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.

What in the world would make you associate unit frames with the lfr icon? they literally have nothing to do with each other. Minimap addons would be the place to look for that issue.

Support stop for this add-on? As patches have grown, my LFR eye icon will not load. Whenever i start up on a character i need to reload to make it work. Resets to the issue after i enter a new load screen.

local color
local pType, pToken, altR, altG, altB = UnitPowerType(unit)
local pCur, pMax, pCurMana, pMaxMana = Power(unit), MaxPower(unit), Power(unit, 0), MaxPower(unit, 0)

if (pMax > 0) then
  if PitBull4.PowerColors[pToken] then
    color = PitBull4.PowerColors[pToken]
  else
    if (not altR) then
      color = PitBull4.PowerColors["MANA"]
    else
      color = {[1] = altR, [2] = altG, [3] = altB}
    end
  end
  
  if (pToken ~= "MANA") then
    if (pMaxMana > 0) then
      local DManaColor = PitBull4.PowerColors["MANA"]
      return "|cff%02x%02x%02x%s |cff%02x%02x%02x%s", color[1]*255, color[2]*255, color[3]*255, Short(pCur, true), DManaColor[1]*255, DManaColor[2]*255, DManaColor[3]*255, Short(pCurMana, true)
    end
  else
    return "|cff%02x%02x%02x%s", color[1]*255, color[2]*255, color[3]*255, Short(pCur, true)
  end
end

Is it possible to make this code show as "current insted of short" f.ex show mana aka power as 32000 insted of 32.0k ?

Thanks for the great addon. I am trying to make it so I can display only debuffs on my targets target. When I check the show debuff option under layout/aura section, nothing appears. Only buffs will show up when checked, debuffs do not. Any suggestions?

I wanted texts on health bar to show something like this:
Percent HP
Current HP/Max HP
So, I have put in luatext window return "%s%%\n%s/%s",Percent(HP(unit),MaxHP(unit)),HP(unit),MaxHP(unit)
but the result looks like this:
100%...
and not showing current hp/max hp part at all. It seems multi line text is shortened for some reason. Is there any work-around for this?

Are you using Chinchilla minimap by chance or any other minimap addons outside of sexymap? If so chinchilla interferes with boss frames.

I have an issue that once I have enabled boss unit frames in PitBull they only show up once I have entered a raid and then do a /reloadui. If the reloadui is not done then I will not get boss frames to show up.

I continue to run into an issue where once (in a party) I enter a battleground or arena, my teammates' frames vanish, leaving only mine. I have tried a few things and nearly destroyed my settings. Has anyone encountered this and happened to discover a fix for it? I love this addon and wouldn't want to settle for anything less.

Great work on this by the way, I wish I knew what I was doing wrong that made my party's unit frames vanish though :(

Does the Blizzard API allow for a Bodyguard unit frame in Draenor? Playing a hunter with Defender Ilona can be fiddly with misdirect, especially as each time an in-game cutscene or event plays it removes your focus target.

Obviously a rather niche need, but would be nice :)

Bodyguards don't have a unit Id so it's not easy to do. There are a few addons that try and emulate a unitframe but I would assume they are tempermental due to the limitations by blizzard

So I have noticed that on health and power bars that show empty, there is a slim line to the left (when not inverted or set to deplete) instead of nothing. Basically a few pixel strip still showing.

Not sure if a bug or if there is a way to shift it to not show that line. Notice the red line in the bottom left of the image.

Edit: solved my own issue. It seems I had the width ending in an odd number (325). Switching it to 324 solved this. I guess with my resolution and hte way the frames scaled, (scaling was at 100%) it drew this funny.

Removing the annoying large image.

Hi there,

I just tried out this addon and I really like it ! Very customizable and good looking, good job to the devs.

I have a question though, in the buff/debuff highlight section, I tried some custom colors to highlight dispellable buffs by me and whether I check Color By Type or not, it only shows a blue border. I don't see any changes whenever its enable or not, i'd really like this option to work since it would be pretty useful to know when I can dispell something in BGs or arenas.

Thank you !

When in a raid it does not show the empty slots between different groups when the groups are being sorted.

Like for archimonde who goes into the portal etc. e.g. they put 3 ppl in one grp and leave the rest of the grp-slots empty, Pitbull just fills them up with ppl of the next grp so that I always have to take a look @ blizzard's ui to know who is in wich group, because of Pitbull not showing empty slots inbetween the groups.

Is there any way to set it so that empty group slots within a raid are being shown and noticeable?

Got an error after trying to cast my zone ability in fight. After reloading the ui it worked fine. Not sure if the fact that I build the outpost only a few minutes before (so no loadscreen in between) had something to with it.

Hello. Thank you very much for the add-on. It is very versatile, and so far it has met all of my needs. One thing I cannot figure out though, is how to display my party number (e.g. party #1, party #2, etc) when I am in a raid.

Thanks again.

edit: I should also note that I've looked through the guide, but couldn't find anything obvious.

For some reason, the Totems module was enabled on my mage. I couldn't figure out why I had this little transparent box or how the heck to get rid of it. I was literally unchecking every module to try to find it :/

Still having a problem where changing the strata to 'background' or 'low' is making auras blink.
