• What does GreenWall do?

This add-on replicates guild chat and achievement spam between multiple guilds.

The add-on's functionality is very close to LemonKing's Cross Guild Chat, but the management interface (or lack of one in GreenWall's case) is very different.

• Do I need to be a member of Alea Iacta Est to use it?

No, it was written to be guild-agnostic. While it addresses a specific need that we had, it was designed to work for any guild that's larger than the limit.

• If I'm a member of Alea Iacta Est, do I need to run it?

No, you don't. But guild chat will be very, very frustrating for you if you don't since you will only see about 1% of the complete conversations.

• How do I get it?

The latest version is available at the following locations.

• GitHub
• Curse

It is also mirrored in WoWMatrix, but we make no guarantees about how frequently WoWMatrix updates or the integrity of the files that it provides.

• WoWMatrix

You can also check out the latest version from the GitHub repository, if you are technically inclined and foolhardy enough to run pre-release code.

• You must have fewer than 10 custom channels configured in-game. You can see a listing of the custom channels by opening the "Social" window (bound to the "O" key) and selecting the "Chat" tab.
• You must be able to edit the Guild Information tab to configure GreenWall for the co-guild members.

1. Download the compressed distribution file.
2. Close World of Warcaft.
3. Extract the contents of the file and place them in the World of Warcraft AddOns directory.

• On Windows, C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns or C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns.
• On OSX, ~/Applications/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons.

4. Launch World of Warcraft.
5. Click the AddOns button on the character selection screen.
6. Enable the add-on for your character.

GreenWall was designed to minimize the amount of configuration necessary by most members. If your officers have set up the guild configuration correctly, you don't need to do anything to particiapte in the conversation between co-guilds.

However, there are a few options you may want to consider.

To access the user configuration screen:

1. Open the Game Menu by hitting the Esc key.
2. Click on the Interface button.
3. Select the AddOns tab.
4. Click on GreenWall in the sidebar.

You will be able to enable or disable the following options.

Show Co-Guild Tags

Show co-guild identifier in messages. Default: on

Show Co-Guild Achievement Announcements

Show achievements from other co-guilds. Default: off

Show Co-Guild Roster Announcements

Show guild join and leave messages from other co-guilds. Default: on

Show Co-Guild Rank Announcements

Bridge Officer Chat

Show bridge officer chat between the co-guilds. This only works for members who have privileges to view officer notes. Default: off

All commands must be prefixed with /greenwall or /gw.

As an example, the configuration option for co-guild tagging is tag. To turn it on, you would enter one of the following commands. In the command descriptions, optional arguments are in square brackets and alternatives are separated by the pipe character.

/greenwall tag on
/gw tag on
