HealPrediction @ oUF_Drk

DBS · 01-01-11, 07:09 PM

Hello,

I'm in need of some assistance regarding the HealPrediction @ oUF.
I currently use Qulights UI ( http://www.wowinterface.com/download...htUI.html#info ), with oUF_Drk, and apparently by default the HealPrediction isn't enabled and i would like it to be.

yj589794 kindly provided me with this link: https://github.com/haste/oUF/wiki/el...prediction-bar ; but i dont really know in which file i should add/look for this

Could really use some help from you experts out there.

Thanks in advance.

oUF_Drk has support for heal prediction for quite some time now, maybe Qulights UI use an old version. Try grabbing the current version here.

Thanks for the reply drakull.
While looking at the lib.lua on Qulights oUF_Drk folder i found this lines:

Code:

lib.HealPred = function(self)
	if not cfg.ShowIncHeals then return end
	
	local mhpb = CreateFrame('StatusBar', nil, self.Health)
	mhpb:SetPoint('TOPLEFT', self.Health:GetStatusBarTexture(), 'TOPRIGHT', 0, 0)
	mhpb:SetPoint('BOTTOMLEFT', self.Health:GetStatusBarTexture(), 'BOTTOMRIGHT', 0, 0)
	mhpb:SetWidth(self:GetWidth())
	mhpb:SetStatusBarTexture(cfg.statusbar_texture)
	mhpb:SetStatusBarColor(1, 1, 1, 0.3)
	mhpb:SetFrameLevel(3)

	local ohpb = CreateFrame('StatusBar', nil, self.Health)
	ohpb:SetPoint('TOPLEFT', mhpb:GetStatusBarTexture(), 'TOPRIGHT', 0, 0)
	ohpb:SetPoint('BOTTOMLEFT', mhpb:GetStatusBarTexture(), 'BOTTOMRIGHT', 0, 0)
	ohpb:SetWidth(self:GetWidth())
	ohpb:SetStatusBarTexture(cfg.statusbar_texture)
	ohpb:SetStatusBarColor(1, 1, 1, 0.3)
	mhpb:SetFrameLevel(3)
	self.HealPrediction = {
		myBar = mhpb,
		otherBar = ohpb,
		maxOverflow = 1,
	}
end

and also this on cfg.lua:

Code:

cfg.ShowIncHeals = true -- Show incoming heals in player and raid frames

Now considering i'm no expert in this, is this enough to enable the HealPred?

Or is there something else that might be turning it off or missing in the .lua files? I'm really clueless here and i really could use the "visual heals", atleast on the player frame (without dismantling the whole edited look Qulight did on your layout

).

That implementation looks ok, given a quick glance. The only thing I would check is that cfg.statusbar_texture is pointing at a valid texture file. If that file does not exist, then your incoming heal status bars will not be shown.

Code:

cfg.statusbar_texture = "Interface\\AddOns\\Qulight_Media\\Other\\normTex"

This is what says on the cfg.lua and the file in question is where it is directing it to..

Anything wrong with it or? Because so far i've not been able to make any progress with this issue

+ still no answer from Qulight on this matter.

Thanks in advance.

OK, I've had a look at the layout you are using and I've found the issue you are seeing.

In that layout, the incoming heals are only enabled on raid units.

If you want to enable incoming heals on other units (player, target, targetoftarget, etc.) then you need to look in core.lua.
There are style functions in that file for each unit. e.g. CreatePlayerStyle, CreateTargetStyle.

For each unit that you want incoming heals then in the style function you will need to add the following line:

Code:

lib.HealPred(self)

Note, the above line must be added somewhere after this line that already exists in each style function:

Code:

lib.gen_hpbar(self)
