I started Wrath with the intention of dumping all Rock and Ace2 addons, but quickly realized that there are too many good Ace2 addons without suitable replacements. I think I managed to kick all the Rock ones though :)
Ace2 is still stable and working in wrath for now. If you seriously need to not load that extra 1 MB of libraries I suggest you seek professional mental help.
Is it possible to get mouseover tooltips for the bars shown on the cooldown monitor? If I can get a tooltip object then I can add lines to it, but I don't know anything about the countdown-bar-type library that oRA uses to show the bars.
(Trying to debug why some players are showing up on the monitor at all. Players with rez spells, obviously, but then we get things like mages and DKs and hunters showing up with 20 and 30 minute cooldowns.)
Ok so I got an odd problem. Since the patch both oRA2 MT list and x-perl do not update the bosses health correctly. My raid leader last night was calling out health of the bosses and it would always be like 20-50% lower then what these two addons showed. The odd part is the addons would update once I clicked on the boss. I cleared my wtf's and still no joy.
Ora2 seems to be having a similar problem to what Recount was having, other peoples clients are seeing a Hunter's FD as a real death and alerting a MT death, since we use a Hunter as the main assist and give them an ora2 frame, is there any way to work around this?

It appears that the combatlog reports FD as actual death to anybody but self. This actually makes a lot of sense because it prevents SCTs to reveal FDs as fake to others.
The way to fix the problem in raids is to UnitIsFeignDeath() on the raid unit (if that's the victim) before reporting it as death when a death event comes in.
Well i have few questions that I can't figure out myself:
a) how can I check if all in my raid have ora installed? If I click check version I get strange results, for some people it shows "NA" and I'm 100% certain they have it....durability check does the same thing
b) reagent check doesn't show all reagents...it show Symbol of Divinity but nit Symbol of kings which is at my opinion more important. However it works if I query by name. Raid members didn't disable reagent check

Ty in advance.
I have encountered this problem with people having an older Ora2 than i had. They could see me in the version check, but i couldn't.

I have no idea what CandyBar or PaintChips are, but if PaintChips is supposed to be optional, it shouldn't be triggering errors.
Would I be allowed to request or write and provide a modification to oRA2 which provided an API for other addons to request item checks, durability, resistance, etc?
I could write a generic addon to provide the functionality and force all raiders to install it but they are already forced to install oRA2 and it nearly has what is required other than being able to read these values from another addon.
I've noticed over the last few builds that the Shaman Ankh is not showing up on the raid cooldowns in oRA2.
It would also be really nice to have the oRA2 version check have an option to whisper all users who are not up to date with the most recent version of the mod in the raid telling them to go update.

Those "omg ur not usin teh highest revision" whispers are obnoxious. There are many reasons why someone might not have the "latest version"; for example, if the last 42 revisions have been localization updates for locales I don't play in, why do I need to waste time and bandwidth downloading them? If an update only affects a part of the addon I don't use (like player targets) why do I need to download it? Spamming people with whispers "reminding" them that they don't have the latest revision is annoying, and promotes mindless spam updating of the kind that led to the old WowAce's collapse.
You being able to see who has a lower revision is enough. If you notice that someone hasn't updated in a month, or you know there was an important update, or if someone is causing issues by having an older version, then ask them to update. It's not Threat-1.0. If a French player doesn't have the latest revision of the Korean translations, it doesn't screw up the addon for everyone. It's not critical. Let people handle their own files on their own computer.

I've also been looking for something else, but doesn't really seem to be anything out there comparable
Because if I find something that allows me to replace oRA2, then I won't have any Ace2 addons and can stop loading that extra 1mb :P.

Correct they are independant
