flagRSP BC  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 0.6.0
by: Adriathys [More]

flagRSP BC is the original flagRSP AddOn updated and enhanced for the World of Warcraft 2.0 patch.

flagRSP BC is an AddOn that allows you to set a title, first name, and last name as well as setting a character status and a roleplaying flag. Other users of this AddOn or a compatible one, flagRSP2, ImmersionRP, or MyRolePlay, will be able to see these flags and you will be able to see theirs. This is mainly useful for RP and RP-PVP servers, but there's nothing preventing you from using this on servers of other types. Feel free to report any bugs or request features either here or on my portal.

If you do use this AddOn, do not use it with flagRSP2, ImmersionRP, or MyRolePlay as they will conflict.

flagRSP BC 0.6.0 Changes
Changes
- Numerous changes to reduce memory used.
- Tooltip code has been rewritten for faster performance.
- Works better, honest.

Bug Fixes
- Players who have never used flagRSP will now be able to have their data initialize correctly.
- No more error messages about tainting the default UI.

Code:
/script Friendlist.ConvertToPerCharacterFriendlist()
otherwise try:
Code:
/script Friendlist.InitializeData()
If that doesn't work, let me know and I'll go from there. As for descriptions not showing up, it's most likely caused by flagRSP hanging on that error.

Where do I install this script, in the friends.lua file?

Flag RSP issues

Hi,

Just loaded this up as my first ever mod to wow.. like the idea of it, but it seems not to work for me, wonder if you can help/suggest anything I could try...

It seems to fill my message space up with warnings/failures etc, which is too annoying so I've already turned it off again after half an hour. Also, it seemed to interrupt my targeting by not showing the name of the chosen mob properly (I could still shoot them but their 'tag' seemed broken/missing from the top of the screen)

This is a rough example of the kind of failure messages I'm getting:

ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED fired
FlagRSP attempted to call TargetFrame: Hide () when it was protected
Call stack was:[C]: in funtion 'hide'
Interface\Frame XML\Target Frame.lua:60: in function 'TargetFrame_Update'
Interface\Frame XML\Target Frame.lua:98: in function 'TargetFrame_OnEvent'
[String "*:On Event"]:1 in function <[string"*:On Event"]:1>

I'm not techie-minded so any simple advice would be really appreciated

thanks

Sorry for not responding sooner, there seems to be a couple of bugs with people who have never used flagRSP before. I'll try and get a minor release out to fix them.

Where do I install this script, in the friends.lua file?
You just type it into your chat window when you're logged in to the game.

I'm able to access the main setup screen, which includes tabs for friendslist, character description, FlagRSP settings, etc. When I attempt to add friends to the RSP Friendslist, I click "Add" and nothing happens. No windows close, no friends are added, no error message. Also, no tooltip appears showing the description, surname, or roleplaying flags I have entered when I select myself. It appears to have successfully joined me into the "xtensiontooltip2" channel when I enter the command /chatwho.
Is this the first version of flagRSP that you are using or have you upgraded from a previous version?

It seems to fill my message space up with warnings/failures etc, which is too annoying so I've already turned it off again after half an hour. Also, it seemed to interrupt my targeting by not showing the name of the chosen mob properly (I could still shoot them but their 'tag' seemed broken/missing from the top of the screen)
Is there anything that needs to be done to reproduce this problem or does it always happen whenever you're in combat?

From reading here, I was able to clear up the other errors by doing your suggested initialize script, and everything works like a charm. There is only one error (that I'm aware of) that I still get. I assume I need to insert an integer of some sort into the FlagPurgeInterval value, and I have no idea how to do this offhand. If that's what I need to do, is there a slash command for doing so? Thanks for a great addon, even if there are occasional unexpected errors.
This is a bug I should have caught earlier, but I didn't. To fix it, just type into the chat window
Code:
/script FlagRSPSettings["FlagPurgeInterval"] = 1209600

I installed XPerl and had the same problem. What's happening is that XPerl doesn't just hide the normal Blizzard TargetFrame, instead it places it outside the viewable region and what flagRSP does is try to anchor the button to the Blizzard TargetFrame, causing the poor bubble to be hidden off screen.

However, typing

Code:

/script FlagRSPSettings[FlagRSP.rName][FlagRSP.pName].InfoBoxButtonX = 500; FlagRSPSettings[FlagRSP.rName][FlagRSP.pName].InfoBoxButtonY = 600



put the button in a visible place on my screen, the values you need to use may differ. Once you can see the button, you can just right click and drag it into place. I'll have a more elegant way of doing this in the next update, but this should, hopefully, work. If it doesn't, let me know and I'll see what else I can do.
In regards to this, I fired up Perl Classic and am having the same issue, I used the script posted but sadly... it seemed to only work once. With all of my other characters the description popup bubble is lost in limbo. I deleted FlagRSP from my folder a few times, restarted WoW, disabled all other potential interfering addons and still the problem persists.

Returning to the character the script command worked on initially, the bubble remains in the same place that I moved it to. It's as if the script just isn't being acknowledged anymore and I have no idea what to do about it. XD
Otherwise, thanks a ton for bringing this to BC.

