EventHorizon Continued (Beta release)  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v1.9.3
by: Brusalk [More]

This is NOT a working version of EventHorizon for MoP! Please check out the link below for the working live version!!!
-Brusalk (Bronzebeard-US)

EventHorizon Continued

Beta notes:
v1.9.3: Mmm, ticks. And math. And updates.
* Core: Tick detection has been completely rewritten and is nearly 100% accurate. I'll spare the details here, check beta comments for how it all works.
* Core: Added a NewSpell flag, 'smallCooldown', indended to improve visibility of certain auras without removing their cooldowns. See the Priest config (Devouring Plague bar) for usage.
* Core: Redshift may now be enabled via slash command when disabled via config.lua. (see note)
* Core: Single spell stack numbers (or spells that show a single stack for no reason) are no longer displayed.
* Core: Recast lines were using some incorrect info in certain conditions.
* Core: Buffs cast by other players should no longer cause EH to panic.
* Core: Various module API refinements, little fixes across the board, and probably a lot of stuff I haven't mentioned in the changelog so far.
* Config: Added a new entry for use with the tick-related changes, nonAffectingHaste = {spellID,multiplier} or {{spellID,multiplier},{spellID,multiplier},...}.
- Warlocks seem to be the only ones needing this at present. If you find other spells affecting cast haste but not tick haste, and your ticks are improperly calculated because of it, by all means let me know.
* Config: Added a new entry to the layout section for the smallCooldown NewSpell flag.
* Druid: Removed Omen of Clarity across all specs. Revive used as haste comparison.
- Feral/Cat: Bars reorganized to better reflect priorities.
- Feral/Bear: Added Swipe CD to Pulverize. Enrage removed (commented out if you prefer seeing it).
- Balance: Shooting Stars added to Starsurge.
- Resto: Tweaks a'la malsudon.
+ Moved Swiftmend cooldown to the Rejuvenation bar.
+ Added Nature's Swiftness cooldown to the casted heals bar.
+ Added Tree of Life.
* Mage: Conjure Refreshment used as haste comparison.
* Hunter: Steady/Cobra bar now tracks Improved Steady Shot (with recast segment).
- BM: Usability tweaks.
+ Frenzy bar now tracks Focus Fire cooldown, Focus Fire buff is no longer tracked (same CD as buff time).
+ Killing Streak is now shown on Kill Command as originally intended.
- Marks: Aimed Shot cast and Master Marksman buffs moved to Chimaera Shot bar.
* Paladin: Redemption used as haste comparison.
* Priest: Resurrection used as haste comparison.
- All specs: Evangelism and Archangel folded into a single bar.
- Shadow: Please spend some time on the target dummy to get used to the changes. Most will find the layout more intuitive than it has been in recent releases.
+ Moved Shadowfiend CD to the Devouring Plague bar. Uses the new smallCooldown flag to improve usability.
+ Filler separated into two bars. Cast filler tracks Mind Melt buff, channel filler tracks Shadow Orbs.
+ Moved Shadow Word: Death CD to the channel filler bar.
* Shaman: Ancestral Spirit used as haste comparison.
* Warlock: Create Healthstone used as haste comparison. Eradication defined as not affecting DoT haste.

Redshift note: You may need to repeat the command a couple of times due to an elusive little glitch, but the settings stick between login/reloadui without further issues.
Redshift remembers your last enableRedshift setting from config.lua. If that's changed, Redshift will default to whatever the new setting is.

v1.9.2: Switched to Git, revision numbers go byebye.
* Core: Added a 'recast' NewSpell flag. 'recast = true,' (or really anything but nil/false) will force the recast segment to show for any aura on the bar.
* Core: Recast lines will try to use the most recent tracked spellcast. (see note)
* Probably some more fixes and changes here and there, but not many. Been focusing on getting things set up with the new repository.

