Battle Herald  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v1.04
by: Klishu [More]

Battle Herald provides features to enhance your battleground/PvP experience!

  • Battle Herald provides a vocal announcer, with professional voice-overs, for important events as they occur in Battlegrounds and World PvP zones.
  • In addition to this, Battle Herald adds colourful, animated text alerts in the middle of the screen to help you react much more quicker to whatever happens in the battle. This also replaces the standard text pops in Arathi Basin and The Battle for Gilneas which were not very clear.
  • It replaces the standard battleground status text at the top of the screen with more visible and meaningful heads-up displays for select battlegrounds (ie. Warsong Gulch, Alterac Valley, Arathi Basin, Eye of the Storm, Isle of Conquest, The Battle for Gilneas and Twin Peaks).
  • In Capture the Flag maps, mousing over the flag icons displays the name of the flag carrier.

All this can be configured through the Interface Options menu (select Addons and open the Battle Heralds list) which lets you select which alerts you would like to receive as well as set the size of the Battleground info UI. You can unlock/lock the position of the Battleground UI by typing in /bh toggleui and reset its position again with /bh resetui.

Get Battle Herald and start owning your opponents in battlegrounds!

Battle Herald v1.04
  • Fixed an error that was appearing for "Assaulted" alerts inside Arathi Basin and The Battle for Gilneas.
  • Fixed a bug where the original Blizzard announcements were not being suppressed in Arathi Basin, The Battle for Gilneas, Tol Barad and Wintergrasp.

Battle Herald v1.03
  • Release version for WoW Patch 4.2.

Battle Herald v1.02
  • Fixed the v1.01 bugs. The features should now work correctly.

Battle Herald v1.01
  • Hovering your mouse cursor over the flag icons in Warsong Gulch and Twin Peaks now displays the name of the flag carrier.
  • Added the /bh toggleui command which unlocks the Battleground info UI and lets you drag it around the screen. Type it again to lock the UI in place. You can change the position of each battleground's UI separately.
  • Added the /bh resetui to reset the position of all Battleground info UIs.
  • Added a Battleground UI Scale slider in the Interface options which lets you set the size of the Battleground ground info UI.
  • Fixed an error that used to pop up.

I am absolutely in love with this and it has already saved my ass a few times while carrying flag for instant recognition of our returns.. Couple suggestions though would make it my favorite pvp addon:

1. The ability to select or turn off certain specific audio messages. (The spam from WSG/TP flag vulnerability increases can drown out more important things like flag returns.)

2. The display of Enemy Flag Carrier health pools underneath the UI icon or somewhere, I know at least one other addon that does this.

3. A little more customization of the base UI. It seems too bulky to me, things like "1st to 2000" aren't really necessary except for total newbs.

Otherwise, like I said..this thing rocks. Thank you very much for your work.

Thanks for the report guys. I'll admit that I didn't have enough time to test this thoroughly. What happened is that Blizzard removed a particular function and it appears I missed one of them in the code.

Along with that after the first set of captures in AB every time someone takes a point in the BG its spams an error message. Only on the first message that the alliance or horde has attacked the point the capture message works just fine.

Well only two bugs I've found so far... assault messages do not seem to work, atleast in BoG, haven't done AB yet. Also the addon isn't suppressing the default on-screen messages... a lot spam. :S

Haven't tested this addon out for myself yet, but it seems great, hoping for an update. Also, could you include a timer in seconds for Warsong Gulch and Twin Peaks, if there isn't one already? Also, could you add a way to announce things in chat?

Till a fix is posted Ive had to disable this addon for now due to the amount of errors it gives. Hopefully it will be fixed soon as I was really starting to like using this and getting the amount of information that the addon gave as to the status of PVP objectives.

Unfortunately, until Blizzard fix this strange bug, there is not much I can do.

There's a bug currently that's not allowing me to update the. In certain battlegrounds, the battleground events (eg. "The Alliance has taken the Farm") are not being fired.

Yes. An update for the new version will soon be available.
