Massive AddOn Author Cataclysm Beta Key Give-Away!
WoWInterface is proud to announce that we are offering Cataclysm™ Beta Invites to all our active, registered AddOn authors! Who loves ya baby? Okay, maybe love is too uncomfortable a word. Who takes care of ya baby? We do! Another massive Beta key give-away for AddOn authors, this time for the upcoming expansion Cataclysm™! This is not a contest! Whether using US or EU client, if you are an AddOn author that hosts with us and you have been keeping your AddOns current, you are eligible for a key! Once they have been enabled and you get the chance to get your AddOn ready for beta testing in the expansion, upload it to our Cataclysm Beta download category and then be sure to check back in our Cataclysm Beta forum for possible feedback. Rules:
Again, don't forget to make use of our Cataclysm Beta download category and Cataclysm Beta forum!
US PvE Alliance: <Secure Hookers> Horde: <Lewd On Demand> EU PvE Alliance: <Secure Hookers> Horde: <Garbage Collectors> |
Guild permissions are broken right now, so only the leader can invite fyi.
Also no first for you Lunessa. |
Could this also apply to interface authors? I'm not flagged as an 'addon author', but updating a custom interface is a lot of work. :)

Awh, okay. Shame. :p

'bout time! :p
Just kiddin, thanks alot for all the efforts! /me hugs Cairenn |

We indeed love you, Cairenn :P
To do: - quick finish bugfixes/feature requests for existing addons - prepare for Beta and rewriting! |
I would like to remind people that at this point in time, addons are *disabled* on the beta. The UI Team would like *their* addons tested and finished a bit before throwing it to the wolves (ie, us authors).
But, you can still test their UI changes and test the content! :D Tons'o'fun will be had by all, I assure you. :) If anyone would like an invite to the author guild, Secure Hookers, on the US-PVE server then send a tell to anyone online in the guild. And we will post in this thread when addons are again enabled on the Beta client. |

But I understand your decission. |
An oUF layout would be considered an AddOn. You are most likely not triggered because you have not uploaded your layout as a specific AddOn.
|
Oh, true. I might upload it seperately then - I planned to anyways, seeing as I got the request from a few people. :)
|
Can I have an invite if I send you guys 10$? >_>

First 50 keys have been assigned. Tracking numbers #000001 - #000050. Go get your key and start downloading! :)
|
I got mine. I love you, WoWI.
|
WOW that was fast thanks Cairenn
:banana::banana::banana: |

Any idea how fast each wave will come out? Btw thanks for this! |

inc wall of addons. ---->
|
I assume the fact they've given you and I assume curse these keys that they are getting close to adding the addon side of things to the beta ?
|
Just love this, happened with TBC and now again. Thank you Blizzard and WOWI for this opportunity to test and bugfix our AddOns!
|
Ok, authors, I expect all my addons to work upon launch of Cataclysm. You can blame Cairenn for these expectations! If any addons fail to work, there will be tar-ings, feather-ings, and pies-in-the-face!
I'm kidding, of course; I think it's awesome that Cairenn (or whomever at WoWInterface) managed to get our great authors in on this deal! Good luck with the compatibility changes! |
You guys are awesome. It's moments like this that make me proud to host my addons here. :)
|
Awesome, Ticket 89! :]
Thanks WoWInterface for this opportunity. I created a Portuguese WoW / MMO Website in Portuguese (Massivo.net) and this comes in handy too so I can report news, take screenshots, etc. :) Regarding addons, will we be able to upload cataclysm versions of our addons to WoWinterface and how will that work? (if it will). I knew when I chose WoWInterface that this was the best place to host my addons! ^^ |

Hmm, maybe I missed something, but is there no option to denote whether one plays on eu or us realms this time around ?
Just asking because the Wotlk beta keys for addon authors were seperated into US and EU keys. |

We were told it does not matter.
Next 50 keys have been assigned. Tracking numbers #000051 - #000100 |

What I'm amazed by at this point is the sudden jump in updated/new addons since this announcement, including some I've only seen released on Curse/WoWace.
Coincidence? I THINK NOT!! :p |
Quote:
I only hope that those addons added to the site are kept up to date. Having to check here and on curse to find the latest version is a pain. |

|
I'm not entirely sure on that one (I just have one account). The instructions on Battle.net should be able to tell you what to do, though. :)

Thank you for your help Lothay and many thanks to Cairenn and the rest of WoWInterface for making this possible. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
|
I seem to remember for the WotLK beta anyone with a mod in the mini games/ROFL type category didnt get access to a key until they requested it or something, I seem to remember having to do something extra to get my key.
Is this the case this time around as it says I am not eligible |
You really take care of me. Thanks a lot for this. :D
|
Yes, send me a PM Si_ with a link to your latest AddOn and I'll enter you if its more than a few lines of code. :)

Tracking ID # 000132
I'm wondering if I'm really eligible for this. Just in case I missed out I've applied anyway. The file I maintain is really just a list of /script Playsound macro commands ...... for every sound in the game. 21,074 of them in all. I've kept it updated for every patch that comes out , doing a re-extraction of the MPQ files each time a patch hit and revising it as need be as a friend of mine finds out things wrong with my upload. It's gotten a fair amount of downloads and is on 66 people's favourites list. I'm just wondering if it counts. It's okay if you say no - I understand that my place could better be taken by someone more deserving. I'll put myself in the queue and if you guys say I don't count you're welcome to remove me :) If I get I suppose I could try doing a re-extraction of the MPQ files on it. Or maybe I could look into any Data folder side changes and do some work in there somehow. |
Blu, see your PMs. :)
|
Wow! That was fast! Already have a beta key and Cata is installing. Thank you SO much everyone at WoW Interface. You folks have helped out every expansion beta and have come through every single time.
Question: I had read that addons were initially not allowed to be used to encourage testers to try out changes to the default UI. Has this changed? |

|
Gosh! There must've been at least 100 new addons uploaded in the last few hours! Hmmm, why would that be?... :D

This has made me rethink about the addons that I have been planning / working on. I have had a few in mind, but was going to hold off till Cataclysm before releasing them since there will most likley be massive changes. (I have only been using them myself.)

Thank you!
OMG! Thank you very much! I love you WoWInterface Team and all of its members! :eek::banana:
|
Thanks guys. You are awesome.
Installing right now :) |
This is so incredibly awesome, thanks a lot WOWI : )
|
Thanks!
Thanks a lot for making this available to us once again!
|
It's patching! W00t! :banana:
The new installer is nice, downloading & installing at the same time. :) |
To bad I dont know a thing about coding :(
|
I'll savor the mystery of upcoming content. :D
|
oh btw: it seems it is working without an active subscription so far! I could add the betakey and copy chars but my sub expired a few days ago. :)
|
You'll need an active account in order to actually play, though.
|
That's bad. So I have to pay for the beta. :(
Live Realm is boring... there is enough left to do (loremaster, ulduar drakes achievements and so much more) but I have seen it with so many chars its just not fun to get the Loremaster title. :rolleyes: |
