LUA errors, Patch 3.3.5
 

So many, as a matter of fact, my framerates have dropped to 3, from 60+

FIX IT

My husband and I also had the same problems, though we are not going to demand that you "FIX IT!" so much as ask politely. We have become addicted to Carbonite =)

I concur, It would be a gem if you could get it working for us again, or at least let us know that you are working on it.

Pretty Please?
 

Pretty Please? I won't rudely demand that someone fix this fantastic freebie download, but I will beg, plea, and be very unmanly for the next few minutes...

I haven't noticed any framerate drop myself

But what I have noticed is that the guide arrow doesn't turn smoothly with me anymore, it seems to hang wherever I am facing and then update every 10-15 seconds or so, to wherever I happen to be facing then. Just thought I'd mention it

I would post my errors, but I can't seem to figure out how to see them; it just comes up and says that there are errors, and that Carbonite is the one that is causing them...in addition to the framerate problems.

Open up World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons\Carbonite\Carbonite.lua and change ChatFrameEditBox to ChatFrame1EditBox at line numbers 18702 and 18722. That eliminated the errors for me.


*Thank you Xrystal if you happen to be reading this, one of your post's gave me the answer :)

It won't let me edit the .lua file >.<

:(

Did you try and open it with a text editor?

Ah, thank you - but those lines don't coincide with my own carbonite.lua - where can I look to find my personal errors?

You should be able to just do a search (from the find or edit menu's usually) in the file for "ChatFrameEditBox" It should be around halfway down as a guess. Once you find it, change it to "ChatFrame1EditBox".

I did a bulk replace in my file and it worked (capital letters are required)

Thanks for the heads up :)

Thanks, sorry - I'm not computer illiterate so much as programming illiterate, so the help is very much appreciated!

Thank you, the mass replace worked beautifully, not a single error!

Thank you both for your assistance!

I'm programming illiterate for the most part as well, but I can stumble through pretty well :)

That's the same error info everyone is getting. Yours is just referencing another line.

Take a look above at post #8 for how to fix it, just apply it to your line number or bulk replace them as EvilJookie did :)

It Worked
 

THANK YOU. If you open the lua file "using a program from list", use notepad. Then "replace all" using his info about the ChatFrame.... stuff

I tried the mass replace (Backing up the file first) and it broke carbonite completely, so I restored the backup and it was still broke so I'm at a loss o_O

Guess I'll wait for the real update
