PitBull: New UnitFrame Addon - Page 4

Aggrippa · 04/05/07, 6:17 AM

No experience with Aguf but tried it anyway last night for a Kara run.

Seems good and a better replacement for X-perl but it's still pretty much buggy and at development stage. Portraits are all wrong, configuration options went all crazy on me, text wasnt really configurable, debuffs were stacking onto each other with wrong icons, green frames were left after buff cleared, etc. Promising, but still reserved for the early adopters crowd.

This was my impression last night as well. I had to change back to aguf since the party pet frames didn't hide and messed up my screen (as well as buffs not clearing and some other minory disturbances). But I will keep watching this mod, looks very promising indeed.

I like and dislike this mod. I liked it until it started to pop up party targets (which I have had hidden) every time party composition changed. And then the crash /shudder.

Mod is great looking but it still needs some tweaking, also predicted heals did not work for me.

It needs a /command based configuration method, or else a GUI for it. Doing everything with dropdown menus sucks, especially since there's no global methods (i.e. set ALL portraits to class/2D/3D).

Other than that, I liked it for soloing, have to try it out in a group some time soon.

There are some global functions I think, there's an overall pitbull menu you get if you do /pitbull

The /pitbull is just the dropdown; I want /pitbull player portrait class and the like. Command line for life and all that.

The global functions aren't what I was asking for; I want a way to globally set an attribute for all frames, the global functions available are just things that affect all frames (overall scale, config mode, etc.)

That's what was doing it all night! I was trying to trace down what was causing my hidden raid frames to pop up randomly -just for my character-, all night, and I never made the connection until this morning.

Also, until I did a /console reloadui, when I had it unchecked the 'Hide Party Frames While In Raid' option, it was showing null target windows when I wasn't actively holding a target, as well as null focus, and focus target frames. Just a weird glitch I ran into. Once I reloaded, it all went back to normal.

This is best reported in the wowace thread linked to in the first post, people will look into it pretty quickly.

I've made my feedback post on their forums I hope some of that stuff gets looked into

Do they allow you to move your Combo Points? From my brief scanning i didn't see anything that said you could and That has always been one of my biggest gripes with AGUF

Go forth and obtain:

Not quite command line, but no dropdowns

HAHA. You just beat me to it. I was about post response to my question on their forums to here.

That mod looks good at least dropdown menu won't go poof.

It's very cool (and I'll definitely be replacing DC with it), but as far as I can tell it uses the same method as Deucecommander to generate its menus - it examines the AceConsole data set, which only works for...

Mods that have commandline commands. :/

edit: Hm. Well, it seems to work with Niagara, so either Pitbull updated or Niagara pulls differently than Deuce.

yes, alt + right-click the target frame
layout settings -> combo points -> side -> left right top bottom
and you can change the dots to bar

I have switched to these permanently over ag_UF. It seems most of the major buggy issues have been worked out with the Auras and such.
