Blizzard Raid Frames - Bigger Buffs

Bigger Buffs
Tweaks Blizzard's raid frames buffs, mostly aimed at healing.
- Show more than 3;
- Change size;
- Split rows;
- Show hidden buffs, hide buffs.
Why would you stick to default frames? Ease of configuration and predictability are some of the pros. You don't need to add a list of "debuffs to watch" on every raid tier.
Options: /bigger.
Important
-
Due to limitations, if someone joins the raid while in combat, your raid frames WILL be broken. In order to alleviate that, installing the Raid Antidote is mandatory.
-
In order to update changed settings, change between two raid profiles while out of combat.
Shadowlands and Classic
This addon seems to work fine on Shadowlands Beta as of now. Classic has also been reported as fine, but I won't be releasing a "Classic Package" unless I test it.

- Flat texture pack for Blizz RaidFrames. Put those files in <wow>/Interface/raidframes (where did I find this? I dont know)
9.0 - with the recent Backdrop UI changes (https://github.com/Stanzilla/WoWUIBugs/wiki/9.0.1-Consolidated-UI-Changes#backdrop-system-changes) the recently-created configuration UI is broken until I can invest some time on fixing it. I'm not sure if that change already comes with pre-patch (probably yes)
When changing the buff size for the party frames, it is also changing the size of the personal buffs on the player resource bar as well as the buffs shown above the nameplates resulting in large black boxes.
Is there a way to only change the icon size of the buffs shown on the player raid frames?
I love the addon, but the "Additional Buffs" section resets every I reload or log out. Is there a way to make it stay?
In reply to supafongboon:
I have created the UI this week and tested it like a chimp, fix incoming soon
I love this addon. Great work.
Is there any way to add the same function for debuffs ? Debuffs are currently limited to 2-3 on default raid frames and it can be a problem sometimes.
I tried BigDebuffs bit its really buggy and fails to show more than 2 debuffs as well.
Keep up the good work thanks a lot
Love the addon, thank you for this,
Are there plans to upgrade to gameversion 8.3.0.
I still have some ui problems because of this addon. That force me to reload my ui during high mythic + runs.
In reply to Skayo010:
you probably also need "Raid Frame Antidote" (https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/blizzard-raid-interface-antidote) or frames may glitch. I could probably just pack it along in a future version since it is quite mandatory
In reply to repimbas:
That would be great, i downloaded it and so far so good.
Keep up the good work!
When I use this addon with friendly plates ON(Elvui used for enemy NamePlates) in raid i get this spam.

Thank you for this great addon!
I still need some help! I can no longer see Spring Blossoms, Grove Tending or Cultivation as rdruid. I tried to play around with the lua but it shows like this:
local MY_ADDITIONAL_BUFFS = {
"Cultivation",
"Spring Blossoms",
"Grove Tending",
"Light's Grace"
}
local BANNED_BUFFS = {
[210320] = true, -- Devotion Aura
[303698] = true -- Luminous Jellyweed
}
BiggerBuffs_CooldownsData = {
MY_ADDITIONAL_BUFFS = MY_ADDITIONAL_BUFFS,
BANNED_BUFFS = BANNED_BUFFS
}
How do I add them again, so I can see all my hots?
In reply to bjornebekk:
This is a "bug" with 8.2.5 I'm still to have a look. Blizzard probably has changed something the addon relies on
In reply to repimbas:
Thank you very much for your answer! Would be GREATLY appreciated if you had a look into it, and made it so I can see the hots again.
In reply to bjornebekk:
Updated, "Should" be working.
OBS: Check if your curse client is actually updating the addon, it might block it saying it is a "developing working copy".
In reply to repimbas:
Its working again, the new update was ready on the twitch client! Thank you so much, appriciate it!
Can you release the addon for version 1.13.2 too? I've been using it on wow classic and seems to work perfectly fine.
I dont want ANY buffs, only DEBUFFS. Also Filtering would be a neat function to add.
In reply to moodyfied:
If you are a PVP player BigDebuffs (addon) is probably what you want
can anyone tell me how to hide buffs that I don't want with CooldownsData.lua? lets say if I want Regrowth hidden
In reply to porkyya:
Yeah, find out the spellID and follow the pattern... Needs a reload to get the changes.
There might be many spellIDs for a single spell, I think tinytooltip can show the spellIDs in case you have been unlucky.
Sorry for not having a proper UI.
The portion of FrameXML code which this addon hooks to has seen some changes on 8.2.5 -- seems mostly for performance reasons. I have not seen issues in game, as Blizz seems to have added compatibility hooks.
