Being an old X-perl user i recently switched to pitbull.

What i'd like to do is:

- I'd like to get all my buffs/debuffs above the bars instead of below.
- I'd like to be able to remove information from my focus bar, player bar and target's target bar in general eg. class, lvl etc. to make it even more clean. But these functions should remain on my target bar.
- Make sure i can only watch buffs/debuffs on my target, and not have it on my focus, player and target's target bars.

Thanks in advance! And sorry if i asked something that was written allready, 40 pages of questions -.-

# of people on my target?

I never used Pitbull 3, but just made the switch to Pitbull 4 yesterday. I have tweaked most of the settings and I am very pleased with this addon. However, there was one function in xperl that I cannot find; a way to view how many are on my target.

Xperl gave me a box that showed me what healers had me targetted and the names of the people on my target. Xperl also had the option to put a little number in a box on your target to display how many people were targetting that unit. I found this very helpful when tanking.

Is this function supported by P4? If not, would someone please suggest a light weight addon?


I'm also trying to find a way to pop up only debuffs I can cleanse (pld) on my party members. But I think I found a post in this thread that will cover that, you guys are awesome.

Edit: Problem solved. Had the darn "click-through" option selected. Guess it wasnt so default after all =)

-----------------------
Havent seen anyone else have this problem so I must be missing it but currently with a pretty default pitbull4 setup, when I hover over buffs or debuffs in any unitframe, I'm not able to read the icon - there is an absence of text. I dont always know what each buff or debuff icon is so would love to be able to read a text description of it.

I've looked all over the Aura module section and do not see anything about this.

Anyone have any ideas on this? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Could someone lend me some help regarding aura filtering in PB4?

I'm trying to set up a filter that would show dispellable by me debuffs on friendly targets and my debuffs on hostile targets. Is this possible at all, I couldn't really make out any remarkable about this.

I have buffs shown on my Target and not myself since i use Elkano's. Since i have my unit frame and my target unit frame lower on the screen is there a way to have Buffs/De-buffs on my Target, and not on my toon's frame? That is really the only gripe i have atm.

Tried making 2 different layouts? One for your player frame, one for your target frame?

By the way, Elkano's BuffBars can show (de)buffs for your target and filter for yours only or via white/black-lists. Which would remove the need to use PitbBull's. Just make a new EBB group and set it to target (and the usual other settings).

Beware of Pitbull4 v4.0.0beta4.

I can't be sure of the cause, but I believe the raid frames combined with certain modules seem to be killer on CPU, causing hiccups (freezing for 1 second every once every 5-15 seconds). Since I was suffering from poor frames with mods active, I did a CPU profile while running raid frames to see how bad it could get:

AV, actively PvPing away from the main raid group: http://i29.tinypic.com/k54qch.jpg

1200 secs worth of profiling done while doing Heroic UP: http://i27.tinypic.com/154j52w.jpg

I didn't really search through the various Pitbull posts to see if it was a known problem, but I'm definitely going to leave raid frames disabled. It's a huge difference in performance from PB3, which I used a similar perfect raid style with. Prior versions of PB4 before 3.2 also performed much better than it currently is.

Hello

Is it possible to hack pitbull in any way to display the sanity of your raid members in a bar / large picture?

We are working on Yogg+1/+0 soon, and need to get the tools in place.

Thanks.

You can use luatext to display the stacksize of sanity for each raidmember. Check this post: LuaTexts - The new DogTags

You need to tweak the luatext a bit but basically everything is in Hotans code. If you can not get it run I´ll help you out.

I did this as a drycode, but I wanted to post something, since I don't think there are many examples of using the count aspect of UnitAura().
You could change the color changing threshold to a static step function, or get rid it entirely.
local i = 1
while true do
 local name,_,count = UnitAura(unit,i,"HARMFUL")
 if not name then
   break
 elseif name == "Sanity" then
  local r=2.55*(100-count)
  local g=2.55*count
  return "|cff%02x%02x00%d|r",r,g,count
 end
 i=i+1
end

correlation =/= causation

I'm using Pitbull4 and set everything up fine. Only problem is, I saw a layout of Pitbull on a ui compilation(caithUI) and want to use that layout but I don't want to mess up my other settings. I've tried to amend my settings, but I can't get it just right.
Is it as easy as just copying the lua file or are there more tweaking involved?

Every hint or guide appreciated (Apart from this thread, cos I've already looked at it and found some other nice things to do)



Edit: Ended up reading guides on Pitbull and tweaking with the config. Apparently there is a clean Default panel which you can add in addition to the health, power, mana bars and that pretty much made it (didn't know that before).

Is there a way in PitBull (or perhaps a PitBull module) to dynamically change the layout assigned to a unit based on some condition? Such a feature would enable, for example, the display format of the auras on the target frame to change depending on whether the target is hostile or friendly.

If PitBull can't do this, is there another addon that can?

This is possible with Pitbull4 under Modules > Aura > Aura filter editor > Advanced, if I understand your question correctly. It takes a bit trial and error to grasp the concept of how those filters work, but it is possible to change what kind of auras are shown, depending on whether the untiframe shows the player, and enemy, a friend, or a pet for example.

Interesting feature, but not quite what I was looking for. Specifically, I want more buffs to be displayed if the target is friendly and more debuffs to be displayed if the target is hostile.
