StrangeWill saidWhat command are you typing?
You're using /trivia load 1
Right?
I noticed that I didn't actually check the input for this command, so if you use say "one" it will provide the same error. I'll fix this in the next version.

If you can give me the error or any messages encountered it will help greatly.

StrangeWill saidWe're looking at a couple weeks MAX. I have the GUI almost done, and been completely void of errors. I however want to look into implementing the overall scoreboard in a friendly way that will prevent spam reporting issues, along with the !score whisper command for players.
Also I got about two minor bugs, along with the issue with Ziz, mainly it's the last thing that's delaying this.

Kindar saidchanging the channel of the bot is /trivia setting channel <channel>
I'm very happy to hear that 2.4.4 has support for custom channels. I am curious to know when that version might be released.
I absolutely love this mod, its great for anytime me or my friends are bored, we just turn it on and play for hours... eventually we get question repeats, but as there is no "reshuffle" option anymore, I can only assume that its because we have done it so much.
Being a beginner programmer myself, I know how much work goes into these mod's and I appreciate how much effort you've ended up putting in, as I have been in similar circumstances with course projects!
so I look forward to a release with a GUI and access to custom channels!

StrangeWill saidI figure 2.4.4 may be released after I get the GUI rolled out, I'm removing 99% of the messy XML format for nice logical LUA code to create the interface, so writing it looks cleaner and overall file size is smaller, along with more control with objects and better object naming.
However, I'm still heavily weighing on releasing this under a different project after all the fuss coming from people who just sit as project managers and don't actually do anything, and being as I re-wrote it from the ground up 100% myself.
Also the questions shouldn't be repeating themselves, so I'll need to check the code on that. It should finish an entire database of questions before repeating any. If anything it's two lines of code to create a /trivia reshuffle command that works, so I'll add it back in anyway along with refining the question lineup.

Kindar saidwell, i didn't mean that it plays the same question in one game, we play it like every few days, so they come back around from time to time. And thanks for the quick response!

StrangeWill saidOh okay thanks for clearing that up. Yeah you are unlikely to run ~1000 questions a game, so I can see where reshuffling can help a lot, I'll also see about tweaking the shuffling algorithm to make it even more random if needed.
Actually I may just look at storing the order so that it must run through all 1000 questions before using the same list again.

StrangeWill saidFinally back online again, and cracking out the channel issues and working on the GUI. :)
Never touching an ASUS motherboard as long as I live, I've been without a desktop for over a month due to defective motherboards from ASUS. =\, M2N board, stay way the hell away from it.
Of course I can always drop development position, but do expect to see a new TriviaBot software come out under a different name. ;P
After all, you're free to download pre-my versions of Triviabot. Which work worse and had no support, where as mine have support as long as I can get online. =\
As of 2.4.4, I got full channel support for all channels and in-game default channels, auto-channel joining (if not in channel), and fixed a couple tiny bugs with printing nil data.
I got the GUI half way written so far, though I'm questioning whether I'll be staying on the TriviaBot team, being as it's 99% my code now that I've rewritten it, I may be taking it somewhere else. It kind of bugs me that I have a major computer issue, and not only is there no attempt to contact me from the team, but I'm practically kicked out when I get back, with a bunch of whining from the development team which have absolutely no experience in programming at all.

KeeZ saidZiz, I myself have been thinking about making a Trivia Bot, when a guildie informed me that such a bot had already been made, yet what he showed me lacked some functionality I was thinking about having. If you don't mind I can take a look at your mod and see if I can modify it or something like that. Don't know what the nightmare part of the mod currently is, but would be nice if you explained what's wrong :)

Ironshirt32 saidSorry about the last 2 posts, it was because I downloaded this mod from www.wowui.com and was redirected here. I think this version works properly but it is still confusing to use.
I googled trivia bot and got this link
http://wowui.worldofwar.net/?p=mod&m=3266 (don't download from there)
To get WoW questions type
/trivia load 3
