Prat 3.0

Version: 3.9.51

by: lucifercatnip, humfras, MysticalOS, pompachomp, sylvanaar

Prat is a chat addon framework, and collection. It consists of 30+ modules which each add some functionality to the WoW chat interface. There is literally a module for just about everything chat related. While large in size, i have been working to keep the runtime memory usage down, and eliminate the costs of the unused modules without littering the addon directory with a slew of folders.

For the options menu, type "/prat", or if you have a broker host mod installed you will get a launcher icon.

You control the load behavior of modules via the module control screen. You have 3 choices "Don't load", "Disabled", and "Enabled"

You can report any bugs you find here:

http://www.wowace.com/projects/prat-3-0/tickets/

Prat has just about every feature you can think of, and then some. Really. When I get some more time, I'll try and put together a full list (Even I have lost count)

(Thanks to Dreamsight for this partial list)

* Change arrows, buttons, mouse scroll for chat scroll, scroll speed
* you can add color per channel, color per lvl, color per class
* timestamps
* timestamp color
* whether to show timestamp (what format the timestamp should be in)
* whether to show players lvl
* you can select the option for channel "stickys" (last channel you used you auto use when hitting enter, that sort of thing – or last thing someone said)
* change the looks of the chat's editbox - as well as where it appears (you can even undock it and move it to where you'd like it to be)
* chat fading, fading delay
* You can change the font to a list of fonts, add an outline to it, monochrome it (if you don’t mind messing with files a bit you could prolly even add other fonts to that list)
* change the chat frame/chat box appearance
* set Chat history
* set channel abbreviations
* set brackets and color(or something instead of brackets)round player/lvl
* alt invite option (press keyboard “alt” button and click on the player’s name to auto inv them)
* raid icon
* invite links
* info keeping
* url copying
* full chat copying + options (html,bbcode, plain, forum) + copy button
* allows pop-up msgs
* enables tell target /tt
* Alias options
* altnames options
* you can enable/disable all prat modules - dont have to have the ones you dont use running
* change chat sounds (incoming and outgoing as well as per channel
* acheivement info, and clickable links to say "grats"

For those interested:

There is an additional folder Prat-3.0_HighCPUUsageModules.

Note: These features use CPU, so they have been placed in a special folder so that is 100% clear.

I have the high-cpu modules enabled from the addon screen but I cannot figure it out from there. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

nino A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	Great addon. I've had a problem for quite some time (maybe around the Naxx era when LK first came out) where I cannot resize my windows. They stay the same size for every character I make. I have installed the most recent version of Prat but it still occurs. Any idea as to why this happens? Thanks for any help!

Gautr A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 17 File comments: 101 Uploads: 5	Great addon, been using it since the the first versions and i still love it. But now i have a problem, since ive been using CBH Viewport and wanted my chat to be on top of the black widescreen like edges that appear it resets and places it self just above the black edges which is annoying. Any ideas?

I've searched through a few of the .lua files, but can't find it.

Halpz?

Documenting the fix for those who also have this problem:

getdifficultycolor is found on line 1153 (or somewhere around there). Simply place quest in between get and difficulty, save, and you win!
