MoP Challenge Mode Q:

I have no way to confirm this. I haven't been able to play because of financial reasons.

There has been someone that mentioned to me something about a Challenge Mode dungeon thing and something to do with the timer.

I have been looking around through (what I could find of) the code and can't seem to find anything about the timer for Challenge Mode.

Any info would be of great help (or even if someone can double verify this for me)

There is a challenge mode medal timer for challenge mode dungeons. The timer is displayed in Blizzard's watch frame, but most of the code associated with it is in FrameXML\WorldStateFrame.lua in WorldStateChallengeMode_DisplayTimers and associated functions.

Why are you uploading patches for other people's abandoned addons if you don't even play WoW anymore yourself and have no way to test that your patch actually works?

Thanks for the response. I'll keep looking around. Is it possible for someone to verify that it's indeed causing this timer not to show? It might be something to do with it being someone from Russia. Maybe the addon is just acting goofy with their client. (i'm not positive the localization is working right in the first place)

I was still playing when I took it over. Just because I'm not able to play now doesn't mean I'm going to forsake the few people that like the addon. :/

If the financial reasons aren't so bad that they keep you from having home internet access, you can use addons on a free account. Granted, there are limits to what you can test that way, but it's better than no account at all for testing!

Well yes. I do use the trial account to try and keep tabs on it. None the less I can't personally test the issue at hand because from what I understand you need to be 90.

Oh, and I failed to mention that on here it's not but in curse it shows him being the author and entrusting the addon to me because he didn't want to continue updating it.
