Who That Who There

Version: 2.7

by: DrunkCadaver [More]

Description:
Watches for the online/offline message seen in chat when RealID friends, regular friends and guild members logon/logoff and displays it in the UIErrorsFrame. The message will be the class color of the character coming online or going offline. RealID friends that logon will have their toon name (and realm name if different from the player's realm) displayed after their real name in the message. Plays a more distinguishable sound for RealID friends and regular friends. RealID friends in a client other than WoW will have their client shown in the logon message.

Sound:
To hear the sounds played, type the following in-game:
/script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Spells\\BlizzardImpact1a.wav")
/script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Spells\\BlizzardImpact1b.wav")
If you don't want the sounds or want to change the sounds, open the LUA file in your choice of text editing program, search for and delete/edit the following lines:
PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Spells\\BlizzardImpact1a.wav")
PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Spells\\BlizzardImpact1b.wav")
If you're interested in a list of sounds used in WoW, I recommend searching Wowpedia.

Why RealID Friends and Regular Friends Only?
When I originally wrote this addon, I was in a guild with 4 or 5 active members. The sounds rarely played. I later joined a guild with 200+ members. Players logon/logoff so often that the addon made it sound like it was raining dead ogres (original sound used). It was annoying so I removed it from guild members.

Localization:
The addon is "localized" for the following clients: English, German, French, Spanish and Russian. If there is an error in the translation or you're using a client not listed, the addon will default to basic online/offline colors (green/red). If you are using a client listed as localized and the most current version of the addon and class colors are not showing up properly for regular friends not including RealID friends, please send me a PM with the class name as it appears in your client.

Other:
Does not support non-letter languages such as Chinese, Japanese, etc. even if you are using one of the localized clients.

RealID friends that are also in your guild will have two messages displayed. Though I can remove the online message, I cannot remove the offline message due to certain information being absent in the logout event. There is no sound played for guild members so I don't see two messages as being a major problem. I'll be leaving both online and offline messages as they are.

There are no libraries, slash commands or options to setup.

Thanks for downloading!

I'll be uploading an update this eventing that will only contain a change to the author's name in the TOC. Downloading the updated mod isn't necessary. Edit: I didn't get a chance yesterday to update the TOC but it will be happening Soon™ Update: TOC updated. Last edited by Helminthophobe : 12-02-10 at 03:34 PM.

I did a quick test of the mod using a normal friend, a RID friend and a guild member and received no errors. Hopefully everything is working correctly. If you receive an error, post it here or PM me with it. I'll jump on correcting any problems as soon as I can. Thanks!

Anyway this mod is a innovative and amazing... I wonder if there could be any method to improve the string-match method to make it support more language. But my poor c++/php knowledge is elapsing... PS: It works fine for my friends with English name as I am using enUS client. __________________ CeeUI: a minimalistic all-class UI

Helminthophobe Premium Member Forum posts: 15 File comments: 11 Uploads: 1	Ok, I figured it out... Still at work though so don't tell the boss. The error is because I don't have support for localization and unfortunately don't plan (as of right now) to have support for it. When the mod registers a friend coming online/offline, it looks for the english version of their class name specifically, which is obviously different from the german version. This causes the error. I'll update the description so people know it only works with the english version of WoW right now. Version 1.2 of the mod should still work regardless of your version of WoW, but class colors aren't supported in that version. Edit: When I get home, I'll make a change that will make sure the class_color isn't nil. It won't fix the problem but it will remove the error. Last edited by Helminthophobe : 06-14-10 at 11:34 AM.

Class colors are now used for the message. Wish I had done this earlier.
