ControlFreak   Popular!
ControlFreak is a small crowd control assist addon. It provides a small frame for fast click-casting of CC spells onto the player's focus target. It also provides visual cues of the focus's status and audio cues of CC breaks.

ControlFreak is designed to be an "install and go" addon for all classes with sustainable CC spells, but it also provides direct access to edit the macro used by the frame for players that want to extend it's functionality.

For users who want a macro instead of clicking on the frame, put this code into a new macro and drop it in your actionbar:
/click ControlFreakFrame

new version not working

I really like this addon. I haven't sheeped with my mage for awhile but when I tried with the new version, it doesn't work. I can right click and get options and left click and get the ready but when it's in range and I click, nothing. unless they changed the script code again


edit: lol. it's Polymorph(Pig) now. works fine

Отредактируй ControlFreak\Locale.lua, чтобы выглядело вот так (в редакторе выстави кодировку UTF-8):
Code:
if loc == "deDE" then localized = {
	Beast = "Wildtier",
	Demon = "Dämon",
	Elemental = "Elementar",
	Dragonkin = "Drachkin",
	Giant = "Riese",
	Humanoid = "Humanoid",
	Mechanical = "Mechanisch",
	Undead = "Untoter",
	Unknown = "Nicht Spezifiziert",
}
elseif loc == "ruRU" then localized = {
	Beast = "Животное",
	Demon = "Демон",
	Elemental = "Элементаль",
	Dragonkin = "Дракон",
	Giant = "Гигант",
	Humanoid = "Гуманоид",
	Mechanical = "Механизм",
	Undead = "Нежить",
	Unknown = "Не указано",
}
 end


Tekkub, where is WidgetWarlock-Alpha1 library?

Use any other focus target macro without "/click" in it or just click the frame with the cursor. Both will work without issues.
Isn't it possible to call the function click fires with a script in a macro?

Or add a keybinding function to the addon?

Focus of Target - Explanation

When I get focus of a NPC to shackle/sheep sometimes, the group will switch NPCs for me to shackle/sheep. I target new NPC and set focus with ControlFreak, when I do the sheep/shackle, its the prior target not the current one that gets sheeped/shackled.

Is there anything I am doing wrong?

Tekkub, UnitDebuff in the beta now returns expiration time instead of time left. To make ControlFreak indicate the correct time remaining you should change line 260 to

timeLeft = (select(7, UnitDebuff(unit, controlled[unit]))) - GetTime()

in ControlFreak.lua

I noticed the LibDataBroker folder is empty, so I'm guessing that might have something to do with it.
The current 2.4.3.9-Beta release here includes all needed files including LibDataBroker-1.1.lua; no more errors will occur at logon.

"...that causes problems" is not any help. What problems? As listed by the author on the first page: Please report all bugs and feature requests to my Google Code tracker. And try to provide more info than "it causes problems" .

Since the last patch, I get a taint error the 1st time I use CF after logging in.
I notice trinityactionbutton mentioned there, but I get the same error with bongos. Is it a problem with my actionbar addons perhaps?

Code:

Yeah I got the same error too.

I downloaded Picofriends another Tekkub mod which used it and copy/pasted the libdatabroker folder from there (which is not empty). No errors now
