There are two answers to your question and rather than retype them, I'm going to refer you to them

Hving said that, before you go jumping of replacing everything that's different from what you're used to, you might want to consider waiting a while and giving yourself a chance to get used to what nUI has built into it.

As for the OOR and DEAD signs... they are more than that... that also include AFK, FD and some other things.

the second one is the OOR and dead signs over party members can i turn that off?

thank you so much for this addon and thank you for you help

My bad, that has nothing to do with nUI.

Actually I have that for weeks now. Guess i was just too tired, saw the error again and thought "OH NOES! Let's post that in the nUI forum!"

Kool ty , I did not see that in the list of stuff the mod did so had to ask. then that make one more mod out the window do to nUI

DO you plan on making A FAQ or wikki for all the stuff, if so Iam willing to help out and read thou the post to find em , it really would make thing eazer I think to have one so people can see if thier question is already answered

Raptorz · 12-12-08, 04:14 PM

I have a little suggestion for you.

Maybe you could make the top bar an LibDataBroker-display bar(thing). And I think that the HUD-type button looks a little silly where it is now. But it's just my opinion.

But the LDB-display thing would be great!

spiel2001 · 12-12-08, 06:03 PM

Gawd... I would love it if someone would go through all the posts and create a detailed FAQ for nUI so I wouldn't have to keep answering the same questions every fourth message ~lol~

Absolutely not going to happen. It runs contrary to everything nUI is about and nUI will never require third party libraries of any kind. Perhaps as an optional support thing sometime in the future, but never required.

As for the HUD button, it will soon be joined by a gold tracker, wardrobe manager, ammo tracker, possessions tracker and some other built-ins -- as for the design of the button visually, that will get attended to at some point as well. But that general area where the button is has already been designated for a collection of key elements, it just happens the HUD button is the only one there yet.

Im a bit confused is there a reason you cant just use another mod for a ldb display I use titan it works seamlessly with nui i even turned the transparency off so that it looks like its built in to nuis layout

It was just an idea. Nothing more.

1 other thing came to my mind yesterday: I use nUI_InfoPanel_Minimap and I love the place of the minimap but I was thinking that if you change the InfoPanel view (f.ex. to combat log) it would put the minimap into the original place. So I can see the minimap (without disabling the addon) when I change the view into something else.

Thanks!

spiel2001 · 12-13-08, 03:49 AM

That is a very complicated thing to do because of combat taint and so on... Bliz doesn't like it when you start moving things around during combat. It can be done, but the whole thing would have a snowball effect.

Maybe it could queue the moving and move the frame when you leave combat.
If it's even possible.

Well then as I have free time and find stuff list here Ill start to add it to a file. Guess Ill need to see if there's some place I can put up a wikki or free page, that I can use as an on going spot to post them.

spiel2001 Got something for you and I thought I would toss it your way. On the dayly quest Ace's High I notice that when I mount the drake I almost never get the vehicle panel popping up. Now don't get me wrong I really dislike having that panel hop on my screen covering alot of my character info. Do you have any idea why this happens and if there is a way to disable the vehicle screen from showing at all? Other than that I only have one small issue but I dont remember what it is atm so ill post it later when I think about it.

neuralassassin · 12-13-08, 09:40 AM

hey just wanted everyone to know that an updated version of dr damage is now up at http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...dr-damage.aspx it includes support for nui and a couple other fixes from the author

spiel2001 · 12-13-08, 10:56 AM

Well... I have a web server of my own available to me and Kodewulf was kind enough to create a domain and host it for me last night (but I've not had a chance to look at it or do anything with it yet as I've been busy all morning) at http://www.nuiaddon.com -- are there any artistical web-creative types that would want to take on the task of creating a "site" for nUI?

PS: A public thank you to Kodewulf for doing that.

If you disable nUI and do that quest, do you get the vehicle panel?

There's a ton of bugs in the vehicle system, so I just like to start by making sure nUI is actually the problem and not a Bliz bug.

As for disabling the vehicle screen... if you don't need the vehicle panel because it has no features on it that nUI doesn't support yet, you can use the following command to hide it.

/script VehicleMenuBar:Hide()

Sometimes Bliz will get pushy and keep re-showing the frame on you. If it does that, you can use the following command to make it transparent (it will still interfere with your mouse, but you can at least see through it)

/script VehicleMenuBar:SetAlpha( 0 )

Thank you Kodewulf!

Scott, I would but I'm retired in that department... my business partner took over that end of things.

spiel2001 · 12-13-08, 11:21 AM

As a matter of record, the latest release of Dr. Damage now includes support for nUI. My thanks to Gagorian for getting it done.

You can pick up Dr. Damage at http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-a...dr-damage.aspx

Note: You must have nUI v4.06 or later installed to integrate the two mods.

However, that said, it's becoming clear that I need to option this feature on and off as there seem to be enough people asking about it to warrant that. I'll try and fit it into the schedule for this weekend's update.

That would be great and much appreciated. TY And again, job well done.
