CTMod Midnight 12.1.2 — timed-buff depletion coloring

Choose a tag to compare

@Skarpegg Skarpegg released this 13 Sep 04:15

Small follow-up to 12.1.1, addressing feedback that timed and permanent buffs looked identical in the new AuraContainer display.

New

  • Timed buffs now read apart from permanent auras. AuraContainer can't tell the addon a buff's duration (that's what lets it work in combat), so the full bar can't be colored per-buff — but the depletion (elapsed-time) fill, which the game draws only on timed auras, is now colored from the Depletion option (blue by default). So a permanent aura shows a solid green bar, while a timed buff (e.g. Battle Shout) shows blue growing in from the right as it runs down.
  • Re-enabled the Depletion color swatch in CT → BuffMod → colors (AuraContainer mode), with live update and reset support.

Notes

  • A freshly-cast long buff briefly looks green until it starts depleting — the only per-buff signal the secure system exposes is the elapsed fill.
  • The depletion color also applies to timed debuffs and weapon enchants (consistent "elapsed = this color").

CTMod Midnight 12.1.1 — AuraContainer migration

Choose a tag to compare

@Skarpegg Skarpegg released this 12 Sep 23:12

CT_BuffMod rebuilt on Blizzard's AuraContainer (WoW Midnight 12.1)

WoW patch 12.1.0 removed the secure aura header CT_BuffMod relied on, which broke its in-combat buff display on retail. This release rebuilds CT_BuffMod's display on Blizzard's new AuraContainer system.

New

  • Buffs, debuffs and weapon enchants display and update in combat again on retail.
  • AuraContainer is the default on retail (Midnight 12.1+); Classic/Cata keep the legacy display. Switch back anytime via CT → BuffMod → Buff display engine.
  • Full options in the new mode: colours (with a reset button), icon/bar sizes, font size, grouping & sort order, own/others split, visibility conditions, position/lock/clamp/reset, an optional title bar — plus new AuraContainer extras: row spacing, max buffs per type, and show only dispellable debuffs.
  • Dispel-type coloured borders on typed debuffs.

Fixes

  • CT_Library colour-picker crash on Midnight.
  • Combat "secret value" errors guarded across CT_BuffMod and CT_UnitFrames (auras, unit names, target/focus relationship checks).
  • Removed the brief flash of the old display at login.

Pre-migration rollback point: tag v12.1.0-stable.
