nUI -- A full feature standalone UI replacement - Page 34

That bug's my fault (well... okay... they all are ~grin~)

I turned show on for all of the normally hidden map buttons so I could be sure I had picked them all up and lined them up correctly and forgot to turn it back off... so you're mousing over a button that isn't initialized and that's causing the error.

My bad.

I am using a few other addons, but they don't seem to be interfering with nUI. I'll be trying out nUI with some other higher level characters to see how they work out coz at the moment I've only tested on a low lvl hunter.

I am getting some errors and nui is a blank console with the mini map in the upper right corner and the chat box in lower left. Log into my lowbie rogue and I get this: this is with the 2.6 update, the patch and the 3rd file you sent us Spiel. No add ons at all, (clean interface and new wtf folders).

I tried my priest and was only getting the pet bar error.

Try to relax Spiel, they mean well.

Take your time fixing. We all appreciate your coding time.

Oh I realize that. Just feel the pressure sometimes is all.

Sodorfo · 08-23-08, 10:56 AM

it gets done when it gets done... if we expected prefect, we wouldn't be testing the prerelease right?

we appreciate everything you are doing and wish you the best man.

so relax, breathe deep and swat those bugs as ya can ok?

I did, too. But, I loved giving my 2 week notice even more. I've been doing the happy dance ever since. I've been out and about all day getting stuff for my new office. Now it looks more like "me", and less like a white-walled cell.

spiel2001 · 08-24-08, 06:19 AM

Well.. I feel better today... said to heck with it and took a day off from coding and spent the day getting my butt kicked in AB and kicking butt in AV. Why is it that alliance is allergic to winning in AB?

~lol~

Anyway... back to code. I still want to put out an update tonight and I still want to make a public release tomorrow, but I haven't heard from any of the translators yet save one (he knows who he is ~smile~)

Hope everyone's having a good weekend.

MeqTrader · 08-24-08, 07:01 AM

Jup,

good to hear you have taken the time away from coding and actually enjoying the game (that's what it's there for). Looking forward to any changes you are able to throw our way, I will keep on hammering at the latest version out now and will post feedback whenever my twisted mind comes up with something.

iljott · 08-24-08, 07:41 AM

Glad to hear you've taken some time off to unwind Spiel! Everyone needs a bit of rest and in this case, you most of all!

Looking forward to your bug fixes and next beta release.

Archippus · 08-24-08, 11:10 AM

I think we could all help Spiel out in a major way by deleting any rogue characters that we might have, and pledge never to play one again.

That sounds like a great plan to me

~lol~

You'd do that for me, wouldn't you?

~snicker~

EDIT: Of course, I do realize that being a rogue, I can be all but assured you would be sneaky and deceitful and no doubt lying through your teeth about it when you told me you had. ~wink~

NOTE: This post is for the benefit of nUI supporters and translators who are receiving pre-release updates of nUI Beta 2 via e-mail. The version referred to in this post is not available for public download at this time.

----------------------------------------------------

Okay –

This one is pretty heavily tested and I think it’s going to be stable. I still have the issue with the buff/debuff icons and a few things to sort out, but the issues that made such a message of the #6 update should be resolved. Likewise, almost all of the taint bugs have been fixed, as well. I completely recoded the pet bar, possession bar and shapeshift bar for this update and I believe they are solid now.

I am still missing language files for German, Chinese and Simplified Chinese, as well.

Thanks to everyone for their continued support and testing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Known Issues:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Party unit frames are not picking up level ups

* still some issues with buff/debuff icons and timers ~sigh~

* Some action buttons highlight as invalid/unavailable when they shouldn't... hunter's
feed pet button, rogue's distract, etc.

* Carbonite is having issues updating the directional arrow when the minimap and/or
battlefield minimap is hidden in the info panel

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To-Do List
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Fubar and Titan support are not enabled, so the console does not automatically
move with those bars. I will have both of these items resolved soon.

* Along the same lines... the 15, 20, 25 and 40 man raid panels are not in the pre-release...
both because I am not quite satisfied with them and, again, I'm trying to not have to fix
everything at once... make sure the core stuff is all working, then add the bells and
whistles if you understand.

* Experience and reputation bars need to be added back in

* Add Talent Build/Spec back

* Add Range Indicator back

* Add Threat Bar back

* Add rogue combo points to unit frames/HUD (forgot they were on the HUD before)

* Add sorting of raid unit frames by raid group and class

* Add font size options for Chat and Combat log frames

* Add keybindings for button bag, unit panel, info panel and hud layout buttons

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.00.07 (Alpha)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Fixed chat frame edit box strata error that sometimes caused the chat frame edit box
to be overlayed by the chat frame itself.

* Fixed a long list of combat taint errors

* Rewrote possession bar, pet bar and shapeshift bar to fix layering bug from 2.06

* Fixed a configuration file initialization error that prevented nUI from loading on
toons it had not already loaded for previously (that did not have a saved options file)

* Fixed a pet feeder bug that would "crash" the feeder button on the main pet frame
in some situations.

* Several new performance tuning tweaks in the unit frames and other update loops

* Updated frFR, esES, enGB localization files

OMFG.

This layout is SO nice! Also, the default HUD bars and colors are miles and miles better than the previous HUD. I am so glad nUI is becoming stable and we are seeing the fruits of your labor.

I am having a blast playing with the options. My donation will be on the way this week. I love having this UI.

Thanks Jungle --

I was just going through your e-mail and I see that the problem you have previously has resolved itself. Unfortunately I couldn't see the root of the problem because the first error you sent me wasn't the first error that triggered the cascade.

The next time something like that comes up, you might also do a "/swatter clear" to reset your error log and then reload and go back to the first error message in the list "ID: 1" as that will be the one that was the root cause of the rest.

I appreciate the moral boost ~smile~

MeqTrader · 08-24-08, 11:23 PM

thx for this release again, I must thank you for all the patience and long hours you've put in to get us this far is such a short amount of time.

noble8 · 08-25-08, 02:15 AM

I am off all week....

However i must say its been a joy leveling from 60-70 with no idea when i might level. Turns out, after i disabled nUI for a short moment, I was a bar of 70

Thanks for the update.
