Anti-Error Addon

[hipjipp]

Could anyone who know proper LUA-coding have the mercy to write a addon that kills all errors in the errorframe but without the ace-libs? I'm tired of having ErrorMonster taking up second most in the list due to ace addons...

Now... My guess is that as soon as you disable Error Monster, you'll see another Ace addon's memory take 2nd on the list due to library usage. Why? Because all mods share one set of libraries.

no, its actually only ErrorMonster and CowTip that are using ace-libs in my addon collection now.. slimmed it down as much as possible without losing functunality... But it'd be really nice if anyone would like to do this.

I use BugSack and have never seen it in my Top 20, but it's an Ace addon. Sorry.

I know the Auctioneer team have an ImprovedErrorFrame addon but I am no longer familiar with what it does nor how much memory it uses.

If you really just want to kill off the error messages, not store them, you can always run:

/script seterrorhandler(function() end);

Or better yet, remove all your error-managing addons and then uncheck the "Show Lua errors" box in the interface options. You shouldn't see the error messages anymore.

BugSack and ErrorMonster do two different things.

BugSack is a front-end for BugGrabber...and BugGrabber catches interface/lua errors.

ErrorMonster mutes messages like:
* Ability is not ready yet.
* Not enough energy
* There is nothing to attack.
* That ability requires combo points
* Your target is dead
* Another action is in progress

Ah, now this makes a little more sense :P

Anyway, if you just want to hide all of those errors, you can always do a /script UIErrorsFrame:Hide() for a quick fix

I remember reading that once awhile back. Thanks for correcting and reminding me.

Morning people!

Thanks for the help, i'm gonna try to put the "UIErrorsFrame:Hide()" into one of my hiding LUA files and see if it helps.
