PitBull Unit Frames 4.0
PitBull Unit Frames 4.0

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.

I guess my issue is this has been in beta since 2009? Are we going to see it as a full release replacement to pitbull 3?
Will things like boss frames be added?
If your busy and unable to fix the config mode issue will someone else be working on it?
Just wondering if this is going to be a dead project so I know what to plan for.
Thanks again for your efforts.

I think there is a difference in Point of View on what is a Beta and what is a release from PB3 to PB4. Shefki is very much a Release is completely complete without things he still wants to add as feature enhancements. So... .its still a Beta.
Boss frames will be added at some point. It has been worked on, but not yet completed.
He is quite busy... but finding someone that has the level of competence that a complex project like PB4 requires that has the kind of time to commit to it..... rather difficult. But serious offers can be PMd to Shefki.
Its certainly not abandoned nor dead at this point. (If it was, Shefki wouldn't have made a point to update it on release day!)
The config modes have been broken for a long time now. The most recent update (2 months ago) only put a band aid on the issue so the addon as a whole could function since patch 4.0.6. Now today I'm getting more issues since patch 4.1 dropped, something related to "hide blizzard frames" module.
Please DO NOT take this as rude, really I love and thank all the contributors for the work and effort they have put into this mod. Just looking for a no BS answer here.
Is this addon going to be updated fully in the near future or should I look for a new unit frame mod.

I believe the alpha is fixed now.

Bump to this. I'd like to know when too :)
117x PitBull4_LuaTexts-v4.0.0-beta25-3-g31a1894\ScriptEnv.lua:130: attempt to compare nil with number
PitBull4_LuaTexts-v4.0.0-beta25-3-g31a1894\LuaTexts.lua:1205: in function <PitBull4_LuaTexts\LuaTexts.lua:1161>
i commented out the lines that were causing problems (scriptenv.lua:130 and luatexts.lua:1201-1209) but it just threw a bunch more errors, this time on log in.
Anyone have a fix or anything? the error is thrown so often that bugsack cant capture errors from any other addons
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);
You could perhaps focus your tank use the Focus target?
