EventHorizon Vitals

Version: 2.3

by: Taroven [More]

Please remember that your continued donations help to keep EventHorizon alive. I do not play WoW anymore, and though my account is active and currently in good standing, I do not have the financial resources to keep it up for the sole purpose of maintaining addons.

I apologize for the donation window when you download this addon, but I find it does the best job of bringing this situation to the attention of EH's users.

What is EventHorizon_Vitals?
EH_Vitals is a plugin for EventHorizon that displays information EventHorizon normally can or will not. This includes your current power (energy/mana/rage/runic power/runes), weapon enchant timers, and combo points.

All of this information is displayed in a little frame positioned on EventHorizon's edge.

This module also fully supports vehicles, for Ulduar runs and the occasional Malygos kill.

How do I set it up?
EventHorizon_Vitals uses a very similar configuration to EventHorizon itself. This means that it should work quite well without any tweaking whatsoever.

By default, EH_Vitals copies EventHorizon's background and border. Most text is class colored (Exceptions: Runes and vehicle power are colored by type, combo points use a custom coloring scheme).

If you would like to change the behavior of EH_Vitals, have a look at EventHorizon_Vitals/config.lua. This file holds all of the settings for the addon. A file named myconfig.lua may be created for settings that you want to stick around between updates.

There are enough options in there to satisfy even the most power-hungry addon tweaker. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments here.

v2.3: API updates.
* Class warnings will use EventHorizon's info instead of collecting it on their own.
* Priests should no longer see a Vampiric Embrace warning when in a healing spec.
* Added a level check for most class warnings.
* Fixed the useClassColor option.

v2.2: Using an older myconfig with this release probably won't work well. Be sure to check against the new and changed options.
* 4.0.1 and Cataclysm compatibility.
* Cleaned up a lot of code, added notifications for a lot of classes. The actual list of changes is pretty huge.

The reason Vitals is killing your FPS is because of the method it uses to check for EventHorizon's frames and config - Standard event-based processing didn't work well, so I had to resort to less CPU-friendly ways. The next release should hopefully fix both issues. Robi: That error results from running an older version of EventHorizon, usually. If you're definitely running the latest (EventHorizon Continued 1.7b), then it's likely that something in your config got seriously screwed up, resulting in the backdrop color not being present in EH's color table. __________________ Former author of EventHorizon Continued and Other Releases.

It'd be tough fitting that on the frame for every class.

I do, however, have a threat bar module that's in the process of playtesting and general tweaks. I may release it over the weekend, just have some issues to iron out.

Wooo threatbar.....any news? This would be a great addition to EH

Ended up kinda scrapping it due to technical issues. It wasn't playing nice with stance/form changes and really didn't fit with the general theme of EH.

Besides, there are plenty better ways to watch threat.

Sorry about that, I wasn't following usual procedure when I was packaging it up. v2.0+ versions of Vitals may not be used with any version of EventHorizon previous to v1.8. You have been warned. For the curious, the huge version bumps in Vitals are a result of two things: 1) I do not release most versions of Vitals to the public - It's an extremely unstable addon and I provide quite enough chaos with EventHorizon itself. The unreleased versions go to guildies for testing and feedback. 2) I base version numbers off the severity of the changes made. Big changes and additions will generally see a decimal bump, smaller ones get a . I don't suddenly stall version bumps because I'm at v1.9 - It just goes to v2.0. __________________ Former author of EventHorizon Continued and Other Releases.

Correction, it's no longer updating them. Side effect of the load changes, I'll have a new version out soon as I figure out what's going on.

EDIT: Yep, apparently I deleted the rune event script assignment when I got rid of the old load process. My bad. In my defense, it wasn't an obvious thing. I'm fairly confident that nothing else is broken after a quick test.

On the list (No new features planned, this will be a general improvement release): * See about making the number rounding a little less silly. Honestly though, I'll probably just have it blank the display in question on zero. This applies to weapon enchants/poisons and rune cooldowns. * [Edited] Enchant timer updates are now throttled to 1 second (down from 3) and the update has an enforced 1-second delay when enchant information is updated (instead of forcing an update on the spot). This fixes occasional red zeroes when applying or refreshing weapon enchants. * I'll see about a swing/shot timer and POSSIBLY getting EventHorizon_Threat working correctly and released, but no promises. * Actively register with EH instead of just having EH call the init function, conforming to the new plugin policy. __________________ Former author of EventHorizon Continued and Other Releases.

Taroven A Cyclonian Forum posts: 49 File comments: 837 Uploads: 11	That one ain't my fault. Check your config, you have a syntax error. Edit: Just to clarify, that syntax error (most likely you just forgot the comma after runeReady's value) is preventing the rest of your config.lua from being read, which is what the second error is all about. __________________ Former author of EventHorizon Continued and Other Releases.

Lohana A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	Is there any way to add custom cooldown timers to Vitals? I play a shadow priest primarily, and currently only see mana and Inner Fire information. I would love to be able to have a basic timer for the CD time remaining on my shadowfiend and hymns. I apologize if this is already doable and I missed something in the .lua Thanks!

Taroven A Cyclonian Forum posts: 49 File comments: 837 Uploads: 11	Nope. I'd recommend a dedicated cooldown monitor. CoolLine or Sexy Cooldown would be my recommendations, they're both very easy to set up for that sort of purpose. __________________ Former author of EventHorizon Continued and Other Releases.

Jzar A Chromatic Dragonspawn Forum posts: 158 File comments: 281 Uploads: 5	If anyone's like me and basically wants EH and EH_Vitals hidden when they log in, and they have config.Redshift.hideVitals == true in the main EH config file, there's a very simple change you can make to EH_Vitals to actually make it obey that option. Change core.lua line #378 from Code: frame:Show() to Code: if not EventHorizon.config.Redshift.hideVitals or EventHorizon.mainframe:IsShown() then frame:Show() end

Last, but not least (the reason I tried this addon), is it possible to show shadow weaving stacks as combo points?

Let's face it - I spent nearly as much time working on EventHorizon, Axis, and their various modules as I do at work. Your continued support and donations keep them all alive and kicking.
