SCMDraft seems to look for rez\epilogx.txt in the game files to detect if the expansion is installed, and it seems like the bad patch deleted this file (probably whoever is working on these new patches didn't know to leave it for this reason). If anyone has contact with the author, may be good to let them know, since it seems likely Blizzard will roll these changes back out in the near future and given that they can't even be bothered to post a single announcement, I doubt they're making any effort to contact anyone either.

I don't know others capabilities but just couple days ago I played straight WoW TBC to prepare for launch and ended up playing 26 hours or so although I cheated a bit by sleeping 2 hours. Think anyone who will try to play 2 days will just end up hitting their head to the desk. In the end, there are jobs which require to be awake for 12 hours and many of them require you to be standing/walking all shift. China should take care about those things not about games. If I die from gaming I definitely can consider myself lucky cause I died as a happy nerd xD Certain videogames like Stacraft depending how you play and where can be pure stress. This can lead to death, if you are under stress to long at one point your heart just stops pumping...An other point is probally the fact that the person probally was under a longer stress periode, where he didnt sleep / took to many energy drinks etc. | ||

Starting LAN games still looks to be completely broken, but we're down to 9 Chromium processes for the battle.net interface instead of 24. Unsure how much of the other broken stuff is still there. edit: chat autoscrolling is still broken as well B.net is also still broken not showing the status if a player is in the game, searching or just in chat. (everyone is "online") | ||

Just conjecture though, no real way of determining if that is true. But if one were to put actual effort into upgrading CEF at this point, I'm not sure why you would pick a version that is 2.5+ years old. I don't think that should have resulted in downgrading anything else to whatever they had then (and a number of the changes that broke SB are definitely "forward progress" type of changes and not reverts), but who really knows. At this point they've pushed, reverted, and re-pushed an update that breaks a number of things, with zero communication to even tell us why or who is doing this. edit: Also interesting is that they rolled back this patch *again* last night, but only for Asia. So we're stuck with this shit, but people in Korea are probably on the older (less shitty) patch. | ||
