Cirk's Blessings

[Tylius]

That, is probably it then =D
I was having one issue after training, relogging later on fixed it, then I trained again shortly and had more problems, and then after relogging later it was fixed.

Guess that explains it, thanks

I've just uploaded Blessing v1.9.2:

• Various bug fixes and robustness tweaks to cover conditions where the class and other information relating to players was not being recorded properly due to the player not having fully loaded for paladin's client when they joined the raid.
• Bug fix for when the paladin levels up, trains, or otherwise changes the contents of their spellbook (thanks for pointing that out Tylius).
• Updated interface number to correctly match patch 1.9.

Let me know if you have any problems with it

would it be possible to show a timer how long the blessings last in an movable window? not only the message on the screen before it runs out

Usually you should be able to see how long your buffs have left on them by looking at your own buff, where you can either mouse-over it to check, or enable Blizzard's default option for showing the time remaining (or use an addon with better formatting, such as Telo's BuffTimers).

Granted, if you have a mixture of greater and normal blessings it can be a bit confusing about when the one you aren't self-buffed with will expire

In the next version of Blessings, I was planning on having the Blessings mini-map icon flash slowly when blessings were expiring, and for some time after they had expired (maybe with an informative mouse-over tooltip) to help remind paladins who tend to miss the warning messages and don't check their own buffs very often. I may incorporate a "time-remaining" thing (as you suggest) into the tooltip there when I do that.

With the default install, I can never get anyone to be blessed... "Blessing sequence finished" as soon as I hit the button or use the shortcut.

A simple question popped in my mind... is the addon known to be working with a french version of WoW ?

It really looks well designed, exactly what I'm looking for, but I can't use it as far as I understand it. Tips ? Suggestions ? I can provide you with the french strings for blessings, classes, etc if you want

Hi Katana, thanks for posting, and yes that is exactly the problem - Blessings can't understand french yet (I never was that good at it myself )

Anyway, the good news is that the code is designed to allow for simple replacement of all the text strings, etc., for localization purposes. All the localization is effectively contained in the tables and strings defined near the top of the Blessings.lua file, specifically:

BINDING_HEADER_BLESSINGS_TITLE (string)
BINDING_NAME_BLESSINGS_ACTION (string)
BINDING_NAME_BLESSINGS_PANEL (string)
BLESSINGS_TEXT (table of strings, contains the spell names as commented in there)
BLESSINGS_COMMANDS (table of strings and response messages)
BLESSINGS_HELP (table of slash command help strings)

Obviously the most important for getting it working on a non-english client are the spell names at the top of the BLESSINGS_TEXT table. Those, and any other help/translations would be greatly appreciated - feel free to post what you find here.

Cheers,

PS: I assume that the texture names stay the same across clients, anyone able to confirm that?

[katana]

Great, just having the possibility to provide the translation is exactly what I was looking for. I'll work on those asap and I'll post them here.

Thanks for the great work !

"Group "(groupText:SetText("Group "..sdata.group); in 3585 line) needs to have a localized string.

Greater blessings aren't cast to pets but normal blessings are cast. This can make an expiring message shown too early when greater blessings are cast with pets checked in the filtering.

Thanks~
