Hi,
seems like I have a problem since last update. It happened also to add some addons exaclty in the same day.
I reinstalled all addons that I installed that day, but seems like the problem is not solved.
Any ideea what is wrong?
Is there something I need to do with WTF config? Or something like this?
The only new addons I've installed were: SCT, minimap button bag, metamap.
Please tell me what I have to delete and where is located, regarding the WTF config, to allow reinstalling the addons fix the problem.
I have also a problem with sound, wich happen to stop if I get low fps at some point.
And one more problem: when i hit esc and select interface menu from wow default options, I get automatically the option with showing the helm enabled.
Any help apreciated.
possible to be the momory leak problem caused by matamap+mmb.
I've searched a little the internet, and found out that is a memory leak problem that can cause to have alot of fps spikes.
I'll test it later.
i tryed metamap as i;ve been having issues for a verry long time with cartographer.
now, I tryed it again and problems gone. Happy to come back to Cartographer as some little functionality is much better thougth with it. Metamap is anoying from many points of view.
My problem still there. It is much better since I gave up metamap.
MMB alone without metamap is great, no ptoblems at all.
But the lag spikes are strange, also happening when someone entering leaving raid. I get 10 seconds like 65 fps, then at once 3 seconds i get 10-15 fps. The biggest problem is that even if I stay in one place, without moving and not having any mobs in my sight, I still get lag spikes. Checked also the computer for spyware/viruses, checked the cpu usage, and only one that uses cpu is WOW. So there must be a problem with wow addons. Possible to be grid addon, but I need to test it much more.

Regarding Grid, are you using any plug-ins or just the base Grid add-on. As Xinhuan stated MMB is not maintained anymore. I would simple dump MMB. Most MiniMap buttons can simply removed via your various mods config menus and the mods themselves can opened via /command (usually /Name of mod config or /Name of mod options). Some mods have FuBar plug-ins written for them so you can move the buttons to FuBar if you need quick access.
i'm using also fubar buttons(icon only, without text).
the single reason for using MBB is that the buttons that i don't have enough space to place on fubar, cannot be correctly moved around a square minimap, and is looks verry anoying having different size buttons around the quare map. Also alot of addons don;t have support for moving their buttons around a square minimap, acting like circle even with a square minimap. Other thing that no addon can do is resize the button that is attached to the minimap.
Using command lines is extreemly anoying, as not all addons work with /addon_name show [or] hide, or /addon_name config
The point here is to find what makes lag spikes. Tested without MBB, and same result. The only improvement until now is removing metamap.
Thx for the sugestions, but I need some addons for a reason. If I can;t find a square minimap that can move/resize addon minimap buttons, I will use MBB or an alternative. Was easy to replace metamap with cartographer, but for minimap buttons I need an alternative.
I use only the base addon from Grid. Only 1 folder named Grid in my Interface/Addons
If you really need to move MiniMap buttons around then you can use something like FluidFrames or Visor2 to move MiniMap buttons. You also need this command:
Copy and past the /command into your ChatEdit box, hover over the button in question and hit Enter. The button name will be printed in ChatFrame1. Then using either of the two mods I mentioned you can move the button in question. You can also use that command in a macro and keybind it. Then you just need to hover the cursor over the button and hit the keybind.
Regarding needing all of the MiniMap buttons. I one time used to have about 200 AddOns (many where libraries of one form or another) and my MiniMap used to look like a teenager during puberty (zits a plenty). However I was able to clean it up so I had exactly four MiniMap buttons. Even now with my current UI (with no FuBar installed) I have four MiniMap buttons (including tracking button). Chances are likely that you can replace those mods that insist on having MiniMap buttons with ones that don't. The MiniMap mods I have used in the last 9 months, oMap (and its offspring) and Chinchilla; generally force most mods to adhere to the square shape. Those that refused to play nice, got replaced and the replacements normally turned out to be better mods anyway. The only mods that I have ever encountered that absolutely refused to allow its MiniMap button moved by other means was CT_RaidAssist. However I simply replaced CT_RA with oRA once oRA was stable enough to use. My RL never noticed the difference and I ended moving the guild to using oRA.
If my memory is correct, Visor2 can also resize MiniMap buttons as well. Get the Visor2_GUI front end for a more friendly face

Curse PremiumMetamap isn't hosted on wowace, so you might want to contact the author about any issues you find from the location you downloaded it from.

Now that is what I call an answer.
Thx alot for all the information. You convinced me.
:)
I'll try Visor 2 as soon as possible.
