DrainSoulTimer

Version: 2.4

by: Sloth [More]

Nothing special, just gives a warning and/or plays a sound when drain soul ticks and when the target's health is in execute range.
Should work with any client, the language is only german and english though (but you're welcome to translate it to any other language )

Slashcommands:

/dst
shows the config.

- converted the wav files to ogg vorbis
- replaced "this" with "self"
- updated the toc

Version 2.3
====================
- changed VARIABLES_LOADED to ADDON_LOADED (thank you very much bahuur!)

Version 2.2
====================
- fixed a bug where the savedvariables were overwritten with the defaults (or at least i hope so)
- changed the toc to interface 3.3

Version 2.1
====================
- added the config to the interface options addons panel
- changed the code to use spellIDs instead of spellnames

Version 2.0
====================

- removed the old slashcommands
- changed DS Tick sound

Version 1.2

And after you've unzipped the the addon you need to rename the folder from "ballagarba-prDrainSoulTimer-b025975" (or something like that) to just "prDrainSoulTimer".

tried that, it won't show up as an addon for me

Hmm, are you sure? Just downloaded it myself and it works fine. Make sure you're not only looking under "p" when you're searching the addon list. Because i've color coded the "pr" in the name so it should be further down the list. And the folder name has to be the same as the .toc file name.

And there's no in-game config either. Only a couple of variables in the lua file.

Any way to fix this?

It looks like a deprecated event is being used to trigger the variable check on addon load. It is sometimes triggering before the variables are actually loaded and is re-initializing the settings to the defaults.

Change "VARIABLES_LOADED" to "ADDON_LOADED" in DrainSoulTimer.xml. My settings have been consistently saved between sessions after this fix.

I just discovered on wowinterface here that there was a new version all this time! Curse has version 2.1 and states the addon hasnt been updated for 11 months lol.

Also PlaySoundFile() is now linked to the ingame sound effects cvar, so you won't hear anything if you disabled ingame sounds. Kinda sucks for me since I had the mastervolume up to 100% and sound effects at 0% to avoid all that noise spam in combats :/ I'll release an update as soon as I'm back at home

I've tried renaming the folder to only DrainSoulTimer, keeping it as it was (DrainSoulTimer_2.4), erasing all old DrainSoulTimer related stuff from my WTF folders from all chars, anything, it just don' show up on my login screen. Am I doing anything idiotic and not realizing? Edit: Ok, I compared this w/ the last addon version, all files look like this on this one DrainSoulTimer/changelog.txt DrainSoulTimer/DrainSoultimer.... DrainSoulTimer/DrainSoultimer.xml etc etc I erased all the "DrainSoulTimer/" from the filenames and created a Sound folder as well (just like in the older versions) Now it's working. Sometimes it unchecks the preferences, but I'd say I can live with it. Last edited by scarydj : 10-16-10 at 12:10 AM.

yoyo

so you reckon just with the sounds enabled but nothing else in rest ( like all that annoying combat sounds etc etc ) the addon wont make a sound when it ticks ? cause looking for the text kinda sucks

thanks for the great work

o/

ps: with all those annoying ingame sounds activated ( absolutely all of them ) i hear no tick sounds whatsoever

Sayre A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 4 Uploads: 0	Addon File Architecture Bugged The DrainSoulTimer addon works, but the files need to be renamed (as of the current date, addon last updated 10/15/10). This is easy to do: Rename the master folder from DrainSoulTimer_2 to DrainSoulTimer Go into the master folder and make a subfolder called Sounds. Change DrainSoulTimer\Sounds\tick.ogg to tick.ogg and place it in the Sounds subfolder. Change DrainSoulTimer\Sounds\quaddamage.ogg to quaddamage.ogg and place it in the Sounds subfolder. Delete the DrainSoulTimer\ from the names of all the remaining files leaving them as changelog.txt, DrainSoulTimer.lua, DrainSoulTimer.toc, DrainSoulTimer.xml, DrainSoulTimerOptions.xml, and localization.lua
