TauntMaster  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 4.1.1
by: prodigy [More]

TM can be customized to your needs. Click the minimap button or type /tauntmaster or /tm to open the menu.

TauntMaster is a threat-management addon. It automatically displays a button/healthbar for every member of your party or raid.
If the party/raid member begins to gain more threat than the tank, their button turns yellow.
If they begin to insecurely tank, it turns orange.
If they are securely tanking, it turns red.
If another party member gains aggro, simply click their button and TauntMaster will automatically taunt their target off of them.

Pre-Programmed Spells
Taunt Master is pre-programmed to cast the following taunts on whichever party or raid member you click (although in v4.1.0 you can program your own spells and macros):

All Classes:
Ctrl-Click: Assist

Death Knight:
Left Click: Dark Command
Right Click: Death Grip

Druid:
Left Click: Growl
Rigth Click: Challenging Roar

Paladin:
Left Click: Hand of Reckoning
Right Click: Righteous Defense
Ctrl Click: Hand of Protection

Warrior:
Left Click: Taunt
Right Click: Intervene
Shift-Left Click: Challenging Shout

Shortcuts:
/tm - opens up the configuration menu
/tm show - shows tauntmaster
/tm hide - hides tauntmaster
/tm toggle - hides TM if shown, shows TM if hidden
/tm spells - opens up the spell bindings menu
/tm display - opens up the display customization menu
/tm raid - opens up the raid warnings menu

Customizing Spells/Macros:
1. Open up the spell bindings menu to set your own spells and macros to whichever mouse buttons you want.
2. Click which mouse button you'd like to program and enter the exact name of the spell or enter in the macro in the edit box.
3. If you enter a spell name, you MUST select a target
-if you want to cast the spell on a friend (like Righteous Defense or Intervene) then click friend ([@mouseover])
-if you want to cast the spell on an enemy (like taunt, death grip, etc.) click enemy ([@mouseovertarget])
4. Then select the appropriate checkbox for a spell or macro.
5. Finally, press the set button, to save your changes.

The /tm hide/show trick works for me as well. Also, if the group makeup changes during the run, the process must be repeated to get the correct members listed again.

This addon is, for me, an absolute tanking essential. Thank you so much for writing it!

In the mean time, I have to add to the comments to maybe assist you in resolving the issue where the taunts do not work - due probably cause TM displays "unknown entity" for all party members except myself - it does not matter if we are on the same or different realms.

Many thanks again for your supreme hard work!

I can confirm this situation and also have a screenshot showing this phenomenon. It made for interesting tanking yesterday against 2 uber dps guild members rofl but at least I know they could handle themselves

I don't know what the issue is at the moment, but I will be looking into it. Another user has suggested using /tm hide and then /tm show. It worked for him!

Thanks for letting me know!

4.0.3 and cross realm members

After the 4.0.3 patch went into place whenever I get a group with any person from a different realm all other party members are listed as unknown entity and none of the taunt functions work. If the party members are from the same realm all is fine.

... just did a VoA 25, which obviously has all from the same realm, and 80% of the spots were "unknown entity" and the rest were a different toons name repeated 5-6 times. I have a screenshot if that would be helpful.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

While you're working on the code. Do you think that you could add an option to place the anchor in upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right? So that the units grow from there instead of the center anchor that we currently have.

I just don't like the center anchor as when I run 25, or WG I end up with TM unit frames all over the place.

Thanks for all your work on the addon.

Patch Fixes

To all of you who are having errors: I am working on it.

Try downloading the latest version that I uploaded today (Oct 18). No guarantees that it will fix everything that is broken, but I know it should take care of the issues with druids. I am beginning the oh-so-tedious process of renovating all the code to make it much more efficient and more patch-friendly, but I don't expect it to be complete for a while.

Also, to the special few of you who have given donations - a big THANKS!! You are the motivation to get this working.
