Alice Taunt Watch

[Letmebeshifty]

Hello guys/gals.

I am having trouble, Alice Taunt Watch is giving me problems.

You see it used to announce all taunts performed in party and raids into a System message (Think "Your share of the loot is 15silver" style message).

Now it announces /party and /raid.

I have managed to change the LUA so that it announce in EMOTE, but surely there is a way to get it to announce like a system message in chat frame.

Bellow is line 39 from lua

SendChatMessage("<TauntWatch> " .. sourceName .. " used " .. GetSpellLink(spellid) .. " on " .. destName .. ".", "EMOTE",lang)


Anyone got any ideas to help me out???

Give this a shot. Change the hex color to whatever you want. I'm not sure what color the system messages are exactly.

local hexColor = "34B7E2";
DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("\124cff" .. hexColor .. "<TauntWatch> " .. sourceName .. " used " .. GetSpellLink(spellid) .. " on " .. destName .. "." .. "\124r");

DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("<|cFFFFFF00[TauntWatch]|r> " .. sourceName .. " used " .. GetSpellLink(spellid) .. " on me.", ".",lang)

Thanks for setting me on the correct path, Learning LUA by trail and error, I know understand SendChatMessage is trying to send a message to a channel. Default_Chat_Frame, places them like the system message.

Again Thanks heaps, all fixed and working perfectly.

To be specific:
- SendChatMessage actually sends a chat message. As in, other players can see it.
- DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage() (and by extension, print()) simply add a message to your chat window. Other players cannot see this.

I learnt that yesterday, The whole LUA thing has sparked an interest and is something I may follow up, Might make myself a basic boring mod for the hell of learning something new.

I wrote an addon to be similar to the pre-5.0.4 version along with Monk taunt, Shaman's Unleashed Earth, all the class colors, tank stances, Misdirect/Tricks of the Trade, and pet taunts/threat abilities. Feel free to change the ChatFrame or whatever you need to your likings. For simplicity, I did not include a config to enable/disable the warnings.

local taunted = CreateFrame("Frame")

taunted:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, _, eventType, _, _, casterName, _, _, _, targetName, _, _, spellID, ...) 
	if IsInGroup() or IsInRaid() then

elseif (spellID == 61999) then --Raise Ally
SendChatMessage:AddMessage("|cFFFFFF00[Taunt]|r |cFFC41F3B" .. casterName .. "|r used " .. GetSpellLink(spellID) .. " on |cFFFF0000" .. targetName .. "|r." "RAID",lang)

Newbie95816, Thanks. I have changed the LUA over to your's (I hope this is allowed) as I liked the layout of each class being shown.

I wanted to add a SendChatMessage when any of the three battle rezzes get used.

Would the above coding be the correct way to get it to announce to /Raid. (Im not at home at the moment so cant log in and test this out.???

Also please Letme know if copying your script is not allowed and I will revert back to Alice Taunt Watch .

[Newbie95816]

Feel free to use it.. I updated the code a bit, there was an error with Hunter's Pet Intimidation before since I didn't have a hunter to test it.

elseif (spellID == 61999) then --Raise Ally
	if IsInRaid() then
		SendChatMessage("[BattleRez] " .. casterName .. " used " .. GetSpellLink(spellID) .. " on " .. targetName .. ".", "RAID", nil)
	else
		SendChatMessage("[BattleRez] " .. casterName .. " used " .. GetSpellLink(spellID) .. " on " .. targetName .. ".", "PARTY", nil)
	end

I haven't tested the code above. The addon should check if player is in raid/party all the way on top already.
