Keybinds wiping out - Page 7

o.O

Did you disable nUI in game? Because is saves its key bindings back to the default Blizz action bars when you exit the game. So, your key bindings should have been the same.

You might try enabling nUI again and see if the key bindings come back. Otherwise, you'll need to press "Escape" to open the Blizz options menu, select "Key Bindings" and then set your key bindings there.

I disabled it 'ingame' where you can disable addons usually. It's the character selector screen, there is an addon panel, where I choose my rogue (on a drop-down menu top-left), and disable nUI only at him.

Well... that's technically not "in-game" because you have not entered into the world yet. If that's the case, then your key bindings should have been saved from nUI's action bars back to the default Blizzard action bars the last time you logged that character out with nUI enabled unless you had a game crash.

Were you using the default Blizzard interface before you started using nUI or were you using a custom interface? If it was custom, there's no way for nUI to "save" the key bindings of all of the other custom action bars out there... it only saves and restores the key bindings on the default Blizzard action bars.

In any case, if the problem is the key bindings on your default Blizzard action bars then re-enable nUI for that toon and log him in. Are the key bindings back on nUI's action bars? If not, try a '/nui rl' and see if they appear. Are they there then? If not, you'll have to use the "Key Bindings" interface options screen to reset them.

Also, keep in mind, that if you are not saving your key bindings by character (you're using the default account wide settings) and you're trying to use two different action bars addons (one UI on one toon and a different UI on another toon) you're going to have all kinds of problems. If that's the case, you need to make sure you are saving your key bindings on a per character basis so the two bar mods don't compete for the key bindings.

1: wow default user interface, two of 7 toons has own keyboard mapping
2: installled nUI
3: found nUI not comfortable for pvp at my rogue (one of the toons with special keymap)
4: disable nUI only for rogue on wow addon interface.
5: cry

I still don't know how to disable nUI the right way ('ingame as you asked). to get normal user interface back.

If you want to disable nUI for just your rogue, then at the character selection screen, click the "AddOns" button, select your rogue's name from the drop down list of toons and for that toon, disable nUI then close the window.

Log in on the rogue. Are the key bindings there? If not, press "Escape" and select "Key Bindings" and make sure the "Character Specific Key Bindings" option is checked. Now, you can either click "Reset to Default" to return them to the WoW defaults or you can scroll down the list until you find the "Action Bar Functions" and then set each button to whatever key you want bound to it.

There has to be some way to resolve this issue. Last night in ICC 25-man, once I had been bitten for the Blood-queen encounter, I had to stop using keybinds to cast because they were permanently bound to the 'possession' bar.

I understand that it is a difficult issue to resolve. However, maybe a quick note to the developers of other bars, like Bartender, might be in order. It seems to be working without a hitch.

Did you try changing bar pages? Try SHIFT-2 then a SHIFT-1 and see if it works.

Taralas · 02-23-10, 04:40 PM

No joy on my end. We went back last night, and the same thing happened again. I had to disable nUI in order to get through the event once this happened on two seperate events. Trying to go from keybinds to click on buttons to cast and maintain max DPS just isn't feasable in my case.

I am aware that I could setup a different keybind to a macro to do the same thing, but this really feels like a workaround.

Which brings me to the next point. I know there has been some talk regarding this, both on the forums and through PMs. This isn't a new issue. It's been going on for months now. An ETA for a more workable solution would be wonderful.

In the meantime, I have to go find a way to make this work for raiding.

I am going to *try* and get an attempt out for a fix this weekend. I don't know if it will work, but I'm going to give it a go. We'll see then.

LittleKit · 03-01-10, 10:29 PM

As per the email request, I'm relating my experience with this issue. After about the first 10 minutes of trying to figure out what was wrong, I discovered that if I simply typed "/reloadui" immediately after logging in, the problem did not occur during that session. Since that time, it has been habit to just reload the ui after logging in.

*EDIT: I should also point out that when the key bindings were a problem, the numbers/labels for the keybindings did not show up in the toolbars. After /reloadui, the numbers showed up and the bars worked as intended.

*EDIT2: The update nUI 5.06.08 seems to solve the problem for me.

woot,

looks like Scott found the cause

Nightmare_Lord · 03-02-10, 12:50 AM

downloaded it and started wow keybinds were still gone

I uploaded a screenshot so you could see.

