Posted Apr 30, 2010I just installed DXE today and I am loving it, overall much better than Bigwigs and DBM. I have been configuring it for the last hour and have gotten everything exactly how I want it, but I have one major problem. I can't figure out a way to change the font for the timers/countdowns on the alert bars. I am able to change the font on all other texts of the mod including titles on the pane and the the other text in bar saying who is getting targeted with stuff or what spell is being casted but I cant figure out how to change the timer texts on the bars. If anyone please knows how to change that font I would greatly appreciate it.

Posted Apr 25, 2010Disconnect issue with DXE v484-15-gc027a34.
Forums are timing out for me, so I'm making a post here. Sorry if its in the wrong place.
I updated to this version few days ago, and I keep DCing on boss fights (10 & 25). Beasts spawn on DBS, Spores on Festergut, Injection on Rotface, Stars on Alga, Adds on Anub, and many more. I am the Raid Leader and there are no assists in my raid, so I am the only one putting up marks and doing raid warnings. I know its DXE, cos when I started DCing on beasts spawn in DBS HM, I removed ALL addons, except for Grid, GridStatusRaidDebuffs, Clique & DXE and still DC'd. Then I disabled DXE out of the 4, and we started DBS HM again and this time I didn't DC at all. My whole raid uses DXE (but only release versions, not alpha or betas) and they were fine. Is it something that is spamming when such events occur leading to clogging the client and DCing? ATM, I am raiding without DXE, but I'd rather have DXE for HMs, so could you please look into this ASAP? Thank you

Posted Apr 23, 2010Correct, only changes to the encounters can be distributed. If we change the guts of the addon they have to update. Right now some changes were made to the format for the encounter tables so if they're not running a more recent version you won't be able to distribute to them.

Posted Apr 23, 2010@Shefki Ok, so changes like "- Lich King (61):" are distributable, but changes like "- Invoker:" are not?

Posted Apr 22, 2010@Niightblade, The encounters are implemented as a bunch of tables with data that tells the core how to implement the encounter. When someone distributes an encounter that table is serialized and sent to the raid/person selected.

Posted May 3, 2010I don't need DXE to spam raid chat or raid warnings when that I'm in Deathwhisper's Death and Decay for example.
And Gunship? Good lord the spam.
I'm finding myself having to turn stuff off to not be spammed by it.

Posted Apr 21, 2010The greyed out menu is a Blizzard bug. Guess I need to apply the workaround to DXE. /sigh

Posted Apr 21, 2010Disregard anything I posted before. It has somehow fixed itself, and I can select everything in the version check window.

Posted Apr 21, 2010Nvm, I see them, they are just greyed out, very difficult to see. I cannot select them either, even though Citadel is loaded, and I am in front of Valithria, targeting her. I can still distribute the updates via the config menu, I just cannot see Vlithria, Sindragosa, or Stinky (selection stops after Saurfang).

Posted Apr 21, 2010@nscxaoc, it's in there for me. You sure the Citadel module is loaded? Also are you sure you're looking in the Citadel submenu?

Posted Apr 20, 2010The distributor times out if there's no one to send it to. I changed the comm prefix in version 480 (basically any alpha version right now) so that anyone with a version <480 will not respond to a send request. So if you're the only one with the alpha version and the rest of the raid has release, your distributor send requests won't be received by anyone, and then timeout because you didn't get any accept responses. A lot of new features have been added to the alpha version that just wouldn't work on the release version so the addon has to prevent receiving incompatible encounter definitions.

Posted Apr 19, 2010buddha727, I've had issues with that for the LK. I just haven't bothered to get around to upping the timeout. I think the mods have gotten large enough for some of these fights that it's causing the problem.

Posted Apr 19, 2010Just curious if there is an issue with the distributor timing out. Have always been able to distribute to those in raid with me but every since I upgraded to Windows7 I have not been able to. Could that be an issue with Windows7 or something else?
