Thread: Hax.lua?

I got disconnected twice from blizz servers saying something about hax.lua and invalid function, just wondering if anyones come across this or rather knows what it means. Maybe its a plugin deal, a CC deal or just a new way blizz is looking for crap. Next time it happens ill make sure to try get the whole message, as i wasnt able to before my trigger fingers hit enter.

I attached my log. Maybe its needed. Though i changed a couple of folder names in there to keep my name out of it(for you that complained that you dont wanna post a log for that reason notepad++ is your friend.

Anyways thanks for any help given.

What cc are you using? These are some weird entries.

Depending on your CC it will have a LUA call. When making an LUA call you (depends) have to specify a file name, as HB does not need to provide this file name we just enter a random name. Eg..

tmpSoulShardCount = Convert.ToInt32(Lua.LuaGetReturnValue("return GetItemCount(\"Soul Shard\")", "hax.lua")[0]);

So the message you are getting is because there is some small error in the LUA request being made. Its nothing to worry about really.

"Stabby Stabby - A Rogue CC: By Fpsware AKA Fleecy" is what im using, Though i do got a bunch of other cc's your lock one, a couple from fpsware and mords too. I did see that having other cc's might pertain to issues but never ran into one so just let it be.

The Toon is a NE Rogue, lvl 15. I do have a GB session running in the background as well though i doubt that has any importance on the matter above.

I wasnt fully watching the toon when it happened as it was on my other screen but from what i could tell i was just standing there not moving and then it disconnected and gave me a pop up on the login screen in red letters like an error in game.

* Ah that makes a little sense to me, thanks fpsware

the reason you get disconnected is because wow has set limits to how many and how fast macros and lua can be called, so if there's some lag, while your cc is say looking for soul shards, it might trigger the disconnect. its nothing to really worry about.

That would make sense as i was laggin a bit at the moment, well for a good 10-15 mins.

Thank you guys for the fast responses on this deal here.

Hmm, I didn't know this. Time to add a limit on the number of LUA calls I do per second.

I'm aware of this. But I have quite a few LUA calls and don't worry about it. When something goes wrong, like above, thats when you you get disconnected.
