Version: 4.23
by: Smacker, jimwebb9, Member_4, Meorawr

The official 5.0 release will be ready in a couple of weeks time for general testing. Until then an unofficial patch is available here.

Credits

How to Use
Tutorials will be written and linked here soon, stay tuned!

Version 4.23

TOC bump to 4.3.

Bug Fixes:
Fixed an issue with linked auras where multiple auras in the chain are disabled. Probably.
Fixed a large amount of debuff ID types.
Fixed divide by zero issue with PowerAurasRole.lua, and any other possible issues with Health/Power type auras.
Fixed a possible issue with the stances dropdown not filling correctly.

Version 4.22

Additions:
Added Invert Timer support to Totems. That's right Shamans, I love you.
Limited Strata support has been patched in, there's no configuration element for this (it's unsupported). To change the strata either export an aura, modify the export string (add "strata:LOW;" to the end, replacing LOW with the desired strata) and reimport, or modify your saved variables.
Aura #182 was missing. This has been rectified.

Changes:
Fixed a bug with chat output when a sound file was loaded and played but the API said otherwise.
Aura glow defaults to off.
Updated tooltip for Pet Stance type.

Removals:
Removed some unused files.

Version 4.21

This release is 4.2 compatible.

Additions:
Added Pet Stance activation type, which will activate if your pet is in Aggressive/Assist/Defensive/Passive mode.

Changes:
Removed 4.1 compatibility code.
Minor changes to Blizzard options UI, to compensate for the ridiculously large amount of weight it put on.
Pulse animation (while not in Old Animations mode) has had some minor changes done to it, it is now similar to the Blizzard one in terms of scale and smooths a little bit differently. These changes have effectively fixed the animation to prevent animations flickering.

Bug Fixes:
Buffs and debuffs are now properly checked on the whole group.
Happiness auras are gone. Really now. If you had them, they'll be fixed, I PROMISE.
Aura exports should fail less.

Version 4.20

This version has the codename "Yo dawg I heard you like updates".

Bug Fixes:
Blizzard bumped the client version number in their most recent fast patch which triggered some 4.2 PTR compatibility code to activate, this in turn may have inadvertently broken Spell Alert auras. Hence the fix.

Version 4.19

Bug Fixes:

Holy Power should be working again, sorry guys. We didn't pick this up in the testing since there were no changes to the UI.

Version 4.18

Additions:

Higher quality versions of Blizzard's spell overlay textures have been included, as well as some new ones.

Changes:

Multiple default settings have been modified, including but not limited to Locked/Unlocked Auras, Not Resting and Allow Inspections.
The Pulse animation has had some improvements done to it behind the scenes. It's still broken as a result of the API changes.
Text Auras have had their animations forcefully disabled until Blizzard fixes the animation bugs.

Bug Fixes:

Players using Spell Cooldown auras for pet abilities should once again find that their auras do not need the friendly target condition to be met.
Spell Cooldown auras should no longer freak out if the spell is referenced as an ID number, but no longer exists.

Known Issues:

None.

Version 4.17

This release is compatible with the 4.1 patch, it is not backwards compatible with the 4.0 client.

There are known issues with this release dealing with animations, these appear to be due to bugs within the animation API itself and the only known workaround is to switch on Old Animations.

ADDED: A new option is available which will adjust the behaviour of the export system, if you were experiencing a bug where your aura exports were empty then you should enable this as a workaround.
ADDED: Unit Match activation type. This is still a beta quality activation type and may not always perform as expected, please report any bugs through the ticket system on Curse.
ADDED: Couple more debuff ID's.
CHANGE: Action usable macro fix has been reverted, caused more issues than it solved.
REMOVED: Animation FPS slider, as Blizzard has dropped support for this.

Version 4.16a

FIX: Stacks work again, sorry guys!

