filler, added a fix for the item budget comparison, added scrolling on the options screen, added Drums of Battle stacking,
- Rawr.Warlock: Fixed issue when altering spell cycle

I think the ABAMCC cycle that got in this build is bugged, I was 20 minutes too late on the fix

Doh. I'll post a new zip of 12.1... Just let anyone who encounters the bug know to regrab 12.1. Will update here when I've posted it.

EDIT: Looks like only 24 people downloaded the bugged version. New one is posting now...

EDIT 2: 12.1 reposted with your fix, Kavan. Can you give it a try and confirm?
