Will SAA be updated for MoP? (SquawkAndAwe)

Slowone — Sat, 22 Sep 2012 16:51:31 +0000

I really like this addon and want to know if this will updated for MoP 5.0.4? I have deleted the addon and the saved files along with it in my WTF file and then reinstalled and still not working correctly.

Bug with Bars (SquawkAndAwe)

MattScudder — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 15:21:38 +0000

I love this addon, but I'm having a distracting issue with it and I'm hoping for a fix.

Basically, all the bars flicker on when I target or loot a mob. It's pretty annoying and is the only thing keeping me from using this mod right now.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi,

i recently installed squawk and awe and it doesnt seem to count down the remaining cooldown on starsurge. Is it meant to do that as i thought it would?

I keep having a problem. The bars wont disapear from my screen even when effectrs are finished, i have to reload my UI so that they disapear. Any reason or fix for this ? It's like they don't unload and stay there after and they don't work.

For those waiting for an update for 4.0.1, it's in the works and should be out in the next couple of days. If you'd like to help test while I clean it up, head over to the thread on EJ.

Paradime — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 15:33:01 +0000

The GCD tracker seems to be bugged, the bar doesn't appear and whenever your gcd goes off, my game freezes for a split second. I wound up disabling the GCD bar and it cleared the problem right up. I also really like the new bars, I've loaded up a few buffs onto it however i have a question about ticks, is it possible to have the tick time reduced based on spell haste without having to recode the addon?

Adoriele — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 01:24:49 +0000

A note about 1.6.0: All of the instructions you'll need for adding your own bars to SAA are in CustomBars.txt. The first step is to rename the file as CustomBars.lua, so if SAA gets any bugfixes before the next major revision, the update won't overwrite any custom bars you've added.

As well, I'm looking for input on features to be included in version 2.0.0, which will be geared toward Cataclysm (but may be released earlier if it ends up being easy). For a general description of the major changes in 2.0.0, and to give me your input, check here: http://elitistjerks.com/f32/t35477-squawkandawe/p23/#post1738472

I was curious if you'd ever recode this addon for other classes that use dots like warlocks.

Not natively, unfortunately. That's a lot of information to keep track of when new patches come out, and it's usually a fair amount of effort just keeping Balance druids implemented correctly (as well as adding features). That said, the incoming revision (which I know I've been saying will be out in the next couple days for a few weeks now) will have the ability to add custom bars. It won't use the in-game interface, instead it has you add information to a file designed for that purpose, but there's technically nothing stopping you from adding Warlock spells to the file if you'd like (though that's somewhat unsupported - it may throw errors). You'd need to disable the check for whether the character loading the addon is a druid, but that's a simple hack. I may also remove it, since SAA will now have an explicit disable function.

The next major revision, which is targeted towards Cataclysm, may be tailored to be even simpler for adding your own bars, and since it requires an almost complete rewrite I may try to make it easier to use with other classes as well. Again, it will still only officially support Balance Druids and include Balance spells by default, but I might give some extra time to make sure that it doesn't take much work to tailor it to a different class instead.

Adoriele — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 23:23:37 +0000

SAA Disable: Perhaps. Would probably just stop all combat log parsing, which might be good enough. Will look into it. No plans for profile support, as I know just about nothing of its implementation.

Frenzy: Working on it now, actually. Expect a new version soon which adds custom bar support, so you can add your own bars to SAA without waiting for an update. This will not be an in-game option, but you'll be able to add bars through a file specifically made for the purpose. Eventually with the next major revision, this will become even simpler (and maybe in-game, but no promises on that). Will probably roll a disable command and a couple of other feature requests in at the same time.

narnith — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 15:58:21 +0000

I have a question, are there any plans to ad a /saa disable command or anything of that nature? The reason I ask is that I play boom/resto, and where I have SAA on my boomkin UI I have Grid on my resto UI. While most of the bars won't show on my resto spec, things like trinkets do. Alternatively. is there any sort of profile support coming? That would help me accomplish the same thing.

owlkin frenzy? (SquawkAndAwe)

hey, love the mod but just wondering, is it possible to get owlkin frenzy added to the list of proc's the addon shows?

trclocke — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 22:25:47 +0000

minor bug with the t10 idol, Idol of the Lunar Eclipse. The Vicious buff can only last a maximum of 15 seconds, but the buff bar only shows half full at 15 seconds, implying that it could last as much as 30 seconds: Screenshot

That screenshot also reminds me of a couple things:
SAA doesn't track the number of stacks the idol's Vicious buff has: if you are able to overlay a number on top of the icon (similar to the DoTimer timer you'll see in the screenshot), that'd be helpful.
Does SAA display trinket procs, like Muradin's Spyglass's Cultivated Power, or is trinket display limited to on use trinkets? I'm honestly not sure since I use DoTimer to track them, just curious.

New version is incoming which adds a few features. Included is tracking for T9 and T10 idol procs and Languish. If anyone has any ideas for other Balance buffs to track, now's the time to bring them up.

Spiritfire — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 03:19:47 +0000

Just a suggestion, what about adding a bar for the Blessing of the Moon Goddess proc from the Idol of Lunar Fury, or procs from other idols? Currently I had to make a custom spell bar for IceHUD for this, but it would be nice to be able to have that in SAA instead.

Everyone just keep your eyes on this thread over at EJ, the nice people over there is trying to fix and update the addon to work fully as before plus new stuff like 2T10, sounds and bar options.