Note: Let's say a bar is tracking a proc and two spells with differing cast times, with the recast flag on. The following situation may happen:
1 - Begin a 1.5 second cast (which procs the aura)
2 - Cast completes and spell's in the air. Begin a 3 second cast (which doesn't proc the aura)
3 - The procced aura appears with a 3 second recast segment, which probably isn't what you wanted to see.
I'll be adding a way to set which casts affect the recast duration in a later release, probably in v1.9.2. For now I don't believe it'll be a huge issue to leave it as is.

v1.9 r378: Eep again.
* Core: Aura info is no longer indexed by spellID. EH now behaves much better in a raid environment.

v1.9 r377: Eep.
* Core: Fixed error spam when mouseover units are being actively tracked.
* Core: Increased the period between mouseover aura checks from ~100ms to ~150ms.

v1.9 r376: Hopefully that's the last time I'll have to fix Redshift.
* Core: Made some huge changes to how aura information is collected and stored. (see note)
* Core: Redshift now has (almost) complete control over frame visibility when enabled.
* Core: Indicators now use the API methods introduced in 4.0.1 to set their drawing order, instead of relying on framelevel hacks. Less CPU usage, more stable ordering.
* Core: Cooldowns are now prioritized over [de]buffs in terms of drawing order.

Note: I haven't had the opportunity to test every variation, but it seems stable enough. Let me know of any issues.

v1.9 r370: Trinket bars will be disabled by default from this release onward.
* Core: Cast-time debuffs no longer leave a bar segment behind when dispelled or the target dies.
* Core: itemID bars now use the correct GetSpellCooldown syntax.
* Core: Fixed some load order issues that were preventing Redshift from doing its thing at login.
* Core: Added a few API triggers for module usage, fixed some event assignments, and cleaned up a few bits of code.
* Config: Trinket bars are now disabled by default. Look for "config.showTrinketBars" in config.lua if you prefer to see them.
* Class Config: Added an 'icon' NewSpell flag - Sets a static icon for the bar. Can use a spellID, itemID, or texture path. Not usable with equipment slot bars.
* Paladin: Holy Shield has been fixed and folded into the CS/HotR bar, Sacred Duty added to Prot Judgement.
* Warlock: Corruption bar now uses only the Corruption icon. Chaos Bolt's cast is no longer missing from the Destro filler bar.

v1.9 r362: SavedVariable wipe for people affected by r335 quirks. The new class config system has been delayed for now.
* Core: Talent/glyph checks are now throttled and delayed using the same method as gear checks.
* Core: The recast bar segment should no longer glitch out when recasting or refreshing dots.
* Core: The hideIcons option was broken in a namespace cleanup a while back. This has been corrected.
* Core: Most bar components and some portions of the EventHorizon window may now have their blending mode adjusted. (see note)
* Config: Added config.blendModes to config.lua. See the notes there for usage. (note again)
* Config: The default channel tick color has been changed from class color to castbar color.
* Class Config: Removed 3.3.5 compatibility code.
* DK: Fixed up a couple entries. Trying a new spellID for Unholy Blight, the old one apparently wasn't working (haven't had a chance to check myself).
* Priest/Healer: Greater Heal is now shown on the casted-heals bar.
* Priest/Shadow: Added Shadowfiend CD.
* Rogue: Fixed up an entry or two.
* Warlock: Moved Immolation Aura to the bottom of the list. Corruption now shows for all specs.

Note: Try setting some blend modes to "ADD" if you're curious. This can be very useful for some UIs, and does allow for more visible bars depending on your settings, monitor, and perception of color.
Changelog may be incomplete for this release.

v1.9 r335: TOC fix. My packaging script apparently doesn't like changes. Global savedvariables are actually used now, like they were supposed to be forever ago...
r335-2: Corrected some copypasta, sorry about that.

v1.9 r334:
* Core: Killed off some debug code that snuck into r333.

v1.9 r333: Note - SavedVariables wipe, sorry for any inconvenience. Untested in beta, haven't had an opportunity.
* Core: Trinkets and other gear checks now use savedvariables to avoid constant GetItemInfo calls and at least somewhat remedy the related Beta/PTR issues.
* API: Modules are now loaded before checking talents, allowing modules to use EH's talent checks instead of their own.

Note: Beta/PTR users may notice missing trinkets when logging in for the first time. Entering combat, using a spell/skill with a cooldown, or swapping trinkets should fix that.

v1.9 r329:
* Core: Fixed stance/form detection.
* Priest (Beta/PTR): Filler bar now tracks Shadow Orbs instead of Mind Spike stacks.

v1.9 r327: Warlock love inc.
* Core: Bypassed a check in UPDATE_SHAPESHIFT_FORM when playing a Warlock. The Immolation Aura bar now appears as intended.
* Warlock (Beta/PTR): Removed Curse bar.
- Demonology: Immolation Aura now appears as intended when in metamorphosis. Bar order has been adjusted.
* Warlock (Live): Adjusted Demonology bar order to closer reflect Beta bars. New filler bar, showing Molten Core procs instead of ISB.

