Tank Warnings

5 - TankWarnings hasn't worked properly since WoW 3.0.8 was released

This needs a rewrite/update for WoW 3.0.8 (released Jan 20/09) and/or the current 3.0.9. It doesn't work properly anymore. WoW 3.0.8 introduced some large changes to the combat log/chat/etc..

Have rarely played my (70) warrior alt since the expansion; maybe a handful of times. Each time I've been in an instance party since Jan. 20, though (most recently today), this has refused to work properly.

Missed Taunts, Mocking Blows and the like are hard to be sure of. But--for sure--abilities like Shield Wall, Last Stand & Challenging Shout (that I have to manually activate) are never announced to party chat when I use them. Despite being checkmarked in options and despite knowing that this mod used to work properly in the past.

Also, heading into its options to make everything is checkmarked properly (which they were in the Blizzard panel), tried out unchecking "Disable in PvP". It refused to uncheck and an error was thrown up:

TankWarnings-1.1.4b\\Core.lua:785 attempt to index field 'message' (a nil value)\n(tail call): ?:\nin C code: ?\nstring:\"safecall Dispatcher[2]\":9: in function [string \"safecall Dispatcher[2]\"]:5\n(tail call): ?:\nAceConfigDialog-3.0-26:783: in function ...nfig-3.0\\AceConfigDialog-3.0\\AceConfigDialog-3.0.lua:602\n(tail call): ?:\nin C code: ?\nstring:\"safecall Dispatcher[3]\":9: in function [string \"safecall Dispatcher[3]\"]:5\n(tail call): ?:\nAceGUI-3.0-19 (Ace3):267: in function `Fire'\n...ns\\Ace3\\AceGUI-3.0\\widgets\\AceGUIWidget-CheckBox.lua:51 in function ...ns\\Ace3\\AceGUI-3.0\\widgets\\AceGUIWidget-CheckBox.lua:47\n

Switched over in the middle of the run to the more recently updated OptiTaunt mod. OptiTaunt announced everything properly from then on.

I moved to TankWarnings from OptiTaunt long ago because I preferred the way it worked. And it used to work great. So I look forward to this being updated to work properly with the current live WoW patches :).
