Stealth Alerter detects if someone near you uses a stealth ability, and logs a message in your chat window. I originally wrote this AddOn in 2009, because a very annoying Rogue named Ýes used to hang out in Wintergrasp on the Shu'halo server where people were fishing. I've also found it useful in raids, battlegrounds and arenas.
The following actions are detected: Camouflage (Hunter), Draenic Invisibility Potion, Greater Invisibility (Mage), Invisibility (Mage), Invisibility Potion, Lesser Invisibility Potion, Potion of Minor Invisibility, Potion of Trivial Invisibility, Prowl (Druid), Shadowmeld (Night Elf), Shroud of Concealment (Rogue), Stealth (Rogue), Stealthman 54, and Vanish (Rogue).
"/sal on" enables Stealth Alerter and "/sal off" disables it. "/sal" while enabled lists all options and settings.
Any chance you are going to update Stealth Alerter to Shadowlands? Getting a lot of in-game errors now. Had to disable.

Can you copy and paste the LUA errors? I am not getting any and the currrent version of Stealth Alerter has been working fine for me.
Any chance we'll a Classic version?

I'm not playing WoW Classic and I don't have the time anymore, sorry!
In reply to SouthStyl3rz:
I wish spy would add a stealth alert only mode. You should ask for one too!
Is there a mod like this mod that is up to date? I don't know how to mod in the least or I wouldn't be here, so I cannot update this myself. Having out of date mods has proven to be the cause of multiple glitches including the now infamous loading bar glitch. So I'm making sure to replace any out of date mod a.s.a.p.

In reply to Suppression_Curse:
Would it be possible to config which alerts we want?
i.e. I don't care about invisibility or Rogue vanish, so I'd like to disable those, etc.
Fantastic addon btw!
It's possible, but I just don't have the time right now. The spell names are pretty obvious if you look at the LUA code, you could just delete the ones you don't want to see.
I really hope this gets updated for Legion. It's a great must have addon and I already miss it.
I just release 0.99.25 for Legion. Please let me know if you noticed any missing stealth or invisibility spells. I have not had time to go through all new Legion spells.
Thanks, I'm glad you find it useful!
I wanted to tell you that this AddOn, has been a part of my life since 2012. I have never regretted it once. Others are mystified when I announce in chat that someones sneaking around the AH, most likely target? The Auctioneers, of course. They will whisper me to ask how I know this, and I tell them about your AddOn. Thank you for saving my butt on numerous ocassions. I always wait before dismounting now. especially if I'm on a PVP Realm, or marked for PVP. High Fives and Kudos are much deserved!
Thank you for asking this question. I assumed it was close nearby, at least within range. Where if the enemy was labeled, it would change to aggro colors. Nice to get a better idea of the radius.
This is a great idea. Only question I really have is the area of effect. Your description states "someone near you". what size radius are we talking? Any light on this would be a great help. Thank you.
The AddOn just looks for combat log events, so its range is the same as the combat log range. I haven't found a definitive answer, but various sources I found with Google say it's 200 yards.
I sent you the only way to do faction checks on pandaren by GUID that I know of... didn't think here was a good place for pasting code and what not
Thanks Billtopia, this actually looks pretty straight forward. I'll give it a try when I have a chance.
Now only Pandaren show up in red lol
