Just a more or less common question.
To get timers on buffs/debuff working I added an textobject to the buttonframe.
I wrote a function that returns the number in seconds if time remaining was less then 60seconds.

Everything showed up fine, but it wasn't updating itself. Only the cooldown spiral was moving as intended.

I discovered later that it was working on the targetoftarget frame, so I kept digging.

Finally I found following line of code under the tot-Frame in the core.lua

object:SetScript("OnUpdate", OnUpdate)

I added this line to the other frames as well, and now the timers are working everywhere.

So far so good.

What I want to know is, if that has any influence at the overall performance, and if so, wether there is a better way.

And if someone could explain to me what happens by calling that script, I would be gratefull.

OnUpdate is called on every frame refresh, so if you had 20fps, then it would be called 20 times a second.

You can only update every 1/2 second, for example by rewriting the OnUpdate func like:

  local OnUpdate = function(self, a1)
  	time = time + a1
  	
  	if(time > .5) then
  		<DO STUFF IN HERE>
  		time = 0
  	end
  end

I've been having fun with runits all evening, but I haven't seen anywhere I can edit the font size of the units.
(or rather, I've tried searching for font and size and such, without luck. And skimming through hasn't produced anything either) Can I be true that there's no way of doing this?

In the layout.lua file find this:

local hpp = hp:CreateFontString(nil, "OVERLAY")
    hpp:SetPoint("RIGHT", -3, 0)
    hpp:SetFontObject(GameFontHighlight)
    hpp:SetTextColor(1, 1, 1)

And change the bold part to:

hpp:SetFont("Fonts\\skurri", 12)

This will set the font of the hpp setting to use the skurri font in the main Fonts folder at size 12. Just replace the path to your font in "", you can also specify your own size and if it has an outline.

Some changes a lot of people might like to make:

If you want the minimap in the bottom right corner, change in rMinimap\rMinimap.lua

      Minimap:SetPoint("Top",0,-15)
      Minimap:SetPoint("Right",-15,0)

to

      Minimap:SetPoint("BOTTOM",UIParent,"BOTTOM",-230,14);
      Minimap:SetPoint("RIGHT",-15,0)

---------------

If you want the buffs to now be on the top right of your screen where the minimap used to be, change in rBuff\rBuff.lua

      TemporaryEnchantFrame:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", Minimap, "TOPLEFT", -15, 0)

to

      TemporaryEnchantFrame:SetPoint("Top", UIParent,"TOPRIGHT", -30, -10)

I'm pretty sure its working correctly :x

---------------

Now that LynStats is all out of place, change the following in LynStats\core.lua:

      local frame_anchor = "BOTTOMRIGHT"
      local pos_x = -10
      local pos_y = 10

      and farther below:

      self:SetPoint(frame_anchor, UIParent, frame_anchor, pos_x, pos_y)

to

      local frame_anchor = "CENTER"
      local pos_x = 0
      local pos_y = 85

      self:SetPoint(frame_anchor, Minimap, frame_anchor, pos_x, pos_y)

Anyone have idea how to set the background to be Unit reaction based like in this screenshot ?

The screenshot you posted is from the creator of rUI... Roth / Zork .. why dont you just ask him ?

I think he just did, seeing as how this thread is about zork's compilation and he checks it frequently. Should've been a PM, yadda yadda, but there might just be another person who knows how to do it.

On topic, the only things bothering me about any of the rMods are things to do with pets. For rBars the WoW art background for the pet bar persists, and for rUnits there is an lua error on line 61 (I believe) of the Healthbar.lua, having to do with the happiness and indexing a nil value.

Delita · 03/19/08, 5:30 PM

It seems to be indexing a nil value for all non-hunters and hunters without an active pet out when you join a party/group and leave a party/group, as they have no pet with no happyness available to check for the number in the pet healthbar. I've been playing with Healthbar.Lua line 61 to see where it's tracking too for non-hunters/hunters without pets out, but to no avail as of yet.

Any chance someone could translate rFilters to English?

local rf_settings = {

As far as I could see, other german words in the following code are already listed above.

