PitBull: New UnitFrame Addon - Page 10

Latest version of Pitbull is misbehaving big time. Unit frames for Player, Target and Party are being faded out by spell icons. It is really annoying.

I got the exact same problem, really annoying. Was gonna try updating pitbull during the raid to see if it was gone, but if you say the latest version still does it, it won't matter. :\

For me it was fixed when I went with a different layout -- aBF I think? Seerah definitely produced problems for me (which is unfortunate because that's the layout I want.) I keep updating and hoping it'll be fixed.

Turning off buff/debuff display also solves the problem (although introduces the problem of not having buff/debuff display.)

) but it did not appear. However it was loaded and a /pb resume or so activated it finally.

(Note you can suspend / resume many ace2 addons on the fly)

Definitly a minor issue that could be fixed is its load-behavior. Since I use DeuceCommander, I don't need an additional icon in the Fubar and like to deactivate the FuBar part (guess I can rip it out myself but should be configurable, imho)

I'm still having an issue. It did it again today I did a fresh install. Currently I disabled them, logged out, Deleted them out of my WTF Folder the Pitbull.lua files and even the interface files. Emptied recycling bin and still there was no luck. All the /pb, /pitbull, and anything else I could find didn't work at getting me an icon. Are there any other files I need to download for this to work easier?

Edit: Solved, what you have to do is do this script command:
/script PitBull:ToggleActive(true)
For future reference.

Hope someone fixes it fast - I just recommended it to a lot of people in my guild :/

Still using agUF, Pitbull sounds interesting but I think i'll wait a bit longer for all the bugs to be ironed out. Anyone test it in 2.1 and see if its compatible?

The mouse-locks-to-frame bug I think is just a general bug in either frame mods or Blizzard code, it happens to me occasionally with aguf and sws and many other things. I just do a /console reload and it fixes itself.

These look very promising. I recently uninstalled AG because of it randomly reseting on me, not showing party members, and haven't found a replacement since. Will post my feedback whenever the servers come up.

I picked this up last night and have been tweaking on it a little. I did however originally try to download it with wowaceupdater and it said there were no public versions available. Is this a problem with my updater configuration or is it because the mod is in development?

Just thought I'd add some additional praise for one of the newer releases of PitBull--the addition of not only a 5-second rule pulse along a mana bar (and energy ticker/pulse!) but the addition of an in-form mini-mana bar as well (something I'd given up since DruidBar broke a while back).

I've had some of the same problems others have described. Older versions of PitBull work, but after updating to the most recent a few nights ago things like the EnergySpark complain if I enable them. A few of the issues were fixed by downloading and updating the dependency libraries by hand (DogTag for example), but this is fairly tedious.

Great unit frames tho, I can definitely live with a few annoyances here and there for all the utility and functionality these provide.

Seems things are back to normal, performed a full update using WowAce. Pitbull is now a package rather than a normal addon, should be in the top section of your updater. The plugins for it are in the usual alphabetical place.
Understandably for a new addon, it's getting updated pretty rapidly - I actually did 2 updates and got a new version each time.

Dotts · 05/16/07, 10:22 AM

I've had my buffs / debuffs lost for 2 weeks now.
Hope it gets fixed soon or someone tells me what I might be doing wrong. I've played with everything in the config I could find.

Daboran · 05/16/07, 10:46 AM

Do you get the buff/debuff placeholders in config mode? If not the likelihood is that you disabled them somewhere. Try also changing the positions/size etc.

One thing to note if you are only missing either buffs or debuffs. If you position them in the same place and do not split them in the options they both overwrite each other so you will only see one of the two.

I had problems last night with some of my buffs not showing. I'd get mark of the wild to show on everyone, and thorns, but I couldn't get rejuv, regrowth, and lifebloom to all show at the same time. Usually only 1 of the 3 would produce a buff icon (at random), but occasionally I'd get 2 or none. It was really odd. I've only had the texture glitch across the main frame once, and a simple /reloadui fixed it.

The version I updated from controlled the buffs fine, but the spark (moving line for 5 second rule / energy) would give me errors when shifting out of cat form. It used to have a continual spark so even if you had full energy you would know when your next tick would be. In cat form, at least, they seem to have gotten rid of the continual spark, and it now only shows up for me until I reach full energy. I'm guessing that's how they fixed the error messages though.

Make sure to change max buffs to 40, even if its on smart it still has the buffs then hides the ones that you don't put up.
