new release (Aloft 2.4.3-261). please verify that the FuBar_LuckyCharms bug is fixed, and fiddle around with both FuBar/LibDataBroker, as well as Broker2FuBar and FuBar2Broker, in whatever combination you usually use. also, for PvP folks, see if Blizzard's ShowClassColorInNameplate configuration option works the way you want it...

bah! i found it, a stupid typo. i assigned a value to the variable "profile" without declaring it as a local... so, stuff that loads after Aloft and wants to reference AceDB-2.0 stuff slightly out of order (like, during AceAddon-2.0 load-time callbacks) would suddenly find this global named "profile" and try to use it (when it should...

update: i am getting this exact error, except it travels through Skillet (i.e. Skillet's embed of Ace2) instead of ElkBuffBars (i.e. instead of EBB's embed of Ace2). a matter of load order, i expect. i will add Skillet to my list of things to make certain are updated. i can verify the error goes away for me too when i disable Alof...

Originally posted by grimman Good to hear it's on the horizon at least. :) yeah, i think chopping Aloft up and giving the user control over what they want to have active will be a big help. given your concerns, i looked at Aloft again, using OptionHouse (or "OptionlessHouse" as it is now called), just to make sure i had not...

Originally posted by grimman I haven't looked at the source to actually see what/how the addon is doing, BUT it seems to me the resource usage is every so slightly MASSIVE! yeah, unfortunately. for those skimming this: FYI, in terms of performance within Aloft itself, turning off nameplates seems to offer the biggest win. if...

Originally posted by Maldazzar everything seems to be working cleanly now very good to hear! however, aloft still only colors hostile nameplates after mouseover. actually, this would generally be "expected behavior", and in fact is true of friendly player nameplates as well, out in "the world". Aloft proactively sc...

Posted By: acapela
a new version of Aloft is pending approval: 2.4.2-244. this has the fixes for the cryptic PvP-oriented healthbar class color issues reported recently. NOTE: i did not have a chance to test these in Arena (i tried, but i could not stay alive long enough to twiddle different Aloft options and observe the effects; debugging in that s...

Originally posted by Phanx I'd actually suggest including only native LibDataBroker support. LDB is supported by a half-dozen display addons, including Titan Panel. FuBarPlugin is supported only by one display addon (FuBar); those wishing for an Aloft icon on FuBar can install Broker2FuBar. i am comfortable with this. what do o...

Originally posted by Maldazzar all right, I did some further testing, and here's a list of my thoughts that I'm sure are important to you! this looks like a very complicated set of interactions. thanks for looking at it, it should all help us figure out what is going on. i did some checking a couple of releases back (which i...

Originally posted by byo In a previous version I had when I would change the nameplates shown aloft would print a message in chat about which ones were being shown.

Originally posted by daf Hope it helps. yes, actually. looks like a simple typo in my code. already fixed locally. i will test it along with my LDB<->FuBar testing, and get a new release out as soon as i can. thanks for spotting these folks, i really appreciate it.

Originally posted by SoLoR Same problem as vithos, i think currently this is only addon that trys to support both fubar + ldb and users that are using fubar2broker will get error for some reason. You could just decide to support one and others can use fubar2broker or broker2fubar if they want support for other one... yeah, good...

Originally posted by Phanx I would prefer that "presets" of any kind beyond a single set of defaults do not find their way into Aloft, or any other addon. It's not hard to either (a) download a separate preset/layout addon, or (b) set up the addon yourself. Including presets in the addon itself is a complete waste of resources for...
