Bad News
Hey there,
as i allready posted on WoWAce Forums my Gaming PC is Out of Order, so i can't continue work on this addon. I know that there are still some ugly Bugs. If someone wants to continue work on CooldownButtons feel free to contact me on WoWAceForums or per mail (netrox _AT_ sourceway [dot] eu).

Features:
*Monitor Spell and Item Cooldowns as Buttons (see screenshots)
-- Items & Spells in 1 Bar or splited; and also with own positions per cooldown

* Hide cooldowns longer than X seconds

* Supports cyCircled AND ButtonFacade for button skinning
-- if both are installed it will use ButtonFacade.

* easy to use configuration UI (use /cdb or /cooldownbuttons to open)

NOTE:
if you miss your translation you could send me the translation!

also if you see errors in the current translation please report it.
AND please Report Bugs

JFDLT10 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Moving duration Hello everyone. I know this is a ridiculous question, but here it goes anyway. I was able to configure the display of CD's and place them where I like, etc. However, there's this timed bar that actually counts down the time remaining before the ability can be used. I've poured through the options, and cannot for the life of me find the one that allows me to modify/move it around. It's the one only displayed once an ability goes on cooldown, and is like a count down meter. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Most cooldown addons add 1sec to their timers so that it ends after the "1" instead of the "0".

Do you know how to do that with CooldownButtons?

In other words, it goes like this:

Three... Two... One... Zero... Cooldown Ready.

When it should go:

Three... Two... One... Cooldown Ready.

It may sound finnicky, but this is the best cooldown addon I can find and it just feels odd waiting an extra second for every cooldown.

Mingo A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 5 Uploads: 0	I've just changed pets and I now have Charge and Pin abilities. Neither of these abilities are showing a cooldown button. I've reset settings, deleted any saved variables and re-installed but still no joy. I can see both Cower and Intervene cooldowns which I couldn't before I reinstalled, but still no Charge or Pin. I'm pretty sure I've seen Charge before on a previous pet some time back, but it's been a while since using a pet with that ability so I couldn't say for sure. Any ideas?

Mingo A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 5 Uploads: 0	First I'd like to thank you for this sweet piece of kit! I'm loving it, but would like to offer a couple of suggestions if I may. 1) What's the possibility of adding an option to "group" certain cooldows together and have them grow from a specific spot just like the primary group so that we don't have to manually position those cooldows that we don't want within the main window? My main is a hunter and I'd love to be able to have all my melee CD's etc grow from different positions. 2) Also, an options to implement having the buttons remain static in the same order that they appear? The constant switching dependant upon timers can sometimes be confusing, especially when this happens just as a CD finishes and it's button disappears. Other than that, I echo the comments of others to enable showing/hiding of all saved buttons at once and the possibility of auto-populating all at once for config purposes. No worries if any of this is just too difficult to implement, I admit to having little knowledge of what is and isn't possible. Cheers. Last edited by Mingo : 02-03-2009 at 02:31 PM.

At the beginning of Spell_Cooldowns.lua add the following line (where all the lines start with local just insert this one somewhere)

Code:

local _, playerclass = UnitClass("player")

And replace the duration check with

Code:

-- Some dirty fixes for deathknight cooldowns local mintime = 3 if(playerclass == "DEATHKNIGHT") then mintime = 10 -- to show mindfreeze cd set mintime to 9 since mindfreeze has a cooldown of 10 seconds if (GetSpellName(spellIndex, BOOKTYPE_SPELL) == "Mind Freeze") then mintime = 9 end end if enable == 1 and start > 0 and duration > mintime then

I haven't tested this but it should work perfectly.

YES. That worked!

sun A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 106 Uploads: 1	3.0.8 i tried this addon again with 3.0.8 hoping that the DK rune cooldown would be fixed but it's not... on a side note the omnicc display cooldown is fixed (without the addon getting updated) AND MSBT cooldown works fine for DK, so i think someone should look at how MSBT did it and implement the same logic for this addon.

Yeah whell the option to hide cooldowns longer than X seconds is to prevent longrunning cooldowns (like pala bubble) to show the full 40? minutes (whatever). So you can hide cooldowns longer than e.g. 5 minutes and make the cooldown show up if it is under that threshold (so you see the last 5 minutes of bubble cd).

The minimum time a cooldown has to last to show up is hardcoded to 3 seconds (as far as i could see by briefly scanning the code) so either an option to make that configurable or set it to 10 seconds if the playing class is a DK would be nice.

In the meantime you could change the code if you want to do just that:

In the file

Code:

CooldownButtons\Modules\Spell_Cooldowns.lua:60

Change

Code:

if enable == 1 and start > 0 and duration >= 3 then

to

Code:

if enable == 1 and start > 0 and duration > 10 then

along these same lines, would it be possible to add a condition to the if statement to check the player's class?

ie,

Code:

 if PlayerClass == "Death Knight" then
      minimumTime = 10;
else
      minumumTime =3;

 if enable == 1 and start > 0 and duration >= minimumTime then

edit: I did some research and found blizzard's UnitClass function. I'm gonna throw a few lines into the code and see if it works.
