New Lua Function: SetQuestFeatherColor

[Jabantiz]

One of my wild tangents but implemented the ability to change the feather color above the quest givers head. This is meant to be used in the Init function of quest scripts and will only work for newer clients that support the colored feathers.

Code: Select all

function Init(Quest)
    -- Make the quest feather green
    SetQuestFeatherColor(Quest, 2)
end

Valid ID's are:

1 - purple

2 - green

3 - blue

Leaving this command out or setting it to any other value will show the normal feather.

You know, normally I'd be cracking my whip about staying on task... but you manage to poop these things out so fast, I doubt it matters much plus, it's a good distraction to keep you from going insane.

This no longer seems to work on the npc's that it needs to, did some tests and on a mob it worked fine but on an actual quest giver it doesn't, it seems to make the feather vanish in most cases. No clue why this stopped working and what made it stop working.

Nice work! i guess its color coded for different quest? normal, craft, group and raid or whatever?

Very nice tho!

Figured it out and should once again work properly, updated the DB with the code and took a screen shot as proof

The issue is there was a version check expecting the client version, however the version it was checking against was the packet version which ended up being below the the check causing it to not work (wanted >= 1193 struct version was 1188). I just dropped the check to 1188, not sure when these feathers were introduced but doubt any one will ever connect with 1188 so there should be no problems.

Yea at some point they became color coded, blue is for repeatable, green for trade skill, and purple I think is for heritage.