v1.9 r322: SVN messed up EventHorizon.lua in r321, sorry about that.

v1.9 r321: Bunch of workarounds because Blizzard hates me.
* Core: Bars with both channeled spells and auras (Warlock, Priest, Mage) will no longer lose their channel ticks on aura changes.
* Core: Logging in, reloading your UI, or changing gear sets will no longer trigger multiple layout checks at once. Instead, a 2-second delay is used with a single mass update at the end. (note 1)
* Core: Gear checks have been revamped a bit to reduce errors, oddities, and CPU usage.
* Core: Blank trinket bars at login: Added an extra post-load check for trinket bars, using the glyph redetection workaround. (note 2)
* Core: Leveling up will now trigger a layout check.
* Core: Added a couple new slash commands: "/ehz lock" (toggles the drag-handle), and "/ehz status" (shows a list of modules and shown bars). "/ehz help" has been reformatted a bit. (note 3)
* Config: A new color and layout has been added for channeled ticks.
* Config: Changed the bar layouts a bit. Ticks are a little shorter, bars a little taller.
* Mage (Beta/PTR): Corrected Living Bomb's DoT interval.

Notes:
1) This effectively cuts the number of talent checks and layout updates in half. Yay efficiency.
2) The item cache is pretty screwy. Nothing but the itemID is available at login during the loading process. ReloadUI or logging out and back in fixes it.
+ Using the dissapearing-glyph workaround seems to work decently for now. I'll see about a better solution if people still have blank trinket bars.
3) Using "/ehz lock" when the frame would not normally have a handle does nothing, and will tell you that.
4) I'm still looking for inaccuracies and missing procs in the class config. Let me know if you feel like your bars are missing something that should be there.


v1.9 r312: Maintenance release with Cataclysm and PTR compatibility while I break things for Axis. I had this release planned long ago, sorry for the delay.
* NOTE: This release is compatible with live realms, PTRs, and the Cataclysm beta. PTR and Beta players will notice new bar layouts.
* Class Config: Added two new flags to NewSpell:
- requiredTree = <tree> or {tree, tree, ...} - Adds a dominant talent tree requirement to the bar. This follows the order on your talent sheet (ie, Arms Warrior = 1, Shadow Priest = 3)
- requiredLevel = <level> - Adds a level requirement to the bar.
* Core: Internal cooldowns have been adjusted to behave a bit better.
* Core: Made some huge changes to EH's internal table structure. (/dump EventHorizon.vars if you're interested)
* Core: config.past and config.future have been sanitized and will no accept both positive and negative numbers with no ill effect.
* Config: The default cooldown color has changed to a mute blue/teal and made a touch more opaque. (0.6, 0.8, 1, 0.3)
* Config: The default cast color has also been changed slightly and made a little less opaque. (0, 1, 0.2, 0.25)

WotLK class config:
* Priest: Vampiric Touch is down to 5 expected ticks. t9 is no longer default. Change it to 7 if you use it.
* Shaman: The Ele bars did feel funky how they were. Sorry about that.
- Elemental: Lava Burst is back on its own bar. Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning are shared below it.

Notes: This is beta. It's largely untested and things will probably break. I'll update as often as I can.
* GetItemCooldown seems pretty well screwed, let me know if you get errors related to it and which trinkets you're using if you run into problems.
* Several Cataclysm/PTR configs are completely untested.

That's another little glitch caused by me moving things around. I'll have a fix out in a sec.

Edit: Done, snag r210 and you shouldn't see the error anymore.
haha yes, my mistake.

yay, everything seems to be working now.. except the trinket icon and bars are positioned further down than intended. i dont know why i keep finding all these little bugs, but i appreciate your prompt updates. thank you very much =D

edit: in shadow form all spells were positioned correctly except for the trinkets. out of shadowform all of the healing spells are position lowered significantly.

and when i mean 'position lowered' it seems to be about 4 bar spaces down from where they should be.

Redshift starts out disabled. Look in config.lua, the option (config.enableRedshift) is near the top. Since you haven't specified whether or not you changed the option, I'm going to assume you haven't.

Also, make sure you don't have EventHorizon_Redshift in your addons directory. The separate Redshift addon and the built-in version probably butt heads.

Edit: Also, update to r196. r190 has a savedvariables error.

