Scorchio! 2

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

Note: as of Jan 2021, Scorchio has been flagged as abandoned due to the original author not carrying over her account to the new Overwolf system. Overwolf refuses to undo this. It isn't possible to release new versions while it's flagged as abandoned - they never get packaged. The original author flagged the project as "All Rights Reserved", so I'm not sure whether Overwolf would allow me to create a new forked version, even if I wanted to. Ultimately, the best path for everyone is probably to move on from Scorchio and build what you need around something like WeakAuras or TellMeWhen. -ywfn666

Scorchio2 is an addon for Mages that tracks Living Bomb, Nether Tempest, Ignite, Slow, Flamestrike (Flame Patch and snare), and Polymorph on multiple mobs, and can give you warnings and notifications when the debuffs need reapplying, or have expired completely. Scorchio can also provide bars for personal buffs/procs/summons: Clearcasting, Heating Up, Hot Streak!, Brain Freeze, Fingers of Frost, Combustion, Icy Veins, Arcane Power, Rune of Power, and Mirror Image. Up to three anchors are available for use (targeted, non-targeted, and buffs), and the sort order for bars within each anchor is customizable.

Use /scorchio2, or Blizzard's Addons configuration window to configure Scorchio2.

Localization Help Needed!

Lots of work has gone into translation, but there's still some left to do. Localizations are easy to submit on the WowAce Localization Page, and help many users. Please help with this if you're able. And thanks to everyone who's helped so far!

yes. both warning text and warning sound.

the warning text repetitively pops on the screen as the debuff is expiring, so does the warning sound. it pops up really fast in the last 2 second.

I think you're looking for MageAlert, which is no longer being updated.

How do I get the old sound of it just saying the proc rather than some stupid noise?

just deactivate the sound - the "old" proc sound was the sound effect of the proc itself (at least that worked for me).

No, at the moment there's no notify for that information. I may add the function in a later build though.

http://videos.shark5060.net/scorchio.mp4

~15 minutes ago in ulduar while fightin XT-002. You can see some things happen there:

0.18 - Space where living bomb should be
0.25 - Living Bomb appears
0.27 - Living bomb gets overwritten by Clearcasting
0.35 - Hot Streak appears only half filled (so it should have appeared ~5 secounds before)

everything with Both Debug options enabled.

Thanks for this! I can definitely see the problem, and it does look more and more like it's a LibBars issue - I just don't have the control over the bars to make them do things like that! :)

Thanks - I'll correct that in the next commit... And if you want to localise Scorchio! 2 for Russian, that'd be awesome - just send me the file when you've completed it and I'll add it to the project! Thanks!

Kay, tested the "Debug" Version in Obsi25 some minutes ago.
- The Warning Messages are displayed always, regardless if the bar is shown or not
- The Sound appears, regardless if the bar is shown or not
- It happens both with Classic and Modern Settings
- When the bar (in my case it was Living bomb) is not displayed, there is a "space" - the bar is there, but not shown.
- When i go on running/casting/whatever the bar appears ~5 seconds later.
- Happens to Scorch and Living Bomb so far, didn't saw it happening to Hot Steak.

I didn't test the "agressive" settings yet, but maybe these infos do help a bit

Given that everything Scorchio! 2 does seems to occur (noises, warnings, etc.) correctly and as expected and that a space appears for the bar, I'm beginning to think this may be a LibBars issue. I only have certain control over the bars, and once I've fired a NewBar message, the creation and drawing the bar is up to LibBars, not me - if a space is being created, it looks like LibBars is on the case, but not quite doing the full job.

I don't want to shirk responsibility, or pass the buck, but all the same - I've contacted Antiarc, the creator of LibBars and he's a great guy so hopefully he'll be able to help us with some thoughts and advice.

Until then, thanks to everyone for reporting the issue. I'd love to hear from: a) more people suffering the problem (so we can get more data) and b) people who are NOT suffering the issue, so I know it's intermittent and difficult to pin down so far!

For those of you having issues with:

a) Disappearing bars, or
b) Bars not appearing until late

Please download this debug build of Scorchio! 2 : http://www.wowace.com/addons/scorchio2/files/86-r44/

In the configuration window is a Debug option, with two checkboxes, to increase the aggressiveness we run ScanAuras. Please check both of these option and test the addon again.

Let me know if:

a) Aggressive scanning helps/solves your issues,
b) it has a noticeable hit on perfomance,
c) if you see "ScanAuras is already running..." printed in the chat window at all

Thanks.

I updated scorchio 2 and now everything has gone to hell. Before i had my target, not my target, and debuffs selected and they would work perfectly without overlapping. They are now overlapping. Is there a way I can make them work together so they dont overlap?
Please use stupid people terms =]

If you mean the bars overlap each other, it's because Scorchio! 2 now supports multiple anchors. You'll need to move them to where you want them.

Type /scorchio2
In the dialog box that appears, select the anchor you want to move on the left (either Targeted, Non-targeted or Buffs, written in white in the list)
Click the red "Toggle anchor" button. Click "Test Bars" if you want to see some bars for placement.
Move the anchor to where you want it to be by dragging it.
Click toggle anchor again and select another one to move.

Alternatively, click on "Classic Anchors" on the right side of the dialog box and they'll all be on one anchor and not risk overlapping.

Classic Anchors - is there 50%Alfa on debuffs on nontargeted mobs as it was before? :)
