About _Corpse

_Corpse tells you the faction, online status, and other information about corpses you see.  That is, when you mouse over a corpse (after the player releases spirit), _Corpse automatically queries the server about who owns the body and automatically colors and fills out its tooltip like a regular living unit.

How It Works

This mod is a spiritual successor to CorpseInfo, however it is significantly faster and less prone to error because it uses the friends list rather than “/who” queries.  Not only that, but it's always accurate about the target's faction, and can see when enemies are online.

In battlegrounds, _Corpse uses the scoreboard data directly to instantly give you class and faction information.

Why Use _Corpse?

It can help you decide if a corpse is worth resurrecting, because it shows online/offline status and <AFK> flags.  Wondering if a dead enemy is still online and worth camping?  This is your mod.  It has no configuration; just install it and mouse over some corpses.

    I'd like to suggest implementing option to toggle between "old" and "new" methods: toggle between getting information via /who, and via friends list.
  • #23
    Is there any way to get info about the PvP-Status of a corpse? I sometimes stumble upon corpses and try to resurect them... Just to find out they were PvP-Flagged... And so am I... -.-
  • #24
    I don't think so. :( The only info available for corpses is what you see in your friends list.
  • #16
    I could notice in some cases, that players of my faction are added to my contact-list, while I move my cursor over their dead bodies. I therefore assume that it is the result of _Corpse.
    It's getting a little annoying lately to delete these unwanted contacts, so I'm posting this here. I play with the German client on live servers using _Corpse 4.0.0.1.
  • #17
    I've heard reports of this happening before, but I never found out why it happens and never saw it for myself. Do you happen to use any friend list synchronizing mods? When this was reported before, those types of mods seemed to conflict with _Corpse. If you can live without it, try turning off your friends synchronizer for a while to see if _Corpse stops filling your friends list up.
  • #18
    Most of my UI-mods are raid-related and I would be surprised to hear that they affect the contact-list. I definitely don't have any UI-mod that would call itself "friend list synchronizer" or something like that.
  • #19
    The only UI-mod that actually does affect my contact list in some way would be CT_Core, which among other things allows to add notes to contacts on the list. It doesn't add any new contacts, though.
  • #20
    Well I spent some time testing this out and I've learned a few things:

    1. Blizzard made it impossible to see your alts' corpses (Dang!)
    2. CT_Core is fine.
    3. It seems like logging off just as you mouse over a corpse causes that corpse to stick in your friends list. I don't think there's any way to fix this within _Corpse.

    There might be other ways to cause it, but they must be pretty rare.
  • #21
    I've added updated german localization on curseforge (Noctum seems to use german localization to). This worked for me on one allied corpse. (could reproduce the problem before and traced it back to the localization)
    Blizz seems to have changed localization of "friends" for german.
  • #22
    Woops, I completely missed when he said that! Version 4.0.0.2 should work properly on German, French, and Traditional Chinese clients now.
  • #7
    Don't work on RU servers.

    Could you please run this command?

    /run print( "[["..tostring( select( 2, GetAchievementInfo( 6 ) ):match( "([^%s%p%d%c]+)" ) ).."]]" )

    Does it print out "[[Достигните]]"?
  • #9
    This command displays: [[й]]

    Thanks for running that test. It seems to have worked, so the problem must be something else.

    What part of _Corpse doesn't work? Do you get an error, or does it just do nothing? A screenshot might help too if _Corpse isn't causing errors.
  • #11
    No error, when the cursor to the corpse in the tooltip only the name of the character, everything looks like an addon is not loaded.
