Adoriele,

Thanks for updating SaA so quickly! I felt like a buffoon without it. Just wanted to say that your hard work is much appreciated!

In my settings I only have MF/Eclipse/Eclipse CD/IS up and it appears that the MF/Eclipse/CD bars are the ones overlapping.

See the following: http://i672.photobucket.com/albums/v...509_203723.jpg
I am having this exact same issue. When I did the quick fix on the old SAA to fix FF to the new spell number, everything was good, no overlapping. Overlapping occurred only after updating to the newest SAA.

On a similar note, have you ever considered disconnecting the bars so that they could be moved/sized separately?

Thanks Adoriele! SAA is really a perfectly executed mod, and I'm so glad to see that you're keeping it going.

Good, that's useful info. I'll see if it happens when I raid tonight, though it wasn't an issue for me while I was testing it. As for disconnecting the bars, that would be a lot of work, with little benefit, so not something I'm likely to do. Also, when I get the fix updated, I'll be removing the borders on all "internal" bars, i.e. Eclipse (not cooldown) and both the tick bars.

Thanks Adoriele for this great addon. I got a question about the settings of it. In heavy aoe fights and where its alot of spelleffects I at times got hard time to see the timers since I prefer to have them close to the center of the screen where I easy can spot them. Is there any way to set a background to the bars ?

I am also having the problem where the eclipse and moonfire bars are overlapping, however, using an older version with the ff fix did not work for me to correct it.

If you're having the MF/Eclipse/Eclipse CD bar overlap problems described above after updating to SAA v. 1.2, here is a quick fix that is working for me and might help you:

Delete SAA v. 1.2 from your addon folder.
Go to the wowinterface SAA page. See the tab that says "Archived"? Click there.
Download v. 1.1.1 (this is the most recent one before 1.2), install it as usual.

No more overlap! But now you probably have the FF issue. So just use the old fix on that, which is:

Go into the SquawkAndAwe folder in your addon folder.
Open the SquawkAndAwe LUA file (I used notepad to open it in windows)
Scroll down just a bit; you'll see this line:

SquawkAndAwe.combat.faerie = #####

There's some 5 digit number there. Replace that number with 770, the new spell number for FF since 3.1.

Hope this is helpful! Sorry if this is obvious to some people.

ok i found a quick fix i think, in the SquawkAndAwe.lua in the bar creation section,
change the "local barCount = 0" to "local barCount = 1"
and that should cause the overlap to go away. i havent tested this will all the bars on, but it works for having both eclipse bars and both is and mf bars turned on. and this is for the 1.2 verson as well

Figured I'd add that I did not try this (although I saw the fix). It was happening with 1.1.1 (no FF Fix) and the newest release. I've also tried different variations of bars being displayed to no avail.

Odd part is that I'm not getting the issue here, though Cygmus' fix is in the right spot for what would cause it. I'm not sure what's going on, I checked my local copy against the one I uploaded, and they're identical, and none of the changes from 1.1.1 came anywhere close to this. I'll see what I can do, though, maybe there's a workaround.

I had the same issue with 1.1.1 after I did the FF fix. After upgrading to 1.2 I still had the issue until I deleted the addon folder and the saved variables (which had my old 1.1.1 settings in it). After doing this and reinstalling 1.2 the overlapping disappeared.

Now that I'm re-sub'ing to WoW, I've been looking around the addon's sections to see how things have progressed. It's really nice of you to have included original authors, and it got me to thinking about how incredibly far these have come. The addon list actually stretches back at least 2 generations prior in terms of where the work came from.

First was stunwatch by Vector in early 2005.
that bred DiscoDice (rogue timers and cooldowns) in early 2006 which also used an xml file for the gui
that led to DisqoDice which Ace'd it up and built frames in the lua itself
that led to Shock and Awe which I'm excited to start using as soon as my character transfer goes through
Which gets us to here.

You've done an awesome job with this. I don't really have a point to this post, other than I like documenting the history of it. There's probably even more that happened before the original stunwatch, but I don't know that part of history.

If I ever get my druid above 19 (not a twink, just where I happened to stop leveling him and start bank-alt'ing him), I'll definitely install this addon.

Let me map a priority list out for you so that you can refer to it in the future:
1. Money 2. Money 3. PvE 4. Mages 5. Companion pets 6. PvP

I did a 3 moonkin raid last night and it flipped out, was ending up with moonfire showing 15 additional duration adds while there was no moonfire belonging to me on the target. Each time I applied a fresh moonfire it reset the duration on the Moonfire bar but not the # on it and I -think- whenever other people applied their own fresh MF it reset the bar again. Seems to behave normally in a 1 moonkin world so luckily that was a pug. This was 1.1.1 with the faerie fire fix.

Yeah, there are issues with DoT's and multiple Moonkin. When IS expires, is tracks the IS from the other Moonkin as well.

This should be fixed with 1.2. Is it not?
