v1.3b - Showing the new zone/subzone text

IWD FuBar support!

v1.4 - Added TBC zones!

IWD (fan's update)

IWD (fan's update)

Original mod: http://www.torridreflections.com/wow/ by Torrid.

Features

Clears WorldDefense spam
Shows number of attacks within a given timeframe for each zone
Alerts you when a certain threshold of attacks has been met
Flash the most recent attacked area
Shows you the time since the last attack
new Shows you the zone and sub-zone for each attack, to help easily locate
new Fubar support!
new Audio alert (optional)

IWD replaces the WorldDefense channel spam with a few lines of text floating above your default chat frame. This indicates which zones are being attached, how many attacks have been recorded, how long ago the last attack was and if an area is being pounded; IWD will announce in the chat frame as well.

NOTE: See included ReadMe.txt for instructions.

Known Issues

FuBar-only mode will not auto-deactivate when FuBar itself is not detected, therefore no alerts show in this situation. This option can be changed in the /iwd menu.
Enabling/Disabling the addon via its /iwd menu will throw an error. IWD will, however, still enable/disable correctly.

v1.5.3 is BETA. Ie: there are still some known bugs.. and ones I'm sure are unknown. But its out there.. and works for the most part. Will fix bugs in due course.

Change Log - IWD (fan's update)

- v1.5.4: Updated for 3.1, fixed config bug. No FuBar support atm.
- v1.5.3: Updated for WotLK, however, not all bugs fixed. LUA error re: slider in options panel still outstanding.
- v1.5.2: Updated TOC for compatibility with WoW 2.4; updated zone list to include some new areas.
- v1.5.1: Updated TOC for compatibility with WoW 2.2; no further changes were made at this time.
- v1.5: Hopefully have fixed this frame bug that's been plaguing people. The frame is now on a lower strata than before. Minor visual tweak. Integrated TBC zone names I'd collected. Updated README and in-game help. Fixed /iwd lock command to actually work; same for options menu locking tick box.
- v1.4r1 Bug Fix. This version fixes a bug which would cause the IWD frame to vanish when it had been moved, after a logout. Tweaked move frame.
- v1.4 Stable release. Reworked some internal stuff, the zone list is now in a seperate file to make it easier to update. Also added the option to unlock the IWD alert frame and move it via /iwd menu (requested). Cleaned up the chat alerts and options menu.
- v1.3.9 Stable version; full FuBar support (working!). Bug fixes and zone code cleaned up. Added some code to auto-join WorldDefense in case your not in that channel. Changed debugging code to help track future problems (touch wood etc). Added TBC zones I've collected into the main array.
- v1.3.8-r1 fixes the debug spam, and also fixes a bug I wasnt aware of that meant you coulnd't toggle zone/subzone text properly. Enabling/Disabling IWD from the options screen will throw an error but it still works. I'm looking into this. Again, looked into the FuBar code and it's almost complete.
- v1.3.8 implements a new tracking system to record new zones (primarily Outland areas) to further improve the zone definition list. FuBar support has been tweaked in this version too so hopefully it's working a little better now. I'm still working on adding more options.
- v1.3.7.1b fixes error message related to unresolved FuBar issue.
- Completely rewrote FuBar support
- Fixed colour coding on FuBar
- Added option to mute normal alert in favour of FuBar-only alerts
- Added audio alert option
- Added tooltip to FuBar plugin to display location details
- Added flashing icon to FuBar that will indicate attack severity

Optional Files - IWD (fan's update)

Sorry, there are currently no optional files available.

I realise space could be an issue so I'd like to get a feel for how much you're willing to give up

Thanks in advance.

Uldaman? I had purposefully removed all instances cos I didn't think they'd ever be attacked! But I'll add them back in. I'll also look into the Debug error message. Thanks. Will correct it tonight.

EDIT: Is this a non-english client you're using? Zones names have not been translatedd.. but i'm not sure that you would have to do this..

Defense tracker would create a saved variables file and add new zones you discovered to it automatically, so it could remember them next time. It wasn't a flawless system but it worked pretty well.

I have a 60 horde and 60 alliance so this is pretty complete, probably not 100% but close.

Thanks for that

I'll add it in tonight.

Thanks for picking this up either way.

Ok I'm working on adding the zone names just now. I'm not too sure about Ace2. I usually find Ace2 mods faster and smaller than others, however, IWD is tiny in itself so I'm not sure it would be that useful as I really don't intend on adding too much to IWD. It's one of the main reasons I like it so much; it's small and does what it set out to do and no more.

PS : If you get any errors in regards to zone names, please let me know so I can add them! I don't think the zone list is quite complete; especially for Alliance side!

EDIT: On second thought; whilst I like the idea it's not possible AFAIK since WorldDefense does not provide this information to IWD.

EDIT2: I'm being silly.. not enough caffeine.. I'll look into this for you

theeo123 A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 6 File comments: 9 Uploads: 0	WoW this is cool i used to have a Add-on like this that interfaced directly with titan , i switched to Fu-bar, (for Ace 2 support, and well, cause titan is more or less abandoned) this is one of the features i missed the most any chance of working on a fu-bar integration for it ?
