but this caught my eye cause its the only instance that messes with my graphics , cant see my target "circle" on the floor and all aoe effects are messed up ,in that i cant see them , not my own and not the mobs.

my other comp without nui but the same addons doesnt have the problem.

running win7 64 with a dx9 card so its not related to dx11

:edit
my other comp is has the same videocard so thats not the problem

Disappearing water, objects, e.g. is a problem that is not addon related. Happens to me too sometimes, mostly with specific objects tough. I read that looking at the green lines on Venoxis could make them disappear on some drivers, funny ey? :P

Same problem, same zone. Dx11 and Win7 64. Using Sunnart Viewport, so it does seem to be related to Blizzard's implementation of viewport calls and not the addons themselves?

So im confused is this or is this not an addon problem, it is rather annoying and i tried turning liquid detail to low and it didnt fix this, is there a fix to this?

[spiel2001]

This is not an addon problem, it's a Blizzard bug. However, for now, if you have that problem, you can work around the bug by following the instructions in this post...

Alright thanks that fixed it.

how would you get this to work with nUI6?

[spiel2001]

Look in the skin layout file. That's where the viewport is defined for nUI6

I am having the same water issues. I switched from directx9 to 11 with nui still disabled and the water was gone. I changed liquid detail to low, enabled the addon, and the water came back. I still have the issue of the graphics not on the same plane as my charactet at certain angles. Pc with windows7

[unionthugg174]

Tried to repair file. What program should I use to open nui.lua file?

[spiel2001]

Any plain text editor, like Notepad, should work.

Disabling WorldFrame:SetPoint in nUI.lua does remedy the problem, but, and with no offense to Scott nor any other addon author using viewport mods, Blizzard needs to step up and actually fix this, instead of beating around the bush, and pretty much placing the blame on the addons being used.

I've been following the threads pertaining to this on the WoW forums, and what it pretty much has boiled down to, in spite of users making the effort to link discussions with addon authors regarding this NOT being an addon issue, but instead, a problem with the way the aforementioned function is being implemented by Blizzard, is simply this: Since disabling your addon makes the problem go away, there is no problem to begin with.

Can't say as how I am surprised by this, honestly. I can, however, applaud the time and patience put forth by those authors who have to deal with this sorry attitude.

Edit: I R gud speeler

I disabled teh viewport as was suggested in the first reply on this thread, made the changes exactly as specified, saved the file, completely exited wow, restarted wow and everything works fine. so if that fix isn't working for others i would venture to guess you did not make the change correctly.

Scott, my email address changed... how do i update my email for your mailing list regarding nUI+ updates?

Whenever you receive a newsletter e-mail from me, there's a link at the top of it you can click the update your e-mail address. If you've got a copy of an old newsletter laying around, just use that link.

if it's a blizz problem how come when NUI is disabled the "bug" isn't there? in Throne of the Tides it's also bugged i don't think u may call it a Blizz problem therefor because if nui is disabled the "bug" disapears

The bug happens when the viewport is modified. Any addon that changes the viewport, or at least moves it up (or down I suppose) will have this bug.

[spiel2001]

What Seer said -- and there are already instructions posted (several times) for how to remove the viewport from nUI if the bug is bothering you. Myself, I just ignore it in the zones for the benefit of having the normal viewport working in all the places where it isn't broken.

i am using an i7 960 3.3ghz, 285gtx and have the settings for video at max... i used this to make the change in the file and everything is working great now...no more floating fish and seperated mounts =) tyvm

[unknowndead]

having an issue finding the code to fix this can some one post a screen shot of where the code is or upload a copy of the modified lua

[spiel2001]

Just open [World of Warcraft > Interface > AddOns > nUI > Main > nUI.lua ] in a plain text editor like notepad and do a search for this line...

WorldFrame:SetPoint( "BOTTOM", nUI_Dashboard, "CENTER", 0, 0 );

.
and change it to look like this...

--WorldFrame:SetPoint( "BOTTOM", nUI_Dashboard, "CENTER", 0, 0 );

.
then save the file and reload WoW.
