Example of buffs and duration timer on a party member.

SolaceBuffDisplay

SolaceBuffDisplay provides constant buff and debuff display for the default party frames, complete with duration timer overlays for player cast buffs and an option to filter buffs and debuffs based on what your character can cast or cure. It also includes options for increasing and decreasing the number of buffs and debuffs shown on the default target frame, as well as an option to disable the "big buffs" on the target frame when cast by the player.

Type "/solace" in game for help.

--------

The current version is a stable version. It should be stable in current versions of World of Warcraft, World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, and World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King. If you encounter any bugs, please let me know.

--------

IMPORTANT NOTE: If updating from SolacePartyBuffs and/or SolaceTargetFrame, please be sure to DELETE your SolacePartyBuffs and SolaceTargetFrame AddOn folders prior to starting World of Warcraft!

--------

2010/01/23 - Fixes the error introduced by patch 3.3.0. Sorry for the delay!
2009/08/06 - TOC updated for 3.2.0. This is mainly just a version bump for anyone who's lost track of us since the new Curse or WoWUI updaters/minions came to the for, and a request for reports on any issues that might remain outstanding, and feature requests, as usual. I do still plan to implement buff displays for the arena frames in a new plugin, but time is scarce.
2008/12/10 - Fixed (probably) an issue that caused Weakened Soul not to be displayed for Priests when aura filtering was enabled. Now includes zhTW localization: thanks xyrho!
2008/11/05 - Fixed an issue where changing max buffs or debuffs could sometimes result in nil value errors.
2008/10/16 - Updated for 3.0.2. Player pet tooltips should once again appear. Blizzard seems to have removed partypet tips.
2008/07/20 - Found and fixed an issue where party/pet tooltips were being handled incorrectly following a client change in 2.4.3.
2008/07/20 - Updated for 2.4.3.
2008/04/26 - Integrated SolaceTargetFrame and updated for 2.4.1.
2006/06/07 - Initial upload to mod sites.

Turns out, having two kids and two jobs cuts in to your modding time. Thanks Evo for the quick fix. In a quick glance through Blizzard's code, I think a more correct fix would be to change those two lines to TargetFrame_UpdateAuras(self);, though I'm not 100% sure on the arg. Again, I'll try and get a chance to test the fix Soon™. __________________ Author: SolaceBuffDisplay SolaceStones

EvoTech A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 19 Uploads: 0	As I see this addon is kinda left aside, I tried fixing it and i come to this conclusion: Removing or commenting "TargetDebuffButton_Update();" in file "SolaceTargetFrame.lua" (there should be 2 lines [line 50 and 72]) This works for me, so I dnk if it will for others. Current patch 3.3

Re: Priest

They are called "SolacePartyBuffFrameXDebuffY", where X is the party member and Y is the debuff index. They are children of SolacePartyBuffFrameX, which is a child of PartyMemberFrameX. Then I do a bunch of math to figure out where they should go.

Have you tested this with the filter off, or on other characters? I wonder some if your other mods are interfering somehow; I know for a certainty that I see debuffs on my Priest, but I don't use the filter generally. I'll try to get a chance to test.

Im sure they arent shown on the top right of the party frames. I tried the CT_Partybuffs addon and the debuffs are shown on the top right with it. Also the CT addon shows prayer of mending properly so it cant be blizzard who filters it wrong?
Im not saying CT addon is better, I still use yours because CT only affects Party and Solace have big buffs and the "timeleft circular pie", which CT lack.
I do use some other addons that modify the default frames, those are...
RaidFrames+ < just awesome
Unit Frames Tweaks < class portraits & portrait hit indicator
Unit Range Check < range check alpha on party... cool

I hope this might be of some help to get this addon flawless.
I cba to use pitbull and others like that again. Bliz default is the ****.

Keep up the Good work

*edit*
I made a screenshot with the issues that you can have a look at.

What names do your party debuff frames have, maybe i can locate them?

That sounds like a good idea and something well within the scope of what I'd like to provide.

I will try and get in a couple of arenas soon to see what I'm looking at, and will probably do SolaceArenaEnemyBuffs as a separate mod. I can't promise how quickly it will happen as my son was just born and I'm a lot busier in and out of the office than I'd like, but I will get to it as I can!

Now, I'd like to adjust this addon (party buffs) to affect arena enemy party (arena1-5 token ids). I've made many changes, it detects auras correctly but I just can't position the buttons properly on the screen (never understood anchors and stuff).

Mind in your spare time add SolaceArenaEnemyBuffs (ArenaEnemyFrame1-5 are used as parents)

You use ARENA_OPPONENT_UPDATE, UNIT_NAME_UPDATE and UNIT_AURA and it works fine, but those darn buttons won't place themselves properly.

goliath0, while I'm hunting for a guildie to copy to the PTR and help me test, can you try removing that logic altogether? You can comment the section out like so:

Code:

		--[[if ( i <= 4 ) then

			getglobal("PartyMemberFrame" .. getglobal(frame):GetID() .. "Debuff" .. i):Hide();

		end]]--

That code is to account for the four "always on" debuff buttons that Blizzard had on the party frames since release (back when four was all you got). If they've turned those in to dynamically created buttons like the rest of them, that logic should be completely unnecessary.

Thanks again!

some indexing a nil value here

FIX:
if ( i <= 4 ) then
local b = getglobal("PartyMemberFrame"..getglobal(frame):GetID().."Debuff"..i);
if(b ~= nil) then
b:Hide();
end
end

I don't have a Priest high enough to test, either, but I don't do anything (at all) to handle that sort of detection, I just turn Blizzard's detection on and off. So if you've got showownbuffs on, what you're seeing is Blizzard's default behaviour. I'm not trying to track things beyond what the interface is already telling us.

Thanks, goliath0! I'm waiting on my PTR copies (and some extra free time), but if nothing else I'll get a version bump with your fix for PTR addicts early this week, I think.
