Cataclysm Beta

Are there any nUI users who are participating in the Cataclysm beta?

I opted in but *sigh* no luck yet. Keep meaning to mention the guild competition to my guild master. Being an nUI user himself along with about 4 others I am aware of at the last count ( 2 signed up in the last few days rofl ) . From what I heard though is that addons aren't enabled at the moment.

Off course I opted in... No luck so far. Was in the LK beta so I expect my changes are low..

Afraid of the "no addons" part of the beta tho :-p

Well... I do have a beta key and, as already noted, addons are currently disabled. I will be creating a cut of nUI for Cataclysm when addons are enabled. At the moment, I an planning on *not* posting nUI5 to Cataclysm, only developing nUI6 for it. So, unless I end up behind a curve, nUI5 will die when Cataclysm goes live.

At least that's the plan... and like all battle plans, may not survive first contact with the enemy.

Wow, guess I posted here before I got the WoWI access to the beta.

Been testing the new low level azeroth quests on some lowbies and transferred my 3 80s and created 2 other 80s for 2 of our guild's main tanks.

I've been throwing screenshots up on my website for the guild members to look at.

Until addons are enabled, there's little to do but explore cataclysm itself.

Scott, with the new downloader being instituted in beta I'm wondering what kind of fresh hell the "play while patching" thing will take us to when it eventually goes live. It obviously changes the order of the way things are loaded when the player enters the world and I'm thinking this is gonna wreak havoc on all addons loaded as soon as that happens.

Have you looked for any documentation on this? I remember nUI having load-order problems in the last live patch or two, sooo...

I know, just something else to worry about...

They haven't released any information like that as far as I am aware voodoo. That sort of stuff they usually hand out about a week after they activate the new functionality. Hence the problem with the last patch due to the lack of information on the new chat frame changes.

Ok, just needless worrying on my part probably... But hey, that's what I do best!

I beg to differ there Voodoo. I believe, in my humble opinion of course, that you are either the best, or one of the best at Topic Derailment. My two cents at least, lol.

Yeah... one of the things I've been trying to focus on with the code development for nUI6 is to get away from as much of this load dependency as I can. It's still a work in progress and I'm still awaiting some documentation as to what's up so I know what to anticipate.

It's probably going to boil down to just having to hammer it out by trial and error when the addons are enabled in the Beta.

Yep. I can see a lot of lemmings jumping off some of the highest cliffs in Azeroth when they put out the pre-patch right before the Cataclysm release.

With major changes touching almost every aspect of the game, I'm sure there's gonna be a lot of authors scrambling to keep up.

Blizzard has a lot of kinks to iron out before then, especially with the new patch system. I've been at 100% since Thursday am, but its still taking a few seconds for the graphics to fill in around my character.
