Rapid Raid Widget & Addon
Our Rapid Raid widget, for some time now, has been broken. In that the icons do not show for loot that dropped. Hovering over WILL show the loot, but the icon itself just shows a "broken" symbol.
Can this be fixed?
Also .. is the addon for this going to continue to be supported by GL? I'm sure I saw something recently about GL not being sure if anyone was using it any more due to the advent of forced PL in WoW. Obviously if you're no longer going to support it, then I'm not going to have the time to import this info manually, so there will be no use for the widget either. But I think both are nice to have.
Hey Poison,
We are going to continue to support CT_RaidTracker. Beyond that, I don't see much reason. I just double checked to make sure, importing a raid from CT_RaidTracker still brings in the list of items that will display in the rapid raid widget.
As for the icons being broken, that is something we still need to fix.
I downloaded and installed the most recent version of the addon yesterday (it states on the addon in-game 8.0 but I think it's 8.0.2) .. and it did track most bosses that we did .. however it failed to pick up MOTHER.
I've got a copy of the Yells that happened around that time, but I'm not sure which, if any, is classed as the death yell:
21:13:21 MOTHER yells: System restored. Levels returned to secure thresholds.
21:13:34 MOTHER yells: Facility systems compromised. Proceed with caution.
21:13:39 Princess Talanji yells: What is dis place?
21:13:52 Princess Talanji yells: You have been keeping dat abomination alive?! Why?
21:14:08 Princess Talanji yells: And have you found de answer?
21:14:24 Princess Talanji yells: We do not have dat kind of time! G'huun must be stopped now!
21:14:48 Princess Talanji yells: We have a plan. Activate de consoles and put an end to G'huun's plague once and for all.
21:20:22 Princess Talanji yells: What is dis creature?! It appears as if it were once a loa.
21:20:28 MOTHER yells: Observation accurate. This facility has run numerous experiments on loa to research solutions for Old God corruption.
21:20:38 MOTHER yells: Tests focused on the ability of G'huun's corruption to reanimate expired tissue. Results were inconclusive and specimens were destroyed.
21:20:49 Princess Talanji yells: You seem to have missed one.
I suspect it may be the first one.
Have you also changed the addon so we can no longer delete loot drops before we do an export to the website? There are some crafting materials that dropped, that I'd normally remove before doing the export, but I can't seem to be able to that any more.
Used the updated addon tonight and it seems to track fine. It picked up the MOTHER kill. However, the import didn't work to our site .. I've sent an email with the string as it was too long to post here ;-)
We've had another raid tonight. The addon hasn't been updated, and the import still didn't work. I'll send another email with all export info.
Could we possibly get a fix for this before Wednesday (our next raid night)?
Hey Poison,
Sorry about that. It turned out that I fat fingered a line break in the .toc file that caused the version line in the export to break. I've fixed this and uploaded to wowinterface. I also got the version number in the export correct this time!
haha no worries .. I thought it would probably be something simple (well .. to you guys!). I'll download and let you know ;-)
Imports worked (hurrah) on all bosses (woohoo!). Now we just need to sort out those broken picture links ;-)
The broken links that I mentioned in August last year are still broken on the widget.
Also, with the release of the new raid .. we don't appear to have an update for the raid tracker addon .. will there be one?
Hiya .. just wanted to let you know that following your CT_raidtracker update for Dazar'alor .. we did the first four tonight and it worked perfectly. Conclave later in the week, hopefully :p
