PitBull Unit Frames 4.0
PitBull Unit Frames 4.0
Woof. Arf. Yip.
Getting Started:
You can help translate PitBull for your language with the localization tool.
Classic
PitBull works with WoW Classic! Classic Era/Vanilla is supported in
v4.3.x-vanilla releases. Cataclysm Classic is supported in v4.2.x releases
(the same releases retail use).
Classic Era caveats:
- Aura duration is not available from the API, so PitBull uses LibClassicDurations to show them. The duration can be inaccurate if it's affected by rank or talents.
- Cast info is only available for your spells from the API. PitBull uses LibClassicCasterino to show cast bars for other units, but this can be inaccurate since there is a lot of guess-work involved.

Posted Jul 8, 2010however after testing it recently, side by side w/ grid, it appears that grid updates players hp's about a tenth or so of a second faster. while this may not seem like a big deal, it would be a great help to be able to increase the refresh rate of the bars...
just a thought, as i find pitbull amazing, and would prefer to use it over anything else

Posted Jul 7, 2010Been loving Pitbull for quite a while now...thanks so much for the addon!
One issue that seems to have cropped up for me since I updated, though: I have a bar setup on all frames in which the player/NPC name, level text, and class are all shown, along with a 3d portrait. In previous versions, the portrait would be behind the text, but now it's in front, so much of that text is obscured.
Is there a 'layer' or 'view level depth' or 'z' option or something that I'm missing? I haven't changed any other settings, by the way - just updated. I need that portrait 'behind' everything else so I can see the text data.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Posted Jul 7, 2010Guildies that had issues with lockups on encounters with bossX units all had the issues go away the moment I forced them to upgrade to beta10. Some had the same issues and werent running PB at all dunno how those fixed it. As for myself, my pre-beta10 builds only caused lots of lua errors, no crashes or lockups.

Posted Jul 6, 2010@ulrich_ and @zoink2, If you're sure you're updated I have no idea why you're having problems on those fights. I'm not having any problems and neither are other people in my guild using PitBull4. Please verify your installed version by typing /pb in the game and checking the Version listed in the top right corner of the dialog. If you have beta10 then be sure to turn on Lua errors (and preferably install some sort of error tracker such as BugSack or Swatter). See if you're getting a lot of errors, which would indicate the problems.

Posted Jul 6, 2010I'm having the same problems Ulrich is having: SERIOUS lag on two specific locations/encounters. At Gunship in ICC and Halion my screen seemingly freezes, but might move a frame or so after several seconds. One time it was like that for the duration of the Gunship battle, but it's usually a freeze and a DC.
I took a wild guess since the only common denominator between the two encounters were the "bossframe" thingy in the upper righthand corner of the screen, and disabled Pitbull. Not had a single freeze after. And this was after consistantly locking up each and everytime the second we pulled Halion for four times in a row..

Posted Jul 6, 2010@Shefki: Yes, I'm 110% sure. I deleted my old pitbull folders in the interface/addon directory and copied beta10 in.
Could it be a combination of pitbull4 and some other addon?

Posted Jul 6, 2010I meant using "|T..|t", not by modifying the results of the aura module. Thus the approximation. I do this to add a third aura display: debuffs, hots, and shields. And texts can be shown only when the mouse is over.
As for the UNIT_COMBAT, thanks! That was easy; sorry I had to ask about it :)

Posted Jul 5, 2010@Kitjan, Really he can't do it with LuaTexts, the frames get rebuilt on every UNIT_AURA and he can't guarantee that he'll get UNIT_AURA after the Aura module. So it'd be unreliable at best. I thought about telling him to do it.
As far as the UNIT_COMBAT, just add it in the Modules/LuaTexts config section.

Posted Jul 5, 2010How can i get a text to update on UNIT_COMBAT? It's not in the dropdown list, is there any other way to register a text for an event?

Posted Jul 5, 2010@angrysteel: you can approximate it with some clever lua texts, though.
@luarookie: read the ticket, there is a workaround in there

Posted Jul 5, 2010@angrysteel, not at this time. Feel free to open a ticket.
@luarookie, Sounds like this problem, which is probably a bug in Ace3 that we've never been able to track down: http://www.wowace.com/addons/pitbull4/tickets/438-dog-tag-text-edit-box-not-showing-text/
@ulrich_, Can't say that I've experienced this. Are you sure you've updated to beta10? beta9 would generate errors on events from the boss1-4 events, that were never generated by WoW until 3.3.5. That would cause the problems you're describing and Halion does have boss frames.

Posted Jul 5, 2010In the latest patch I've experiencing my FPS dropping down below 10 then WoW crashing.
Happend on a few fights in ICC, but does it all the time on Halion.
I noticed when I disabled Pitbull4 on the Halion fight I didn't have any FPS problems nor crashes.
I'm using Beta 10.
Anyone else experienced this?

Posted Jul 5, 2010I have been using PB for a few years now, so I am fairly familiar with the GUI, but I have managed to do something today I cant track down. I started a new toon and tried to start editing some of the LUA texts, but not only can I not edit them (when I click in the text box the cursor is unresponsive and it wont accept keyboard input) but all my presets (i.e. "LUA:Class") are in German ("LUA:Klasse). I disabled all other mods and still I have this problem and only with PB4 (latest version within a few days). Thanks in advance.

Posted Jul 5, 2010Pitbull is the only Frames Addon i'm currently running my bars are bartender4. I'm not sure if another addon is interfering but its annoying.
any ideas on how to fix this? if not is there a macro i can make to enable / disable the hide blizz frames module quickly instead of going through the whole process?
Thanks.

Posted Jul 6, 2010I'll use one of the other combo point mods that allow you to move them anywhere on your screen.