However, now I get this error on load up with r196, r202, and r208:

Little note on the betas: I've noticed some randomness with Redshift when enabled via config.lua on a fresh set of savedvariables. I'll be working out a fix for this next chance I get, but for now, if you can't get EH to show, just type '/ehz redshift' a couple times. Once it's toggled off and back on it seems to work fine from that point on.

I'll probably just remove the slash support from the modules, as it's not useful and seems to be breaking things.

New version awaiting approval now.

r208 fixes a little glitch resulting in an inaccurate 'now' indicator when using the staticheight option.

This version also adds a new feature that changes the bar icons according to the currently shown buff or debuff, when using a spell that does not have a cast time or is based on an equipment slot.

For example, if you're playing a Warlock and cast Curse of Doom, the Curse bar will swap its icon over to CoD until another curse is cast. If playing a Feral Druid, Mangle's icon may swap to Trauma with a Warrior around.

There is no config switch for this, though I doubt one is needed. It's kinda handy, if you ask me. I may add a toggle in the spell details eventually, but it's a low priority.

Changes:
Code:
r208:
* The icon changes last release were screwing with the 'now' line when using the staticheight option. Fixed.
* New feature! Bar icons will now change according to the buff or debuff currently shown. (see note)

Note: To prevent confusion, this is only done if the bar does not track a cast time or equipment slot. A later release may limit this to bars tracking multiple auras, but for now I've erred on the side of efficiency.

Gylindor: Axis is really just EH 2.0. Enough changes are planned for the version that it merits a name change. =P

Sinera: Turn on Lua errors (Escape menu -> Options -> Help) and log out and back in. If you don't get an error, try typing /ehz redshift. If you do, post it here and I'll get it fixed.

EH disappears on my warlock

Ahoi,

EH is working perfectly on my shadow priest and my DK, but the window is not visible when playing with my warlock. I have the whole suite enabled for all chars. (Seems a little bit stupid, I know, but what would you do when you do not know where to take a look at?

I also deleted all Saved Variables appearances of EH, no avail.

Any ideas? Some hint would be great.

(The only and possible way to get high DPS is Event Horizon or NugRunnig. I prefer the first.)

Thanks in advance.

r202 is awaiting approval as I type this.

This release features a massive improvement to the staticheight option and generally improves a lot of things.

This one's pretty close to release quality. As always, let me know if anything goes wrong.
Code:
Beta notes:
r202:
* The staticheight option will now resize spell icons as well. If an icon's dimensions are uneven, the larger of its height or width will always be fully visible while the rest is cropped.
* Bars and their icons are anchored much differently. (see note)
* Bar creation is more efficient.
* Prepped and streamlined a couple functions for a huge TBA feature.
* Removed config.iconborder. There was no sane way to get it to play nice anymore.

Note: This was done to make my job easier, but it should also fix any problems people were having with spells all displaying on a single line.

Release notes:
v1.9: The cake is a lie. Oh, and this doesn't even hold a candle to Axis.
- NOTE: PLEASE REMOVE EventHorizon_Redshift and EventHorizon_Lines from your AddOns directory. They are no longer needed.
* Core: Hopefully finally resolved those crash problems. Please let me know what you experience with this release if EH has been crashing your game at login.
* Core: Integrated EH_Redshift and EH_Lines. No more trying not to break 4 addons at once. (notes 1 and 2)
* Lots of optimization and streamlining. There should be an all-around performance increase with v1.9 over previous versions.
* Added a workaround for Lua errors caused by a bar trying to create itself without an associated type. Still not sure what causes it.
* Config: config.lua has been redocumented. Should be a lot easier to read now.
* Config: Trinkets should actually be shown by default now. Pretty sure I lied in the v1.8 notes, sorry.
* Config: Removed config.iconborder (no difference if you were using the defaults before).
* Config: NEW OPTION! config.staticheight (disabled by default) will have EH resize the bars instead of the frame. Credit to Brusalk for the idea. (notes 3 and 4)

(1): Redshift and Lines are DISABLED by default. They can be turned on in config.lua, via the options config.enableRedshift and config.Lines.
(2): You can use the slash commands (/eventhorizon or /ehz) to disable Redshift and Lines per character if they are enabled in config.lua, as well.
(3): For example, 'config.staticheight = 150' will make EH 150 pixels tall. With 5 shown bars, each bar will be 30 pixels tall. Spacing is still used in this mode and will act the same as it does otherwise.
(4): Please be aware that this is an 'all or nothing' option. It's made for people with a specific area to place EH who do not want the frame to ever be resized.

That's the default behavior.

