ElkBuffBars - Ace2 version

[LaoTseu]

The cancel buff thingy could actually be another addon. Pretty much all the HUD, UF and Bar mods out there no longer have ways to right-click cancel buffes.

How do you summon your mounts? If you just put one on your bar, you can click it again to cancel it. If you use a macro, you can just add "/dismount" to the same macro. If you use an addon, it probably has a dismount feature. If all else fails, you could just make a "/dismount" macro and put it on an out-of-the-way action button.

I often click off the DBW buffs in PVP so I can actually mount, atm I am just kinda waiting it out

Did temp. disable the addon earlier as its my last ace2 mod and I had some crazy fps drop in Wintergrasp, no idea if it was related tho :s

I just have a macro that lists buffs I commonly want to cancel in a hurry:

/cancelaura Divine Protection
/cancelaura Hand of Protection
/cancelaura Noggenfogger Elixir

You could easily add the DBW buffs, or anything else you find yourself wanting to get rid of often.

Unfortunately cancelling auras is now a protected action, and the secure templates Blizzard added are extremely limited with regard to custom sorting and filtering, so any addons that want to provide advanced sorting and filtering won't be able to cancel buffs on click.

So a 4.0.x version of EBB was just released. However, it appears to still rely on Ace2. Does anyone know if this is temporary?

[electronicpunk]

Hope so, but at least it is more up to date now.

One thing I did notice about the new release is that it didn't work when I first ran, so tried it without any other addons - still didn't work.

Had to go into saved variables and edit the file removing all references to tracking and then it was back.

Thanks for updating

I've just downloaded r152 for 4.0.1. It works great, but I can't cancelaura by right click. Is that ok?

Cancelling auras by right click is currently not possible due to limitations by Blizzard.
If thats going to change in EBB, or if Blizzard changes it again .. i don't know.

delete your sv file and start over, the errors leaves when you wipe out the sv file, it's a ticket and already reported. It'll be fixed if/when it can.
