Sets you to DND when you fight a boss, and some other crap.

Will there be a release for 3.1? Are there known problems?

the functions for the raidmembers are here:

ocal function incomingFilter()
if not boss then return end

if type(arg2) ~= "string" or arg2 == pname or
(UnitExists("target") and UnitName("target") == arg2) or UnitInRaid(arg2) or
(type(arg6) == "string" and arg6 == "GM") then return end

if not whisperers[arg2] or whisperers[arg2] == 1 or arg1 == "status" then
-- Let him know we are fighting a boss
whisperers[arg2] = 2

local total = GetNumRaidMembers()
local alive = 0
for i = 1, total do
if not UnitIsDeadOrGhost(GetRaidRosterInfo(i)) then alive = alive + 1 end
end
SendChatMessage(dndString:format(boss, bossHp, alive, total), "WHISPER", nil, arg2)
end
end

ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_WHISPER_INFORM", outgoingFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_WHISPER", incomingFilter)

local function checkTarget(id)
return UnitExists(id) and UnitAffectingCombat(id) and UnitClassification(id) == "worldboss"
end

local function scan()
if checkTarget("target") then return "target" end
if checkTarget("focus") then return "focus" end
if UnitInRaid("player") then
for i = 1, GetNumRaidMembers() do
if checkTarget("raid"..i.."target") then return "raid"..i.."target" end
end
else
for i = 1, 5 do
if checkTarget("party"..i.."target") then return "party"..i.."target" end
end
end
end

them are from simplebosswhisperer... and them need some small changes for bosswhisperer

coudl you add the message like this....:

local dndString = dndBanner .. "I'm busy fighting %s (currently at %d%% with %d/%d players alive). You'll be notified when combat ends."
local combatEndedString = dndBanner .. "Combat ended after %d minutes."

do
local locale = GetLocale()
if locale == "deDE" then
dndString = dndBanner .. "Ich bin im Kampf mit %s (noch %d%% Leben with %d/%d players alive). Du wirst nach Kampfende benachrichtigt werden."
combatEndedString = dndBanner .. "Kampf beendet nach %d Minuten."
end
end

i like "the with %d/%d players alive"

FYI this is causing my chat window to not display any channels or chat messages. I know a few other addons that deal with chat functions have also caused this. Try disabling to see if you get your chat function back.

If anyone knows anything about coding these adddons and this is a simple fix, I would love to know and can do it myself. Otherwise, I will wait for an update. Thanks!

I have cloned this addon on wowace and updated it to work with v3.0.2.

Get it from the svn repository of the update-3-0-2 clone (see http://www.wowace.com/projects/boss-whisperer/repositories/update-3-0-2/).

As far as I can tell, the autopackager doesn't publish clones anywhere, so I can't give you a direct download link, sorry.

Although now it's been pointed out to me, the files _are_ actually available (thanks ShaneSveller :-)), see http://www.wowace.com/projects/boss-whisperer/repositories/update-3-0-2/files/ .

I'll see if I can push my changes into the mainline so it gets published here too.
