Ok after recoding for the UnitCvar my Mazzle has been working at about 75% I still havent got my Combat Log... so today I ran Jwowupdater and it updated everything now all my windows are moved and it has elimanated my Mazzle icon completly, I goto the Addon section to load it and I get a Descrepancy error 231... any idea's... it is completely unusable at this point and time considering I now have window in the middle of my HUD..

So i started using LunarSphere instead.

I appreciate all the hard work you are putting into fixing this. If there is any testing I can do for you let me know.

Thanks in advance for the answers.

There is a setting for the context menu to not close when clicked under MazzleUIOptions.

Ditto for me. For discrepancies it shows Ace2, babel 2.2, banazalib, metrognome, DiscordUnitFrame, RosterLib

any idea how to get Mazzle working again?

Most likely you have lost some dependencies or gained some files that are in direct conflict with other files in your addons.

This is why I DONT use Jwowupdater, its not very smart. It will arbitrarily change files it believes to be outdated or that it "thinks" there are better files that it can replace them with. It dosnt worry about if the file names have been changed or anything else. It dosnt take into account that there may be other files that have the old ones as a dependency. It will do fun things like say (just a hypothetical example) "look theres addon.2 but addon.3 is out now, since it is newer it is better lets delete addon.2 and use addon.3 instead". Another good example is the jostlelib folder being deleted and being replaced with libjostle. Any prog that is going to go in and make a decision on its own about what it will or will not delete/modify on its own with very little control on my part is not for me.

My final 2cents - if it aint broke dont fix it. Ive made a lot of changes to the mazzle ui package myself and go in and fix what needs to be fixed but there are a ton of things that ive dropped the handy .svn folder into simply because IT WORKS AS IS AND DOSNT NEED TO BE MESSED WITH. Sure, i keep an eye on these addons and when there is an update i will usualy test it out, thats what i keep a backup folder for. But for the most part as long as its working its gold to me. A good example is - i updated to bongos2 way back when 1 broke, it still works great and after a quick run through the options you can figure out how to use it and set it up easily. Havnt seen a thing in bongos3 that is a big enough imp for me to worry about updating to it. When 2 dies ill start worrying about setting up 3 lol.

For Nydas;

Look in your addons folder, you'll find that banzailib is gone. Go get it and put it back. Add it to the exclusion list in jwow and you should be good to go.

Nydas · 04-08-08, 07:19 PM

K. So after several hours of deleting all my add ons and starting fresh from scratch, ive gotten Mazzle working again. So far everything seems fine, but im getting this one error code. Not sure what it is.

I love MazzleUI!!! and despite the fact that the various libs had "dissappeared" when jWu-ing (figured out how to fix this) I hope that a new working version of MazleUI can be released soon.. 'cos when I make a new toon it takes me ½-1 hour to get UI working again.

I've installed Bongos2 and have to disable B2, enable B1 + autobar (along with some others that i don't use) just to get MazzleUI to mazzify.. and then I still need to reload UI 2-3 times, log out, dis-/en-able the reverse from before and mazzify AGAIN, then set up the various addons as I like it/have it on other toons

I have the rutine somewhat down by now, but it's STILL a pita having to do this EVERYTIME i make a new toon

That's probably b/c you disabled Prat.

DanielCoffey · 04-09-08, 12:31 AM

Nydas and Spiritwulf - check and see if DUF is reporting a dependancy problem. If it is, have a look on page 1 of this thread for a possible solution.

After taking a whole day to scan my system with several virus / spyware scanners I did find one on my system. Did not reinstall WOW however the portal to the new area works again.. Many thanks..

I cannot complete a Mazzify.

Before saying 'read the first post', I have read the first post as well as many others and I am not sure if my problem is the same.

1. MazzleUI works well for all my existing characters. I do have a few minor issues but as a whole I can play fine.

2. I have updated alot of individual add-ons such as Chartographer, Omen, nQuest, Lightheaded, SCT, Auctioneer, etc with success.

I just cannot finish a Mazzify on new characters. No error message. Just no 'Finish' button after I click on Mazzify.

I have read some work arounds but most seem lengthy and likely to mess with my mazzleui on my existing characters which is working fine.

Can anyone with a similar issue direct me towards a possible solution?

You'll need to edit .lua file otherwise it will not work.. Also make sure to disable the addons that will not work such as Witchhunt. SCT does not work as of yet, can not use Bongos 3 I believe.. Gotta be careful what you update and make sure the major lua files have all the updates..

If you are seeing the Mazzifier but not getting the second button, you are almost certainly getting an error of some sort. You're just not noticing it.

Look in the bug sack in Fubar (looks like a sack and can sometimes be hard to find) and/or your chat text. You do not get a big error window, if that's what you're looking for.

