Kreiri's Buff Bars  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2.06
by: Kreiri [More]
Customizable bars for tracking buffs and debuffs. Inspired by Satrina Buff Frames.

Features:
- create bar groups to monitor buffs or debuffs on selected unit
- filter buffs by name, duration and caster (you vs. everyone else)
- customize buff/debuff/font colors, font size, background alpha, size and positions of bar groups.

Type /kbb ui to toggle settings interface.


Filter format:
  • filter by caster:
    • my - only casted by you
    • !my - only casted by others
  • filter by name: n<operator><value>, where <value> is name or part of the name of the buff and <operator> is
    • = - for "equals"
    • ~= - for "includes"
      Filtering by name is case-insensitive.
  • filter by duration: t<operator><value>, where <value> is duration in seconds and <operator> is
    • > - for "greater than"
    • < - for "less than"
    • >= - for "equal or greater than"
    • <= - for "equal or less than"
    Use t==nil and t!=nil to filter buffs with infinite duration

You can make combinations of filters using & (logical and) operator.

Examples:
n~=motif - matches all buffs with "motif" in name
my&n~=motif - matches all buffs with "motif" in name, which were casted by you.

Watching type:
buff to watch buffs,
debuff to watch debuffs.

Filtering type:
whitelist means that only buffs which match at least one of the filters will be displayed;
blacklist means that all buffs will be displayed, except those which match at least one filter.

--------------------------
On performance:
KBB has two throttle values, one for how often bars are redrawn and timers updated, and other for how often KBB asks server for exact remaining time of tracked buffs. If you have performance issues, try playing with KBB.throttle (how often bars are updated) and KBB.callsThrottle (how often KBB asks server for buff info) values in KBB_Defaults.lua file. If you had performance issues, and changing these values helped, please tell me what values you used.


--------------------------
On old slash commands:
they are still there! The list of slash commands is here.
--------------------------

Bug reports and suggestions are welcome. Please be sure to include in your bug report as much details as possible, including error message text, group settings (unit, filtering type, filters, watching type) and what you were doing when the bug occurred.

Post your bug reports here and suggestions here.

Like it; one fix needed so far

Love your concept and depth of manipulation you've made available. One annoyance is in the "casted" comment. There's no such word and tends to make you appear not as intelligent as you obviously are. Past tense of "cast" is "cast."

Did you ever know that you're my hero...

Seriously ... creepy subject line aside, you just made my day!!!

I loved SBF in wow (and was heart broken when it stopped working), so making this buff frames for us to have in rift is amazing!

thank you for developing this!

Liking the look of this, seem like an early version of [WoW's] SatrinaBuffFrames ...

Good stuff
