Posted Jan 26, 2011Ya.. the shadow nova thing is less of a encounter file error as an oversight in the invoker. Which should be fix'd now, the flashtime gets parsed as well now :)
btw, 25 normals I didn't get *any* of the Maloriak stuff working, and the shield counter for Atramedes didn't work. 1 shots means little time to tweak things though =/
On the upside, since we got heroic halfus I'll soon have much much much more time to test stuff on these bosses o0.

Posted Jan 25, 2011In conflicts with having click actions on the health watchers for targeting / focus, calling Show() on a secure frame is a nono. For me, personally, functionality takes precedence over aesthetics. It may make a comeback at some point in the form of playing with the alpha settings, basically... I think I can make it transparent out of combat, and non-transparent in combat w/o causing issues with secure frames, but I haven't done a ton of testing on that score.

Posted Jan 25, 2011I'm guessing you are referring to Aegis of Flame?
I can take a look at it.... at some point.
Also, there may, or may not, be an issue with the timers for omnitron now. I had to put in some code in an attempt to fix a bug with the encounter not starting and that means any time the tracers are active and you pulse into combat the timers will start. This was apparently causing some lag for a guildy on an alt last night.
We should be heading there early tonight so I'm going to try and get a profiler running to see if I can figure it out.

Posted Jan 25, 2011Much appreciated the updates done lately by several people! I question tho. In BigWigs the timer on Council for the Flame Shield was much better timed, and i tried both the version that was in the 5.14, the one from mauricious and the one from tealta but none of them tracked it as far as I could see. Is there no proper way of tracking it, or is the even not time/percentage based?

Posted Jan 23, 2011So now that omnitron and conclave work, Ive added almost everything i could think of, here are the files: Throne, Bastion, Descent. Not really hard to add something on your own, you can check bigwigs timers.
I think Ill just stick with BigWigs now, as it's not as bad as DBM + its frequently updated and the warnings and timers are showed as nicely as in dxe.
Cheers for all the great work.

Posted Jan 23, 2011514 great!
Shaung, I would just like to add that it would be appreciated if you could take some time to look at Tealta's DXE files. I have tested Magmaw and Atramendes and I can safely say that they are bang on.
I suggest implementing a few of his encounters especially Magmaw because it pretty much has everything covered.

Posted Jan 21, 2011PS - a guildy told me they break if you use "only display in combat" option for the pane, so that is another thing to fix.
That would be the case. It popped up when the encounter started which is probably why i got the error. I'll change my settings to show in a raid only.

Posted Jan 20, 2011That error means that the health watcher title was sent a nil argument for its text. Which should not be the case, since it requires that the "current encounter title" be nil as well, which shouldn't happen...
Were you in combat by chance? There is an issue, now that the HW are clickable that they are now secure frames and, as such, will error out if you are in combat when they try to construct. I intend to create non-secure frames with the secure as a transparent overlay so the HW themselves still work even if the click action does not at some point in the future.

Posted Jan 19, 2011Error on halfus tonight
Not sure if this is due to me or not. Just letting it be known to you Shuang
EDIT: A lot of the bars seem to work and then just stop working midway through the fight I don't understand why.

Posted Jan 19, 2011Chimeron's Feud is randomly either 60 or 90, always immediately after the Massacre. In the one I did for my guild I made two timers called "Feud Maybe" and "Feud Definitely" at 60 and 90. I'm not sure how helpful it really is to know; if you know the 60 passed and it's coming at 90, you could group up as soon as the Massacre casts I guess.
