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.

Go to Modules > Hide Blizzard Frames and Uncheck "Buffs/Debuffs" to get the Blizzard buffs to show in addition to the ones on your frame layouts.

You´re partially right. I enabled and disabled the buffs/debuffs option as you described and I had the buffs back! Who would have thought about that...

Buffs/Debuffs are disabled/unchecked by default. The wierd thing is, on my warrior are buffs like normal, on my warlock, priest and DK none visible except those on the pitbull target frames.

Btw, I´m missing some skins.

Probably have some other addon that's disabling them.

{err} means he's using LuaTexts. This means he hasn't updated to beta-12. Health texts in LuaTexts weren't working. Was one of the first things I fixed for beta, so that's why it's not on very many peoples radars.

DogTags shows errors as [err]. The distinction was made to help us know which text provider someone is using when they run into a problem.

On All the nameplates (target, focus, player, pet, etc) the health value text is being displayed as {err} Is there a fix for this? Wondering if it is something small I missed somewhere.

Are your texts written as DogTags?

If so are you certain that you Turned DogTags on and turned Lua Texts Off under Modules?

Did you update your PB4 yesterday or today? There was a bug in the DogTags library that was causing some issues, but was updated in the latest (yesterdays) release.

I am pretty sure that I used the latest version. I downloaded whichever version was available at about 8pm CST last night here on curse. I will double check when I get home.

Also I am not familar with dog tags. I didnt do anything custom with texts that I know of. My PB4 config is pretty out of the box.

So do I need to update to the "beta-12" version to fix my issue?

I am pretty sure I have the "beta-12" version. I used the latest version from Curse. I downloaded it last night (Oct 12) at 8pm CST. Unless there was another version of PB4 added after then, I have the latest and greatest.

Is it possible you didn't install it on the right place? If you're on Windows 7 that's easy to do. Check the official UI & Macros forum, there's a guide there that will direct you to the correct place to put the addon.

I'd like to be able to make a text to just show my current level. I've been trying to modify the "Class: Short level and race", but I keep getting errors, and can't work out which bits of the code to leave in.

Still havn't worked out how to do it, in case I didn't make it clear.
With the "Class: Short level and race" code, it shows level and race, I just want it to show level.

Sorry for pestering

I know its possible but alas, I am not the LUA expert here, so I don't want to guess and mess it up for you. (And Shefki is at work)

You may get a faster response on the UI and Macros forum, or one of the forums set up for LUA texts (elitest jerks/wowace)

Hi all, long time PB3 user here getting up to speed on PB4 (yeah I know, I waited long enough right? lol). So I'm trying to convert to the new luatext and I've mostly got the hang of it, but not sure if I'm either using the wrong code or maybe I have my font too big and it's just hiding. So in PB3 on my Target frame I had the following items attached to the health bar for text

name dogtag:

[Level:DifficultyColor] [Name] [DruidForm:Paren] [(AFK or DND):Angle]

health dogtag:

[HP:VeryShort] | [Status | PercentHP:Percent]

If my target was AFK for example I would get "70 Someplayer AFK 12:03"

Now for Lua:name I have

local r1,g1,b1 = DifficultyColor(unit) return '|cff%02x%02x%02x%s|r %s%s%s',r1,g1,b1,Level(unit),Name(unit),Angle(AFK(unit) or DND(unit))

and for Lua:health I have

local s = Status(unit) if s then return s end local cur, max = HP(unit), MaxHP(unit)

Now I see in my example "70 Someplayer <Away...." as it runs into the HP display. What can I do to get Away to show as AFK and get the time to show?

Can you provide me a copy of the offending config file. Click on the Wowace.com link above (Development site), nagivate to tickets, open a ticket and attach the file to the ticket. You can use your username/password from curse on wowace.com (wowace.com is actually hosted by curse).

Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on. Maybe a permissions issue? I keep a monthly backup of my interface and WTF folder, but even rolling back to those does nothing. It's really odd.

FS checks come back clean. Offloading entire WoW install to secondary and tertiary drives offer no relief. Bleh. Here we go again.

Seems every time there's a major update, I lose my settings. I checked the addons dev page, and did what it said in the faq, but pitbull still won't accept my old config files. Am I missing something? Shouldn't pitbull4 -> pitbull4 be an easy upgrade?

I have files from three separate dates I'm trying to replace it with. Non work. =/
