ShinyBuffs

Version: 1.2.2a

by: Seerah [More]

Features:

skin buffs/debuffs
move buffs/debuffs
change colors, texures, and font
able to use class colors (with support for !ClassColors and CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS)
change size of buffs/debuffs independently
debuff icons are shaded by debuff type (temporary enchant icons shaded tench color, too)
option to display debuff type as border instead of icon shading **new
change the number of buffs per row
able to switch to all white duration text
option to show who your buff is from (only works with valid unitIDs, not some random passerby or guildie not in your party)

See the screenshots for some examples!

Limitations:
These are just the regular, old Blizzard buffs - but prettier! As such, you CAN cancel buffs during combat! However, you cannot rearrange the buffs, filter buffs, etc. The buffs/debuffs are also not movable independently - it's the standard layout, though you can change their sizes to make debuffs more visible in addition to changing where they're all anchored.

Also, the timer bar does not currently move for temporary enchants - it stays at 1. I may figure out a way to put that in in the future, but the API for temporary enchants isn't as friendly as that for normal buffs.

Luceo A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 8 Uploads: 0	Great mod! Far too few buff mods exist that simply beautify the standard Blizzard buffs. A couple of feature requests: The temporary weapon enchants run together with the standard buffs and overlap, so could they be separated? An option to disable the time remaining bar would be nice, since I think it redundant when the timer is displayed. Also, being able to tighten the spacing up would be grand. Thanks again, great mod.

I deactivated the border and now there are big spaces inbetween... Would be great if you could implement this...

Thanks

Yeah, I should be able to add that as an option. Please post this as a feature request at my portal so that it is on the To-Do list.

Re: Re: Compatibility with TitanPanel?

Wow, you're fast!

Anyway, I stopped using TitanPanel after I realized how large it was when looking through the code compared to the LDB alternatives. I'd been using it for so long that I hadn't considered switching. Plus, I really like the way your addon looks in the screenshots. It seems to be exactly what I'm looking for and I didn't expect such a quick response.

In any case, it's good that TitanPanel caused you to fix a bug, even if it was a minor one.

Zidomo A Cliff Giant Forum posts: 76 File comments: 1046 Uploads: 0	v0.2.1 with the vehicle fix....taints and prevents the standard Blizzard icon bars from reappearing after getting out of a (certain) vehicle. WoW 4.0.6 live. After getting out of the "Rebel Cannon" vehicle at the end of the By Blood and Ash quest, tainting was alerted to, ended up with a 300kb+ taint.log file after exiting and importantly, the default Blizzard icon bars failed to reappear. Had to relog to get them back. Unfortunately, as is often the case, the taint.log file entries were not particularly clear. Example for this case: Code: 4/22 18:42:25.812 Global variable BUFF_ROW_SPACING tainted by !FixModSounds - Interface\AddOns\ShinyBuffs\ShinyBuffs.lua:816 4/22 18:42:25.812 Execution tainted by !FixModSounds while reading BUFF_ROW_SPACING - Interface\FrameXML\BuffFrame.lua:379 DebuffButton_UpdateAnchors() 4/22 18:42:25.812 Interface\FrameXML\BuffFrame.lua:167 AuraButton_Update() 4/22 18:42:25.812 Interface\FrameXML\BuffFrame.lua:113 BuffFrame_Update() 4/22 18:42:25.812 Interface\FrameXML\PlayerFrame.lua:354 PlayerFrame_ToPlayerArt() 4/22 18:42:25.812 Interface\FrameXML\PlayerFrame.lua:294 PlayerFrame_UpdateArt() 4/22 18:42:25.812 Interface\FrameXML\PlayerFrame.lua:285 animPostFunc() 4/22 18:42:25.812 Interface\FrameXML\AnimationSystem.lua:22 Animation_UpdateFrame() 4/22 18:42:25.812 Interface\FrameXML\AnimationSystem.lua:35 etc. ShinyBuffs is only mentioned at the end of the first string. So why am I so sure that its actually ShinyBuffs causing the problem and not FixModSounds? Because the Furbish buff replacement mod created the identical problem a few quests earlier with more direct taint.log entries. The earlier quest where something tainted and the Blizzard icon bars did not come back after dismounting from a vehicle: Save Krennan Aranas. The taint.log entries there: Code: 4/22 18:25:47.109 Global variable DEBUFF_ACTUAL_DISPLAY tainted by Furbish - Interface\FrameXML\BuffFrame.lua:111 BuffFrame_Update() 4/22 18:25:47.109 Interface\FrameXML\BuffFrame.lua:127 4/22 18:25:47.109 BuffFrame_UpdatePositions() 4/22 18:25:47.109 *:OnLoad:4 setFunc() 4/22 18:25:47.109 Interface\FrameXML\InterfaceOptionsPanels.lua:2036 4/22 18:25:47.109 Execution tainted by Furbish while reading DEBUFF_ACTUAL_DISPLAY - Interface\FrameXML\BuffFrame.lua:114 BuffFrame_Update() 4/22 18:25:47.109 Interface\FrameXML\PlayerFrame.lua:354 PlayerFrame_ToPlayerArt() 4/22 18:25:47.109 Interface\FrameXML\PlayerFrame.lua:294 PlayerFrame_UpdateArt() 4/22 18:25:47.109 Interface\FrameXML\PlayerFrame.lua:285 animPostFunc() 4/22 18:25:47.109 Interface\FrameXML\AnimationSystem.lua:22 Animation_UpdateFrame() 4/22 18:25:47.109 Interface\FrameXML\AnimationSystem.lua:35 Both ShinyBuffs & that mod are doing essentially the same thing (modifying/replacing the default Blizzard buffs), so identical taint problems in very similar circumstances points to both mods having issues. After the problem with Furbish, I disabled it, enabled ShinyBuffs and encountered the subsequent problem. Hope it can be fixed. Regarding the font-overlapping-the-timer-bar problem I brought up before, it unfortunately happens with a good proportion of the fonts available via LibSharedMedia. Took a while before finally finding one that did not overlap the bar: "Collegiate". As so many fonts have that problem (that can't be fixed by resizing, as mentioned in the original post), maybe reposition the default location of the fonts higher up the Y axis inside the buff icons? One more font positioning issue: all the ones I've tried (including Collegiate above that is one of the few that does not overlap the timer bar) are positioned so that the "m" & "s" letters are "pushed" up against the right side of the icons. Which leaves a large blank space to the left of the numbers and is thus disproportional. It doesn't look good. Could the fonts also be repositioned to be more centered within the icons?

My only question is - is there any chance in the future that you can make the debuff window separate from the buff window so it can be moved? Would make this buff add-on pretty much perfect.

Ditto for the temporary weapon enchant. Having it grouped up with the buffs is messing with the spacing.

Sorry I missed this. You posted while I was out of town. Didn't even notice it. (This is another reason why I always request that bug reports go to my portal.

)

It seems that wowprogramming.com is out of date on this. Found the updated API and should have it corrected in the next version.

BTW, sry for my poor english writing.

I'm pretty sure that I was able to cancel buffs in combat the last time I tried. Did you try with all other addons disabled?
