Missing loot roll windows and extra action button in special fights...

[spiel2001]

nUI Community News
(bug workaround)

It's probably going to be this weekend before I can invest a lot of time in sorting out the two remaining bugs... missing group loot roll windows for some players and the missing extra action buttons for fights like Atremedes, etc., that everyone is still experiencing.

If you are having problems with the group loot windows not showing, check and see if you have the addon "OneBag3" or "BagNon" installed... I am told that when these mods are installed, the group loot windows only appear if your bags are open. You have two options if that's the case... 1) disable or uninstall BagNon/OneBag, or, 2) see if you can open your bags when the loot event occurs and see the loot windows.

As for the missing action button... create the following Macro and assign it to one of your existing action buttons...

/click ExtraActionButton1

This macro should work even if you can't see the extra button.
I will try to get these last two bugs dealt with this weekend if not sooner.

Lastly... if you are not already an nUI supporter, your consideration would be deeply appreciated and is badly needed. Please consider visiting http://www.nUIaddon.com and signing up for one of the premium services or offering a donation to aid the effort... with my deepest gratitude...

Happy questing!

FWIW, I have Bagnon (4.3.0) and the loot windows work fine for me.
However, the "Extra Action Button" (aka Ultraxion button) is not visible with the 5.07.24 version of nUI, although the "movers" frame for it is during /nui movers ENABLED. (it WAS visible with the 5.07.22 version though - I skipped .23, so I have no idea if it was visible in that version)

My aunt and I both use NUI+ release and Onebag3. Neither of us have been able to see the loot windows for a long time. This makes things.... difficult.... for her when she runs dungeons and she can't roll on the important drops (like orbs). Any thought when this might be fixed? I know you've been busy, just mostly curious.

best thing is to get rid of onebag and install bagnon instead as the loot roll windows work fine with bagnon

as for the heroic button, make a macro instead for the time being until the issue is resolved

I <3 NUI and all it's features just wish there was a little more development.

Bear in mind that the main nUI product is worked on by one person despite the appearance that there are more .. the rest of us just try and help out where we can

I have found that during the Ultraxion fight and the Madness of Deathwing fights, if I use the following macro before I enter combat it shows the button and all is fine. This of course is just a temporary solution.

/run local b=ExtraActionButton1 b:SetParent(UIParent) b:SetPoint("CENTER",0,-230) b:Show()

To hide the button use

/run local b=ExtraActionButton1 b:SetParent(UIParent) b:SetPoint("CENTER",0,-230) b:Hide()

These macro's must be run outside of combat, if you are in combat with Ultraxion already the button won't show up and a taint message is given by Blizzard.
