Items showing differently for different people?

by Jeniwyn » Fri Jun 12, 2015 9:43 pm

Today Augural Shroud dropped and at least 2 players in my group saw it as an int + agi item and I saw it as int+stam+spellpower just like on http://db.vanillagaming.org/?item=2620#wh-comments

This persisted after me disabling all addons.

So, 2 questions. What version is the item really. And if I'm the one showing items wrong, what can I do to fix it?

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:
