missing action buttons

tawaraya · 09-30-12, 08:50 PM

the buttons which wont shop up for me is the buttons to get out of chess pieces in kara. button to use hammer in the new panda brew 5man dungeon which is needed to use on the adds to kill them during boss fight. also button on ultra in ds. so mostly vehicle buttons so is there anyway for me to fix that and get them to show when i need them?

The ultra fight uses the extraactionbutton1 for that fight so possibly they changed the others to use it as well.

Until I clean up and identify all the changes needed to get it to work in nUI5 the quickest way would be to use a macro to /click extraactionbutton1 and use that when you need to. But hopefully within the next few days I'll have something that can be used to get it to work. Just need to do some more test runs after I tidy up the code and make sure I didn't miss anything.

I've encountered two landscape quests in MoP so far that require ExtraActionButton1 to complete, and nUI5 doesn't show the button.

Both quests are in the Valley of Four Winds.

One is a relatively early quest in the zone's quest flow, where you have to use a lasso to jump aboard a large bird. While you're fighting the bird (in the air), after a few seconds the bird will grab you in its talons, where you take continuous damage and can't do anything else. The button is used to escape the death clutch and return to the bird's back so you can resume fighting. The first time I attempted the quest, I couldn't figure out what was going on, so eventually it killed me. Then I Googled and saw that it requires using the ExtraActionButton.

The second landscape quest requiring the button is one of the final ones in the zone, at the Stormstout Brewery (note: not a dungeon quest). A giant hozen attacks you and stuffs you in a barrel. The only way to escape is to use the button. The hozen can't be fought, and paths back and forth through an area where you have to be to do other quests, so you will likely get "kegged" and need to use the button a few times. Since there's little risk of dying here, this would be an ideal quest to debug any fix to the button without requiring a group, if you can reach it.

Rather than using a macro, I just key-map it to an easy-to-reach key combination (I use Shift+Enter) using the Blizzard key-mapping panel. When the button isn't active, hitting the mapped key(s) doesn't have any effect.

Xrystal · 10-02-12, 01:00 AM

Yep, those quests are what helped me test my attempts at getting the button to display at the right place at the right time ...

I've tidied up the code and gone back to the base code for 5.07.26 and inserted the changed files and just waiting for the next quests to appear that need to use it but for those that want to test it out as well here goes with the changed files.

Just place them in the bars folder and logout (if you are still in the game) and log back into the game.

Then sit and wait or abandon and retry if you still have one of these quests still available.

Xrystal,

I got this

Code:

["message"] = "Interface\\AddOns\\nUI\\Bars\\nUI_ExtraActionBar.lua:120: ExtraActionBarFrame:SetPoint(): Couldn't find region named 'nUI_HUDLayout_PlayerTargetBottom'",

When I loaded up the game after adding these files.

Xrystal · 10-02-12, 08:33 AM

ok scratch that idea. it was a last minute change to get it to initialise near the hud area. I'll make some other changes. I didn't get the error myself so it might be a set up thing so I should change it so it works on everyones set up.

Xrystal · 10-02-12, 02:32 PM

Okay try this version out. It should hopefully place the frame in the center of the hd and allow it to be moved .... and not error out when people use different hud layouts rofl.

Helidoc · 10-02-12, 02:46 PM

Ok got no errors on loadup of the game. When I hit the movers button in nUI I was able to see it and move it and the game saved it's position. Thou every time I mouse over the square to move it I get the following error.

Xrystal · 10-02-12, 03:13 PM

hmm very strange. I'm not getting any errors at all.

Just in case it is a version problem. Are you using Lite or Plus version of 5.07.26? And the only files you have added/changed is the ExtraActionBar.lua and the nUI_Bars.xml files and put them in the nUI/Bars folder and then logged right out of wow and back in again?

Helidoc · 10-02-12, 03:25 PM

I am using the plus version of .26, I log all the way out and back in. The only edit I have made to nUI is adding a line to /plugins/nUI_ButtonBad.lua on line 162 I added [6] = "ZGVMarker.", to add a button to the button bag for Zygors guides. I removed that line to test to make sure I was not getting an error because of it and still get the same error. Here is the full parse with addons listed. Guess I can go through the add ons and see is one is contributing to this and go from there.