If you've upgraded to the latest version, the reason the script command doesn't work is because I've changed the way settings are stored. To get it to work for the new version, in your chat window type
Code:
/script FlagRSPData.InfoBoxButtonX = 500; FlagRSPData.InfoBoxButtonY = 600

Hi!

Do you have a solution for the following problem? Have tried what you wrote in previous posts but does not help.

Interface\Addons\flagRSP\Friendlist.lua:570:
attempt to index global 'FriendlistData' (a nil value)

It worked as I installed it as the first mod, then I installed others and got this error. But I deinstalled most of them and nothing should affect friendlist.
Installing the friendlist again from the modul does not help too.

Edit: Now it's working, it just failed to initialize the friendlist... altho I'm getting some strange World of Warcraft crashes, which I'm trying to pin-point, my guess would be that it's connected to usage of this mod.. altho it might be something else, I don't have troubles with other characters than those I've used flagRSP BC with so.. I'm yet to find an answer as of why this happens.

Hmm... it's probably just me, but for some reason, flagRSP BC dislikes adding a new friend for me.

Even typing /fl add <friend-name> <friend-surname> results in failure, actually, I can't even push enter while typing this..

Adding a friend through the GUI fails as well, I push the add button, with no result... Quite annoying, I'm going to do more extensive testing tomorrow, if you need more info, just reply here and I'll try to supply whatever you might ask of me.

So, I've just installed. Right off the bat, I've noticed a number of distressing issues.

(a) When I target myself, I can't view my description. With the original add-on, I was able to actually see my description without opening up the editor. I assume I'm experiencing a bug in this?

(b) A few moments ago, when I hovered over a member of the other faction, their mouse-over tooltip was completely empty to me. I was unable to even make out their character name.

(c) The /fl import command seems to do absolutely nothing.



I can open the RSP edit window and the friendlist window. but those three issues are driving me nuts. Any potential for assistance would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: I notice the same issue as the individual below. I can't even enter friends through the GUI.

I love this mod. It's the #1 RP mod I use for several of its features, especially the colored level display.

I recently installed the new version because I couldn't get the description button to show on whatever version I had before (released in February, I think) and I'm having a few issues:

Friendslist isn't working at all for me. I can't add anyone, and it throws up all kinds of errors both on initialization and every time I open the RSP window.

For some reason, After I got everything entered again (cleared out all of my old settings), player tooltips disappeared entirely. It is just blank and randomly throws up errors about the Friendslist.

Also, I can no longer toggle the player description with the button or close it with the X that's on there. It's always up when I have them targetted, always down when I don't. More of an annoyance than anything else.

If I could get this fixed, I would absolutely love to keep using this mod.

I should include, I am using X-Perl. Not sure if this is a factor, but I don't think it is. It worked fine for one of my characters for quite some time before it decided to quit. This was right after I installed Lore, if that makes a difference.

Edit: I confirmed that my issues were caused by XPerl and their non-conventional use of the frame names. Instead of TargetFrame, they use XPerl_Target. A couple of quick edits on the version I had working for me (0.5.8) and everything is working great. If the author would like, I can post what was done for the benefit of others.

not sure if any bugfixes are still done, but hope so.

flagRSP itself works for me, including the friendlist, there is just one little problem (bug) when using the "flagRSP style" tooltips i don't get any info on "Roleplay status", as i already mentioned before, well tested it out abit more, teh missing lines in teh tooltip are linked to teh "Hide unknown player" option, as when i uncheck this one i can see all tags, if i check it, i can see teh flags only on "known" players. (hope this can help) contrary to what i said at first, it is not linked to teh the tooltip mode, but the "Hide names" option.

somethign else that i noticed, if i have some old flagRSP data (0.5.6) present, and then start with the latest, it works fine (friendlist and all work), but i treid it on the PTR, and this was a clean start for flagRSP, this leaves me with the same problem as others have, that the friendlist is not working as intended (can't add players to it)

somethign else, when playing in the battleground (or arena) flagrsp throws up erros whenever mousing over players from others servers (but only if "hide names" is checked)

Got some Probs :-/

Hey

Thanks for this AddOn, it sounds very good for my new Char on a RP-Server
But, it sounds only good, cause i cant test it realy;

There was no ReadMe so I started on my own.
When I start the AddOn with a lot of other AddOns all seems to be ok.
BUT i cant add someone to my freindlist.

So i started the AddOn without any other AddOns and there came two errors:

Interface\Addons\flagRSP\Friendlist.lua:1259:
attempt to index global 'FriendData' (a nil value)

Interface\Addons\flagRSP\Friendlist.lua:849:
attempt to index global 'FriendData' (a nil value)

And i cant add friends also...

So maybe what can I do?

mfG Qanti

EDIT: Now there comes the same Error like at my pre-writer and the old ones are there still too... ;/

I'm getting the same error everytime I hover the cursoer over ANYTHING. I don't know why or how. I've been using FlagRSP for over a year now, this just kind of...HAPPENED one day and I can't find a work around.

Just downloaded and installed and I noticed a funny glitch. WHen I click on someone and go to read their description, the description text vanishes and the window shrinks down to show their name, title, etc. and nothing else. Not sure if this is because of soemthing on their end or mine. Any ideas?
