EventAlert  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 4.7.6
by: CurtisTheGreat [More]

The addon will notify you in the middle of your screen with an icon, name of the spell that has procced, the time left on the proc and will make a subtle sound. EventAlert is also able to handle more than one proc at a time (this option was not available in previous versions).

I am not fond of addons that have very complicated installation and setups. The mod should work on install without any config, but if you wish to change any options use the following command: /ea options
To see a more detailed list of what options are avaiable to the mod, just check out the screenshot of the options pane.

This mod tracks the following events/procs:

  • Death Knight
    • Cinderglacier (Runeforging)
    • Dark Transformation
    • Killing Machine
    • Rime (Freezing Fog)
    • Rune Strike

Quick Backstory: I created this addon as a test for myself as my first "from the ground up" addon. Most of my coding in WoW LUA was taking other addons and just fixing them so they work from minor bugs or whatnot.

Anyhow, I needed a mod that was lightweight and did only what I wanted it to do, and that was warn me when one of my spells or talents procced something I needed. Thus, EventAlert was born. There are likely to be bugs, explosions and not so good things that may come from this mod. I'm sorry in advance! If you find a bug, please let me know so I can fix it.

Also, if anyone finds a spell/talent/etc that they want watched, please let me know and I will add it!

4.7.6
Bugfix: Fixed problem with spell charges not showing up on alerts.
Bugfix: Fixed problem with alerts not showing when options changed without a reload.
Change: Added option to show/hide spell charges.

To see the full change log, view the changelog.txt file included in the EventAlert zip file.

very nice, but do you think it would be possible to add, just for SnG's, the ability to say or yell something of your choice every time you get the buffs? other than that, i have found no problems, except for the face that maybe you could add nether protection as well

However, if I login with another copy of the same profile and don't bring up a test frame but instead go into combat and wait for a proc, it displays the alert in the predefined location (as well as via the sample alert from the config from there on out).
Ah, I'm glad you were able to track it down. I haven't had a chance to look into it, as I've worked all weekend. I work tomorrow night as well, so I'll fix it on Tuesday.

Thanks for tracking it down for me!

Hey Curtiss, I manage a turnkey compilation on wowinterface here, and I'm having a hard time getting the profiles squared away on your more recent releases. It seems that even with all the settings I can locate imported, it still defaults to the center of the screen. The things I include in my profile are:

Layout-local variables for both the alert and options box.

and...

The EventAlert.lua account savedvariable.


I'm quite lost as to why it's not retaining the settings, but once I login with the pre-made profile it resets to the middle (though setting it after enables it to persist through shutdowns/logoffs/etc). I'm kinda puzzled but I suspect it may be related to one of the many addons I include in my comp. I was hoping you could rattle off as many reasons as you could think of that might cause it to reset, and I'll see if I can locate any addons that might fit that bill (I have several addons with frames at different levels in the vicinity of where I'm trying to save the EA posiition). Thanks in advance

Any chance on the Druid Eclipse (Balance), Starfire/Wrath Icon difference?

Battle Turkeys everywhere will rejoice without having to pay for or use other mods that don't even come close the the features or benefits of this one!

thank you!

I think problem in wowinterface site - there are "The latest version of this file is currently awaiting approval from a file admin. You can download a previous (older) version from the archive." text in download frame with old files. Apparently this problem will be fixed by admins within the next few hours :-)

No clue why it's not working for you.

I just deleted the old archived file and re-uploaded it again. I triple checked the files were correct, and they are.

Make sure you clear your cache before trying to download again, as you may just be "downloading" it from your hard drive.

Wow, that's odd. I did the upload before, and it changed the version on the page, but didn't upload the file.

I just re-did it. Hopefully it works this time.