I'm not seeing anything jump out at me amongst those addons that is flagging up a possible conflict.

You might have to do the addon test to see which one may be conflicting. One of them may be working with the ExtraActionBar as well but not named specifically for it.

Helidoc · 10-02-12, 08:26 PM

Well disabled everything and can't seem to shake the error. My only other thing to do is to do a fresh load of the game and go from there :/

Edit 1: Ok vanilla install WTF and Interface folders fresh, only thing installed was nUI+ and Bugsack. No extras or addons for nUI installed. I get the following when mouse over of the button with /nui movers invoked.

Code:

BugGrabberDB = {
	["session"] = 2,
	["lastSanitation"] = 3,
	["errors"] = {
		{
			["message"] = "nUI-5.07.26 (Plus)\\Plugins\\nUI_Movers.lua:1162: attempt to index field \"?\" (a nil value)",
			["time"] = "2012/10/02 20:37:39",
			["locals"] = "",
			["stack"] = "nUI-5.07.26 (Plus)\\Plugins\\nUI_Movers.lua:1162: in function <nUI\\Plugins\\nUI_Movers.lua:1155>",
			["session"] = 2,
			["counter"] = 1,
		}, -- [1]
		{
			["message"] = "nUI-5.07.26 (Plus)\\Plugins\\nUI_Movers.lua:1216: attempt to index local \"mover\" (a nil value)",
			["time"] = "2012/10/02 20:37:43",
			["locals"] = "frame = ExtraActionBarFrame {\n 0 = <userdata>\n intro = <unnamed> {}\n outro = <unnamed> {}\n button = ExtraActionButton1 {}\n ignoreFramePositionManager = true\n}\n",
			["stack"] = "nUI-5.07.26 (Plus)\\Plugins\\nUI_Movers.lua:1216: in function \"dragFrame\"\nnUI-5.07.26 (Plus)\\Plugins\\nUI_Movers.lua:1077: in function <nUI\\Plugins\\nUI_Movers.lua:1075>",
			["session"] = 2,
			["counter"] = 1,
		}, -- [2]
	},
}

Xrystal · 10-03-12, 01:08 AM

hmm very weird. I've not installed a bug grabber addon yet since the beta came out but have the blizz lua errors activated. Well did have. Will double check or load busack and see what happens then. But probably tonight after work. I'm at a loss at the moment why you're getting errors and I don't.

This error only appears on login when trying to move the frame right? It's not triggering when the frame is supposed to appear during a quest?

Xrystal · 10-03-12, 01:28 AM

Okay try these 2 files.

On another toon I got the errors you were talking about but after I put these changes back that I didn't think was necessary this way when I was tidying up the errors went away.

i wil try those aditions out found a daily repeatable that also uses that button if it spawns in vo4w its the chicken search repeatable at lvl 90 for the tillers faction wil give u a feed back afther tomorow if its again selected .

Ok that did the trick Xrystal

The error only occured when having movers active and trying to move the frame once you moused over it, it would toss that error. I have yet to see it when the button is actually active in game for a quest.

Xrystal · 10-03-12, 02:15 PM

Okay, well hopefully between us we will hit upon it. I've been listing quests that either definitely or possibly use it ( for those I couldn't abandon and repeat or forgot to ) in this thread so hopefully it will appear as needed. I do have a backup of the nUI folder I had that definitely worked for the quests I saw it was needed on so if for some reason it isn't working now even on my setup I'll see what is still missing that I may have forgotten was a requirement to it working.

Sliver21 · 10-04-12, 09:41 PM

There is a dungeon where you have the button to come up for meditation. It is the last boss in monastery. I tested it out in a pug group with version 5.07.26 it will not constantly display. Could be a more consistent area to test out your fixes.

Xrystal · 10-05-12, 12:40 AM

As far as I could see in the quests is that the button doesn't consistently appear. It pops up as needed.

I tested out the same quests with blizz UI and made sure it did the same thing.

When you need to press the button it flashes up so you can click on it. If it does that then it looks like I finally got it working. Yaay.

Xrystal · 10-05-12, 04:11 PM

Another quest that uses the extra action button is http://www.wowhead.com/quest=30690/u...ng-the-yaungol at level 88. Looks to be working as expected.