I even pushed Alt+A which is suppose 2 be my Gift to see if maybe they just don't show up on action bar, but instead had my BW CD poped (I hate Blizzard Bad Coders)

Edit *Screen Shot shows me hitting Alt+A and have BW poped

What about after you closed that start up screen or did a reloadUI to fix it for that session and relogged in ? Or relog and see if after that it works all the time. From the sounds of the success for the last user it didn't work immediately but after the 2nd or 3rd login it worked flawlessly.

Nightmare_Lord · 03-02-10, 03:02 AM

nope didn't work either, I closed at window and did a nui reload, did some dailys, login to my druid for her jc daily (had to do a nui reload) than login to Dk to make new hunter glyphs and had to do a reload, than loged back into hunter and had 2 do it again, than I exit the game to relaunch after downloading Pawn to try it and had to do it, than checked all toons again and same. My buddie a rogue still had it as well.

Like I said it stupid coding on Blizzard, they think they are perfect so there coding sucks on things like this. Blizzard should of gotten this fixed as well.

I will be login again sometime tomorrow after school going to bed right now, and I check it again.

Scott,

I just tried your latest version of nUI+ (Release Ver. 5.06.08) and there is still a keybinding issue. On first logon the keybinds will be one way then if you do a /nui rl they swap to a different setup. It seems to be bars 3 and 4 that can't make up their minds.

This is with a fresh install of nUI+ with no other addons and no legacy Interface/WTF/Cache folder.

spiel2001 · 03-02-10, 10:54 AM

Thanks for the heads up. I'll continue to look into it.

This would be so much easier if I could reproduce the problem on my computer

/sigh

That said, I'm looking for some feedback on whether or not people are having issues with the key binds stopping to function while in combat. I think this is two separate issues.

For Druids and Rogues as well as Warriors who stance dance in combat... with nUI 5.06.08 installed, are you seeing any cases where you action bar changes when you change stance/form/stealth but the key bindings are still linked to the actions that were on the bar before the change?

Aurlon · 03-02-10, 11:12 AM

I just did some more testing. I competely defaulted all my keybinds across all my characters, logged out, deleted Interface/WTF/Cache, re-installed a fresh copy of nUI+ only and reconfigured my bindings. If it makes any difference, I bound the keys directly using nUI's keybinding section rather than letting nUI grab them from Blizzards section.

I bound G to nUI "Right Unit Frame Bar / Action Page 4" button 11. Tested the bind worked okay and closed WoW. Upon a fresh login when pressing G it uses the ability on "Left Unit Frame Bar / Action Page 3" button 11. If I did an /nui rl it would resolve the issue.

Hope any of that is some help.

Something that might further help: On first login the binds do not show on the buttons and are either invisible or displayed as "?"'s. Again, /nui rl fixes this problem.

Ripnshread · 03-02-10, 11:22 AM

I have also experienced this problem on my priest, seems that the bars to the left and right of the character section loose thier keybindings on login. If I open my WoW keybindings thier are no keybindings under NUI, although the main bars 1 2 and 3 still seem to be bound. I have found that a /reload ui fixes this problem. I will repost when I have tried the newest update. Fyi, I use a Logitech G13 and the Steelseries Wow mouse.

Yeah see I posted something like that while ago, Nui Left Action bars and Nui Right Action Bars are switched from Default wow, nui left should be right action bar 3 and nui left should be right action bar 4. Despite the problem never happen something breaking it now in wow. So I suggest just changing the bars in the code. For me when keybinds break Alt A which is on nui left action bar after /nui rl is really Alt+Q in vanilla wow(no addon) because of the bars.

for this issue I never had it on my druid, I go bear to cat to prowl - caster - shadowmeld-back to cat-to prowl and never have that problem, of course my keybinds don't work until I do a /nui rl upon login everytime but other than that never had it. My friend a rogue says something like it keep telling me he needs to be in stealth and not 2 think of it I think he was getting the problem, now since he not able to be on until this weekend and I never see it on my computer on his account, so until than I can't help you on that, but hopefully it would be fix.

Ripnshread · 03-02-10, 11:46 AM

After downloading and instaling the latest version of NUI+ I am still experiencing the keybinding issue. It seems that the left and right unit frame bars are switched. Exp: If I hit my keybound button for rt.unitframe bar button 1, lft.unitframe bar button 1 is activated. Again, in WoW's keybinding interface all NUI keybindings are blank, although the main bar keybindings (NUI bar 1) seem to still be bound. Also again, upon a /reload ui this issue seems to be fixed. Keep up the good work and hope this helps.
