Broker: TalentSwitch - No longer supported Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: No Longer supported

by: Tymesink [More]

This addon is no longer supported. I would suggest using the following addon as a replacement:

Ara Broker SpecSwitcher

Broker: TalentSwitch is a LibDataBroker based info addon. This is a very simple addon which provides a simple and easy way
to switch between Primary and Secondary Talent specs.

Data Broker Display
This plugin does not provide a display of its own, you will need to install display plugin such as Fortress, Carousel or Docking Station, amongst others.

Extended thanks to
- PatoDaia for the esES language file
- mrgyver for the koKR language file
- fuyuri for the zhTW language.

Optimization

To optimize CPU consumption, avoid looking for every spell cast. Hook SetActiveTalentGroup. Here is a code sample:

Code:

local orgSetActiveTalentGroup = _G.SetActiveTalentGroup

function SetActiveTalentGroup(...)
	f:RegisterEvent"UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEEDED"
	f:RegisterEvent"UNIT_SPELLCAST_STOP"
	ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM", SpamFilter)
	return orgSetActiveTalentGroup(...)
end

function f:UNIT_SPELLCAST_STOP(event, unit, spell)
	if unit ~= "player" then return end
	self:UnregisterEvent"UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEEDED"
	self:UnregisterEvent"UNIT_SPELLCAST_STOP"
	ChatFrame_RemoveMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM", SpamFilter)
end
f.UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEEDED = f.UNIT_SPELLCAST_STOP

Cheers

I tested with Docking Station and the addon does work with Docking Station.

You may have to delete the old settings file (<World of Warcraft Directory>\WTF\Account\<ACCOUNTNAME>\SavedVariabled)
for every character (World of Warcraft Directory>\WTF\Account\<ACCOUNTNAME>\<REALM>\<CHARACTER>\SavedVariables\).

Deleted any file that contains the name "Broker_TalentSwitch".

Please let me know if that fixes the problem or if you continue to have problems with Docking Station.

I got it to work now, you have to delete the old settings file
for every character.

Ok.. I will work on that tonight. Thank you for reporting this.

Any errors with that? Or the addon just isn't displaying anything?

DualSpeccer has that (if you wanna have a look at the code).

That's correct. Show the custom name for each in the LDB tooltip and identify which is active and which is the alternate spec.

I like these ideas and I see value in it. I'll work on it later this week when I get caught up on my client work. Thanks guys for the advice / feature request to make this addon better.

So for those ppl out used the custom name feature and used the word "Tank" or "DPS" or some other naming convention, on the tooltip to display the Primary & Secondary Talent Spec in the tooltip?

Nice touch with the custom spec naming feature. I switched to this from DualSpeccer. One feature that I liked about DualSpeccer was it displayed both your current and alternate specs in the tooltip. Would you please consider adding this functionality?

But could you modify the package to be compatible with WoWInterface UI Updater ? Seems it doesnt support .rar files.

Keep the good work !

Yes can you please archive in ZIP format instead?
