Maelstrom Buff Display

[bluenjoy]

Hi. I'm looking to use the same script Alza used for Sword & Board for my shamans Maelstrom talent. The one thing I'm stumped on is how to display the stack on the spell icon.

local spellName, _, spellIcon = GetSpellInfo({51528,51529,51530,51531,51532})

local frame = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
frame:SetPoint("CENTER", UIParent, "CENTER", 1, -90)
frame:SetHeight(57)
frame:SetWidth(57)

frame:RegisterEvent"UNIT_AURA"
frame:RegisterEvent"PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD"
frame:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, unit)
	if(not unit or unit=="player") then
		self:SetAlpha(0)

		for i = 1, 32 do
			local name = UnitAura("player", i, "HELPFUL")
			if(name==spellName) then
				return self:SetAlpha(1)
			end
		end
	end
end)

frame.icon = frame:CreateTexture(nil, "BACKGROUND")
frame.icon:SetAllPoints(frame)
frame.icon:SetTexture(spellIcon)
frame.icon:SetTexCoord(0.1, 0.9, 0.0, 0.9)

frame.overlay = frame:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY")
frame.overlay:SetTexture("Interface\\Textures\\border")
frame.overlay:SetAllPoints(frame)

Any help would be great.

Thank you

You will need to add a FontString and then the number of stacks from the UnitAura function

So I came up with:

local spellName, _, spellIcon = GetSpellInfo(53817)

local frame = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
frame:SetPoint("CENTER", UIParent, "CENTER", 1, -90)
frame:SetHeight(57)
frame:SetWidth(57)

frame:RegisterEvent"UNIT_AURA"
frame:RegisterEvent"PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD"
frame:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, unit)
	if(not unit or unit=="player") then
		self:SetAlpha(0)

		for i = 1, 32 do
			local name = UnitAura("player", i, "HELPFUL")
			if(name==spellName) then
				return self:SetAlpha(1)
			end
		end
	end
end)

frame.icon = frame:CreateTexture(nil, "BACKGROUND")
frame.icon:SetAllPoints(frame)
frame.icon:SetTexture(spellIcon)
frame.icon:SetTexCoord(0.1, 0.9, 0.0, 0.9)

frame.stacktext = frame:CreateFontString(nil, "OVERLAY")
frame.stacktext:SetFont("Fonts\\ARIALN.ttf",20,"OUTLINE")
frame.stacktext:SetJustifyH("RIGHT")
frame.stacktext:SetVertexColor(1,1,1)
frame.stacktext:SetPoint("RIGHT", frame.icon, "RIGHT",1,-5)

frame.overlay = frame:CreateTexture(nil, "OVERLAY")
frame.overlay:SetTexture("Interface\\Textures\\border")
frame.overlay:SetAllPoints(frame)

still not showing the stack.
Can some1 help this poor novice

From: http://www.wowwiki.com/API_UnitAura

name, rank, icon, count, debuffType, duration, expirationTime, unitCaster, isStealable, shouldConsolidate, spellId = UnitAura("unit", index or "name"[, "rank"[, "filter"]] count Number - The number of times the debuff has been applied to the target. Returns 0 for any debuff which doesn't stack. ( Changed in 1.11 ).

Then frame.stacktext:SetText(value) after matching spell.

I'm still utterly confused. I'll find some Maelstrom announcer I guess. Thanks for your assistance

You could try taking a look at the enhancement setup in http://www.wowinterface.com/download...amanAuras.html

Thanks for much for this source. I never tried PowerAuras to it's fullest potential and these presettings are amazing!
