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.

As an addendum to my post about the range fader below, I have discovered that the reason friendly frames and NPC's were fading even when close to me was because I had the range fader set at "Custom spell". Apparently, since I cannot cast Arcane Blast on friendly targets or NPC's, the program sees them as out of range, and thus causes them to fade.
Im going to try Range Fader 2. Thanks
The fader option, for some unknown reason, is fading all of my frames except the border of the player frame. The odd thing is, every frame was cloned from a template.
edit- Ok, now I just log in, and my pet border is not fading. Which was fading correctly earlier this morning. Also, I've got no messages on my bug stack.I just logged in with PitBull4 disabled and I'm getting no minimap icon, not that I expected to get one. So it sounds like PItBull4 was still enabled, sounds like you disabled all the modules, but not the main addon.
We have no control of the addon panel at the character selection screen. However, I can assure you that if you disable the main PitBull4 addon that none of the others will load. They are all only loaded by the main PitBull4 addon and will not load if it is not present. I do this all the time to disable PitBull4 for testing purposes.
But found a wierd bug. I was doing the quest in Tanaris for the raptor mount, specifically http://www.wowhead.com/quest=13904 and wasn't able to pick up the eggs. No gear icon, no sparkling light over the egg. Since PB4 was the latest thing I'd installed (after checking that I wasn't still in a raid) I logged out, disabled all the Pitbull 4 items, logged back in and was able to pick up the eggs. Unsure so far if it's just this particular gathering quest or if other types of gathering are also affected. Maybe I have something selected in the config that's causing this?
Also, while PB4 was disabled at the Add-On screen I still had the mini-map icon. Seems like that should have disappeared as well if everything had been disabled. The icon brought up the config and threw no errors, but with all the modules disabled it was pretty useless.
Lastly, is there any way to have a core PB4 item in the Add-On checklist so if you uncheck it, it automatically disables all the dependency modules? Just laziness, but it would be nice so you don't have to uncheck the 20 or so PB modules individually.
Thanks, and keep up the great work!
If you want colors you need:
local r,g,b = DifficultyColor(unit)
return "|cff%02x%02x%02x%s|r",r,g,b,Leve(unit)
Both of those only need the UNIT_LEVEL event turned on.
@CitadelRunner, Try PitBull4_RangeFader2: http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/pitbull4_rangefader2.aspx
Might be more along the lines of what you want.
I have noticed that with the range based opacity only works and will go as low as the minimum opacity set. The problem here is that with minimum opacity set at anything less than 100, all friendly targets and NPC's are at that lowest set minimum opacity regardless of their range. I want the range fading feature, BUT, I dont want friendly NPCs and targets to be faded. How do we overcome this?
Top of the code is probably the easiest place to put it.
If you mean showing auras that are cast by the player you could setup a filter that filters using the Filter type Caster and tests that the caster is player. Or you can use the Mine filter type if you want to avoid seeing your pets and/or vehicle auras as well.

Is there a plan to implement boss frames to use with pitbull ? I don't mean all raid bosses like raid addons, I just mean for blizzard boss frames like the gunship battle in ICC.
How can I upload a custom font?
