SBF 3.1.12 - 25 May 2009

A replacement for the UI buff frame. If you can imagine it, you can probably make SBF look like that.

Upgrading from SBF 3.0?
SBF 3.1 has some fairly major changes from SBF 3.0. Downloading this and logging in 5 minutes before a raid will leave you very grumpy. Go read the SBF 3.0 to 3.1 survival guide.

Known Issues
Please read the known issues list before asking/reporting a problem: SBF - Known Issues

#1 Question answered: No, there are no screenshots. If you can imagine it, you can probably make SBF look like that.

SBF is not licenced as Open Source software: http://evilempireguild.org/SBF/licence.php
Can I host SBF on my site?

Feature highlights:
* Buffs and debuffs in any number of moveable frames
* Duration timers with several format options (plus no timer option)
* Buff bars can be enabled in any frame
* Temporary weapon enchants are displayed in the main buff frame
* Buff expiry warnings, setttable by frame with multiple choices for when to trigger warnings, and what length of buff warnings will appear for
* Options for an accompanying sound for expiry warning
* Buff expiry warnings can be displayed in Blizzard scrolling combat text, Grayhoof's SCT, Parrot, or MikSBT
* Buffs arranged vertically or horizontally
* User set number of buffs per row/column
* Reversable icon order
* Several buff sorting options
* Adjustable icon scale, duration text scale, spacing between buffs, and opacity - separate for each buff frame
* Individual buff frames have 5 visibility options: always visible, never visible, visible in combat, visible out of combat, and visible on mouseover
* Buff filtering lets you put buffs wherever you want
* Uses the SharedMedia Library so you can present a uniform UI using the same fonts and textures your other SML addons do
* Supports ButtonFacade for skinning icons
* True GUI configuration (not 700 cascading popup menus!)

Change Log - Satrina Buff Frames 3

Version 3.1.12
* When SBF can determine the caster of an effect, it will put the name in the effect's tooltip
* The list on the Spells tab should populate correctly now

Version 3.1.9
* Fixed an error when checking castable status (SBFUtil line 86)

Version 3.1.8
* Fixed an error where size limited frames get the wrong buffs
* Some small fixes for ButtonFacade. Some skins will still not get border colours. I've sent a message to StormFX to see if there's something I am missing or if it's just an inconsistency with some BF skins
* Added the ability for users to add custom sounds for expiry warnings. See SatrinaBuffFrame/Media/SBFSounds.lua for directions
* When changing SBF profiles, the list of frames shown in ButtonFacade setup will update correctly

Version 3.1.7
3.1.7 is version bookkeeping to keep in sync with a massive fubar I had at Curse

Version 3.1.6
* Bars should no longer jump directly from 00:01 to 00:00
* Buff flows will no longer reset when you re-enter the options after setting them up

* You can now reset the profile for the current character by using /sbf reset

Version 3.1.5
* TOC version has been updated for WoW 3.1

* SBF will no longer allow you to try and flow buffs for different units. (There's no way to make that work without a major code revamp)

* ha filters should behave a little bit better now
* Vehicle buff frames will update and clear when you exit a vehicle

Anferny8 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 8 Uploads: 0	First off wanted to say I love your buff frame mod. I hate to bug you, and I'm sure you get this often. I was wondering how I would go about having a buff bar show only totems? I tried c and tt!~totem, also tried a and c. Still couldn't figure it out :*(

Naboo9 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	issue with auras Thanks for the effort you have this mod. I've been using it for a couple weeks now, and it's been a challenge learning how to use it, but it's really improved my ability to monitor what's going on with my buffs in a raid. Here's the situation as it relates to my question below: I'm trying to split up my auras into 2 bars. One that shows my own auras (things like mounts, druid forms, etc) along with my personal buffs, and a second that shows auras from other classes and the environment (retribution aura, essence of wintergrasp, cozy fire, etc). I have been doing it the hard way, by setting both bars to whitelist and defining each spell. This of course is time consuming, occasionally inaccurate (as I wait for the list to be populated), and not a very friendly system to copy the settings to an alt. I have just spent the last couple hours looking on your website and trying to figure out how to make this easier, and am still a bit stumped. I attempted on the second bar to use a whitelist filter, and then specifed "a&!my", thinking that it would show all auras but the ones that I cast. However, what this also does is remove all the "environmental auras" that I want to display on this bar. I then tried a series of filters for this bar, including "a" + the auras I didn't want to see, by using the "!" notation - such as n!=moonkin form. This not only doesn't work, but when I include just these 2 filters in the bar, it still shows the moonkin form aura, and also then shows my MoTW and Thorns buffs, even though they are not auras. Some additional guidance on if/how I can accomplish this type of customization would be much appreciated. If you can answer this question, I can likely figure out the answers to some of my others, lol. Thanks for your time. Last edited by Naboo9 : 07-03-2009 at 07:49 PM.

