Combo Points in HUD

I've just added a new nUI HUD addon that will put your combo points Up by the Target's information in the HUD. I find this much easier to find than looking down into the Unit Frames during a fight. Hope others find it useful. Should work with any class that has Combo points during fights. I have tested it with my Druid and Rogue.

Check out my HUD Level addon while you are there.

Thanks again to Scott for the excellent nUI Addon, and the ability to add features of our own so easily.

Please see the nUI: HUD Designs section for the download: http://www.wowinterface.com/download...mboPoints.html

Hmmm... I wonder what happened to the combo points I already had in the HUD? They *used* to be in the same location as the casting bar since rogues don't cast. Strange... in any event... thanks Wreck.

Okay... so I've been testing this morning and I do see the combo points in all three HUD modes... dead center below the healthrace bar and I'm wondering now what the problem was that you're not seeing them.

The attached screenshot is taken this morning without changes. You'll see my lowbie rogue's combo points on the target in the HUD just below the healthrace bar.

I'd love to know why you're not getting those.

EDIT: Yes... I see the range indicator bug, too ~grin~

Dunno, if you can figure it out I'll gladly stop using the extra Addon

Are you using the out of the box nUI HUD layouts or are you using customized HUD skins? Can you e-mail me a copy of the file [ Interface > AddOns > nUI > Layouts > Default > HUDLayouts > PlayerTarget > nUI_HUDSkin_PlayerTarget_Target.lua ] please? [email protected]

Don't think that's necessary. When I install nUI every time I delete the original nUI folder and copy the new version from here to my Addons directory. Whatever is in your code is on my machine.

If you are curious:
Code:
# cd World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns/nUI/Layouts/Default/HUDLayouts/PlayerTarget
# md5sum *.lua
784951c937b0ac99b01c00a4e62944ac nUI_HUDLayout_PlayerTarget.lua

a6dba3e71f052987aed7802e13b74ea7 nUI_HUDSkin_PlayerTarget_Target.lua
9336710e75483948903f1f8db741d5b0 nUI_HUDSkin_PlayerTarget_ToT.lua
That is as of today's 5.03.04 release.

Hmmm... okay... so at least in theory you are using the HUD skin files exactly as I distribute them without change then... so it has to be something else.

I wonder if any other droods are having issues with the combo points... maybe it's a drood thing. I'll borrow my daughter's drood and do some testing to see if that's what it is.

o.O

Hmmm.... that's... errr.... confusing as hell.

If you're using nUI outta the box without changing the HUD layouts/skins than I'm miffed at how you're now getting the combo points... especially since you're adding them in with your mod.

If you do a clean install without your mod, what happens?

Alright, I don't know what the issue is with my Druid, but with my Rogue your combo points were visible when I turned off my addon. For now I am going to keep the Addon, as I find I prefer the position of the data at that location. I'll change the description to tell people it just moves the Combo points to that location.

I'll also try to figure out what is going on with the Druid.

Yeah... so now we're back around to where I was yesterday... may be an issue with the drood class. I'll borrow my daughter's druid and see if I can find anything.

External action bars? You mean special action bars for Vehicles?

Have you upgraded to nUI+ Dev 5.03.05?

Combo points have been fixed for a very very long time. They should appear in both the HUD and on the target's unit frame.
