Playing around with the UI and some Macros, I may have an idea to "fix" decursive. 1st you need a decurse macro like: cast [target=mouseover, exists, help] Abolish poison; What it does is cure the target the mouse hovers over, if necessary. I tried this with CTRA, Blizzard Party and Blizzard Raid UI and it's working fine. In theory this would be the first big step to be able to use the list decursive shows to actually decurse. On the downside you need to place this macro on a button or in your actionbar as you need to trigger it without using the mouse. Hope I could help :-)

I signed upto this forum just to say one thing:

12 million people are dying for you to make this mod work as it did before the patch, if you need help ask the community, but please we beg you from the bottom of our hearts, we need this mod, every guild needs it, its the number 1 mod on the planet and every guild in every country uses it.

You should be getting paid for this stuff, you made an amazing mod man, I love ya.

Just would like to ditto "bellleboom"'s comments. Mods should be able to give a list of people that you can click to target (otherwise mods like sRaidFrames, CTRA, Pearl, ag UnitFrames, etc wouldn't be able to work.

It would be nice to click on live list, press cleanse, click on live list, press cleanse, etc.

Really appreciate your continued work on this very useful mod. My guild is still using it as it's the only way to tell if anyone has been cursed.

If it's possible to make clicking on the Live List select the person, that would go a loooong way toward making these new changes bearable.

Would it be possible to have teh name and group # the cursed player is in? This would at least make the search for the cursed player much quicker.

Will clicking on the Live-List select the target or is that cut too?

n/m last comment, just read the change log (and I don't know how to delete comment on the new curse site :P)

Yeah big thanks... You mad many of the big things possible ^^ so looking forward to track you upcoming work

I appreciate the fact that you are going to try to continue Decursive and let me just take this opportunity to thank you for a great mod and all the work you've done so far. Personally I think Blizzard shouldn't take away this functionality but sadly, they don't agree. For myself, my guild, and everyone I've ever decursed, tahnks again.

... and I'm already VERY angry with Blizzard for that I mean, changing some rules to add some spice if fine, but all seems more oriented to nerf farming bot, and they didn't care about regular players.

They have built instances like Naxx WITH mods like decursive in mind, as it's about impossible to manually decurse and depoision a 40 man raid every 20 seconds. We'll see, but thanks to the ant-brain of Blizzard developers, now we have to bear with changes that will make easy bosses hard like hell.

Anyway, a simple live *intelligent* list with ppl cursed / poisoned would be already a great help. Intelligent 'cuz I'd like to be able to avoid to dispell stuff from ppl that doesn't need (e.g. mana eating curse on warriors).

If (if) clicking on the frame could throw the right spell would be perfect.

Could you please work on that ? Atm decursive in BC deosn't even shows the live list...

Cheers, Arz

Thx ZombiePope for your answer, but I already knew, through official forums, that such auto-cleansing mods like Decursive would no longer work, at least with BC, and perhaps from next patch on.

My question was purely technical, as version 1.9.8.4 was described as "BC and Lua 5.1.1" compatible, and is seen as "incompatible" on the PTR (not BC closed beta one), that is patch 2.0.X.

My purpose was precisely to see whether Decursive would still work before BC, or if we had to prepare for manual decurse as soon as patch 2.0, that is probably early December. Not being able to launch the add-on prevents me from answering this question.

I'm not Arch but I'm passing through and I'll reply to stuff I know the answers to. :)

@chillinvillain:

Decursive is a LUA UI addon, not a "3rd party program". You don't seem to understand the difference. I recommend asking in the official WoW forums, or reading the stickies there. In any case, this is one of the most popular addons in all of WoW. Most raiding priests, mages, paladins, druids, and shamans use it or something like it. Many warlocks use it too. No one gets banned for using Decursive.

@Gnomuz:

Decursive will not work on the PTR, nor will it work in the upcoming patch, nor will it ever work again. No mod like Decursive will ever work again, at least not in combat. Mods will no longer be able to intelligently select spells, ranks, or targets in combat. "Automated" cleansing mods are dead forever. The best bet for people who want to dispel efficiently is to get a click-casting mod and a set of unit frames that displays debuffs and out-of-range status effectively. For more details, see this:

Arch, friend said DeC was cited as the 3rd party program he was insta-banned for. Can you answer here (and if possible, send me a note) about if this [program] could possibly be construed as a EULA violation?

I tried to use Decursive 1.9.8.4 on European PTR, but the add-on is detected as "incompatible" (in french in the text ^^) in the add-on management interface when I check "Launch outdated add-ons". Otherwise, it's detected as outdated as usual.

Did I do something wrong, or is it a known issue ?

BTW thx again for this great add-on and your efforts

Archarodim please see your installer thread and my PM... the addon doesn't work with more than 21 addons. Or more than 21 folders... I dunno