Version 4.16

ADDED: Lots of class and engineering debuff ID's have been added, credit goes to Vaugn2 for assisting us greatly with this.
ADDED: Ability to track Buff Type.
ADDED: Stacks can now be displayed in their original sizing format - check the "Wider Digits" box to do so.
CHANGE: Export dialog will now display a reason for transfer failure.
CHANGE: Export dialog also now shows a timer, and correctly updates even if the dialog is closed.
FIX: Spell Alert now functions properly with procs such as Lava Surge!
FIX: Now works with the 4.1 PTR (there is an issue with animations on the PTR, use the Old Animations to bypass this).
FIX: Auras should now initialize correctly and hopefully will not require a reload to work properly.
FIX: Rare import bug regarding stacks has been corrected.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info, Dridzt, that helped. Also I figured out that even though the talent is called Nightfall, the buff it casts is called Shadow Trance so once I plugged that in, it worked like a charm.

Do you get a buff-icon when nightfall procs?
Mouse over it to see its name.

Then make a new aura, select your preferred graphic on top half of aura editor,
select from the dropdown "Buff", type the name of the buff (or the partial name),
select "ignore uppercase" if you don't want to type it with proper caps,
leave the next of the options as is (especially make sure none of the target, focus, raid or party checkboxes are checked).

#5 + #7 are probably not going to happen.
There's mods that do just that
(enemy spell alert mods, bossmods, combat announcers, combat text addons of all kinds)
I see these abilities as out of scope for Power Auras. [/b]
Thanks for the quick reply! I'm glad development is still underway and look forward to using it in Wrath.

With respect to #5, when configured correctly, your mod runs rings around many of these other boss mods in certain areas. While DBM and BigWigs are great for telling me when Lurker's going to dive or when Phase 2 of the Illidan fight has started, they're seriously lacking in unique and configurable visual and audio cues. When /rw's are constantly auto-spammed out by the raid leader running one of these mods and everything is displayed on similar looking timer bars...it gets rather cumbersome. And since they have to be constantly updated, modding the mods themselves after every update can be a very daunting and time-consuming task.

Spell alert mods and boss mods that I have found and tried just don't have the flexibility your mod does. I can choose a unique sound and put a big honking icon in the middle of the screen when the Essence of Desire puts up a rune shield to tell me "PURGE THIS NOW!" instead of trying to scan for a specific line of text in a sea of text messages or a tiny icon on the mob's frame all while I'm trying to raid heal.

I think it would be very helpful, for example, if I could set it up so it can show an icon when "Spirit Shock" is being cast but not when Deaden is being cast...so I don't have to focus all of my attention to the text on the casting bars (I'm losing those lightning quick reflexes I once had in my teen years).

With #7, I was simply looking for an alternative to always using a texture. "IMMUNE: PHYSICAL" can be more telling than a shield icon, but I can always whip up my own textures. I was hoping for an easier way.

Re: Re: Hello

Tested your version just now a little bit.
All fine.

The Idea with
- Option to combine checks
(display Aura#1 if trigger1 AND trigger2 both true etc)
is super. Its like the buffstacks operator thing.
Hmm this must have then a new frame, there u can add only the events.
One for every line and then u can select the operand(or,and,ornot,andnot) between the lines.

The configframe needs a update, too. For shrunking the editor. I thought of a aura selector frame with little thumbnails, that popups then u click "Select aura". Then u don't need a slider for that. Sounds nice or?

So many ideas and work, but so less time.

I don't found it on curse so i was thinking it was not updated somewhere.
Canceled the projekt on curse now. To direct the people better to one Projekt.
I was just working on an aura what displays the health or mana values.
When u want it i can give u the code for this aura. When i finished testing.
And when u need german localisation i can do it for u. PM me.

Hello Garstiger, nice to see you back.
I tried to contact you on Curse after my last comment to see if you might be interested
in co-authorship or another way to work on the project together.

I'm not particularly fond of Curse in its current incarnation but I could mirror
the files there to make it easier on users that prefer that site.

