Client Wotlk classic

This topic is not new but I have actually seen many projects that try to make a classi woltk client that works, but for the moment they have only been amateurs without any server, the truth is to be honest I don't know how a 32-bit client with an optimization Insistant they can continue with that, we already saw how ****** proxy was not the best but at least it served something to have a gaming experience with better addons and more current hardware compatibility. Really having horrible fps, some archaic addons damage the experience, now the servers have to offer to revitalize their client, many do it, because it is requested Because honestly, many of us have progress that we do not want to start over and we like the server and we wonder about the possibility, even if the client is not perfect because it will have errors, anyway, if the possibility exists it would be excellent, and I also do not want an answer that it is a lot of work is impossible and all that because other servers did it in different expansions but not woltk? On top of that they also say that the woltk classic has errors, it must be that the 32bit one is perfect, it's impeccable, that client, apart from being old, also has many errors...

Well, aside from the technical difficulty of adding support, there's also the issue of it being completely incompatible with part of the anticheat system and any request that did make it through would flag you with a failed integrity check. The proxy only worked on servers that have it disabled.

I mean you are telling me that it is possible but that anti cheating is the problem you say

We're not disabling the anticheat for anyone using a specific client and adding support isn't that simple since the new client itself lacks all of the associated code.

Problem is they probably need to rework or probably write a new code for anti cheat which is most likely a waste of time. I kinda have a feeling that most of you think its copy-paste the code and it will work perfectly, meanwhile you couldnt write a simple code by yourself. Simple google search yields this

"Classic client uses different client-server communication compared to 3.3.5, you would have to reverse engineer it and adapt it for current emulators. I don't know if anyone wants to commit to such project."

But then why are there several servers that are implementing their classic clients? I mean, Warmane doesn't have enough equipment for that, as I said, there are servers that in a few months will even release a kingdom with a cataclysm classic client...

We have an ongoing development project called Onyxia and we're not disabling the anticheat, like these other servers, to support a 2nd client.

Another project is planning to utilize the WOTLK and Cataclysm Classic clients.

The 3.3.5 client is outdated, lacks optimization, and causes significant slowdowns in city areas.

If Warmane is unable or unwilling to allocate time to merge to the Classic client, other developers may recognize the opportunity to attract players by offering modern addons compatibility and improved performance without the persistent slowdowns.

I rather loose all the Warmane's features and get a smoother experience.

I respect Warmane's team POV but will simply move forward.

Go brother, nobody is gonna miss you, enjoy there with 100 other players. If you are willing to cover the costs, pay devs and help Warmane go ahead. Otherwise, you will never see classic client here. For me personally game works pretty fine, except Dalaran which was laggy aswell on retail, raids are working perfectly fine for me. Minimal difference in performance.

Never experienced any slowdowns in any city, use laa and dont play on a toaster?
Also those "projects" die within a year

I played WOTLK Classic (the new release I mean) and have to say 3.3.5a warmane is working better than the official desk launcher from Blizz. Too many times game didnt launch properly until couple of mins for some reason, and after some updates UI was ultra bugged, you can check official forums.

So, imagine when Warmane is working better. And words said from a guy that played official for +10 years including Classic Versions, and only playing Warmane since couple of months.

Tell me how is it possible for an RTX 4060 to go at 40 fps in Dalaran? I mean, what a terrible optimization, who uses 32 bit nowadays? I also suggested the classic client because I just saw a man who planned to make a server With the classic client I abandoned the project because I was the only one and I did it as a hobby, I even got to try it and everything, but if that man could do it by himself, can't a server? Besides, it's not That the woltk classic client is 3 days old, well, I could have considered it sooner but hey, if you don't do it, but that lengthens the useful life of the game itself...

"Never experienced any slowdowns in any city"
Nice BS then make us a video with your FPS in Dalaran at peak hour.
"Also those "projects" die within a year"
Yep that's why it still have over 2k "real" players, i rather have a small community with a decent client !
"use laa and dont play on a toaster?"
Another BS because you perfectly know it doesn't affect 3.3.5 client, 7800x3D with a 4070 is a toaster ? Good one !

"Tell me how is it possible for an RTX 4060 to go at 40 fps in Dalaran? I mean, what a terrible optimization, who uses 32 bit nowadays?

He is back at work after seeing the demand but a one man project is gonna take forever, especially if you want decent scripting.
So far the deadmines were truly feeling good so i'll be curious to see what he'll manage to pull out.

Just lock this topic already, both classic and 3.3.5 client are performing poorly in Dalaran, both clients are running smoothly in raids, at least for me. If you have junk PC, classic client wont magically be better for you. Both are working the same without addons, while leveling up, doing quests etc. Stop suggesting this because you are experiencing placebo effect and nothing else.
