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.

Hello, Well I downloaded this addon yesterday and have been looking everywhere to find out how to somehow get or add more combat text fonts for my unit frames, because at the moment I have only 4 different types of font to choose from but when I switch to my other server some how I'm able to choose from 7 or 8 different fonts. So I know there must be a way. Well anyways was just wondering if I could get some help figuring out how to add more fonts to choose from?

Thank you for any help you can provide me in advanced.

The fonts come from Shared Media. I know there are ways to add additional fonts to Shared Media, but I will honestly say I have not done so. Do you have a newer version of Shared Media on one server?

That one shouldn't bee too difficult to give you some pointers for so I'll try.

You should have portraits turned on, and in the middle, at the top.
Portraits and health bars are set to 2-3 whereas the power bar is set to 1
Under other you will find borders and the color I set it to is a dark grey but not black.

Hopefully that will get you started. I am hoping to test vangul's import feature and if it works I'll post all the samples configs I have shown above.

Hi there, first off I wanted to say this is an awesome mod.

I was wondering how to go about making my frame look like the one in the screenshot with the ravaged corpse? Its one of the layout samples above. Im semi new to the mod and have played around a bit, but I cant for the life of me figure out how you got it to look like that, lol.

Any help would be appreciated :)

Don't ever stop updating this addon. This is a very beautiful addon. I have never had issues, never had lag, never had config problems, it is very clear and I think if the updates stopped coming then I would stop using any form of UI addon. I am very pleased with how you can make raid frames, how you can configure portraits and health/mana/experience/rep bars. I currently have my face on top showing with health moderately large and mana taking up the rest.

Thank you so very much for this addon.

Hello I just downloaded this AddOn and I was wondering:In some videos I see people having this AddOn for their Unit Frame thing.However they also have a 3D moving model of their character's head.So I guessed this is what portrait is.I tried o toggle it on but...nothing happens!(same goes for some other configurations) Is this some fail of mine (messing up the AddOn names) or a defect of the file packet and AddOn?If so,how do I fix it?

My guess is that you had an error in your configuration. PitBull is unique in the sense that you create a "type" of unit frame (a layout), and then you can apply that "type" to any unit (player, target, focus, pet, etc.) rather than building each unit frame separately. Chances are that you built your layout and just didn't apply it to any units yet.

Don't worry, that's what we all do when we jump in without referencing the tutorials first. Addons with this much customization potential are generally tough to just jump into.

There are two places you could be toggling portraits.... one is here:

/pb Modules > Portraits
That one turns the ability to use portraits in Pitbull (the whole add on) off and on.

The other place is /pb Layout Editor > Indicators > Portrait
Which is where you turn it off an on for the particular layout you are using.

Since it sounds like you are new to PB, you may want to take a look at the guide linked above which can be quite helpful in learning the ropes.

I have not packed up my bags and stomped off just yet! But there are people that use addons that are frankly... unpleasant, and sometimes you either have to tell them so or you go mad.

I think you are doing a very good job Trilliane. Pitbull is a beautiful addon, nicer than xperl (my opinion). I hope you will support the addon much longer. :)

So is this not being maintained anymore or what? If not please let us know so we can find another appropriate unit frame addon. I haven't been able to use the configure option for something like 3 months. Have you ever tried to configure live in a pve or pvp raid? It's next to impossible unless the raid is standing around doing nothing for long periods of time.

Config mode has not been broken for 3 months, not matter how much you would like to exaggerate the case. (I should know since I made the ticket on the 16th of November) Yes it has been broken for longer than we would like and realize that its inconvenient to have to either build your layout on a singleton and apply it to your raid frames or configure in a live group.

Being someone that is significantly nicer than your post deserves, I have heavily edited my reply to not be as big of a jerk as you have just displayed yourself to be. Let's instead just say that your post has certainly helped me decide just how much time should be given to to this request during this holiday season.

Merry Christmas!

I have a suggestion about the aggro indicator. How about have an option to display aggro the same way you can display other highlights? Currently you can only set aggro to border, health bar, and background. The "normal" setting in other highlights (such as debuffs) will glow the color across the frame.

You could set a higher priority on debuff highlights, so when the tank gets poisoned it replaces the red highlight with the green highlight, etc, etc.

From the FAQ:

What happened to being able to right click off my auras?

With patch 4.0 Blizzard added code protection to the Buff and Debuff frames.(Auras) (This was to prevent add ons from automatically removing buffs for players, which in some situations was a bit exploitive.) The current Aura modules was built around the ability to sort and filter which buffs you see. (So you can exclude seeing some buffs, set it to see which are expiring first, etc.) Unfortunately not all of that same functionality is available with the now protected ability to right-click remove. In order to provide the ability to right-click remove a new Aura module will need to be written. When its implemented you will be able to choose which Aura module you wish to use and know what the limitations are on both. This will take some time to implement. In the meantime you can turn on the default Blizzard Auras, Write a /cancelaura macro or use an additional buff add on that will allow you to right-click remove. We do appreciate your patience.

I cannot rightclick any of my buffs to remove the buff. Is it bug or I need to be setting something.

I'll be honest I don't typically use mouseover macros so it will take me a bit to test it out. I can say this is the first I've heard of the issue thus far.

I can't seem to get mouseover macros working on the target and focus unit frames. I know I had this working at one point (at least on the raid frames) in the past on another character, possibly in V3 of pitbull. Is this still possible? I've tried different strata levels and nothing seems to work. I know the mouseover is working because my target highlights and I get a tooltip, but casting a spell does nothing unless I'm mousing over the actual player on the screen. Was this a Blizzard change?

Thanks

Wish Curse provided a search comments function. I read a few pages and didn't see my issue but apologize if you have answered it farther back.

My party frames are not updating correctly. When someone drops from group and is replaced, the party frames show incorrect names, roles, and class colors. When we do a mounted/vehicle action in a 5man, the part frames correctly reflect the mount/vehicle but when we are done, they party frames are not updating back to correct character names, roles, and class colors.

I have searched the addon options without luck for an option that would force an update/refresh. Any ideas on help for this issue?
