  • About FuBar_WintergraspFu
  •  

This addon displays the time until the next Wintergrasp battle in FuBar.

The time can be updated from three sources:

  • In the Wintergrasp zone, the countdown is set from the countdown there.
  • If you talk to the NPC by the portal in Dalaran, the countdown is set from the time given.
  • If some guildmember who is running this addon does the above, the countdown is sent to all guild members with the addon.


If the addon does not know the time of the next battle but knows the start time for one of the previous 3 battles, it can provide a guess for when the next battle will start. Two times are displayed, based on victory in 15 mins and victory in 30 mins; the real time will hopefully be somewhere in between those. If you don't want this, turn it off under options.


New features in 1.1

Now has localizations for deDE, frFR, koKR, zhTW and ruRU. Now will attempt to accept synchronization from other addons - please let me know if it works or doesn't work.



In need of assistance

These are the strings in need of localization. Please post your language version of the strings and I'll add them and make a 1.1 beta version :)

The text displayed in Wintergrasp for time until next battle:

  • "Next Battle: (%d):(%d%d):(%d%d)$"


The texts from and names for the NPCs in Dalaran:

  • "The next battle begins in (%d):(%d*):(%d*)%."
  • "Arcanist Braedin"
  • "Magister Surdiel"
  • "The battle for control of Wintergrasp will begin in (%d*) minute"
  • "The battle for control of Wintergrasp will begin in (%d*) hour"


Optional, just for messages from the addon:

  • "Show estimate"
  • "Show best estimate when exact time is not available."
  • "Active"
  • "Unknown"
  • "WG"
  • "WgFu: New estimated start at "
  • "h", "m", "s" (short for hour, minute, seconds)


"WG", "WgFu: New estimated start at ", "h", "m", "s" are new strings

    If there's any way you can sync with WinterTime, it seems to almost always be slightly more accurate (maybe because of more users broadcasting).

    Will this be updated for 3.1, where it could grab the time from the new api that blizz has added. I know there are others addons that do this, but as this is a fubar fu it really nice to keep that info with all my other fu's

    Reply Report Permalink
  • Yeah, with the new WG API added in 3.1 it should be able to grab the data directly from Blizzard. I like this mod and would love to see that integrated into it, hopefully soon!

    Thanks

  • Agree'd.
    I really like having it on my Fubar, so it would be very useful to have it update more often with the correct time for WG.

  • Excellent Add-on, sync is a nice option... yes it keeps great time, i lose time from what it says and blizz does.... Could we get a right click the bar to add the timer's count down time to chat....kind of like LocationFu does to the location info in chat, area and cords. As I set up and call out the raids for Wintergrasp that would help in trade chat....

    Thanx again!

    Thanks a lot for your addon.

    I was kinda facing a similiar problem as esullivan. Although, thanks to your addon, I knew when the next battle will be, I still missed many because I was watching a movie or doing some stuff on the desktop. So I decided to write a small utility that plays an alarm 10 minutes before the next wintergrasp.
    If anyone is interested you can find download link (for binaries and source) and instructions on how to install/use here: http://madcowstudios.wordpress.com/wintergrasp-timer/
    Hope this helps.

  • Doesn't keep time well, always off. Even if I stay logged in, after 20 mins for so it will be off by 10 secs or so (not a huge deal but still)

    Also are there plans to make improvements? Maybe an alarm of some kind? At 5 minutes or so, a message.

    It keeps time too well; blizzards time drifts by something close to 1 second every 40; I'm going to take that into account at some point. The weird thing will be this addon showing something like 2 hours 3 minutes till next game when blizzard's ui shows 2 hours. But 2 hours 3 minutes will be the correct time.

  • Thanks for this Awesome addon!

    only 1 request: Can u please add the option to turn off the "seconds" display? Its very annoying to have something constantly ticking on my screen.

    you must replace
    ["The next battle begins in (%d):(%d*):(%d*)%."] = "Следующая битва начинается через (%d):(%d%d):(%d%d)%.",
    with
    ["The next battle begins in (%d):(%d*):(%d*)%."] = "Следующая битва начнется через (%d*):(%d*):(%d*)",
    for correct work

    Would be really nifty with an announce to guild option :)

    I.E. "[Guild]: Wintergrasp starts in xx:xx:xx"
