Oops, It'll be added the next time I push. People with the English client shouldn't worry about this because it gets added anyways.
I'm not really sure. We only hit it because we had about 5-second cast lag, haven't come close to enrage other than one attempt.
Ok, I'll change it to 8. Is this the same on 10 man? I have no way of verifying the enrage timer.
valkyr enrage is 8 minutes not 9 also on live (25 normal)
Fixed in the latest alpha, I had the wrong npc id.
anub'arak encounter is not loading up in combat (normal mode 25)
Global options for everything of cosmetic nature would be great :)
hello would be great to be able to select a boss/add via the panel (ie Freya encounter, selecting the add spawning)
PS : sry for my bad english, french user powa :p
I think I'm going to make a global option for fonts and bar textures. It's going to get quite bloated with individual font and bar texture options for everything.
As always, the usual options for color, texture, alpha etc for the proximity window, border, background, font, etc would be nice ;) I'm sure you were going to implement it anyway, just wanted to mention it :P
Yeah, it's on my todo list. It'd only take me about 10 minutes to do, so you'll probably see it in the alpha sometime this week.
Have you thought of implementing an "on the fly" raid timer for "x" ability used macros from tanks?
DBM's pizza timers are nice for that and I'd love to see that available :P!
Ah, Blizzard added a new map called The Mind's Eye for when you enter the portal. I've added it in the latest alpha. It should be fixed now.
Edit: Updated it again with the real dimensions of The Mind's Eye
[2009/08/24 20:51:34-171-x2]: DXE-318\Coords.lua:32: attempt to index local 'dims' (a nil value) DXE-318\Modules\Arrows.lua:104: in function <Interface\AddOns\DXE\Modules\Arrows.lua:98>
Still gettting this error with latest update on yogg saron encounter. I also noticed that the arrows when entering the portals don't always reset.
Fixed in the latest alpha
