WebWowViewerCpp-0.3.1 unable to update Database with new 11.2.7 WoW Patch.

[SunKillerKovu]

Although it's been short-lived so far for me, this tool has been one of most exciting things for me. I've been an avid "out-of-bounds" explorer my whole life in video games, especially WoW. I used the tool for a while during patch 11.2.5 -- but ever since I updated to 11.2.7, the maps no longer show up in CASC Storage. When I try to update the Data Base within the program using the top task bar, I get "Area Table not found". I think that a recent wow update 11.2.7 moved those files around, so the github definition of where AreaTable exists is no longer right, and map viewer can't find it.

I've tried opening the WoW Depository 3 ways:

1. Selecting the entire World of Warcraft folder (which is what I've always done)
2. Selecting Classsic and Classic Era folder
3. Selecting Retail folder

All give the same result: No maps to select anymore.

Hi. Thank you for you interest in this viewer. Soon it will be updated with fixes. The issues you see are related to CascLib, which is used for opening WoW's storage. In the end I made a decision to move to port of C# lib I made, called TactCpp. Atm the app is little bit in development hell related to proper implementation of liquids, the changes stockpiled and liquids are kinda in broken state as of now. That's why I haven't released new version yet. But let's see if I will be able to make the final push

Hi Deamon!
I'm happy to hear this project is still getting the attention it deserves. I'm curious -- with the release of Midnight and the changes to how they do addons (more restrictive and hidden), will that affect how this tool works and develops?

[SunKillerKovu]

Hello Deamon!
Question: If I somehow get a WoW version on patch 11.2.5, and link to tool to it, will it work?
I understand you were making improvements, porting everything into TactCpp--but in the meanwhile will your program under this current file work on a 11.2.5 version of WoW?

thanks!

Hello !
I'm having the same problem as SunKillerKovu, "Could not read area2db table" and no maps show up.
Tried both retail (Midnight) and classic era. I've seen people who were able to make it work somehow so it's quite puzzling !
Is there a way to fix this since I've seen videos using it ?

Anyway, you're doing a fantastic work, all the tweaks and changes that can be done to the fog, light and stuff looks amazing.
Hopefully you'll manage to fix it, just don't burn yourself if it's in development hell as you mentioned, slowly but surely beats rushing, making mistakes and regretting.

Cheers !
