Damn Windfury! not working

Damn Windfury! not working

by Eukal » Sun Nov 29, 2015 4:19 am

Hey,

I got this awesome addon named 'Damn Windfury!'.
http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/project-2710/
There are a few links, but all of them labeled german.

But it won't work, I figured out its because of the localization.
I changed 'Events Stuff' to this (german to english):

-- ####### Events Stuff
DW_EventWindfury = "You gain (.+) windfury" -- You gain windfury
DW_EventHit = "You(.+) (%d+)" -- You hit target for
DW_EventCrit = "crit" -- The word for crit
DW_EventSingle = "Single" -- The word for Single
DW_EventDouble = "Single" -- The word for Double
DW_EventTriple = "Triple" -- The word for Triple
DW_WordWindfury = "Windfury" -- The word for Windfury
DW_EventChain = "Chain" -- The word for Chain


But it still won't work. I'm a newb in scripting,does anyone can fix this?
I'm getting no message in the standard frame, chat frame and sct.

Thanks in advance.

Chat/"Combatlog" messages are case sensitive. Are you sure the combatlog doesn't say "You gain Windfury"?
Check out what EXACTLY it says. The (.+) is a placeholder. It means between the words gain and windfury, there needs to be at least 1 character. If the chat doesn't match that pattern, the addon won't work.

In the second string, same thing, whereas (%d+) is a pattern for any number (the number is later extracted, that's what the % is for).

Thanks for the quick reply.

Thats pretty weird....wf proccs but there is no message in the combatlog about it, just the damage gets displayed. I dont get a wf animation either.


/ I asked a buddy and he says he got no animation/messge too since ~thursday.
The strange thing is, today after logging in I got the chat+standard frame message 1-2 times, but no sct message.
Didn't check the combatlog tho.

I think Nost broke something, it's not the addon's fault.

The addon won't even show in my addon's list. Anyone else have this issue?

that can only be partially true, if you consider that Nost can't break things since they recreate the code of blizzard.
So yeah it is possible that there are minor differences and with this AddOn code it's very likely to be affected by such a small difference.
This AddOn is reading the Combatlog and as schaka said those messages are case sensitive.
the string of characters must be 100% perfect to get the AddOn working.
so double check that you did everything correct.

MAYBE I'll take a look at it at home

Did you check all combatlog filters, to be sure that is 100% not visible in combatlog? the default filter settings of the combatlog have some kind of combatlog messages hidden.
IF it's not visible after all the entire AddOn would have to be completely rewritten if it's even possible another way, since it seems to be based upon reading Combatlog.. so you get what I mean

that will very highly not be related to the AddOn, you probably just didn't insert it correctly.

It is definately not the addons fault. Or at least partially not. The way the addon detects the WF proc is that it listens to every single buff is applied on you and then counts the next 3 swings and adds it up. However, on nostalrius the extra swings are not applied as buffs. They are just extra hits. I did very basic debugging and found this out. I have no idea for a solution at the moment however.
