442-33 is not working at all.
and there is still no warning (Announces) when Necrotic Plague is casted on me. :( I need to move away from raid to the mobs when I get Nec Plague but I notice it kinda late while there is no sound.
Using 442-33 I get the following error when I click the minimap icon to load DXE.

I used 442-16 before and it loaded without errors. Could there be something wrong on my side?

I totally agree with Melfus, there is no warning when Necrotic Plague goes to myself. This is very critical for phase 1. I wrote it by myself with another addon, but if this addon could warn me, it would be great!
# Spanish (esMX)
er.. wrong, Spanish = esES (Español España), and the american spanish is that esMX (Español Mexico)
Only thing I can find missing from the LK encounter is a timer and self-warn for necrotic plague which is pretty critical for P1. I will probably write it in myself tonight, but I proper addition would be appreciated.
Would it be possible to add an option to control the fade time of the bars?
Any chance of putting in a way to purge Encounters received via the Distributor? We were running custom LK plugins and now having problems going back to live versions.
It happens about once every 1 to 3 hours.
This kind of Freeze only happens with DXE activated.
I'm using it anyway, because it uses WAY less resources than DBM usually,
but the freezes are extremely annoying and usually deadly for my Group,
as I am a Tank...
Are there any incompatibilities/conflicts known between DXE and other Addons?
(Obviously, I would not run DBM at the same time ;) )
Latest alpha dont show any cooldowns in LK 25 , where half of the raid is using DXE.
All of us rolled back to 442 release.
@mclagett: I removed the defile arrows in the latest alpha. The map breaks when the edges fall off so you can't get coordinates of players.
@Alexander234: It's fixed in the latest alpha.
the defile arrows don't appear to be working properly on 25
On the 25 ppl Lich King encounter i have three timers for incoming Valkyrs. Is there a possibility to turn off second and third timer ? Cause they are : 1) Not so useful 2) Eating much of space :)
Thx !
@Creylius: Youll have to have DBM pizza timer running unfortunately.
@amijay77, Malarkschwag: The release version doesn't have an implemented LK encounter. We're almost finished with it; phrase 3 timers still need to be added. It'll be tagged probably tomorrow. I tested the latest alpha and LK should load fine. If the localization phrase for LK isn't translated then it won't start correctly.
Maybe you can help or maybe there's a way of doing this but, our MT uses DBM's Pizza Timer for people to pre-pot before engaging a boss and I was wondering if there's a way of getting DXE to communicate with DBM to make a bar. Or may need to simply have DBM running and just use the Pizza timer? >.<
