NUI 5 and the PTR

[bwhansen]

I was wondering if anybody has tried NUI 5 on the PTR and what the results were. It seems likely that the patch is falling tomorrow and I'm afraid my beloved NUI isnt going to work very well.

An update on where NUI 6 is would also be a very good thing since it hasnt had an update for general consumption for awhile now.

Thanks for any information on either of these topics.

not too sure about nUI5 on the PTR but this is nUI6 on live with some other mods filling in for nUI features until they are added

To be honest, I'm not really that interested in piecing together things to get the same look/function. The appeal of NUI for me (and a lot of others I bet) is that its all in one. I dont like having 15 different addons to manage, with NUI I had a total of 4/5 depending on if I felt like I needed recount at the time.

I've looked at other UI's out there and none of them fit what I want. Most likely if NUI is a dead project I will probably go back to the Blizzard interface.

I do hope life is treating Scott a little better these days.

Haven't tested it much but so far no issues really. Didn't do any dungeons or Raids tho.

I just finished DL'ing the PTR and NUI 5.

I get errors on the map for the info-panel. Didnt have a lot of time to check out everything, but that was as soon as I login.

you really should give nUI6 and do what i did the chances of nUI5 getting updated for 4.1 is less than none.

It's in the "Dungeons & Raids" category as "Raid Boss Alternative Bar", named as such because the same frame is used by several encounters.

Also you can add frames to MoveAnything's list, with "/move frameName" or "/mafe frameName".

Okay managed to get PTR up and running with just base nUI 5.07.12 installed.

Noticed glitches:
1. Minimap in infopanel sized wrong
2. Player Portrait still not appearing
3. In game tutorials highlight elements as if they were in their original place.

I'm a bit worried now as well.

Last time I read a post from him was about telling the nUI users that he took some time off to dedicate himself to get v6 up and running asap.

Which never happened..

I fear the worst.

Is it time to find another UI ?