Redshift starts out disabled. Look in config.lua, the option (config.enableRedshift) is near the top. Since you haven't specified whether or not you changed the option, I'm going to assume you haven't.

Also, make sure you don't have EventHorizon_Redshift in your addons directory. The separate Redshift addon and the built-in version probably butt heads.

Edit: Also, update to r196. r190 has a savedvariables error.

I just tried r190 out and ehz is still showing out of combat without a hostile target. The only thing that I change when I install the addon is the order of VT to be first. So it'd be nice to know if others are experiencing this as well.

Re: Bars disappearing

Yeah, it's a Blizzard issue. It happens quite often with Rend and Serpent Sting as well, from various reports and personal experience.

Basically what happens is that (usually in a raid environment, and I've only personally noticed it in ICC) some debuffs get 'lost' to the API and won't reappear for a while or a few recasts. If you look at the target's debuffs, most other addons and the Blizzard unitframes won't see them either. There's no method to the madness, it just kinda happens.

The ticks still show because when a bar is cleared some of the data still remains. The tick interval/recalculation functions don't care about whether or not a bar is present, just that ticks are happening, so they use that 'old' data to show what was left when the bar poofed.

I'd love to use that as a workaround for the issue, and have a pretty good idea of how to pull it off, but there's no way to tell if anything I do will have an effect. I'll make a point of trying out some things in the next couple beta releases.

Bars disappearing

Not sure if this has been mentioned, I'm sure it has but sometimes while I'm in a fight VT or DP bars will disappear. Ticks will still show, however sometimes they even show when the DoT has fallen off already. I've seen this happen across several versions of the addon already and I dont think there is anyway to reproduce it. Seems to just happen randomly, but very rarely.

New version waiting approval.

Changelog:
Code:
r190:
* Equipment changes and such should no longer show the frame when it's hidden by Redshift. (Not even sure if this was an issue, but it should help)
* Added a default savedvar value for Vitals. Shouldn't affect anything.

Skyflyer: Good to hear.

Vorsim: Thanks for the pasties. You're missing a comma on the cooldown line of FFF (line 45), which is causing the rest of the file to error out since it doesn't know when that table entry is supposed to end.

Make sure you turn on Lua error reporting in WoW's option menu (it's under the help section), it'll tell you when something like that happens. I recommend using an error handler addon such as TekErr or Bugsack to get them out of the middle of the screen.

Also, just an FYI, in the main EventHorizon myconfig you only need the options you've made changes to. Here's mine for an example, you'll notice that there's far less in there than normal.

Code:
local useconfig = true
if useconfig then
local config = EventHorizon.config

config.past = -1
config.future = 12
config.width = 150
config.height = 14
config.spacing = 0
config.scale = 1
config.anchor = {"TOP",UIParent,"CENTER",0,-195}
config.iconborder = false
config.gcdStyle = 'line'
--config.bartexture = "Interface\\Addons\\EventHorizon\\Smooth"
config.bartexture = "Interface\\Addons\\SharedMedia\\MyMedia files\\statusbar\\HalI"
config.barbgcolor = {1,1,1,0}
config.bg = "Interface\\ChatFrame\\ChatFrameBackground"
config.border = "Interface\\AddOns\\SharedMedia\\MyMedia files\\border\\IshBorder"
config.inset = {top = 2, bottom = 2, left = 2, right = 2}
config.padding = 3
config.edgesize = 6

config.showTrinketBars = true

local c = EventHorizon.colors
c.sent = {true,1,.5}
c.tick = {true,1,1}
c.casting = {0,1,0,0.3}
c.cooldown = {1,1,1,0.3}
c.debuffmine = {true,1,0.3}
c.debuff = {true,0.5,0.3}
c.playerbuff = {true,1,0.3}
c.default = {1,1,1,1}
c.bgcolor = {0,0,0,0.4}
c.bordercolor = {true,0.5,0.7}
c.nowLine = {true,1,0.5}
c.gcdColor = {true,0.5,0.5}

-- Priest color burning the lazy way.
local _,class = UnitClass('player')
if class == 'PRIEST' then
	for i,v in pairs(c) do
		if v[1] == true then
			v[2] = 0.7
		end
	end
elseif class == 'ROGUE' then
	config.lines = {2.01}
end
config.linesColor = {1,1,1,0.2}

end
This works because myconfig.lua is loaded after config.lua - The options are already there, all that's needed is a little tweaking. The class myconfigs still need to be complete due to how that portion of the addon works, though.
