2016/07/29 — I do not plan to update ShieldsUp for Legion, as shaman shields no longer exist in a meaningful form in the game. |
* Note that Water Shield and Lightning Shield will display a "W" or "L", respectively, except for elemental shamans, who will see a number for Lightning Shield when they have at least one extra charge.Frequently Asked Questions
Type “/sup” for options, or browse to the ShieldsUp panel in the standard Interface Options window.
A: ShieldsUp only monitors Earth Shield when it’s cast on yourself, or on a player or pet in your party or raid group. There is no way for addons to reliably monitor buffs cast on units who are not in your group, so ShieldsUp doesn’t try.Q: Why am I only seeing one charge counter?
A: ShieldsUp switches to a single-counter display when you are solo, or if you don’t have the Earth Shield talent, since in either situation it’s only possible for you to have one shield active on a target ShieldsUp can monitor.Feedback
Post a ticket on GitHub or post a comment on this page. If you are reporting a problem, please read this first. If you are requesting a feature, please note that I consider ShieldsUp to be complete, and will probably not add any new features.Language Support
Works in all languages. Translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano (partial), Português, Русский, 한국어 (partial), 简体中文, and 繁體中文. You can add or update translations for any language on the CurseForge project page.Credits
ShieldsUp was originally based on Infineon’s beSch.

Have the same problem with
ShieldsUp-0\Core.lua:366: attempt to compare number with nil pops up frequent when I have the addon enabled. |

Re: Re: Strange Problem
I'm not sure why you guys are still having this problem, but if the Earth Shield charge counter and target name fail to appear when you join a group, you should be able to get them to show up by reloading the UI while you're in the group. I'm currently working on a major rewrite of ShieldsUp's core to better support the new glyphs and talents, so I'm not doing much bugfixing on the current version, unfortunately.

Hmm, I reloaded my UI and it reverted my shield tracker to the old functionality. Yay! The comfort of familiarity, along with proper detection of additional charges from glyph & talent.
Edit: Apparently if I join a party, I have to reload my UI to gain the earth shield tracker. A probably unintended side effect is that reloading my UI while not in a party also gives me the earth shield tracker. In any case, I agree with direwolf24 -- I'd like the ability to disable solo mode. I understand you've worked hard on the new code, and I do appreciate the time you've spent on it.

The goal of solo mode is to hide useless information. Since ShieldsUp only tracks Earth Shield on players (or pets) who are in your raid or party, when you aren't in a group, the only unit ShieldsUp would track Earth Shield on is yourself. Since you can only have cast shield on yourself at a time, there's no reason to show two counters and a name -- one counter would always show a zero, and the name would always show your name.
Once solo mode is complete, it will seamlessly switch between showing both counters and the name while you are in a group, and showing just one counter while you are not in a group. The single counter in solo mode will track whichever shield is active on yourself, whether it's Water Shield, Lightning Shield, or Earth Shield. If there is some reason besides the current bugginess of solo mode that you would not want this functionality, please elaborate, because I can't think of any reasons why it an option to disable it would be useful. Edit: To clarify, as I understood DireWolf's request, he wanted to turn off solo mode only because he wanted to see Earth Shield charges on himself when he was solo. As mentioned in this post and in my original response to him, it is my intention for solo mode to show you Earth Shield charges; the current versions of ShieldsUp are really just stopgap measures to get basic functionality in WoW 3.0 until the new core is ready to release. I anticipate that will be less than a week from now. In the meantime, you should be able to live with the bugs in the current version while you level.
