wlk bug

Open shenhix opened this issue 2 years ago • 15 comments

The wlk version will cause the Blizzard native prompt box to disappear! Cancelling the achievement prompt cannot be restored, it can only be disabled!

It's not a bug, it's an intended behaviour. It's mentioned in my FAQ, but I'll explain it once more. The addon completely replaces the default alert system, so when you disable something the addon just stops showing toasts of that particular type, entirely it won't re-enable Blizz toasts of that kind. It's done for multiple reasons, but the gist of it is that it's just due to how Blizz write their stuff, it can be hard or even impossible to re-enable certain types of toasts without messing up everything else.

That said, what do you not like about my achievement toasts? Feedback is always welcome 😁

As of 10/22/22 cannot get the interface by typing either /lst or /lstoasts; either returns a message: Type '/help' for a listing of a few commands.

I cannot get the interface to load no matter what I do. :(

@Velarax any errors? Does the addon work? Is it even loaded? If it tells you that you need to try /help for the list of commands, it means that my addon basically failed to load for whatever reason. Did you try deleting its settings from the WTF folder? They're in WTF/Account/YourAccName/SavedVariables, delete both ls_Toasts.lua and ls_Toasts.lua.bak.

@s890214 I'm not mixing my toasts with the default ones, it's a recipe for disaster. Is there anything in particular you don't like about my achievement toasts?

ls- avatar Oct 24 '22 18:10 ls-

Although the addon apparently is checked for loading, it is not functioning at all. I already deleted both the cache and the .lua and .lua.bak files.

Typing /lstoasts gets the standard /help? message, so apparently it isn't loading. I have tried disabling other addons to see if there is any conflict, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

Try /dump IsAddOnLoaded("ls_Toasts"), it should return 2 trues. Also try /dump not not ls_Toasts, it should return true.

Btw, are you sure you have the correct version installed? Double check that you don't run retail or vanilla version of the addon. I've seen it a couple of time that addon managers pulled the wrong version of the addon for some reason.

ls- avatar Oct 24 '22 19:10 ls-

DOH! That was it, I feel stupid. Thanks.

Velarax avatar Oct 24 '22 19:10 Velarax

@Velarax ahahah, it happens, can't fault you, it's like the 3-5 time I run into this issue. Do you by any chance use wowup? and where from do you download it? wago? cf? wowi?

ls- avatar Oct 24 '22 20:10 ls-

Actually curse is the culprit. I manually updated the one they had uploaded as "wrath." I see it's been fixed now.

BTW retail is unplayable without your addon. And I love the Classic and Wrath versions too, though announcements in those iterations aren't quite as obnoxious. Anyway, thanks for the addon.

your achievement toasts is too ordinary. It should be different from the toasts, Such as size and time It's not easy to detect right now, Because it's just like any other

I'll look into making it more ornate, prob an extra overlay. Something similar to the leaves on the default achievement frame.

achievement

But I'll do that only after I'm done dealing with the income sh*tshow that's the DF prepatch release 😁 The first few weeks after its release will be "fun" 😒🔫

Them all being of the same size is a design choice. I do allow for multiple anchors that have separate scale controls tho.

This is my attempt to make my achievement toasts a bit fancier. A compromise of sorts because I'm def not reenabling Blizz achievement toasts.
