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.

Good news! After going through a quick tutorial on lua and wow programming i figured out a way to test if a unit is set to the tank in a 5 man party.

At first i thought I would be able to use the GetPartyAssignment function but that doesn't seem to do anything useful while in a 5 man party. I did however find out what function to use instead of GetPartyAssignment when you are in a 5 man group.

the following example code will check if party1 is assigned as the tank and correctly prints out true if party member 1 is the tank and false otherwise (no role, not in a party, role other than tank). I did not check what happens if in a raid or any other scenarios not mentioned above, but figured i just did this quick test and thought i would share this info with you as its probably what you would need. Hope this helps. I will probably attempt to learn lua and how to actually write a wow addon some more and try to hack together some crappy solution for myself but as i said i don't actually know anything about wow addon stuff LOL, so hopefully whenever you get a chance this will let you add this feature to your awesome addon!

-- my example code

party1IsTank = UnitGroupRolesAssigned("party1")=="TANK";
print("Party 1 is tank:", party1IsTank);

oh ok, i was hoping it was able to filter based on the roles set in the party. Like when you join a random heroic how the tank has the little shield icon on the tanks name in the party frame. I'm not familiar with the wow api though so ill take your word for it. thanks for the response though :)

And yes, setting the tank as focus is what i do right now, but was hoping to be able to free up focus for crowd control or other macros.

Yes you can get this info. No you can't filter on it. We're dependent upon Blizzard's code to do filtering and it doesn't support this. There are ways around this but in general they break in battlegrounds and randoms (e.g. someone leaves and joins while in combat, the filter can't update until you leave combat so new person is excluded).

I´m using the "caith" texture for my bar style and sometimes when I disable certain addons, the texture resets do default style because "caith" is gone. Is there a way to add the texture without installing the addon I disabled? Fyi it was Docsnameplates.

You can already do this. Check out the All About Auras section of the guides on how to build custom filters.

Did not see a way to do this. Maybe it doesn't exist ... Anyways, if it doesn't I have a suggestion. As per (de)buff settings. Could you make the filter where it only tracks that persons own personal buffs. I thought default buff would do this. However it does not work the same as my suggestion. So you could have "none", "mine only", "default", "class only" (which of course would show the buffs for "mine only" as well. If you understand my thinking that is =)

Not to mention in a raid I do like seeing what self buffs each class has up on themselves. I usually have to do this the more manual way and see who it was applied by.

The problem is how Blizzard referenced the graphic. They can change it, but if they do and Blizzard fixes it, it will break it again.

@rakkarage

Just create a "player pet" frame, or disable "replace with user when mounted" or something like that in the pet options. Don't remember the exact name of that, but it basically changes your playerframe to a petframe when you mount the pet. (target-wise, not config-wise)

Is there anyway you can add Elite and Rare boarders around the target icons? Not the 3D models, the regular ones.

There are borders for unit frames in the "Other" section.

If you don't see that there, check to make sure that its enabled on the main add on screen.

Are you using the borders module already and not liking those borders?

Okay, I found what you were talking about, it was hard to even notice because the boarder was so small.

I was kinda hoping for something similar to the original portrait elite/rare from the default ui.
