Battle Herald

Version: v1.04

by: Klishu [More]

Battle Herald provides features to enhance your battleground/PvP experience!

Battle Herald provides a vocal announcer, with professional voice-overs, for important events as they occur in Battlegrounds and World PvP zones.
In addition to this, Battle Herald adds colourful, animated text alerts in the middle of the screen to help you react much more quicker to whatever happens in the battle. This also replaces the standard text pops in Arathi Basin and The Battle for Gilneas which were not very clear.
It replaces the standard battleground status text at the top of the screen with more visible and meaningful heads-up displays for select battlegrounds (ie. Warsong Gulch, Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin, Eye of the Storm, Isle of Conquest, The Battle for Gilneas and Twin Peaks).
In Capture the Flag maps, mousing over the flag icons displays the name of the flag carrier.

All this can be configured through the Interface Options menu (select Addons and open the Battle Heralds list) which lets you select which alerts you would like to receive as well as set the size of the Battleground info UI. You can unlock/lock the position of the Battleground UI by typing in /bh toggleui and reset its position again with /bh resetui.

Get Battle Herald and start owning your opponents in battlegrounds!

Battle Herald v1.04

Fixed an error that was appearing for "Assaulted" alerts inside Arathi Basin and The Battle for Gilneas.
Fixed a bug where the original Blizzard announcements were not being suppressed in Arathi Basin, The Battle for Gilneas, Tol Barad and Wintergrasp.

Battle Herald v1.03

Release version for WoW Patch 4.2.

Battle Herald v1.02

Fixed the v1.01 bugs. The features should now work correctly.

Battle Herald v1.01

Hovering your mouse cursor over the flag icons in Warsong Gulch and Twin Peaks now displays the name of the flag carrier.
Added the /bh toggleui command which unlocks the Battleground info UI and lets you drag it around the screen. Type it again to lock the UI in place. You can change the position of each battleground's UI separately.
Added the /bh resetui to reset the position of all Battleground info UIs.
Added a Battleground UI Scale slider in the Interface options which lets you set the size of the Battleground ground info UI.
Fixed an error that used to pop up.

Hero status addon

so i don't have to run xtra addons. cause the auto report zero dmg/zero healing is epic. it really cuts down on afk losers & bots

I try to stick to a very definite scope and a limited feature set for my addons as it makes maintaining them easier in the long run. So, for a feature like this, it has to wait for quite a while.

Klishu A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 4 File comments: 14 Uploads: 2	There currently exists a Blizzard bug which sometimes makes the game not deliver any battleground messages/announcements to the interface. When this happens, Battle Herald obviously cannot show any of the prompts or play the appropriate sounds. I apologize for this but there is nothing I can do.

They cannot even change visibility of such a button during combat. So, say, if you're in combat, and the flag carrier drops the flag, the addon cannot hide the flag icon until you're out of combat. Likewise, if the flag carrier changes, and you're in combat, an addon cannot change the flag icon's target until you're out of combat again. Despite this, I'll research ways of doing this, but as far as I know, it would result in a very awkward, non-functioning, implementation.

I know you can click on the blizzard version and it targets the EFC if hes in range. But if its not possible please ignore the request. __________________ The end is never really the end, its the start of something new... Last edited by AsheruWolf : 07-21-11 at 09:48 AM.

I don't believe that function is possible any longer. Pretty sure Blizzard broke the ability to target via an addon a long time ago.
