BG Defender
Last Updated: Nov 26, 2016 Game Version: 7.1.0
BG Defender (Based on AB Defender) gives you a little movable window with buttons to announce the number of incoming enemies at the base you're defending in most battlegrounds. There are also buttons to call for help or announce the base you're defending is safe. BG Defender will automatically pop up when entering a battleground and close after you leave.
/bgd - to show/hide window
/bgd help - to show all commands
AB Defender was created by Riel Kil'Jaeden GER EU, based on FaraFrames by Farang.
Pls an update ! =)
Would love to see this updated for legion, really love this in pvp bgs!
The Brawl: Arathi Blizzard not working too.
I think the only way to solve this, is to have a dropdown or button for each place.
so this addon is basically dead now ?
any note on deepwind and silvershard mine ?
Any word on when this addon will be fixed? Very hard to play a flag babysitter without this addon.
Since Deepwind Gorge and Silvershard Mines are not supported anymore. Would it be possible to make panel that opens up just like bg defender but when you zone into Deepwind Gorge and Silvershard Mines, it just has a few buttons that macro into chat saying top 1, top 2, top 3, and bottom 1, bottom 2, bottom 3, also for Mid,
Doesn't seem to work on Deepwind Gorge or Silvershard Mines
Since patch 7.1 Deepwind Gorge and Silvershard Mines are not supported anymore. I've just uploaded an update that takes care of the errors you were getting in those two battlegrounds.
Do you have any plan to support them? I absolutely love BG Defender, and it's a shame that it isn't available in the MoP instances, which I reckon are the best they've ever designed.
not working anymore
An update is in the works. I haven't done much testing of it so if there are any problems with it let me know.
One of my favorite addons. Hoping for an update soon!
New patch out, isn't working in bgs..an update would be awesome! :) #oneofmyfavaddons
can't Q for a battleground with your addon active. says it does something that is only reserved for the blizzard UI, or something like that.
As far as I can tell it's still working like it always has. It's probably another addon that's causing the issue. You can try disabling all other addons and then enable them one at a time until you find the culprit.
I can't see how this addon could cause that issue. All output to the chat frame is done with the function "AddMessage" which sets the colour for every message and is automatically reset to white after each call.
If you call it like this...
DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("test", 1, 0, 0)
it will output "test" in red and if you call it like this...
DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("test")
it will output "test" in the default colour, white.
Hi, is it possible to add in a function to broadcast how many enemys are there in an area as opposed to how many are coming (for a BG Scout)?
any chance to see a support for that BG that came with MOP ?
The only BG from MoP that isn't suppoted is Temple of Kotmogu. I don't think it's really that useful to be able to call incomming in that BG.
