EventAlert  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 4.7.6
by: CurtisTheGreat [More]

The addon will notify you in the middle of your screen with an icon, name of the spell that has procced, the time left on the proc and will make a subtle sound. EventAlert is also able to handle more than one proc at a time (this option was not available in previous versions).

I am not fond of addons that have very complicated installation and setups. The mod should work on install without any config, but if you wish to change any options use the following command: /ea options
To see a more detailed list of what options are avaiable to the mod, just check out the screenshot of the options pane.

This mod tracks the following events/procs:

  • Death Knight
    • Cinderglacier (Runeforging)
    • Dark Transformation
    • Killing Machine
    • Rime (Freezing Fog)
    • Rune Strike
    • Sudden Doom

Quick Backstory: I created this addon as a test for myself as my first "from the ground up" addon. Most of my coding in WoW LUA was taking other addons and just fixing them so they work from minor bugs or whatnot.

Anyhow, I needed a mod that was lightweight and did only what I wanted it to do, and that was warn me when one of my spells or talents procced something I needed. Thus, EventAlert was born. There are likely to be bugs, explosions and not so good things that may come from this mod. I'm sorry in advance! If you find a bug, please let me know so I can fix it.

Also, if anyone finds a spell/talent/etc that they want watched, please let me know and I will add it!

4.7.6
Bugfix: Fixed problem with spell charges not showing up on alerts.
Bugfix: Fixed problem with alerts not showing when options changed without a reload.
Change: Added option to show/hide spell charges.

To see the full change log, view the changelog.txt file included in the EventAlert zip file.

This would work with the Greatness Trinket, yes. ATM the proc isn't in the scope of this addon, but if you wish to add it to your own version, edit the EventAlertSpellArray.lua file.

Open the file in Notebook, click Edit, then Go To. Type in 158. Add the following code to line 158:
Code:
-- Darkmoon Card: Greatness
		if EA_Items["Other"][57345] == nil then EA_Items["Other"][57345] = true end;
Save and close.

I admit, I totally forgot. Thanks for reminding me. haha

Open EventAlertSpellArray.lua with Notepad. Click Edit, then Go To. Type in 126. At line 126 add the following code:
Code:
	-- Nether Protection
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54370] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54370] = true end;
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54371] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54371] = true end;
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54372] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54372] = true end;
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54373] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54373] = true end;
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54374] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54374] = true end;
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54375] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][54375] = true end;
Save and close.


Open EventAlert.lua with Notepad. Click Edit, then Go To. Type in 94. Go to line 94 and below the line: EventAlert_DoAlert(); add in the following code:
Code:
SendChatMessage("I just procced "..arg10.."!", "YELL");
Save and close.


Keep in mind that this can get VERY spammy. I'd suggest not using this too long. haha

A few other minor bugs I've noticed with the new version. In addition to the frame being off, it also appears zoomed in. The text and icon are all a bit larger than the test frame.

As for placement, using the center of the screen as the basis of measurement, it's as if the X-axis distance of where I place the test frame is doubled, and the Y-axis distance is cut in half. So if I place the test frame near the top of the screen and a bit off to the right, when a proc happen, the frame is about half as far I moved it up and even more off to the right (hope that makes sense).

Lastly, the 'Escape' key no longer removes alerts.

Thanks for the report. I'll see what is causing that and go from there.

It's odd you mention the chat addon that is erroring. I noticed last night a couple of my addons errored as well that never did before. They were addons that caught items in the chat windows and reformatted them.

I'm working today and tomorrow, 12 hour shifts, so I prob won't be able to get to this until Wed.

Thanks for the bug report. Any other info you find, please let me know.

Bugs with v4.0.0, unfortunately.

Upgraded from v3.4.9 on a Mage. On first logon, got the welcome/warning frame explaining things, which was fine. Went in and changed the options again because it reset them (as explained).

Before first combat, logged and out. Went into EA's options again on relog...and the changes I made (different sounds, unlocked the frame, etc.) were not saved from before. Had to set the changes I wanted again.

Then went into combat. My character's "Brain Freeze" talent procced (verified using MikScrollingBattleText)...and EA did not alert (as it had in the past with v3.4.9). The frame did not show up and no sound occurred. Instead, an error was thrown up:
ChatIcons-1.0.3\\ChatIcons.lua:47: attempt to call method 'find' (a nil value)\nChatIcons-1.0.3\\ChatIcons.lua:101: in function `ProcessMessage'\nChatIcons-1.0.3\\ChatIcons.lua:113: in function `AddMsgHook'\nChatIcons-1.0.3\\ChatIcons.lua:34: in function `AddMessage'\nEventAlert-4.0\\EventAlert.lua:276: in function `EventAlert_PositionFrames'\nEventAlert-4.0\\EventAlert.lua:121: in function `EventAlert_OnEvent'\n<string>:\"*:OnEvent\":1: in function <[string \"*:OnEvent\"]:1>

Apparently EA v4.0.0 conflicts with ChatIcons (which frankly is an odd mod for this to conflict with). Had no issues with EA v3.4.9 & ChatIcons (or ChatIcons and any other mod I run).
Relogged, went back into /ea opt and sure enough, the options were reset again (well, the "Mimic OmniCC function" option was reset, the different sound I picked was still selected). Hope to see a working v4 soon .

EDIT: was tested on WoW 3.0.9 live, USEng client/server.

I only have 3 points (60% proc) of Tidal Waves here my spec that works great for me, http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=hZ0xxIZx0euVeoxkrIRu this spec is great, i even thinking of droping it down to 2 points (40%) since i dont cast meny HW or LHW as i mostly on raid healing, and so spamming the shit out of chains :P
I'll see what I can do about this. I've had others ask about this as well, but I think there are mods out there that do exactly what you want... to have it show you something when you lose a buff.

I'll see if there is an easy way to put this into my mod, without losing direction of how I want the mod to go. My goal has always been to keep this mod as simple as possible out of the box without having to change any options. If I can stick to that and add what you are wanting, I will.
