Question about Elune Power Raffle

[:1]This program is a great idea, but i was wondering is it possible to set it up so that once it loads the guild database I can remove any players not participating? and how would i go about doing that? I'm very new to wow ui design|||/bump

any ideas?

Anti-botting addon

[:1]I would like to see if any skilled addon developers likes this idea...

I think that there should be a collaborative addon that allows people to basically add the name, race and type of botter to a shared notice board in each zone. So that if they come accross that botter they can create a GM ticket automatically from this information to get rid of these botters!

I was in twighlight highlands last night trying to level mining and blacksmithing which, blacksmithing is hard enough without 5 botters flying around stealing your veins.



Blizzard seem to be doing very little or at least very little that is noticeable about botters because they are everywhere, world zones and they infest PVP zones. Blizzard told me to report every botter, I believe that if we can get a large number of people collaborating and reporting botters that we can destroy botting, but the community needs to be involved, it doesn't work if only a couple of people are trying!|||bump, anyone interested?|||Quote:

SetScript for a dynamically created element

[:1]So I'm using the Faux ScrollFrame code from wowwiki (well, wowpedia) and I'm having a problem..


Code:

function MyMod_OnLoad()
  for i=1,MaxLines-1 do
  blanki = CreateFrame("Button","MyModEntry"..i+1, UIParent,"MyModEntryTemplate")
  getglobal("MyModEntry"..i+1):SetPoint("TOPLEFT","MyModEntry"..i,"BOTTOMLEFT")
 getglobal("MyModEntry"..i+1):RegisterAllEvents()
 getglobal("MyModEntry1"):SetScript("OnClick",function ()
  ChatFrame1:AddMessage("Click Recieved");
 end)
  end
  
  for i=1,50 do
    MyModData[i] = "Test "..math.random(100)
  end
  
  MyModScrollBar:Show()
end

I'm not very far in the development of the portion of the addon using this, and I realize getglobal is deprecated but it is what the code sample uses so I figured I'd achieve my goals first before updating the code/element names.

The bold line is my problem--it works as is but if I change it to match the italic line above. So SetScript for a dynamically identified (and dynamically created) element, it errors out.. or more importantly.. stops execution. Is there a way I can say


Code:

 getglobal("MyModEntry"..i+1):RegisterAllEvents()
 getglobal("MyModEntry"..i+1):SetScript("OnClick",function ()
  ChatFrame1:AddMessage("Click Recieved");
 end)

Thank you for any help.

Screen Edge Flash Command

[:1]Hi Folks

I am new to these forums and am about to start writing my first addon fro WoW.

I am a sufferer of RSI/OOS what ever you want to call it and I find that when gaming I forget to stop and stretch regularly, so my idea is to build an alert system to remind myself when to do this.

I want it to be obvious but not intrusive, so I initially want it to pop a written message and have the edge of the screen to flash a couple of times. The issue I currently have is knowing what the commands are called, specifically the one that makes the edge of the screen flash.

Can any one help with what this is called.

Cheers

G|||Can you not use the in-game timer/alarm clock?

or the addon WoWtimer (http://wowui.incgamers.com/?p=mod&m=4225)? It may still work.|||Thanks Erinion, I will check out WoWtimer, but I would prefer something that is less intrusive, I don't want to click something to reset it, I just want a reminder. That way if I am in the middle of killing a mob I can wait until I have finished, or building it to check if I am in combat, if i am then it delays for 20 seconds or something.

I was also going to develop a setting so if I am in a instance then it is disabled.

Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Searching a specific event name

[:1]Hi,

I want to create a little add-on which play a little sound (like a ping) when something appears on the minimap (yellow dot).

But I don't find the event corresponding to the appearance of the yellow dot on the mini-map.

Anybody could help me to find this event?

Thanks for your attention.|||This question has been asked before and although I have no clue about addon writing, I do know that the appearence of a yellow tracking dot on the minimap doesn't trigger anything in-game (which makes your addon impossible to create).|||http://www.wowpedia.org/Events/M#MINIMAP_PING|||Quote:

Thats a ping (when someone in your group clicks on the minimap) NOT a yellow tracking dot.|||ow sry, misread his post

CritLine database file?

[:1]Hey there!

I'm probably not alone having a HUUGE Titan CritLine damage list? I can't even see my most common spells because of all other spells in the list, and I don't wanna purge it! Anyone know where CritLine stores the database?

hide outgoing whisper

[:1]Hey, I'm working with NinjaInvite to invite new members to my guild. Only I just want it to send messages and not instantly invite them. So after changing the settings my whole chatbox got spammed with outgoing whispers. To stop this I added a function to the code which I found with google, but it does not seem to work. All information I find said it should be done like this, how can I fix this?

(oh, I do get the message it sends in the function)


Code:

local frame, events = CreateFrame"Frame", {} -- this line is original code not written by me
frame:RegisterEvent("CHAT_MSG_WHISPER_INFORM");

function events:CHAT_MSG_WHISPER_INFORM(msg, sender, language, channelString, target)
  if string.find(msg,Ni_Settings.msg) then
    NinjaMessage("Send a whisper to " .. target)
    return -- also tried 'return true'
  end
end
