Tank Buddy  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.1.1
by: Kolthor [More]

IMPORTANT! If you haven't gotten the 2.0 patch with your client yet, the Challenging Shout and Challenging Roar will not be detectable, and will most likely produce an error when loading the addon. IN ADDITION, the "Buff Removal" function will NOT work prior to 2.0 either.
Using version 2.0.2 should be possible though..

Tank Buddy is based on Taunt Buddy by Artun Subasi.
It is an addon that can announce to any channel of choice, whenever your taunt, mocking blow or growl (druids) fails, or whenever you use shield wall, last stand, challenging shout, challenging roar (druids) or lifegiving gem. Furthermore, it can remove any buffs desired, either always, or only in defensive stance/bear form.
To open the menu, just type /tb or /tankbuddy.
Note! Using Taunt Buddy simultaneously with Tank Buddy, might produce unwanted results!

Supported languages:
English (enUK, enUS): 100%
French (frFR): 100%
German (deDE): 95% (Lifegiving Gem might not work)
Traditional Chinese (zhTW): 100%

If you know Spanish, Korean or Simplified Chinese, I'd appreciate any help in translating the variables in the "localization.lua".
Contact me through Curse-Gaming, or in-game if you want to help translate.

Changelog:

2.1.1

Bugfixes:
*Patch 2.xx finally landed in asia, the localization-file has been updated, the Challenging Shout/Roar announcements and buffremoval features should work there too now.

2.1:
Note! Since I have gotten no bug-reports, I'm going to assume that the new features from 2.1b1 works properly.

Bugfixes:
*Removed the "Lifegiving Gem"-tab, from classes other than warriors, since only warriors can use the trinket.

Misc:
*Updated the localization file, it should now be complete for French, German and traditional Chinese.

2.1b1:
Note! This is a beta version, I have not had time to test all new features properly, but I don't expect any critical bugs.

Bugfixes:
*Fixed an error that occurred when disabling Tank Buddy, and relogging.
*Changed the $hp variable output for Lifegiving Gem from 15% of playerhealth, to 1500 hp, since Blizzard changed it to that in WoW 2.0.3.

New features:
*Implemented a new buff removal system. It is now possible to remove any buff desired.
*Added Guild-chat to announcement channels.
*Added a "Disable in battlegrounds"-feature.
*Added a feature to announce if a failed taunt gets recovered with a successful mocking blow.

2.0.5:

*Changed the way "Remove Salvation" works (again). I'm removing the buff by name now, so it shouldn't remove more than salvation anymore. The problem is, it will only work for WoW 2.0+, so until you asian people get your update, I'm sorry.

2.0.4:

*Added the following new variables for Taunt, Growl and Mocking Blow:
- $ttn: Target's Target Name
- $ttl: Target's Target Level
- $ttt: Target's Target Type

2.0.3:

*The variable "$sec" will now work in the Last Stand and Lifegiving Gem announcement texts.
*Added support for announcements, when activating Challenging Shout (Warrior) and Challenging Roar (Druid).

2.0.2:

*Fixed a bug that would cause "Remove Salvation" to remove other buffs, on some clients.
*Fixed some text in the Traditional Chinese version (Thanks again Enix).

2.0.1:

*Fixed a bug that would cause an error using several built-in slash-commands.
*Fixed a bug that conflicted with CTRA raid-frames, xPerl raid-frames, and possibly others as well.
*Added support for Traditional Chinese (Thanks Enix).

2.0:

First release.

Same - sad to say this amazing addon seems to have vanished into the Outdated section. Would love to see a fan update!

Is anyone able to fix this mod to make it post resists again? Everything else I have seen still works just not the chat posts, since Blizzard changed so much with the new chat system.

All you need to do is update the TOC. I use it with my tank as well. Though I have modified it a little to work the way I want it to. Kolthar are you going to update the TOC? If not I would be more than happy to update the TOC for you, and allow people not so addon savy to use it. (I hate loading out of date addons)

Kolthor:

This might be a little belated, but couldn't you have TankBuddy just say how many mobs resisted Righteous Defense? Something like "WARNING - Righteous Defense has been resisted by 1 mob" would work just fine. People know what's hitting them, in most cases.

KnightDemons:
I am currently looking for a way to incorporate failed Righteous Defense's into Tank Buddy as well, however, it's not as straight forward as a normal taunt, since Righteous Defense is an AoE-spell, working on up to 3 enemy's hitting on your friendly target.
I don't want to have it spam the channels with three messages, if all three fails, and getting the mob's level, name and type is not as easy, since you're not actually targeting it, and getting target of target is even harder, if even possible.
Plus, I don't have a paladin, so I have to borrow an account to even test it out.

Re: Bugs - Getting disconnected

Vangard:
Strange.. What locale is your client? Are you using any custom channels? Have you tried deleting TankBuddy.lua and Tankbuddy.lua.bak in "[WoW-folder]\WTF\Account\[Accountname]\SavedVariables\"?

Bugs - Getting disconnected

This mod isn't working correctly for me.

It doesn't report resisted Taunts, though works for MB.

Everytime I use Challenging Shout and Lifegiving Gem, I instantly get disconnected.
