Hahah I feel you! But I do got to mention that etrace is a bit weird when it comes to COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED sometimes the args are not in correct order but nothing a print() can't figure out :)
Hey bro, thx for ur work! I really like ur lessons, also ur cooool voice. It's ez to learn about those details with ur explanation. I'm looking forward to watching more ur progress in coding.
Useful for if you want to check the chatbox for things but in the long run it isn't all that useful beyond such specific use cases, could've been interesting to see a bit more varied stuff in regards to units rather than chat
Most times you can get away without using custom code, but if you absolutely have to then the best way I found to deal with it is to pull a boss and have 2 macros: An etrace start and an etrace stop, once the mechanic im looking for I press start, once it's done i press stop. This will allow me to only have a selected portion of the fight I can then filter the things im looking for. Another tip is that normally most stuff we're looking for tends to be in combatlogeventunfiltered. This strategy ends up saving us lots of time :D Happy coding!
I need to set up a weakaura to trigger only if the group's healer is a member of my guild. I don't even know where to start on this. Is there any way you can help me?
Depending on what you want the WA to go you might get different triggers but you'ld always have to make an if statement to check if they're in the guild. This API should help quite a bit: wowwiki-archive.fandom.com/wiki/API_GetGuildInfo
Can someone explain me how to setup Between the eyes for Rogue with next trigger: if combo points >=6 or if stealthed and combo points >=5 Tried to work with custom triggers but didn't succeed. I'm creating first trigger for type 'Player Power' and setting Power to >= 6 which works perfectly, but don't understand how to create second trigger with same instruction like first but also including Stealth aura. Will appreciate any help. Thanks!
Hey! I have a question about a Weakaura I can't figure out how to make. I was curious if I could chat with you about it either in game or dis. I could throw some gold or something your way for your service as well!
Good day Wyven, Im attempting to create an aura that activates on range check. But im having difficulty finding the option or custom code to test for that
Thanks, there are a lot of very usefull information in here! I tried my own custom code today but it doesnt work as i want it to... In the trigger i set to look for normal hits in the COMBAT_EVENT_LOG_UNFILTERED that have me as target. This part works without problems and the amount of damage is displayed correctly in my Weakaura. But somehow it only gives me the first hit, the following hits wont be counted. I would love to add all the hits together so i get the exact amount of physical damage i recieved during the last pull. Do you know what could be the problem here?
Hey! Thank you for the nice comment :) The answer to your question depends on what exactly do you want your WA to show. The subevent might be an issue I can't know for sure without looking at it, but I do remember working on a WA for Sha of Fear that was similar to this and I made a lot of mistakes on selecting the subevents. To be fair the only way I could give you a more acurate answer is by looking at the WA if you want to send it to me on discord and potentially describe a bit more what you want to do. And who knows... sounds like a nice WA for a Weakaura Challenge video :)
Hey! Unfortunately that is not a built in function on WA's so you would have to do it manually through custom code. I advise looking up the WoW API's. Perhaps a good starting point is this: wowwiki-archive.fandom.com/wiki/Damage_reduction
hey man I tried to do the guide I just cant seems to follow all throughout. I just want to activate some cosmetics like toys whenever I enter the cat form and remove the buff given by toys whenever I leave the cat form. Please, I need help, this one really important for me. and thanks a lot man for doing a great guide.
This is something that would be better done with macros I believe. Bind the toy to cat form (or the button you use to enter cat form) and then put a cancelaura macro on the buttons outside of cat form.
Thank God I have a BG in Javascript 😅 helped me adapt to LUA code so much. Great tutorial bro
Holy shit Etrace. How did i not know this existed? I've been Print() ing everything into the chat window to find the right args. Legend!
Hahah I feel you! But I do got to mention that etrace is a bit weird when it comes to COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED sometimes the args are not in correct order but nothing a print() can't figure out :)
Thank you! SOLID video on a topic that can be tricky when new
Still pretty confused but at least you told me how to read the code, thank you so much!
love you man i knew a littlebit lua but never though that this would be that easy . thank you so much
Hey man, I just wanted to say that this helped me so much and allowed me to script a bunch of stuff in my new WeakAura! Thankyou so much!
Hey, im glad i was able to help! Keep up the good work ;)

I doubt I will make more WA stuff since my focus atm is with my retail guild and CE :)
Thanks a lot mate ! Thank to your video I was able to hide my mouse cursor Weak Aura when holding mouse right button down.
programming + gaming = ❤
Thanks for this amazing video, i learned a lot with your help !!!!
Thank you! The etrace is an ingame feature with the client, all you gotta do is type /etrace :D

Great tips. Thanks!
Earned a sub hope to learn a lot
etrace got me on fire! :D
Build my first own wa like this! :) It announces "more loot" while skinning in DF :) THX!
Great video. thanks.
Great video! Got one question. How do you find the right events in boss fights? Checking back etrace in a 10 Minute fight sounds impossible!
Most times you can get away without using custom code, but if you absolutely have to then the best way I found to deal with it is to pull a boss and have 2 macros: An etrace start and an etrace stop, once the mechanic im looking for I press start, once it's done i press stop.

Hey! I'm very washed up nowadays with weakauras but feel free to send me your idea on discord and I'll see if I'm able to help ahah xD (Wyven#3611)
how can i change the color of a 3D model weak aura?
Good day Wyven, Im attempting to create an aura that activates on range check.
But im having difficulty finding the option or custom code to test for that
Range check ones no longer work.. Blizzard removed the thing that allowed for it to happen.

@@Wyven Sure, i would love to discuss this over discord with you :)
Do you have a Discord Channel? If yes i couldn't find it
@@cenjo0 Yeah I do, if you go on my twitch channel (twitch.tv/wyvenn) there's a discord link, and then you can just DM me :)
can you please help me how to ( %1.Damage reduction )? something like this..
cant find it

omfg wyven you're so cute
No, you! XD
Great video, massive thank you :D
Please link Etrace, cannot find it anywhere on google :(
Etrace is a built in function on wow. You can just log in and type /etrace
However i believe older versions of wow dont have it like wotlk
