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 Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.
Warning: This project is experimental. Its files will not synchronize across the CurseForge network.
This will not be updated
Nevcairiel and Antiarc will be taking Shadowed Unit Frames over. I believe they handle things better than me.
If you have errors or a suggestion please use the ticket system. While i do my best to answer questions in the comments its not very helpful if i have to read through all comments everytime. Also please consider this article about how to write a proper ticket.
@robbiiii: its in my local copy und will be in the next release.
You can fix the buff problems by going into the config (/suf) then go to "Hide Blizzard" Section and uncheck "Hide Buff Frames". Note: this might require a reload of your UI.
I just have to say wonderful addon. DONT WORRY FRIENDS. Using shadowed layout manager to generate the code from you layout, you can copy the generated text from export, disable shadowed and enable simplistic, and paste the code into import, and you have your exact ui but now its under simplistic. (just requires you to enable advanced in the general tab to get to the layout manager) <3 these frames.
Is there a way to anchor text to the holy power bar instead of the regular power bar? The way I have my ui setup it looks weird now with 3 bars (health, power, holy) so would like to disable my mana bar but still have text showing how much mana I have but would like the text in a different spot than the text that's anchored to my health bar.
Well... I was actually able to avoid reconstructing my frames. I saved my shadowed lua, loaded up with simplistic, then logged out. I then did a compare on the two files, specifically in the player section of the lua. I added the tags for "hpBar", "eclipseBar", "shardBar" (i think these were it) into the correct profile of the lua. Logged back in and it was all good.
It's much easier to do with a good text editor which collapses portions of the lua that you don't wish to deal with. Not sure if it helps anyone or not, but I definitely did not have to reset everything and dealing with text to me is better than resetting.
I tried what you said with my saved layout from Shadowed UF. I renamed it properly for Simplistic, exported it, pasted it into Notepad. Did a profile reset, closed Simplistic, locked frames, and reloaded UI.
Opened Simplistic, checked Advanced, pasted the code into Import window, clicked "Accept".
My UI was imported properly on my warrior. Log onto my lock, checked "Enabled Soul Shard Bar". Get LUA error. No soul shard bar.
Oh well. I'll rebuild my unit frames from scratch one of these weekends :-\
I'd like to add the text for the amount of power my Eclipse has at present to my player bar. I've searched around for what the code would be and tried guessing at all sorts of variations I thought it could be, but I'm just not familiar enough with UI coding and the like I guess.
If that's unclear, I'm looking for the Eclipse Power equivalent of [( )absolutehp].
"If you use this and have a character wich uses one of the new bars (holy power, soul shards etc) you WILL get errors. Don't complain, start from scratch."
There is actually a work around for this. Once you've edited the LUA's and installed the addon, fire up WoW. Open the SUF options. On the General/General tab, select Advanced if it isn't already. Go to the layout manager. On the export tab there will be a large block of text. Copy and paste it into a txt document. Click on the Profiles tab and reset the profile. Close SUF options, lock the frames, and so on. Probably wouldn't hurt to do a /reloadui
Once that's done, go BACK into the SUF options, check Advanced, and go back to the layout manager. Take the block of text from earlier and paste it into the space on the import tab.
BE PATIENT. It will look like your game froze. It did not. It takes 15 to 45 seconds for the import to work, depending on the complexity of the layout. You may have to tweak a few frames to account for the new bars. Using this method, the pallys and locks and whathave you can update and not have to worry about a complete frame overhaul.
Since 4.0.1 I haven't been able to see party frames. I'm wondering if there's some silly setting I missed, or if this is a bug?
Sorry it's not the best screenshot, just trying to point out I have party/raid enabled. At the time I'm in a party with one shaman as well, who is not seen on the unit frames. Likewise there are no raid frames when in a raid but the new Blizz raid frames show.
great great great !
and the string for the guildgroup over the standard buff is
GuildInstanceDifficulty:UnregisterAllEvents()GuildInstanceDifficulty:Hide()
many thanks!

you should post errors with a ticket. not here.

I can second the thing about SUF removing buff/debuff icons.
Anyone not having that problem or know how to fix it?
Thanks again to the guy picking this up and working on it. Much appreciated.
Simplistic Unit Frames blocks blizzard buff/dbuff frames wtf?

Great work, thanks for taking this on. I'm very eager to see party and raid frames working once more. Thanks again!
r7 commit broke tags on my warlock.
tags.lua:1014: bad argument #1 to '?' (string expected, got nil) tags.lua:26: attempt to index field 'eventType' (a nil value) x7
@simmdogg
Holy Power was working for me in r9.
I haven't seen a response to my inquiry regard "Holy Power".
has something been done that I am missing in regards to Pallies and "Holy Power".

you read the description right above your comment?
It says everything works but party and raid frames.
Aviana is working on it, just be patient...
Hey, thanks for keeping this great addon going.
Since 4.0.1 I haven't been able to see party frames. I'm wondering if there's some silly setting I missed, or if this is a bug?

Keep up the great work Aviana.
Thank you!