NarusegawaNaru A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 13 File comments: 67 Uploads: 0	Hi, I've changed some code in my copy around line 775 in SBFFrame.lua to be this instead Code: if slot.icon then if self.bfModule then slot.icon.border:Hide() if (buff.duration > 0) then lbf:SetNormalVertexColor(slot.icon, 0, 1, 1, 1) -- buff else lbf:SetNormalVertexColor(slot.icon, 0, 1, 0, 1) -- aura end else slot.icon.border:Show() if (buff.duration > 0) then slot.icon.border:SetVertexColor(0, 1, 1, 1) -- buff else slot.icon.border:SetVertexColor(0, 1, 0, 1) -- aura end end end Just so I could have borders for buffs in one color, and aura's (like on mount, essence of wintergrasp etc etc) in a different colour. I'm trying to work out though, how I can check if a buff is an item buff so I can set to a 3rd colour. Any pointers?

Myster A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 50 Uploads: 2	Feature request Is it possible to have a spell is stealable filter/highlight option for mages? Azcastbars has this option and I find it very helpful but I want to replace the buff frames with yours and I will sorely miss that option. Great work on this mod. Thanks for all your hard work and sharing your mod with the community, it is much appreciated by myself and my compilation users. edit-- Opps just edited this because I did not take the time to read thru these post, so please ignore my feature request as it is already there. On another note, might need to update your website howto page because it is not listed under the filters section. Last edited by Myster : 07-01-2009 at 07:22 AM.

wurzelpete A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Berserk Hi! Just started using your addon, and I must say I really like it - one thing I couldn'T get to work though: when filtering auras/buffs, I'd like to show the Druid Ability "Berserk" in my buff frame, but NOT show the buff "berserk" from the weapon enchant. But tt=Berserk. throws an error, and n=Berserk&tt!~armor seems to not work either. I'm using a whitelist for my buffs so I only get the ones I want, but the Berserk thing I couldn't sort out yet Is there an option to make the filters like tt~Berserk&tt!~armor work for the whitelist? or any other thing I missed? (The tooltip for the berserk from teh weapon enchant reads like will increase attack power but reduce armor by blabla, that's where my idea with the armor thingy came from). Thx for your time!

I like this addon but I am looking to show my buff/debuffs and my targets buff/debuffs at the same time. From what I have seen or firgured out i can only do one or the other.. Is this correct or is it like the subject says am i blind? thanks

Photekk A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 7 Uploads: 0	Yup Recluse that's exactly what I wanted - works nicely. Now all I have to do is implement this in with SBF to only display buffs 18-x Wonder if this code could be translated into a filter, that would make it simple to modify the displayed buffs in SBF

So, I know about the 'my' filter, and how to use it... But I'm curious if there is the ability to merely change the display of 'my' filtered buffs without filtering -out- buffs.

As an example, show all debuffs on the target, but make them black&white except for the buffs I have cast. Or, make mine larger than everyone elses, so on and so forth. Anything like that in SBF?

Is my only solace to make two target debuff groups, one filtered, one not?

Sorry if I'm overlooking something obvious.

Something like this? Only advice I can offer you with it is that for me, mounting and dismounting took a second to register that the buff was gained/lost. In an addon I made for personal use, I had to create a 1 second delay to get it to properly detect that I was mounted or dismounted.

Code:

local f = CreateFrame("Frame")
f:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...) return self[event](self, event, ...) end)
f:RegisterEvent("UNIT_AURA")

local function CountBuffs()
	local i = 1
	local buff = UnitBuff("player", i)
	while buff do
		i = i + 1
		buff = UnitBuff("player", i)
	end
	return i - 1
end

function f:UNIT_AURA(...)
	-- Only if the buff change involves the player
	if select(2,...) == "player" then
		local buffCount = CountBuffs()
		if buffCount > 18 then
			-- Do something
		end
	end
end

Photekk A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 7 Uploads: 0	Satrina, I'd figure I'd ask you this question as well seeing as you wrote the code for the best buff/debuff tracking mod. Is there a way to determine the number of buffs through LUA? Either to return the data so that I can use it or just through a simple if/then statement, ie: if Auras.beneficial("player") > 18 then ... I want to create a window textured once I reach a certain number of buffs (for it to appear only after a certain number of buffs) .. is there any code you know of that returns this info?
