Posted Jun 17, 2010Apparently there is a vehicle event so I don't have to use scanning. It can be reimplemented to use it.

Posted Jun 15, 2010i was trying to configure my grid to show players "in vehicle" for valkyr detection, but it wasn't working at all for some reason. i'm fairly certain the problem isn't my combat log, though, i've had no issues with normal mode or any other events
and for the valkyr warning, i was thinking more along the lines of dxe running a constant vehicle check every .5 seconds for 10 or so seconds after he summons them (the 3rd valkyr lands /really/ late sometimes), just printing out warnings every time it detects a player in vehicle
that might use up too many computer resources, though :(

Posted Jun 15, 2010@Mushgot: I'm not sure why it's not going off every time. It could be that your combat log wasn't working? I'll look into it this week.
It may be possible to make the warning go off when someone gets picked up. The issue is that there is no event to tell when someone has been picked up, so a timer is scheduled to list all players that are in vehicles (picked up by a Val'kyr) after 6.25 seconds. I will try to time when players get picked up and see if the time's are consistent. If they are, I'll add in separate warnings for each player.

Posted Jun 15, 2010the dxe announcement isn't working reliably on hard mode
many times, the warning fails to go off at all - and when it does, only shows up a few seconds after the 3rd valkyr lands (im guessing this is intentional, but the delay sort of defeats the purpose of having the warning to start with)
is there a way to make the valkyr warning go off the second someone gets picked up? (as 3 separate warnings, if necessary)

Posted Jun 15, 2010@Galvin, kollektiv and I both raid with the alphas so very stable. About the only thing you'd notice right now is having to adjust your icon/text size after installing it because of new config options. But that's pretty minor.

Posted Jun 13, 2010@VSUReaper: 5 man encounters will not be made for Wrath. It might be a possibility in Cataclysm.
@suicidalkatt: There's a text justification option in Alerts -> Text.

Posted Jun 3, 2010Great addon. Wondering if there are plugins/modules for 5 man encounters. They are handy for doing achievement runs.
I'm really not looking forward to going back to DBM, even if its just one little part of the addon.

Posted Jun 2, 2010Is it possible to have the text on the warning bars aligned to the center of the bar instead of always to the left?

Posted May 30, 2010@ Pldn, DBM the one that usually create a raid icon for anyone who have marks. The reason why someone in your guild didn't assign the raid icon because that person didn't update their DBM. Every time DBM detected a update from someone else, DBM automatically disabled the auto-assign raid icon to the person that using a old version. It was designed to prevent conflicts with the latest DBM version.

Posted May 28, 2010@Pldn, we've never had a raid mark for that spell. You probably had someone else in the raid running some other boss mod that does that. Feel free to open a ticket requesting that raid mark.
