PitBull Unit Frames 4.0

Woof. Arf. Yip.

Getting Started:

You can help translate PitBull for your language with the localization tool.

Classic

PitBull works with WoW Classic! Classic Era/Vanilla is supported in v4.3.x-vanilla releases. Cataclysm Classic is supported in v4.2.x releases (the same releases retail use).

Classic Era caveats:

Aura duration is not available from the API, so PitBull uses LibClassicDurations to show them. The duration can be inaccurate if it's affected by rank or talents.
Cast info is only available for your spells from the API. PitBull uses LibClassicCasterino to show cast bars for other units, but this can be inaccurate since there is a lot of guess-work involved.

I've used Pitbull for a few years but only ran into this problem now. My party frames simply don't show, I've tried disabling all addons except pitbull and clearing the saved variables.

Note that wierd aura thingys lying around that dissapear when party frames are disabled.

As noted in the tooltip when you selected Party Config Mode... config mode for groups has been disabled while we work on fixing the bug that makes those frames not show up.

Meanwhile, you can configure them on a singleton frame config and apply to your party, or configure them live in a group. (Config mode just makes sample frames, you can actually configure your frames without it)

@angrysteel, You don't need to modify the softMin and softMax to exceed those values. Just type whatever you want in the box. softMin and softMax only limit the range the slider works with. I figure the +/-200 is a reasonable value. People that want more than that are probably doing something out of the ordinary and can just type in the box.

With Pitbull 3, it was possible to offset buffs / debuffs by a very large amount. With PB4 you are restricted to an offset of 200 in any direction.

The fix is quite simple, just open Interface > Addons > Pitbull4_Aura > Options and change:

softMin = -200, softMax = 200,

to

softMin = -1200, softMax = 1200,

These items are around line 1750ish.

Is there any chance to get these lines updated / changed to default to 1200 instead of 200, or is there a reason offsetting buffs and debuffs were limited so much in PB4?

Thanks either way! Keep up the good work, <3 the addon.

Heya gang. So far so good. Everything is pretty easy to set up and relatively easy to figure out. Even got my wife to load it, anyway... Is there anyway to add the elite dragon on frames or some indication of an elite like a highlighted border like pb3 used to do.

Thanks

PB4 does add a border to the elite frames (its gold) You can adjust it if you are having any difficulty seeing it by doign so under /pb Layout Editor > Other > Border

Seems I do not have >Border in my settings. I'll reload the newest beta and check again.

Hello,

first of all awesome work you're doing. I'm loving PitBull.

My problem are the unit frames playing up as soon as I enter a raid with names being being displayed multiple times and buggrabber going ballistic.

Hope you can help me

1 - What version of Pitbull are you using?
2- If you are using Beta19, please attach your buggrabber errors (just c/p to a text document) to the existing ticket (wowace login/pw is same as here) about names sometimes duplicating. -- We are aware of a few reports of the issue, but no one has reported actually getting an error when it happens... just that it happens. And we haven't been 100% able to reliably replicate.
2a - If you aren't using Beta19 please update and see if that fixes the issue for you.

If you want to ask about custom Luatexts your best option is to ask on one of the luatext forum threads, such as on wowace or elitistjerks

Yes, I know it's Caellian, but perhaps the code to show the life of the boss, and the same, you can type in "Pitbull" Custom options under "health Text", I'm not handy, I do not know if it typed, a LUA code, or other

You can definitely replicate that by using two different luatext scripts.

Here's the left side of the player frame with percent of total and deficit:
local curhp = HP(unit)
local maxhp = MaxHP(unit)
return "%s%% -%s",Percent(curhp,maxhp),maxhp-curhp

Here's the right side of the player frame showing what I assume is just Max HP:
return MaxHP(unit)

For the boss frame I'm guessing that's remaining HP in percent and short format.
local curhp = HP(unit)
local maxhp = MaxHP(unit)
return "%s - %s%%",Short(curhp),Percent(curhp,maxhp)

This page has an excellent introduction to luatexts, and is pretty much the closest thing to a manual on the subject you'll find.

Had to upgrade to this since Pitbull 3 is outdated now and I have 2 questions (for now) 1. is it possible to change something on the player frame and target frame separately? my old setup had name, health and mana/rage text and my target just had name, health and lvl where the mana/rage text would be on my player frame. 2. is there more options to move the texts instead of just left,right,center,outside?

http://s.wowinterface.com/preview/pvw25810.jpg this is what my old UI looked like and what im trying to get the unit frames to look like again

Absolutely its possible! PB3 made you build a layout for every single type of frame. A simple "make a matching layout" meant repeating your steps for every frame you wanted to look alike. PB4 is built so that you make layouts you like, and then apply them to as many or as few frames as YOU prefer.

To get things to look different, you just need to make a new layout. You can have as many or as few of layouts as you like. The guide linked above can help you with making layouts.

I play primarily in windowed mode except for the times that I am raiding. I have not had my frames move unless I'm moving them myself.

Are you using the latest version of PB4?
Have you tested this with just PB4 loaded in your add ons?
