Custom Breaking News

Post by Henhouse »

So today I decided I was gonna track down the server address that the Breaking News on WoW comes from. I know the launchers are at launcher.worldofwarcraft.com and wow-europe.com. But I wasn't sure where the US one was since it was different that the Europe server.

I finally found it and was playing around with it a little bit. I got the idea since SF is down, wouldn't it be nice to have a way to provide updates to players. Well I doubt I would be able to get 5/40 people to even do this, since it requires the editing of your hosts file. (Hosts file allows you to point addresses to other servers. Like I could make google.com smolderforge.com, but only client-side.)

Well, let me know what you guys think. I can actually edit the WoW Launcher too lol.
