Known issues

PB breaks Skinner's nameplate skin. Explanation here

FAQ:
Q) Will PlateBuffs work on mobs?
A) Yes. but since mobs can share the same name you'll need to target or mouseover the nameplate so PlateBuffs can determine which nameplate belongs to what mob. Once that nameplate disappears from the screen and reappears you'll need to mouseover/target again.
Q) What's the question mark for?
A) It can mean 2 things. 1) We don't know what mob that nameplate belongs to, 2) We don't know what spells are on that mob/player. In both cases you need to target/mouseover the nameplate.
Q) Will PB work with non default nameplates?
A) PB should work with Tidy Plates, Aloft, dNameplates and caelNameplates. PB may or may not work with other nameplate addons.
Q) Can I have specific buff options?
A) Yes. Open PlateBuff's options (/pb) and go to the Specific Spells menu. In there you can add spells and choose always/mine/never show, icon size and cooldown text size. Some spells are added by default to have large icons.
Q) Why do spells blink?
A) Spells will blink if there's less then 20% of the time remaining.
Q) Can you add a clockwise cooldown overlay to the spell icons?
A) Unfortunately the clock cooldown doesn't work well on frames that are constantly moving around the screen. It tends to disappear while the frame's moving and only appear when the icon's perfectly still. So as soon as you move, they move or your camera moves (including breathing up and down motion) the overlay disappears. Sorry.
Q) What do all these spells in the Specific Spells list do?
A) If you're unfamiliar on what spells do what effects, enable the Add Spell Description option on the main screen. That will add a spell icon and spell description to each of the spells. When enabled, PlateBuffs' memory usage will go up around 2MB (memory usage only impacts login/load time, not FPS).
Q) How do I turn off all buffs except those on my Specific Spells list?
A) In PlateBuffs' options, set both "Show Buffs" and "Show Debuffs" to none.

i have sent a PM to that author, to try to understand whether they want to take ownership of the addon, etc. i also need to try to reach Cyprias, and see if he intends to return to play MoP (he did return last expansion, and updated PlateBuffs himself).

if they don't, then i can take over (starting with sifting through the changes in the fan update, incorporating and releasing them, hopefully here and certainly on Curse... i have project management priveleges on Curse already, but i am not sure about here).

hopefully we can get this sorted out in the next few days.

fostic_popcorn A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 3 File comments: 51 Uploads: 2	Thanks so much Kesava, that worked great for me. LibNameplate was also throwing errors for me (because GetNumRaidMembers was deprecated this patch). It can be updated here: http://www.wowace.com/addons/libnameplate-1-0/ Simply copy/paste LibNameplate-1.0.lua into the directory: PlateBuffs/libs/LibNameplate-1.0 Hope this helps!

Kesava A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 133 Uploads: 3	Replace core.lua and frames.lua with these versions to fix this for 5.0.4. Fixed: core.lua and frames.lua. For reference I've "updated" totemList in core.lua (line 29) by removing totems which no longer exist. In frames.lua, I've removed a call to SetDrawEdge, which seems to have been removed as a function. I haven't thoroughly tested it but it seems to work.

--	if self.isDebuff then

--~ 			self.skin:Show()

--	end

That'll skip displaying the border around the icons.

This worked for me, thank you for posting it. I realize this post is quite outdated, but if anybody sees this, can you let me know if it's possible to change the border entirely? Into a, say, 1px square border (as opposed to the blizzard style rounded square border)? Thanks!

Chokka A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	This code in addon (in file frames.lua, local function iconOnShow(self)): Code: if P.showCooldown == true and self.expirationTime > 0 then self.cdbg:Show() self.cd:Show() if P.showCooldownTexture == true then self.cdtexture:SetCooldown(self.startTime, self.duration); self.cdtexture:Show() end end Should be replaced as follows: Code: if P.showCooldownTexture == true and self.expirationTime > 0 then self.cdtexture:SetCooldown(self.startTime, self.duration); self.cdtexture:Show() end if P.showCooldown == true and self.expirationTime > 0 then self.cdbg:Show() self.cd:Show() end Why? Becouse in first case we had 2 different mode of cooldown show. First mode - show only text under icon. Second mode - show text under icon and standart blizz cooldown texture on icon. In the second case, when we replaced the original code we get an additional mode to the first two. Namely disable showing text under icon and enable show standart blizz cooldown texture. This is the third mode is useful when you use an addon that modifies blizzard default display cooldown mode, for example OmniCC. It allows you to do so, that-would you have worked your OmniCC at PlateBuffs icon and displayed by OmniCC text is not duplicated by PlateBuffs. I will copy-paste that text to curce and ace comments becouse dont know where is official autor support.
