no frames during arena preparation

[masterkain]

when I enter an arena games no frames are being displayed, I have to manually enable game's builtin arena frames to view enemies before gates open. this started some time ago, I remember it working correctly about one month ago.

Okay, i only did solo shuffle so far, will be fixed soon. Thanks for reporting

[bullsei]

So i did some skirms and there it was working fine for me on retail. Are you playing on retail?

[masterkain]

yes retail, 3v3 and 2v2, no skirm

[bullsei]

Okay, i tested it in 2s and there it was working too for me in the prep room
Can you check again with the latest version 10.0.5.7?

[masterkain]

I'm already on that version, weird, not sure how to debug that

[bullsei]

are you familiar with wow programming?

[bullsei]

But wait, maybe it only works for me caues of other addons, i will try again with just bge enabled

[bullsei]

even with all other disabled it works

[masterkain]

are you familiar with wow programming?

a bit, I know that I'm using ARENA_PREP_OPPONENT_SPECIALIZATIONS GROUP_ROSTER_UPDATE PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD events for some weakauras

[bullsei]

okay, so in the latest versions i added more debug functionality.

1. To enable debug logs in general,

/run BattleGroundEnemies.db.profile.Debug = true

2. to show debug messages in the chat (Only required if you want to see the spam xD)

/run BattleGroundEnemies.db.profile.DebugToChat = true

3. to save sebug logs in saved variables (Required to save the logs to an actual file on the pc)

/run BattleGroundEnemies.db.profile.DebugToSV = true

by using 1 and 3 it collects logs in saved variables, but they get reset on PLAYER_LOGIN(triggered by reloadui or logging in) event. So you can collect the logs in the arena after that log out and check saved variables (\WTF\Account<YOUR Account name\SavedVariables\BattleGroundEnemies.lua), i gues best would be to put them in github gist or pastebin and i could check them. You can usa a macro like /run BattleGroundEnemies:Debug("in prep room but enemies not showing") when you are in prep room to make it more clear at which time the error occured.

[masterkain]

allright thanks, will do that and report back

Hey I just wanted to reply, as a sanity check, that I experienced this issue recently as well!

I think it happened when I toggled the four settings here:

For a few games, I only could preview enemies in 2v2 arena by having the default UI frames showing.

I logged out, logged back in, clicked the four settings on and off several times, and left them in their current state. I didn't have the issue since then so I never reported it.

[bullsei]

These settings shouldn't change anything regarding the bge frames itself, all it does it change the alpha (transparency) and scale of the blizzard arena frames

[bullsei]

Is still a problem?
