[Leesa]

Tried to downlaod at 4am then decided to go to bed.  When I got up it was fully working.  Strange things these pcs are.  Just been respecing now leesa has no money.

[sheepy]

[Knabbel]

Been trying to download patch. For some odd reason it says I don't have enough disk space. I mean is patch like 50GB or something? My pc says it has 45GB free to put whatever I want on to it.

This counts for the drive where on WoW is installed....

1st one is free, until you fek it up or want to try all the new talent trees. Ive got 150g set aside just for that purpose

This is shiat... Ive got 3 characters I have to figure out a new build for!
Could get expensive!!

[sheepy]

its simple for me i know how I wanna spec my warrior as the only thing I really do on my main is raid, so prot specced.
 
Priest is shadow, simple. use talents to get down to shadow form and then look at what else I want. (lvl 45)
 
Mage is frost. get target frozen in place as much as i can. (lvl 35)
 
hunter (pew pew pew arrarz) lvl 21
 
 
main problem for me is going to be getting my UI sorted in time for the raid with the nessacery mods

Yes I only have one drive.  I broke my over harddrive whilst my pc was being shipped to Germany so to make live simple I just now have the classic C drive

If you are experiencing LAG and loss of FPS after 2.0.1 try this:

Create a WDB folder inside your Cache folder, and then enGB folder \World of Warcraft\Cache\WDB\enGB.
Your enGB folder will get populated with:

creaturecache.wdb
 gameobjectcache.wdb
 itemcache.wdb
 itemnamecache.wdb
 itemtextcache.wdb
 npccache.wdb
 pagetextcache.wdb
 questcache.wdb
 wowcache.wdb

If this is not happening check World of Warcraft\Data if inside there you find an empty WBD folder just delete that.

more explained thingy:.

Dear Blizzard and Readers,

This post points out that after patch 2.0, without corrective action on the user's part, the client doesn't cache WDB files anymore. It explains how to solve the problem and why it's important to solve it.

Symptom

When logging in, every time, a lot of the items placed on the action bars are red question marks for a few seconds. Also, when opening a crafting profession's window for the first time, delay is observed in loading the icon for items and list of ingredients. Other symptoms that indicate that the client is not performing caching and has to query the server for data with each login session.

Explanation and Solution

The old WDB folder is now gone with patch 2.0. The client is supposed to cache data in the "World of Warcraft\Cache\WDB\" folder, where depends on your client language. It's enGB for EU English players. However, during a standard installation and patching scenario, only "World of Warcraft\Cache" folder gets created, and the client doesn't automatically create its subfolders. This means that the client never saves cache files.

To force WoW to start saving cache files, manually create a WDB subfolder in Cache, i.e. make sure that a folder named "World of Warcraft\Cache\WDB" exists. The client will take care of the rest, create the locale specific subfolder and start saving files.

Why this is important

For starters, this improves the game experience of the end-user. However, more importantly, with so many players, all the clients querying the server for information that was supposed to be cached could lead to additional load on the servers. Only Blizzard knows the significance or fraction of this additional load, but it's important that we as users do everything we can to reduce load on the servers.

Edit: It appears that this may be an issue only on the Windows client and not Mac
