Posted Apr 11, 2008Thanks for taking the time to look into this. DHUD2 was build on top of DHUD so I have look at the way it was done, but it seems some of the changes I made stop it from working. I have looked at other addons and at Blizz frames, but still can't get to find the problem. I have used the functins that in theory are needed and it's implementation is very similar to that on DHUD. I am starting to think that is a problem on the DHUD2.xml and the relation between the frames there and the dropdown function.

Posted Apr 4, 2008What version did you download? Version 0.91b has casting bars but they are buggy, and you can not change the layout. Version 1.0b has NO cast bars working yet and it's a release so you can test the new Layout options. There are 3 sets of bars.
1st Set for Player and target. U can choose to have the player centerd, to the right or to the left (target bars will change acordingly). In centerd u can choose if life goes to tle left (HL-PR) or to the right (HR-PL). (H=health, P=power, L=left, R=right). If left or right, u can chose if the inner bar shows health (HI-PO) or power (HO-PI).
2nd Set for pet bars, which follow the same pattern.
3rd Set. 2 new bars outermost (1 left 1 right). Each bar can track either targettarget ot focus status.

Posted Apr 3, 2008Ok I have been using the old DHUD bar since I started playing and wont work anymore after 2.4 patch. I love this addon but the only problem i'm having is getting my health and energy to show on the left bars, and target's health and rage or whatever in the right. The way it is now is my health and target's on the left and my energy and rage on right. Its very confusing. How can i change this please?

Posted Apr 3, 2008If u are using version 0.91b you can not change the default layout as u could on the original DHUD. Version 1.0b does include the options to change the layout. Scince it is a BETA release I stil have version 0.91b as the default download, so if u wanna test the new layout funtionality you need to get version 1.0b. I have added a more configurable layout with more layout configuration options.

Posted Apr 2, 2008It could use the following additions:
Debuff indicators (similar to the buff ones, but perhaps on the other side...?)
A weapon buff indicator (I'm a shaman)
Totem indicators
And the following fixes:
The shield indicators go black when in combat
The cast bar doesn't reflect knockback
Otherwise I really like it. Nice and clean.

Posted Apr 3, 2008The debuff indicators has never been a used concept in DHUD adn the way debuff works is diferent to what the buff indicators are used for. The idea behind the buff indicators is to remind you that a buff is about to expire and that is why u can set the "remaining time" filter. Debuffs would have to be filterd some how.. time.. perhaps the ones u can remove your self... Before adding them the concept of what woudl they show and for waht would need to be defined. I would gladly talk about the subject to see if we can come with an idea.
Shamans.. totems.. weapon buffs... yes this has been pointed out by my premiun tester (my bro, who has a totem). At this point I have no idea who the game treats the weapon buffs and totems but I am gona look into this matter. I have added it to my ToDo list.
The black square bug and castbar functionallity have been revised in the new BETA release. The balck square bug has been resolved and when I finally finish recodeing the cast batrs (there is a new target castbar!!) I hope to have cast delays working properly.

Posted Mar 31, 2008Hello and thanks for using this addon.
I have just posted a new BETA release of the DHUD2. Major changes include the option to change the layout and the addition of 2 new bars placed outmost and which can track targetTarget and Focus status (u can choose what to track). The ode was split into smaller files to make it easier if some wants to give a hand codeing and a lot of the functions where revised and recoded.
What will the final release will have? I am currently working at a target cast bar and that will compelte the new version added functionality. As stated on previuos post I will also add back MobHealth2 compatibility.
Please remember that it is a BETA release so probably u will encounter bugs on it (for starters I know the bar's text are not properly positioned), but your feedback is very important to fix them.

Posted Mar 31, 2008@Maischter: I have never look at Metahud so I don't know the differences nor likeness, and I probably to lazzy (or maybe proud =P) to download it and find out. So if I you can tell me what features you would like to see implemented I will look into them and hopefully added to my ToDo list. About MobHealth2... Ok the fans win, I will add it to the next full release.
@Zyber: So U would like to hide all the bars text so not to show "100/100 100%" information? Ok, let me look into that... About the guild name of the players I can look into it but will probably get into the last place of my ToDo list and with a low priority.

Posted Mar 29, 2008Any chance you could add an option to not display any text? I like to only display the text for my target. Also, maybe the ability to show the guild name for players.

Posted Mar 28, 2008could you maybe add some metahud features (dhud and metahud are nearly the same) like range display etc..? (range display would be very great)
maybe you could merge metahud with dhud2? becuase metahus is no longer supportet?
and plz support mobinfo2 and mobinfo3 because this are 2 complete different mod authors.. and mobinfo 2 is better i think...

Posted Mar 24, 2008Looking at the mod description above I do not see MobInfo2 listed as being supported as compared with the other DHUD variants. Was MobInfo2 left out?

Posted Mar 24, 2008Xylan,
Yes support for MobInfo2 (MobHealth2) was removed and changed to MobHealth3 which, as stated by its author, has a revised and increased performance algorithm. I will revise this to c if it is worth it to bring back support for MobHealth2 and reimplement it.

Posted Feb 20, 2008For all of those keeping track of the development of the addon this is a short preview of wahat I am working on at the moment:
1. Fixed the black square bug in the player auras
2. Option to change the layout of the bars: original health at one side power at the other, plus now u can choose to show health and power form the player at one side and the target at the other. In both layouts you can swap the health and power bars.
3. Target castbar (proably putting spell name there and for the player cast bar too)
4. 2 new bars, 1 at each side outside the existing ones. U can choose to track target-target or focus health on each one.
5. Target and player drop down menus (for inspect, trade, leave party, etc..) by clicking the health bar.
The bars have been set in the layout and now I am working on placement and the option menu to change it. After that I am working on making them show the correct values, then cast bars and finally dropdown menus. I know development has been slow but work is taking most of my time right now and I have to split my off time between playing wow, coding this and my personal life!

Posted Feb 16, 2008Hey Arcanefoam,
let me say after 3 yrs of playing WOW DHUD2 is one of the best mods I ever used. I am a Rogue and your hud put what I need right in the middle of the screen, so I never have to glance all over the screen to to check stats. I can give 110% of my attention to the fight and still know everything thats going on around me.
However I have a problem my buff Icons on the right side (IE slice and dice & trinket procs) are showing up as a black square with a whie circle in the middle and the count down numbers. bad thing is I dont know what is what. I am running SLI can this be effecting it ? how can I remedy this?
thx again Bud, your hud is total pwnage!!

Posted Feb 16, 2008Hi mofoemth,
The balck squere is a bug in the code related to some malfunction in the way I get the image of the buff to place it in the circle. But I have been trying many things and still haven't been ablt to fix it. I hope a solution will be there in the next release.
Thanks for using the addon!
