WoW 7.3.0 question .. CensusPlus Options

Post by bringoutyourdead »

after enabling the out of date addon..
does the options button work for you?

Do any of your addons that were tied into Blizzards options window display options setting anymore?

And I found the problem.. and work around until I upload the next release

Blizzard removed an API call with 7.3 that we were using in two locations in CensusPlus.
one was in the code to open up the options window.

work around...
to access the options window..
Game main menu button / Interface / select the addons tab and open the options window by selecting CensusPlus addon.


I have commented out the two calls and have been testing to see if there are any other problems.

I am not sure how I want to handle this change.
I will think about it tonight and implement code changes tomorrow...

I expect to have new version of code on upload sites either later tomorrow or Thursday.

Since the problem does not impact data integrity, this will not be a mandatory update, but it will be highly recommended.
Or in other words the existing acceptable versions will remain good for uploading to warcraftrealms.com

EU servers have been up for 2,5 hours atleast (noticed at 5:50), but I didn't have time to test anything before I left for work..

Also, remember to bump TOC ;)

Guilds are not displayed in the window, and Show Chars button does nothing..
Related to options-button??

Also...

Since v7.3, window opens like this for 5ish seconds, until it completes drawing.
Any way to fix?

Edited after checking: the lack of textures on logging in is most likely ALL THE THINGS which I see in your chatbox - I too have been getting that on login (on all kinds of windows, including Blizzard quest UI) and suspected it was probably that addon hogging the memory while it checks your collection. I just disabled it and no issues on login this time.

Possibly related to the Show Chars not working (this error appears around the same time I press the button, although it's not saying it's related to censusplus, perhaps it just triggers something in Blizz UI):

Code: Select all

10x [string "*:OnClick"]:1: Usage: PlaySound(soundKitID, optional["SFX","Music","Ambience", "Dialog" or "Master"], [forceNoDuplicates, runFinishCallback])
[C]: in function `PlaySound'
&#91;string "*&#58;OnClick"&#93;&#58;1&#58; in function <string>

Locals&#58;
&#40;*temporary&#41; = "igMainMenuOptionCheckBoxOn"

But ALL THE THINGS completed 5 seconds before the screen shot is even made...

grumble, grumble, .xml files .. grumble

at least two of the .xml files have the no longer correct API call which break all the following code in the subroutines. (the character display)

I am working on battery power and can't work on this before the battery dies.

I will be able to work on this tomorrow and may have update for later that day or Tuesday.

Sorry about that.
Right after my last post, I got pulled into a massive project at work with many 12 hour work days, and I forgot this problem
I am working on the code now.
