I'm trying to write myself a very simple castbar addon, that only changes position, statusbar texture, and size.
However, when trying to set up a SetTexture it throws me an error, i dont know if it's got to do with me having (bartexture) instead of a valid file path, most likely since that is what the error is about. How would i be able to set it as (bartexture) if the file path is the problem? :)

ERROR:

Code:

wCB\wCB.lua:28: attempt to call method 'SetTexture' (a nil value)

Code:

local point = 'CENTER', UIParent, 'CENTER', 0, -200

local scale = 1

local width = 150

If anyone is able to help me with this, i'd be very happy.

http://www.wowinterface.com/download...ombatText.html

I was wondering if there is a combat scrolling text that shows rogue energy gains from criticals, skills etc... and the >50% health warnings when your enemy is lower then 50% HP. Is there an option for this that I've just been missing on this SCT? If not what is the combat text AddOn that does this?

Also I'd like to know if there's any good AddOn that shows Bars with Stun, Blind, Rupture, Expose armor etc.. and when their going to run out. Tryed dowloading Stun Watch but apparently its not compatible with the newest patches. Tryed downloading Elk buff bars but can't get it to show my target's debuffs only shows buffs on myself.

Can anyone tell me what AddOn this guy is using in the begining of the video to get his bars and HP/Energy etc.. like that?

http://video.google.fr/videoplay?doc...9933&q=corrupt

I was looking for a DPS addOn that shows the party DPS and who was the highest dps. I found DPS meter but I didn't like the speed meter look I wanted something that showed bars for each player with highest DPS to lowest. I found damage meters but it seems to be really out of date.

Appreciate the help. Thx guys. ]]> Interface Requests dante84 http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19627 JC Gem Price Watcher http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19626&goto=newpost Fri, 05 Dec 2008 00:54:42 GMT Hey all,

this idea might be a bit "out there", but I was wondering if it'd be possible.
The add-on focuses on gems and jewelcrafters alone, and does a price scan of the auction house upon visit, gathering the current sell values for raw gems and their cut counterparts.

Jewelcrafters in turn will use this to quickly establish which gems to best cut and resell for profit. Possible modifiers could include filtering by gem quality and one-click crafting. I'm using Auctionator right now to manually gain an auction house overview of the current price ranges, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who has a hard time figuring out the most profitable cut to go with.

Anyone intrigued / appalled? Maybe it even exists already and I've been missing it all this time, but I thought I'd drop it here regardless :D ]]> Interface Requests cawfee http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19626 CreatureType(): sanity check? http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19625&goto=newpost Fri, 05 Dec 2008 00:54:26 GMT one of my users reported a defect, and in researching it, it appears that the Blizzard "CreatureType()" API function may now returning an "enUS" string, rather than a localized string.

First of all I'm french : sorry if my English is not good as it could be :)

I'm creating an AddOn which can save and displays messages like the WoW alarm system, improved. I thought I could find an event like "TIME_CHANGED" or something like that, and simply call an "OnEvent" function. But I don't find that event on WoWWiki, I looked into the Blizzard_TimeManager.lua file but I can't find what I'm looking for.

Does anybody know how I can do ?
Thank you :)

I am using a compilation which has got all its libs embedded (probably a good idea while Wrath updates were coming out frequently). Now things have settled down and things are more stable, I am interested in disembedding (is that the right word?) the libs and wondered what I had to do.

Just taking, for example, the ACE2 and ACE3 libs... I see for addons that use them the author has a libs subdirectory containing the libs the addon uses as well as (sometimes) an embeds.xml which explicitly refers to the libs the addon uses (usually as ../libs/Acesoandsolibname).

If I just put one copy of the libs in the Addons folder and delete the embedded duplicates, will WoW be happy to use the Addons-level copy or do I also need to go through each and every embeds.xml and delete the explicit references as well?

Before I used Elkano's Frames Resized and Fence and Discord Frame Modifier. I'm using the updated FramesResized and Fence now and notice the quest log being overlapped by other windows like an inspection frame rather than being pushed to the right.

This would be really useful as a JC.

Is there any such addon?

It would be really useful for many things like timing when to use your cooldowns or normal abilites. For example a Mage that blinks out of kidney shot and finds himself with no combo points would know that it is safe to cast frostbolt without getting interrupted from deadly throw.

Also if there is no addon like this I request someone try to create it please because I'm sure it's not that complicated but for me I don't know a single thing about addon programming. I'm sure this would be useful for many people.