Kadell · 04-09-08, 12:29 PM

Ok I completely deleted WoW and reinstalled it ... reinstalled Mazzle.. did all of the Changed to the CVar but I still get a Nil Value at Mazzle.lua 409 on the CVar ... I checked my spelling and still nothing
and now I also have Duf errors that I never had before

Stupid question: Does anyone know the "proper" settings to manually configure cfilter and / or witchhunt to replicate the way that mazzle / 2.3 *used* to work?

It looks to me like the best way is to disable witchhunt (as it doesn't provide much info in combat now), and set cfilter for incoming (to me) to chat 6 and outgoing (from me) to chat 7.

Even then, I get an amazingly, spammingly, unreadabley amount of text pouring into chat 6 and 7 during combat.

Anyone got a good batch of settings for cfilter to as-close-as-possibly replicate the old 2.3 settings?

As best as I've been able to figure out so far window six gets you and your pet as the source. Window seven gets you and your pet as the destination. All other boxes on this tab are empty. The next tab for both windowsis basically everything checked. I'll try to get a better writeup for it later...

Also the only other thing I have noticed is that after mazzlify

Aloft seems to lock on, I have to disable the addon to get regular nametags back.

I installed combat filter, but I can't find any documentation for creating rules to display to the 6th and 7th window, can someone point me to some documentation or give an example of how to configure it.

Also the one thing I haven't like about Mazzle, but yet I haven't looked into fixing in the context menu.. everytime I click on an item it closes. I have to reopen it to be able to click anything again.

Do not mazzify w/ Aloft... It's kinda really broken now... The parts that do work are really resource intensive as well... The initial patchfiles I hope ot have out later this week will disable setup/usage for Aloft until it gets updated or removed/replaces all together.

Your combo points (I'm assuming you're talking about the ones on the HUD) are part of the Mazzle custom addons... Not sure why they aren't showing up but check the MazzleOptions.

See above response for CombatFilter setup (command is /cfilter)

Both JWU and WAU are nice and delete libraries when they are no longer needed. Unfortunately, they don't check all addons, only the Ace ones... When the last Ace addon you have installed updated to LibBanzai-2.0 it removed BanzaiLib. I'm looking at making the switch for MazzleUI but haven't had much time to get to it yet.

It's actually a feature of both JWU and WAU to do that. I believe both have the same problem. Also, tagging addons w/ .svn flags is not a very good practice. When they make updates to mods, they do it for good reason.

There are many reasons to use Bongos3 over version two. The biggest is in how the bars are created. Bongos3 actually support an arbitrary nunber of arbitrarily sized bars. Bongos2 does not, bar size is fixed to 120/(number of bars). Which is a problem when trying to setup MazzleUI to play nice with it. Also, Bongos3 has an incredibly improved configuration UI and process. Under the hood version three is way better than any previous version. From a user standpoint, Bongos3 is a lot simpler to use, has more features and properly implements several things added to the WoW client in recent patches.

It's also easier for other developers to setup; even though that wasn't a design consideration.

You don't have to disable WitchHunt. Just the MazzleUI_Preloader for it. Instructions are in the OP.

SCT I haven't had a chance to verify yet but it may mazzify properly anyway.

Bongos3 will work better than Bongos2 would but it can't be mazzified at this time.

If you're still getting an error @409 you missed a cvar.... search the whole file for "UnitNamePlayer" to find the one you missed.

DUF errors may go away once that's fixed. Otherwise you may want to try out the newer DUF version linked to earlier in this thread around page thirty.

Pretty much got all my mods working, but now i cannot seem to get one back to the way it was after a jwowupdate. checked all the mods and can't seem to figure out which one it is.

Its the mod that when you mouse over an enemy or a friendly, it gives you a quick run down on them, how many times you killed them, who they are looking at, guild they are in, class etc, and the box actually shows up at the mouse icon.

Now when i mouse over all i get is a default name, guild and if they are pvp active or not. And it shoves it right down the bottom right corner.

Any ideas?

DanielCoffey · 04-10-08, 06:15 AM

That is probably TinyTip.

Nezrite · 04-10-08, 06:56 AM

I, also, had a problem with my 3d model not appearing on the pedestal. It was stuck up in the lefthand corner, and I had a modified version of the WoW UI for party members as well.

Turns out that during the course of flailing around, trying to get things working, I failed to re-install Ace2. I had a lot of the Ace2 mods and most of them worked (dunno how), but Ace2 itself was not in my AddOns folder. Plopped that in there and voila, my little dancing self was back!

Yes this is tinytip. It's been reworked and if you want the placement to be correct (assuming you get the latest) make sure you get tinytip, tinytip options and tinytip placement.
