edit: oops, you already did this. i will try reproducing, see what i can see. edit: verified, stray spell icon, where it shouldn't be (not seeing it in the same place you guys are seeing it, but it is there). also having problems sensing the Blizzard nameplate cast bar option. i will work on all of these things.

Originally posted by hiztory Hey, just wanted to let you know of an error I get when bringing up friendly name plates. i believe i already have this fixed in development (a user reported it via PM), and the fix should be available in the next release. always pays to make certain, though. i will go double-check.

edit: alright, i think i have this basically working, in the Alpha version of Aloft. i was able to configure it visually via Aloft's "preview" capability. see the screen shot: http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g4/acapela/Aloft/SpellIcon3.jpg it is not ready for release, needs more testing, but it will be available in the next A...

edit: so, having failed to reproduce this with other people's configurations, i am now asking folks to identify (specifically by version number) whether there was some previous version of Aloft (ideally the Alpha) that does not exhibit this problem. if i can identify some specific code change, i might be able to attempt a fix, even i...

edit: actually, i am guessing this has to do with phasing... and i think i already read something about that somewhere (that it is a "known problem", etc). noticing a strange pathology with follow, which has become chronic in 4.0.6. seems as if when the lead character crosses a zone boundary (minor zone, major zone, any sort of...

Originally posted by -Raz- with 4.2.3-2081 the cast bar seems to be "lagging", instead of a flowing animation its skipping a bit my guess is that this is actually not new (have had others complain before, ever since Aloft had to replace the Blizzard default target cast bar with its own graphics as a workaround to some low-level...

update (2011/02/12): can't find anything about this issue currently on the Blizzard forums. update (2011/02/13): did some testing of totem coloring with a same-faction duel opponent; looks like hostile totems also show a bar-style nameplate.
