Utopia

(aka: ZOMGDebuffs)

In a perfect world, all fights would have all debuffs applied.

Given the many changes to WoW with the 3.0.2 patch, I've put together this little mod to show what the potential debuffs of the raid are, compared to what they're actually doing.

The Display

Show Melee Icons only, which is an optional mode to show only what is of interest to your class
An arrangement of icons showing the 'classes' of debuff, rather than the traditional specific debuff icons. For example, you will have one single icon representing Sunder Armor and Expose Armor. You don't care which is applied, only that it's there. The same applies to all the myriad of other buffs and debuffs which are now grouped into doing the same job.

By default, these icons are presented thusly:

  • Dimmed - Your group can't apply this aura
  • White - Debuff applied
  • Yellow - Your group has applied this aura but it is an unimproved version. Do you feel dirty?
  • Red - Your group can apply this aura, but hasn't
  • Blue - Aura is unavavailable because of a conflicting spell (Blessings, Curses etc.)

Mousing over any of the icons will show the potential of the raid. Highlighted lines show what your raid can do. A Tick shows it's done, a cross means it's not. Next to this you get the values for the auras, and if that's different from the maximum your group can do, this is shown.

Shows details of which spells are available from your group

Anything unavailable will always show the maximum potential value of a debuff with all improved talents, whereas when something is available it will show the maximum that could be done by your raid.

The progress bar will show the percentage that has been debuffed for a quick at-a-glance view.

Standard buff tooltips are enhanced to show you the real values that you're getting from your raid member's buffs. Tooltip Enhancements

Up-Time Module

The new debuff Up-Time recorder will record a fight, when auras are applied, removed, by whom. The DPS for the fight, deaths and significant boss events so that you can examine the timeline of your fight after the fact.

    At some point in the past, I managed to access the buff/debuff history window. However, at present, clicking on the LDB entry only toggles the debuff display or brings up the configuration window.

    Im not sure if some other mod (maybe spammage meters) is filtering it out, but I am no longer seeing the EOC message that that would bring up the debuff time display window. Is there a way to bring up the window using a / command?

    thanks

    @Zanthor - Utopia's doing nothing wrong here and certainly makes no reference to CASTINGBAR_SR, whatever that is. I tried looking thru RDX links for Brethren, but there's so many and I just don't have time to install everything searching for it.

    Unless RDX is doing something really naughty, I just don't see how this error can occur.

    @SoNoFu - Utopia could have been helping the problem, because it triggers a load of inspects on your raid members. On it's own this is fine. If however you have another mod (say and item link gatherer) that will scan all inspected players, this could put an extra load on things that wow doesn't like.

    But, I think they fixed all the random DC problems with the recent mini-patch. Been fine since then?

    @Zidomo - I specifically did not include it in the toc/package because I know it's a very very rarely used lib. And I just don't like pulling in stuff when it's not really a big deal. All it's for is translating the spec name. If the lib's found, it'll use it.

    LibBabble-TalentTree-3.0 is referenced in the new Utopia_Details module. But its not going to load or be found with how its currently packaged; it needs to be referred to in the TOC.

    The new library included with r97 (LibBabble-TalentTree-3.0) is not going to be found by the mod if its embedded. The only other mod I've yet seen that uses it is ClassLoot. There are no pointers to it in the TOC or anywhere else.

    When I try to run this I get:

    Interface\AddOns\Utopia\Utopia.lua:3844: Usage: AceDBObject:RegisterDefaults(defaults): 'CASTINGBAR_SR' is not a valid datatype.

    This is directly related to Brethern raid frames settings module (OpenRDX package).

    Same result. DCed after 4-10 seconds after logging back in. Another note I forgot to add: If you aren't in range of the rest of the party it will not DC. Once you get close, the DC occurs.

    I love this addon. Very good idea and the visual representation is excellent for RLs that need a quick look to see if debuffs are up. However...

    With the most recent patch I was getting disconnects in groups/raid. No errors, just starts lagging and DCs me from the server. I narrowed it to Utopia. All other addons are back on and no DCs. Here's how I tested it: I am grouped with a low level hunter and priest. I continued to turn off addons until it stopped DCing. It did after Utopia. I turned all others back on and no DCs since.

    If I had to guess, I'd assume the scan talents function is requesting something the client thinks is an illegal procedure. I'm probably wrong! =)

    All of these test are done with the most recent release from Curse. I am going to DL the current release from here and will re-comment on the results.

    @Kyldisk: Let me know if that's still happening. Should have nailed most problems though.

    @Maxxpower: I'm not sure yet. Have been considering it.