Regarding mana/health values and other features, they're included in this version.

A short list of features added since your last version (the things you'd added yourself are already in)
- Hiding Auras with rest of interface (Alt+z) for bosskill screenshots.
- New default textures can be added easily by dropping sequentially
named Auraxx.tga files in the PowerAuras\Auras\ folder and restarting the game.
- Option to use the ability/spell/item texture instead of .tga file where available.
- Aggro status added to triggers.
- PvP flag added to triggers.
- 30 more textures + some sounds.
- Custom texture editbox can now accept SpellName (if your own spell) or SpellID and display the respective game texture.
(these can be found on wowhead for example)
- Rage/Energy trigger implemented with upper thresholds.
(aura will display if your rage or energy is > percent you chose)
- Custom timer enabled for action usable. It overrides the calculated timers if used.
(this is to support timers for abilities like Victory Rush that "become available" for a limited time when something else happens:
eg. killing blow but don't have a duration like a normal buff/debuff)
- Stance options for Druid and Rogue(stealth) added (mainly for those that play in 1st person)
and improved stance detection for lower levels.

as well as a bunch of old and new bugfixes.

Things I have on my todo list (no specific time limit though)
- 2-3 more trigger categories (threat will be one of them in wow 3.0)
- Some more visual effects.
- Option to combine checks
(display Aura#1 if trigger1 AND trigger2 both true etc)

Like I said if you would like to work on the project together I'd have no problem with that obviously.
Localization help is also much appreciated.

1) Activation by target creature type or class (demon, undead, hunter, etc.).
2) Activation by target name [tab-targeting fun]

3) "Only if not in combat" bug fixed. If you create a new aura and select "Only if not in combat", it will ignore it and check "Only if in combat." You have to edit it and select "Only if not in combat" again for it to stick.

4) Buff's type for enemy targets (such as "magic")

5) Activation by target casting/channeling a spell by name (/w timer) [very nice for boss fights where you have to interrupt one type of spell being cast but not the other]

6) Texture and timer sizes up to 300%

7) The ability to just put custom text on the screen in a font I select as opposed to having to make a texture ("Run to the OT!", etc.)
#3 is fixed in next minor version (2.5.5c) - thanks for bug report.

#1+#2 I might put an extra trigger in for all of those target properties (name/class/type)
but mod is currently on hold waiting for patch 3.0.

#4 will think about it... same as for 1+2 I'd rather wait to see what's happening with purge/dispell/spellsteal buffs in general in wow 3.x first,
to gauge the usefulness of having aura trigger for enemy buffs.

#5 + #7 are probably not going to happen.
There's mods that do just that
(enemy spell alert mods, bossmods, combat announcers, combat text addons of all kinds)
I see these abilities as out of scope for Power Auras.

I started using this addon a couple of weeks ago and love it!

I set it up to show whenever my trinks go into effect so I know when I'm gonna be pumping out extra damage

Also really handy for certain debuffs on raid bosses, such as Gorefiend. I have it set to where the skull-like texture zooms out, dissapears, appears, zoom out, with the timer below it right in the center of the screen in red letters.
Also good with other stuff, such as Cave-in (gruul) Doom (3rd boss of MH) and a good indicator of when I'm bloodlusted.

Wonder if it's possible, by editing the texture file, to change the font of the timers?

Good work on the addon keep it up

love this addon so far, started using it a few days ago.

only thing i can say is add it so that it only shows YOUR debuffs. usually 2-3 rogues in our raid and i wanna use it to show rupture up, and with 3 rogues rupturing its eh.

keep up the work ;]

I think I did it before, but I recently lost all my WOW settings due to a blue screen (talk about a pain) and can't get it to work any more.
Be sure to select "enemy target" in debuff trigger, or else you only get animation when you got frozen.

Just select Debuff > name: "Frost nova/frozen/Frostbite" ale select enemy target. it should work just fine
