Amazing addon. Maybe it's already been suggested, but being able to display spell/item icons at different ranges would be pretty cool

In reply to mitchnull: Oh, idk if I phrased it very well. Not like an actual check for items/spells, just the ability to display a selected icon at a certain range in place of the text. Like instead of the "%d - %d", being able to put the ID for an icon there

That being said, I just realized that I can just change the text I have for 0-8 to literally say Frost Nova :)

Got this error today while trying to do the holiday dungeon. It kept popping up until I disabled it:

In reply to mitchnull: I just did the holiday boss with no problem. Thanks for the quick fix!

UPDATE:

Addon updated - v6.3.0 - contains this fix

Just download or update it via your addon manager of choice :)

Thanks to the author for the quick reaction.

_____________

I created a fix. Use at your own risk. UNOFFICIAL!

STEPS:

1. Open your WoW folder

2. Navigate to this folder: `\_retail_\Interface\AddOns\RangeDisplay`

3. Open this file: `RangeDisplay.lua`

- Use `notepad++`, `vscode`, or any text editor you want

4. On Line 231(confirm the function name), find this function: `local function = checkTarget(ud)`

5. Replace the whole function (lines 231-250) with this code: https://pastebin.com/3nKf7FJt

6. Lastly, open this file too: `RangeDisplay.toc`

7. Make sure these versions: `120000,120001` are listed on the `#Interface` line

Comments:

- I've tested this everywhere (inc inside dungeons). Zero errors. The addons works fine.

- I've submitted a PR on the addon's GitHub page for the author to review. If he likes it he can use it to publish an official release of the addon. Hopefully he reviews it soon. Here's a link to the PR (for ref): https://github.com/mitchnull/RangeDisplay/pull/9

Have a good one! o/

doesnt show any ranges inside an instance... outside just fine

Probably one of my favourite addons. I decided to browse the options to see for a way to keep the range visible and I saw mouse over. Not ideal I thought at first till I saw I can set it to not anchor on the cursor and I could even move the position of it. So now I can simply glance at a target because I use Combat Mode addon, and see roughly how far the target is. For me this is great when running old instances with my DK to know when I'm in range to just use Howling Blast the targets

Ver.6.2.7. Retail WoW. I was entering delve with Bran. Begun fight and got errors :

In reply to desistdaydream: Version 4.2.15 has been fixed.

Thank you for this addon :) Do you think you could add the option to attach the target range to your current target's nameplate?

Is there a chance we might see an update for Midnight?

Hi there i got a problem on BCC Anniversary wich i did not have before and none of my friends have, it only shows 0-8 in Torquoise, and 8-28 in Green, nothing else and not in the 0-5, 5-10 steps as before, i did not change anything in setings, tried redownloading, nothing helped, so Help PLS

If you're having trouble with ranges not being shown correctly in TBC, make sure you also install LibRangeCheck-3.0.

hi. Im playing on retail and I was wondering if it was possible to configure the mouseover settings so that the range checker only shows up if the mob is more than 30 yards away. I dont want to see less than 30. I tried disabling the short range, close range settings but they just remove the color and I still see the numbers. thanks in advance
