When does stuff like this get updated? I hear all about these items that will get fixed "after the patch". What's the word on that?

What confuses me is that I saw Deathbone Chestpiece on someone already and it had those blue stats, but all the other pieces are green, and actually pretty crappy. Maybe it was initially a blue item and the others were in the updates?

Sorry for a copy and paste, but it's the best I can do until AverageJoe updates his stickied thread to include the WDB issue with VirtualStore and Administrator privileges

The reason for the items being different is you see them post-itemization when they have worse item quality and/or worse stats. Some items have better stats/effects though. Like Spirit of Aquementas reducing the mana cost of all spells by 25.

Delete your WDB folder. If you don't have a WDB folder in your folder:

If you can't find it, try searching your user folder. The folder structure may differ between different versions of Windows.

You could just do
Start => Run => C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic
Windows Explorer will open to that directory.

This should be the same for Vista and above as Windows 95 and XP didn't have C:\Users IIRC.

For the second quote, try deleting the WDB folder in that directory if you cannot run WoW.exe as an admin. Your UI will reset, but don't worry. Copy the WTF folder from C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic to C:\Program File (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic\ and you should have all your settings, UI adjustments, etc.

If you run WoW as admin after copying the WTF folder from the VirtualStore directory, WoW may rewrite it the WTF folder to the default settings so I suggest running WoW as administrator, logging into a character, exit the game, and copy the VirtualStore WTF folder over to your C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic\ directory.

Let me know if any of this helps.

to always have admin privilege on WoW.exe:

I have the game_launch.bat file I created that I thought deleted that stuff at the start. Is this something different? What would this do anyway?

I'm not aware of any batch files doing this (.bat). Care to right click on that and hit "Edit" then post what you see inside the notepad/wordpad to pastebin.com for me?

What I posted in the reply above your's is manually deleting your WDB folder and running it as administrator so you have the WDB folder inside your WoW Classic folder rather than your VirtualStore folder created for the program. (C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic)

Running it as administrator will make the new folders appear in your WoW Classic folder: "WTF" and "WDB". In order to have your UI and all saved variables, I recommend copying the WTF folder from the VirtualStore path to the WoW Classic path.

Basically everything there simplifies the process of deleting your WDB folder.

Actually doesn't seem to working correctly I guess. It wasn't running as admin, and doing so says it can't find the exe. So I just delete the WDB folder? What about WTF?

Keep your WTF folder no matter what. It's your saved variables and everything you did on your own.

"rd" (Remove Directory) basically removes the folder "WDB" from within the folder you keep the batch file in. If you're not running the game as administrator, the WDB folder is created in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic

However, if you don't want to do all the steps I mentioned... You can edit the batch file to:

Code: Select all: @echo off cd C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic rd /s /Q "WDB" start WoW.exe exit

I don't have a World of Warcraft directory in that path.
