In reply to gaviin1242: Oddly enough, I fixed an issue with another addon not even referenced in that error message, and now I'm not getting this one from EBB. So I guess this may be nothing. Very strange.

I'll keep the message here in case it's something that does need fixing anyway

In reply to gaviin1242:

 Just comment out lines 1263 and 1265 of ElkBuffBars/ElkBuffBars.lua, by adding -- at the start of the line
( --TooltipUtil.SurfaceArgs(tooltipData) ) 

In reply to Sinba:

Thanks, yeah just not sure if that will disable some part of the addon's actual functionality.

Also wanted to come back and note that I'm still getting the error occasionally, even with all other addons updated and working fine. So does seem like it's something that could use fixing in EBB. Thanks!

In reply to gaviin1242:

TooltipUtil.SurfaceArgs has been removed entirely in 11.0.2 and I think wasn't operational for a some time before that, so you can safely comment out the lines

Thank you for updating the addon for TWW.

I noticed that the addon bars were showing underneath a Weakaura texture I had set as BACKGROUND strata.

I had to edit the code in EBB_BarGroup.lua find "strata" there and change it to LOW to fix issue.

Not sure if perhaps a strata level in the /ebb options would be a good idea.

Take care!

If anyone wants to get this working for TWW Beta, you can just add the following to ElkBuffBars.lua:

if not GetAddOnMetadata then

GetAddOnMetadata = C_AddOns.GetAddOnMetadata

end

if not UnitAura then

UnitAura = function(unitToken, index, filter)

local auraData = C_UnitAuras.GetAuraDataByIndex(unitToken, index, filter)

if not auraData then

return nil

end

return AuraUtil.UnpackAuraData(auraData)

end

end

You can add it right after line 63 which should be a greyed out comment and above line 65, which should be a function called ElkBuffBars:AddDefaultBargroups()

Hope this helps anyone.

Nope. Does not work anymore.

In reply to Der_Adrinator: For retail, when just unzipping into the folder as usual, was still seeing and error. A folder must have changed with the new release, so if you remove the old, then download it should be fine.

Thank you very much for the update! I don't know how I would live without this as there are no addons really that do buff bars that I have seen.

Thank you for the update!

doesnt seem to work

Little fix for Cata.

Open "EBB_Bar.lua" search for fontString:SetJustifyV("CENTER") and replace it with fontString:SetJustifyV("MIDDLE")

In reply to Lysandro: You, are an absolute legend. Just to add to this, this same string appears twice in the file. I changed both and it's working.

In reply to Lysandro:

 Amazing TY!

So, this addon is dead too? Or do we get a update soon? Im sick and tired of the "Player entering world" error....

I would also love to see it updated for Cata Classic. <3

Hey thank you for this awesome addon! Will this get updated for Cata Classic abilities? :) have a good one!

Not sure if this is a dead addon or not, so i recreated it in weakauras. PM me if you want a link.
