Any possibility to add an option to turn off healing text on self?
Currently I'm using this macro if it helps.
/run local t=COMBAT_TEXT_TYPE_INFO;t.HEAL.show=nil;t.HEAL_CRIT.show=nil;t.PERIODIC_HEAL.show=nil;t.DAMAGE=nil;t.DAMAGE_CRIT=nil;t.SPELL_DAMAGE=nil;t.SPELL_DAMAGE_CRIT=nil;t.PERIODIC_HEAL_CRIT.show=nil
It keeps popping up with "snared" or "rooted" on my screen even though i have it turned off. Ive tried disabling other addons, but it still keeps happening. What can i do to change this?
floating combat text works for a bit but then it disables itself again. this usually occurs when reloading or going in and out of dungeons/restarting the game. i can always go back and check it and it works again, but once a reload happens, it just disables itself again. this happens whether i have this as the only addon installed or not.
Hi, same issue here, its Floating Combat Text - Floating Combat Text on target - Damage. Other settings are fine. Also I'm using xct addon enabled for showing mitigation, effects procs and inc heavy damage.
EDIT: I just found out in xct you can enable cvar bypass and it help with my issue. Now everything works)
If you're running ElvUI, their addon myopically attempts to override any cvar changes you make outside of their own control panel.
The original post claims they aren't running any other addons, but this isn't something I can replicate with AIO itself.
If you type "floatingCombatTextCombatDamage" into the CVar Browser filter and hover over it, the tooltip should display the last thing that modified the variable at the bottom in red. You can try checking that after it resets itself.
i did a fresh install but i did have elvui previously. maybe something got left behind, i dunno but i did a fresh install again and now it seems to be working. thx
as soon as i installed elvui, it mucked it up again tho. so whatever elvui is doing it's screwing up the blizzard floating combat text. i even skipped the cvars install and it still bugged it out. i don't like a bunch of addons but i guess i can't use elvui with the floating combat text no matter what. lame.
Can you try disabling all of your other addons and seeing if you still can't set this cvar?
Another option you can try:
Open up basicOptions.lua; at the top of the file is a function that looks like this:
local SetCVar = function(...) -- Suppress errors trying to set read-only cvars
-- Not ideal, but the api doesn't give us this information
local status, err = pcall(function(...) return _SetCVar(...) end, ...)
return status
end
replace all of that with this:
local SetCVar = function(...) -- Suppress errors trying to set read-only cvars
-- Not ideal, but the api doesn't give us this information
local status, err = pcall(function(...) return _SetCVar(...) end, ...)
if err then print(err) end
return status
end
save the file, /reload your ui and see if something gets printed to the chat when you try to change that cvar.
I should have tried it on its own before reporting, seems to be a conflict with another addon as on its own I was able to modify "alwaysCompareItems" and it saved.
Now starts the fun part of finding out which one, I have a few installed :)
When / if I do find the conflicting one I will report back here.
It should be telling you what addon last modified the cvar in the tooltip when you hover over it in the cvar browser, but it doesn't always catch it, particularly if the addon loaded before AIO does.
I made the change you indicated to the basicOptions.lua while out of the game, logged in and tried using your mod to make the change, this is with all my usual addons installed.
There was unfortunately no error message and the value would not change.
I'll go through at some point and try and see which one is causing the conflict.
Check if you can use /run SetCVar("alwaysCompareItems", 1) instead of the console command; if you can't, an addon probably hooked this function and there may be a simple way to find out which one it was by making a small addon that hooks it even earlier in the loading process and catching it.

Posted Apr 11, 2018Am using this addon to try and set some cvar values but while some will change others won't.
One that doesn't work is "alwaysCompareItems".
I can set it with the /console command but your addon cvar browser won't make the change.
I am verifying using the /dump command, changing via chat command works, changing via your cvar browser does not.
