Classic Era Updated to Version 1.14.0

The confusion comes from why did addons break; the Classic Era API hasn’t changed in 14 years.

So the question is: What changed?

Fixing addons i maintain is fine, but what could have possibly changed?

• did they port the TBC api back to vanilla?
• did they port the retail shadowlands api back to vanilla?
• what is Blizzard’s long-term vision for addons in classic era?
• Should the classic addons be able to rely on the classic API?
• is there a long-term goal to move all “classic” versions (tbc, classic era) to the “current” retail API?
• will the vanilla API change again when classic Wrath comes out?

I need to have some direction; so i know what to be aiming for.

Why does this even affect your gameplay experience?

The only thing that should concern you is a healthy realm population because that is what makes or break an MMO like World of Warcraft Vanilla.

Also, post on your classic toon.

Why does this even affect your gameplay experience?

Because of the errors, and then the addon not functioning.

Will you please consider reverting this patch until you fix all the stuff that broke?

Thanks a lot for the tip! It really is working!

Upon updating on Tuesday, I entered the game. All I could see was a black screen and my characters names on the right. After waiting several days to see what happened, I have been ignored. The game no longer works on my PC. It just does not work. Why would you update the system requirements on a 17 year old game and not say anything? Am I the only one this has affected?
I would wait for a reply, but I already canceled my account and deleted the game. Your customer service is trash, and I hope all the employees involved in that massive lawsuit dismantle this company piece by piece.

this is the worst week of my life

[Abelas-aegwynn]

My game is completely unplayable since the update on Tuesday. My computer was only able to play Classic WoW to begin with, but if this isn’t fixed next Tuesday I would have no choice but to sadly unsub, and I really don’t want to do that. Please help!

[Monteverdi-deviate-delight]

Worst change so far, by far.

[Seventynine-grobbulus]

So wait, in our Classic Era servers. You know the static ones? 1.14 introduced the same garbage in BC all the PC crap, and apparently took aggressive stance from pets as well? Well what part of ERA is still ERA? Why did i pay $15 for it? TO STAY THE SAME. It is the only version on my comp, not sure for much longer, You all really suck.

[Lorynd-myzrael]

I’m still seeing Aggressive stance on my pets. Not sure what you mean by PC crap though. I just wish my addons would get updated so I can actually play Era.

Wow I had no idea that this is still an issue for addon developers today as of 2023
