FYI, I have just dropped a ticket for a bug I found in the raid output formatting. When I output a timer to raid chat, it gives something along the lines of "1 Hr:Hr 13 Mins:Mins 27 Secs:Secs" which is a bit of a pain in the butt to read. :-)
ok i downloaded this hoping it would show rarespawns and i dont think it does i cant get a timer for spawn im looking for or previous rarespawns that i have found... does this work in instances only? cuz i cant get simple zone mobs to trigger the mod. i have moved my anchor and have a mini map button so i know its atleast enabled. also is there any way to select what mob i want it to show in the zone im in?
It gives you timers for certain critical timers in raid instances. Usually 1 mob in each pack is attached to the timer and will start a bar. ie in Black temple each mob pack you kill will start a timer. Only works for certain instances such as BT/Sunwell/ZA/SSC/TK etc.
I left a message on curse for this AddOn, but have not seen any response yet. Here is the text of my message:
I don't understand how this works. I enabled it but I have yet to see any timer bars appear. Does it only work in certain areas or around certain mobs, or what? A little more explanation would be helpful.
I did read the readme.txt in the zip, and it gave plenty of information for manipulating the Incubator bars, but nothing about how to initially display any bars. It is not obvious from the UI or information given how to do this.

The first (on some rare occasions maybe the second) time you log in, there should be an "anchor" in the middle of your game screen/window, which you may move and lock (there's a tooltip to clarify that).
In case there is nothing to see at this point, try the slash command, since most add-ons I know have one, in this case it's /incubator and it posts some information about possible parameters to the chat frame.
So when you follow those options, you reach "/incubator baroptions locked" which locks and unlocks the previously mentioned anchor, but if the anchor doesn't show when using that command there's probably something wrong with your copy of Incubator (in that case re-download and -install it) or it's incompatible with another add-on though that should be rather unlikely (in that case try loading incubator only, no other add-ons, and see if it works).
If it locked and disabled itself in the beginning and doesn't automatically activate when needed, you might have to use "/incubator standby" to enable the add-on (at least once).
Other than that, I don't see why it wouldn't work, since that's about all I did (tried) and it seems to work just fine for me.
