Thanks! I had seen the Pitbull settings before, but the light bulb literally *just* turned on. /facepalm. I had also been wondering if the little boxes were in Pitbull or eePanels, that answers that question as well.

I was trying to avoid doing that since I have so much of my UI set up now, but that's probably what I'll end up doing just for ease of use. Here's hoping it goes smoothly!

- Health percentage changes color as it goes lower (I haven't tinkered with this, but as I stated above, I can't seem to get the color to change from white)

For what it's worth, 1 and 3 here are achieved by DogTags. There's a handy list of tags available at the wowace site. There's also a thread here on the Interface forum with some useful DogTags that you might find of interest; it's a good place to see some more complicated tags and get a feel for how the syntax works.

This is an irritating problem that I still haven't fully resolved, but I have a voodoo-fix. I get mystery screen-edge flashing on every character I roll until I disable all my mods and log in once (and make sure screen-edge flashing is disabled in Interface). Then, I can log out, re-enable all my mods, and it never re-occurs. I have no idea what the deal is, I spent most of an afternoon trying to trace it down and never succeeded, but I hope my little fix works for you.

Am I missing some way to configure it to work just like eg battle shout in that it puts up a 30 sec bar and counts down, only refreshing to max whenever I actually use my rampage ability, or do I need to try a different mod? And if so, can anyone recommend a really lightweight one?

Add

if unit == "player" and name == "Rampage" and remaining then duration = 30 end

On line 349 between end and if duration.

Then don't update it anymore and it works perfectly.

I'm having a problem with Buffalo2.

http://i26.tinypic.com/w3c45.jpg

I have two sets of buffs, one is Buffalo2, and the other is the default blizzard.

How are you suppose to get rid of the defauly blizzard buffs?

Nyfe · 04/13/08, 2:58 PM

For people who use Debuff Filter:

Basically what I want to do is to add a Battle/Commanding Shout timer into debuff filter so I can look one place to see all my self buffs/debuffs.

This is how I have it set up right now. Ideally I'll have the shout timer to the right or left of the debuffs. I've tried going into the settings, adding commanding/batte shout into the self buff list, checking the self buff box, neither seems to have any effect.

For people who don't use Debuff Filter:
Recommend me an addon that will track my demo shout, tclap, battle/commanding shouts durations preferable using just the icon and a timer below it, like the above screenshot.

Doirse · 04/13/08, 8:02 PM

I don't know if this is the correct forum to post this question, and I apologize if it's not.

I am looking for a simple mod/addon that displays your current attack speed. As a BM hunter, I use two macros depending on my attack speed and I'd like to be able to watch it as it changes based on IAotH procs, Battle Drums, etc..

There used to be an addon for rogues called like 'attack speedometer' but it is no longer updated and never worked for hunters/ranged attack.

if anyone knows of anything along these lines I would appreciate a link.

Many thanks.

I'm thinking StatBlocks + StatBlocks_Ranged is customizable to do this for you. It's in the WAU and ... also right here: Index of /StatBlocks/

How do I change the font on CML?

Or should I just switch to SLDataText?

Thanahtos · 04/14/08, 3:05 PM

Is it possible for kgPanels to have adaptive coloring? I want my kgPanels to turn red if I'm below a certain amount of health, I would assume through .LUA programming I could do it, but for the life of me, I can't figure it out.

Pagarth · 04/14/08, 3:47 PM

Is it possible to make it so all my chat windows are the same height and width? I don't really like having to tweak it by dragging around an hoping they are close to each other. Is this a setting in Prat?

You can simply change it via the options dialog. (/cml config, /cml options or /cml menu, don't know

)
If there are no fonts, you should download the SharedMedia AdditionalFontsPackage (World of Warcraft Addons - WowAce.com),
and choose one you like.

I advise you to get rid of Buffalo2 and download simply "Buffalo", since you can skin it with CyCircled and
I think the default setting is without blizzard's standard buff-set.

I did both (look at the menu and DL SharedMedia), but haven't found the option to change the font itself. Is there a menu/config/options other than the waterfall one? If so, that may be my problem, I've only been using the waterfall menu.

badMonkey · 04/15/08, 4:45 PM

Hm, when I disable all addons but CML, I cannot change the font.
But when I enable all, I can. Don't know what addon it is, but here's my CML.lua out of the relam-SavedVariables:

cmldb = {
	["profiles"] = {
		["Default"] = {
			["fontShadow"] = true,
			["fontFace"] = "<FONT-YOU-WANT-TO-USE>",
			["posY"] = 110,
			["fontSizeStats"] = 12,
			["align"] = "RIGHT",
			["posX"] = 130,
			["fontSizeClock"] = 20,
			["pos"] = "BOTTOMLEFT",
		},
	},
	["currentProfile"] = {
		["Chari - Tirion"] = "Default",
	},
}

Note the "<FONT-YOU-WANT-TO-USE>", replace it with one of the SharedMedia or something, don't know.
I hope this helps, at least a bit.

I'll try that tonight, thanks!

PitBull-r53016\PowerBar\PowerBar.lua:257: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'r' (a table value)
PitBull-r53016\PitBull.lua:3822: in function `_PopulateUnitFrame'

I get this every time I log on and I cant do anything with the Power Bars. This makes no sense to me at all, and help would be awesome.

Imbar · 04/16/08, 10:57 PM

I get that PowerBar error too.
It doesn't seem to affect the function of any of the Pitbull components for me, however.

Entr0pic · 04/17/08, 3:22 AM

I'm using Howitzer's UI (A tad modified to my taste of course), and since I prefer the default quest tracker to questIon, turned questIon off. The problem is that the default quest tracker, which is supposed to show up on the right side, isn't showing up! I do not know which mod is disabling it and have been trying to narrow it down for days. List of addons is below.

Xei · 04/17/08, 3:49 AM

Ive been having problem with Scorchio since the patch.

I have been editting it with the link provided by some of the Mages on this forums: http://wombat.robostac.co.uk/~robo/core.lua

Which is no longer working.

Anyone know of a fix for it? Or an alternate mod to track scorch debuffs?

Thanahtos · 04/17/08, 2:39 PM

I've been trying to find a replacement to Aloft. I'm trying to get my memory usage as far down as I can, and Aloft uses almost 4 mb by itself... so if anyone could point me in the direction of a low-memory replacement, I'd be eternally grateful.

Ebeewa · 04/17/08, 9:10 PM

I've been messing around with Omen and Recount to see if I can add custom textures, and I can't seem to figure out how to make it so I can get custom textures to work for them. Is there anyway you can add custom textures for Recount/Omen or do you have to use the default ones that come with the addons?

Edit: I've messed around with SharedMedia, MyMedia files, SharedMedia-2.0, and I can't get those to do it either.

I use Ptags, I don't know where the original download is from, I got it from Roth's UI.
