Got errors with nUI+ 5.05.00 since 3.2

Just removed wdb cache, wtf and addons folder, lanched the game, set my screen resolution, stopped the game, installed inside addon folder nUI+ 5.05.00 and relaunched the game and got the following error :

Code:
Message: Interface\FrameXML\WatchFrame.lua:244: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'baseAlpha' (a nil value)

}
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = "attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'baseAlpha' (a nil value)"
...
I use World of Warcraft 3.2 in French Language.

Any ideas about that issue ?

Thanks for help.

That error was reported here : http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=25929 with the fix of /nui rl to reload the ui.

It sounds like the loading sequence got confused and couldn't retrieve the information in the right order somewhere. I got that error once when I first logged in and not once since.

Thumbs down Error experience

I don't have any code to post. During an XT fight in Ulduar last night my nUI or I should say portions of it, just faided away like a ghost. On my action bar of 10 buttons I would say 7 of them just faided away. I could not click on them heck I could barly see them. So in the middle of tanking XT I was forced to /rl my interface. To my surprize I was still alive when my interface reloaded. It was all correct and everything was in it's place and working. About a minute later it all faided away again, exactly the same way. I went to my addon manager and clicked 'unselect everything' and reloaded my interface back to the default blizzard interface. And yes I was still alive when I got back to the battle. The blizzard interface continued to work correctly the rest of the night.

I am not sure what happened but I love nUI and hated to see it go. If you have any insight as to how to resolve this so I can reload nUI I would love to hear it.

Thanks

Can you do me a favor please and try to reproduce that problem then post me some screen shots... I need to see it to see what's going on.

What kind of system are you playing on? Video card? Were your action bar buttons the only thing fading, or was everything fading?

nUI does not fade buttons or action bars except when they are unusable... maybe that's what was happening is WoW was getting confused on what was and was not usable? You might try the '/nui bar dimming' option to turn that off and see if that fixes it.

The effect that was being described is what I see briefly whenever I take a flight point. It fades out briefly for a few seconds ( as those buttons are unusable ) and then restores back to its earlier alpha state. Although, I would have assumed it would stay faded but perhaps blizzard doesn't always mark a button as unusable if you are flying in the air.

I'll grab a screen shot if I haven't got one already.

Are you saying you're seeing the same thing where buttons are fading out during combat in your raids Xyrstal?

Nope, when I grab a flight point and start flying ( usually more noticeable at dalaran though ).

Pick a flight point to go to and watch bars. They will briefly fade to almost transparent and then in a few seconds come back. Its as if for a brief few seconds all actions are unusable ( which is quite possible ) and then they are ( which, considering you are still flying, should still be unusable ).


Ah here we go. Thought I took a screen shot the other day.

Oh yeah -- I've seen that too... I'm not sure why it does that with flight paths, but I have confirmed that it's because Blizz is initially reporting the buttons unusable with an active target and later with no target... it might relate to being in targeting distance of the flight master.

Ah maybe.

Will have to test and see if it flashes off quicker if I untarget the moment I lift off instead of waiting for it to get too far out of range.

Yes, untargeting immediately makes the buttons go back to their semi transparent phase.
