Does anyone know a good name plate replacement for aloft?

It seems to spew out error messages nonstop in my setup.

Did you try running an update?

I'm running it just fine. It might be a conflict with old libraries between Aloft and another mod or just simply a funky version.

I'm looking for a way to add tracking of all the numbers from the new Currency pane to a FuBar plugin.

Finding the player's arena points, honor, and current gold isn't a problem, but what API calls do you need to use to gather information like 10 and 25 man emblems, Dalaran Cooking Awards, etc?

That will filter to only show your buffs, including Amp Magic and anything else you can cast.

This has been bugging me for a few weeks now. I ran an update of AGUF (AG_Unitframes) and now, current health based coloration of the bars is always on. If I am at 50% health, my bar is yellow, not whatever color I set.

Is there a way to disable this through LUA or something else? I have togged every option in the config window and have satisfied myself that it is not one of them.

Does anyone know what modification is required in Bartender4 in order for it to use my custom tooltip borders? My other addons like Buffalo and MonkeyQuest are automatically using it but not Bartender4. I am referring to the bar border.

I opened up Bar.lua and saw the following:

bgFile = "Interface\\Tooltips\\UI-Tooltip-Background",
tile = true,
tileSize = 16,
edgeFile = "Interface\\Tooltips\\UI-Tooltip-Border"

I changed the "\\" to "//" (I remember some addon required that change sometime ago) but the results were the same.

Your help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Hey guys I have a problem maybe one of you can help with.

kgpanels

I use slightly bigger panels to unit frames to create white borders on pitbull. I have the panels anchored correctly to the unit frames.

The problem I have is with the Party frames. Whenever a Priest, Mage, Shaman summons their pet kgpanels creates the panel but when these pets despawn the panel remains even though pitbull closed the unit frame.

Thanks

Hi guys.

I have a little question which is rather complicated I guess. I wanted to change the tooltip which appers when i click my own portrait or somebody else's portrait (you know the Reset Instances, Set Focus etc).

I downloaded a mpq viewer and exported the .blp's, and converted them into a .tga. So far so good.

Then i opened the .tga in photoshop and changed the color. After that i converted the .tga back into a blp and put it in the appropriat folder, started up, and saw that the changed color change wasnt like i changed it in photoshop.

I then tried to reconvert the converted blp to tga but it didnt work, so i guess the tga to blp converter is corrupted or something.

I just wanted to know if anyone has some experience with this kind of modding the game and can help me out maybe.

Thanks

Thats my UI. It works, but its kinda messy, and all over the place. Ive seen some great looking and compact UI setups, but dont really know how they would work for me. Im also having a problem with Bartender, and that it aslways resets positions and configurations everytime i login, hence my reasoning to get new mods. I want something that looks nice, but still need plenty of different spell options onscreen.

Consider Dominos as an alternative barmod, very easy to deal with, and reskinable with ButtonFacade.

Also, is there a reason for not packing stuff down into the bottom right? That's a nice out of the way place to put things without cluttering up primary view real estate.

How would this code be implemented, say for pitbull? I just want it to show buffs that only I cast myself, so if there is another resto druid in the raid, I don't want to see their hots.

ag-unitframes: i feel blindfolded

but i cannot find the option (latest version) to activate portraits next to the unit frames (target, player, group etc pp). I also dont find any help on other web ressources (looks like im not the only one who has this question). Any help is highly appreciated & thanks in advance!
