But i would think you only open the lua file in notepad and find the old name lure and replace it with sharpened. At least this is what i will try in a moment.</p> <p>[edit] Just looked it up in the lua and it seems the latest version of Fishing Buddy allready has the Sharpened Fish Hook in it.

Although I have seen some addons cause problems like add more options to quest giver than there were quests. In this case backup all and delete them one by one to see which solves the problem </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/danger-of-deleting-wtf-and-cache-files#post-426 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 19:00:37 +0000 Longhunter 426@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>sweet how? i suck at this type of thing </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/danger-of-deleting-wtf-and-cache-files#post-403 Tue, 01 Apr 2008 16:38:45 +0000 Balazar 403@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>BTW, I was just reading in the comments on Fishing Buddy -<br /> <a href="http://wow.curse.com/downloads/details/1531/" rel="nofollow">http://wow.curse.com/downloads/details/1531/</a></p> <p>That it's possible to edit your FishingBuddy.lua to add in the sharpened hooks, so fishing buddy will apply them. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/danger-of-deleting-wtf-and-cache-files#post-398 Tue, 01 Apr 2008 04:01:12 +0000 Petre 398@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>The WTF folder stores all the saved variables files for all your addons. If you ever want to save them and delete the rest you can just pull the ones you want to save and then put them back. In this case you're looking for 'FishingBuddy.lua'.<br /> If you want to save the locations and settings for the tracking frame also save 'FB_TrackingFrame.lua'. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/danger-of-deleting-wtf-and-cache-files#post-394 Mon, 31 Mar 2008 21:15:03 +0000 Kylkiluut 394@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>Because I was having 'issues' with some alts, I deleted the wtf folder and my cache files. This was a 'good' thing because it solved my problem with some of my alts crashing when I loaded them.</p> <p>However... </p> <p>I lost all of my Fishing Buddy history. :(</p> <p>Not a disaster but certainly an inconvenience.</p> <p>Hmm... perhaps the files are still loaded in the 'recycled' bin but then I've already started 'new' data and I probably don't want to go to the trouble of merging them (if it is even possible).</p> <p>Anyway, fishers beware... </p>