Cool, thanks alot.

mepi · 03/20/08, 5:10 PM

anyone have any clue why this is happening?

evl · 03/21/08, 1:46 AM

rUnits seems to be a pretty old fork of oUF, I would suggest you merge the newest version with your own fork, the new version supports stand-alone layouts, much better aura handling, default but user movable frames and is a lot lighter.

oUF - Unit frame framework for the people. Does nothing by itself.

There's also a bunch of other very minimal addons on the same git.

(note: I'm not haste but I've worked a bit on the newest oUF with him)

Auralin · 03/21/08, 2:52 AM

I'm having trouble figuring out what text to alter to hide the raid frames in rUnits, If anyone could help, I would apprciate it.
I was also trying to change the Font and size. I was trying the same thing that Velveeta suggested and for some reason its not working. The script looks correct to me, anyone know why this code isn't working?

The original code is found in the layout.lua file, near the very bottom.

I was fooling around with rBuffs last night, but couldn't find the line of code to get the buff durations to show under the buttons. Is there a line of code that needs to be added or did I just overlook it?

Tecnique · 03/21/08, 6:49 PM

Just check the Buff Times option in the WoW Interface options.

Jayis · 03/22/08, 3:02 PM

I'm trying to figure out how to lower the size of the button padding with rbars. Is this possible at all?

Auralin · 03/22/08, 4:13 PM

I have a question about rfilters. Is there anyway to distinguish between the class your currently playing and the buffs / debuffs that show up? For instance: on my warlock, I want my DOTs to show up, but on my priest I don't want to see warlock debuffs. On my priest, I want to see fort, and spirit, ect, but on my warlock I don't want to see those.
Would it most likely be beter to just get a differerent filter mod, if so does anyone have a sugestion for one. I've always just used the built in filters with mods like pitbull.

Also, I can't find the offset for debuffs for rUnits and I'm not 100% on how to set one up. Im trying to get the debuffs to go to the left instead of the right. If someone could point me to the right line or tell me what I need to insert, it would be a big help.

I was also wondering if anyone else had tried to run rBars and FuBar at the same time. I tried setting up fubar for a couple small addons, and it caused rBars to completely change positions on the screen. I know that FuBar by defaul will move the Bliz UI up or down to make room for its self, but not completely relocate the bars. If anyone knows anything about this or a quick fix to prevent this bug, it would be appriciated, I'm sure I'm not the only person that has wanted to use these addons in conjunction with each other.

Thanks in advance.

P.S I almost have my Layout completed, I'll post soon.

Auralin · 03/22/08, 4:20 PM

Sorry for the Back to back posting just answering Jayis' question.

There might be an easier way, but I know if you make a line for every button and possition it individually you can change it. like so:

  ShapeshiftButton1:ClearAllPoints()
  ShapeshiftButton1:SetPoint("TOPLEFT",Minimap,"LEFT",-32,82);

  ShapeshiftButton2:ClearAllPoints()
  ShapeshiftButton2:SetPoint("BOTTOM",ShapeshiftButton1,"BOTTOMLEFT",15,-40);

  ShapeshiftButton3:ClearAllPoints()
  ShapeshiftButton3:SetPoint("BOTTOM",ShapeshiftButton2,"BOTTOMLEFT",15,-40);

  ShapeshiftButton4:ClearAllPoints()
  ShapeshiftButton4:SetPoint("BOTTOM",ShapeshiftButton3,"BOTTOMLEFT",15,-40);

  ShapeshiftButton5:ClearAllPoints()
  ShapeshiftButton5:SetPoint("BOTTOM",ShapeshiftButton4,"BOTTOMLEFT",15,-40);

  ShapeshiftButton6:ClearAllPoints()
  ShapeshiftButton6:SetPoint("BOTTOM",ShapeshiftButton5,"BOTTOMLEFT",15,-40);

I used that bit of code to make my shapeshift bar vertical along the side of my minimap. You can make any variation on that you'd like.

If someone knows any easier way of doing this I'd love to hear it.

This is only a warning. Some actions are not allowed to be called while in combat or sth like that. To get rid of the warning message just disable the addon Baud error frame, I use it to find errors.

Its not a big deal imo.

mepi · 03/22/08, 5:12 PM

Ah ok thanks zork, I really didn't understand what the error/warning was. It seems to happen quite frequently
