I have never used GEM and am trying to get it going. I have 2.08 and tried to get it going but got no where just as tktneal says.

I'm told that there's supposed to be a little bubble near the mini-map to get GEM going.

Also my guildies are telling me they're on version 2.28 whereas this is 2.08.

Could someone please alleviate the confusion or update this mod's files as appropriate? Thanks.

Ok I'm obviously a noob, because I cannot seem to get GEM to install properly. I extracted to c:\worldofwarcraft\interfaces\addons\... A folder "guildeventmanager2" was created with what appears to be all the needed files. I launched WoW... no ability to get to GEM.... tried \gem help , looked for any indication where I need to enable add ons.... nothing... what am I doing wrong?

I am joined in 3 channels with GEM. Is there a way to show who is on in the channels other than the default channel?

Hi,

KiKi help, soon as I loaded the new patch 1.9. GEM spams in my general chat like crazy. It has its own channel where it spams nonsense of other users in the realm.

I tried to remove it but same, I tried to re install again, says out of date.

Is there any new verisons or how can I resolve the problem?

Hum, there was something missing in my ignore code : the removal of local event, so it will not be broadcasted anymore. It's now fixed, and if everybody ignores the event, it will not be sent to the channel.

I've 2/3 more things to fix today, and I'll release a fix for that, and the "Delete" leader function bug ^^

Hey, Kiki, we've been having a semi-weird issue with a user who had an older version of GEM (PreRC93) joining our main events channel and bringing older events from the previous channel to ours. Some of these events expire in 2008, and the owner just doesn't really exist in our realm .. Is there a way to get rid of these old events? Ignoring them just causes the events to be hidden, but the spam still exists. Our member number is pretty significant, and some of the users with lesser machines/network connections are experiencing heavy lag problems until they disable GEM .. any idea how to clear out these ancient, immortal events?

MY PC still has the file. I just had it happen AGAIN. I lost power to my PC and the Onyxia raid I had just put up (and had about 20+ members sign up for) is missing. I can't see it but everyone else can. Now I am getting an error everytime someone signs up and yet I literally can't see the event. I can't invite people, I can't make anyone a leader, I can't do anything.

The same thing happened last week and I have not "lost" the original .xml file.

How do I used an external application to sync my .xml file?

Nice Addon Kiki.

One question thought ;)
I created a new event and went offline. Other players were unable to see my event unless the were online at the same time as I was.

Looks like I have to broadcast my event while online for other players to receive it.
Is there something wrong with my setup?
Or is it simply not possible to store created events in the channel?

Kiki, it is really coming along, but I've got a problem:

If I join another zone's LFG channel, despite what I have setup for the GEM channel, it always sends its messages to the LFG channel.

Needless to say this ins't popular with the thousands of players also in that channel.

Let me know if there's some further info I need to give you. I am using RC932

Sorry, but this will not be supported, except by using an external application to synchronise your Saved file.

Not all datas concerning an event are sent when you create/update an event as a leader, other people are missing so many important stuff (that I cannot send to the channel, for the sake of every player connected), that can not be retrieve except from the leader's saved file.

Right now (besides my busy IRL those weeks), I'm finishing the code for v2.0 release, after that I'll see that alternative I can provide

I made an event with my PC and when I log on with my laptop, it doesn't show my event to myself but everyone else can see it.

Kiki

the messages for people joining and leaving is a PITA... Please either get rid of it or make it an option. I have over 100 people using this addon and it is spamming my general tab.

Hello, great mod Kiki. I was wondering something. I am in a reasonably large guild that also belongs to an alliance. I would like to have private in guild run events on the calander that other allliance members do not see and also have an alliance wide events. Is that possible somehow ? Perhaps by having two channels set up ?
