Phew so it's been a busy month, anyway, v0.9.46 of Button Forge has been uploaded it includes a fix to get EquipmentSet icons showing properly. Deadlyz, that's got me stumped as to what could be causing it (I tried the hidehotkeys just in case but the charge count still displays for me); I'm in the process of reworking the over...

Extra Bars v2.0.1 uploaded
Posted By: Alternator
Hi I've just uploaded a significant (though in a lot of ways subtle) update. I skipped 2.0.0 here as I anticipated a few teething problems, but it wasn't too bad... anyway here are the changes: 04-Oct-2016 v2.0.1 - Addressed bug where on first login Items would not trigger off EB buttons - No longer attempt to show a tooltip fo...

v0.9.45 uploaded
Posted By: Alternator
Just a minor update to fix the equipment set icons. Deadlyz, that's got me stumped as to what could be causing it (I tried the hidehotkeys just in case but the charge count still displays for me); I'm in the process of reworking the overall Button Forge engine, hopefully that might have an impact?!

@Deadlyz, I missed this update to correct the macro situation, but hopefully I can get it sussed for the next. Thank you. I'll be waiting.. in the shadows. /chuckles I gave the macro you listed below a try and the charges are showing. I tried a few different things, I'm wondering if there is interaction with another addon that is...

Posted By: Alternator
A new version of Button Forge has just gone up (v0.9.43), this one just has some minor changes that may help if some people are encountering issues with the macrocheckdelay. And I've also added a safety check for mounts added to the bar... It seems a few people are still encountering issues there, fingers crossed this rights it....

v0.7.19 uploaded to work with the latest version of WoW
Posted By: Alternator
This version should get Extra Bars back up and running. It adds support for the additional specialisations. Corrects the issues with Mounts, and also fixes some issues with cooldowns. There may be teething problems requiring further releases, so I'll be keeping an eye out.

Posted By: Alternator
Righto v0.9.42 of Button Forge has just been uploaded. This provides better support for the 3rd and 4th specialisation (and if a class turns up with 5 of the things... well the addon will need a little more adjustment, but tmk there aren't any that have 5). Siofral - I'm not familiar with WoWMatrix, I'll check the site out, but...

Button Forge v0.9.41 Uploaded (WoW v7)
Posted By: Alternator
4 Specs now? damn! looks like I'll be busy for a while longer. I've just uploaded what will most likely be the first of several updates to get ButtonForge ready for the next expansion (recognising it's running behind given v7 of WoW is out now). Anyway the just uploaded version should get Mounts working again! Regards Alter...

Posted By: Alternator
Hi, just wanted to chime in on an earlier report about cooldowns. What happens is when something is on CD you don't always see the usual shadow-clock-thing (the standard Blizzard cooldown timer). This makes you think an item or spell is available. When you go to click the button, you'll get the usual notification that an item is o...

Re: Mouse over
Posted By: Alternator
Can a bar's visibility state be set for mouseover? If yes, how? It can't unfortunately (well not in the sense of how visibility state drivers work which is what BF uses). Im still working on a bigger update to BF a while off and I have the opportunity to seamlessly add such a feature I'll look at it as it does get requested ev...

Hi all, There's been several bugs reported over the past month, and I'm going to try and make a concerted effort to get them squared away (well most of them, unfortunately some I cant test due to not being levelled enough...). But I'll jump in quick now Bytales as your latest message jumped out at me. You can save profiles in...

Extra Bars and WoD
Posted By: Alternator
So the next expansion is just about upon us, so I figured I'd take the moment to do a blog post about Extra Bars and WoW. But in a nutshell, I'll be continuing support for both addons in WoD :) It is a long post but if you wanted to read a bit of history and my thoughts on it all here's the link (it's on the curse BF addon page...

Button Forge and WoD
Posted By: Alternator
Now that BF has stabilised with 6.0.2 for the moment, I wanted to let people know where I am at with keeping the addon up to date now that WoD is almost upon us. Rather than post it everywhere, I've got a link to my post about it on the curse page for BF It's quite long, and really only targetted at those that are curious about m...

Hey, Thanks Catitude, It's always good to get that kind of feedback :D Deadlyz, I'll check into that - but to confirm it's only happening when you log out and back in?

Button Forge v0.9.38
Posted By: Alternator
Ok I've just uploaded a new version of Button Forge: This one should get around the Mac Client issue with saved variables for some characters. Now BF will store a back up of your character settings to its account level saved variables and use those if it can't find local character settings. In a nut shell - BF will now remembe...

Thanks, especially for taking the time to provide the detailed info! I've got a list of issues that are affecting some players that I'm working through, so I'll also look into this one (I suspect the first is related to the macro names, unfortunately Bliz don't provide a very reliable way of tracking macros - but BF should still b...

I'm not sure if either of those options would be of help but thought I'd mention them? Thank you :) but I don't think those are the options I'm looking for, aha. I use CT_Barmod for a bar with profession buttons that becomes visible when I moseover it. But I don't like the global cooldown animation added in CT with the new versi...

Hi! I need help. I want to make a bar that is only visible when I mouse over it. I tried the "visibility macro" but it's not working and I can't find any options. Here's what I wrote: show; hide Unfortunately this isn't possible - basically the mouseover condition is for targets like mobs (help / harm). But it is an oft r...

I've just uploaded v0.7.18 as yesterdays upload may have still caused problems for some people. The first time you logon with this version it will clear your mounts and battlepets from the extrabars as WoW uses new values to track these and I wasn't able to map them (in the case of battlepets it potentially would cause outright er...

Ok phew - v0.9.36 has just been uploaded; I'm really hoping this has nixed the major issues people were encountering with BF in WoW 6.0.2, and doesn't add new ones - as this pre expansion patch has caught me on the back foot. This update will wipe your battlepets from ButtonForge buttons the next time you log in... This is becau...

Posted By: Alternator
Extra Bars has been updated to v0.7.17 - This will support the newly released WoW v6.0.2 p.s. I'll try and post a bit of an update on me and my plans regarding Extra Bars - but the tldr will be I hope to continue to support it through WoD and improve a few outstanding issues in it as time permits.
