Bazooka
Bazooka is a Data Broker Display similar in functionality and looks to FuBar.
Feature highlights
- Top/Bottom alignment or free moving of bars.
- Left-click drag moves, alt-right-click drag resizes the bar (unless the frames are locked).
- Drag-and-drop plugin placement with highlighted drop positions.
- Configurable background / font / icon size.
- The usual options for data broker displays (show text/icon/label, optionally show title in place of label if it's missing).
- Support of iconCoords and icon[RGB] (TomTom arrow, for example).
- Left / Center-Left / Center / Center-Right / Right placement position for plugins within bars, allowing easy layout of plugins. Plugins placed in the Center area are centered as a bunch.
- Optional auto-fade while in combat / out of combat.
- Optionally disable mouse / tooltips.
- Optional simple tooltips (just show title if Alt is held while moving the mouse pointer over the plugin).
- Optional highlight on mouseover for the active plugin.
- Load-on-demand configuration options, small memory footprint for "standard" operation.
- Bulk mode configuration that allows configuring multiple bars/plugins easily.
- Restrict plugin text width
- Disable minimap icons
- Tooltip scale override
- Support for OnMouseWheel, OnReceiveDrag and OnDoubleClick script handlers for plugins
- Optionally override plugin defined text colors
Usage
Getting started
- Create new bars from the main options window
- Drag plugins to desired location
- Drag plugins off bars to disable them
- Dragging bars while holding Alt will change their attached/detached state. Otherwise top/bottom bars will snap back to top or bottom depending on where you drop them.
Using the bulk configuration (standard method)
- Uncheck Auto-apply.
- Check the bars/plugins you want the settings to apply to.
- Check Apply next to the settings you want to change, and set them to the value you need.
- Click Apply at the bottom of the options. The changes you selected will be applied to all selected bars/plugins at this point.
Using the bulk configuration (auto-apply method)
- Check Auto-apply.
- Check the bars/plugins you want the settings to apply to.
- Change the settings (or click the Apply text next to them if their current value is the one you want). The changes will be applied immediately to all selected bars/plugins.

It's an Ace3 problem. If you have Ace3 as a standalone addon, try grabbing the latest alpha. Otherwise (or even if you have Ace3, but it's the latest release) if you still get the debug prints than some other addon pulls in the broken version of Ace3, as I replaced the version included in Bazooka with the latest release version in v1.9.1. You might try hunting it down...
I'll create a new release as soon as a new, fixed Ace3 release is available.

Just tagged v1.9.1 that should pick up the latest release version of the libraries used. It fixed the problem with BT4 on my install. Please report if it works for you, too.
sorry for the hickup,

The only update was Bazooka. In order to fix all of these I just have to enable them(they are showing disabled) and then disable them and they go back to functioning normally.
If it means anything to you after both updates today I now get a chat scroll when I log in that is "Enabling <addon name> <addon Feature> .. example: enabling SexyMap_buttons, Enabling SexyMap_Borders, etc etc .. I can't scroll up to see them all but it is addon after addon.
Are you sure you're on the v1.9.1 version? Do you have a separate Ace3 addon? (as opposed to using embedded libraries). If so, is it the latest release version or alpha version? If it's an alpha, revert back to the latest release.
thanks for the feedback,
cheers,
