I'm always happy to take suggestions for SBF. Since 3.1 is in development, now is a good time to throw them my way. I am also interested in thoughts for cleaning up the options GUI, because it's pretty obtuse in places

Leave comments here, IM me, or email - satrina@evilempireguild.org. Whatever you prefer.

(Again, there are comment places at WoWInterface and Curse for SBF, but I tend to be here more often)

well sorta a stupid Q, but if a new version comes out do you upload it directly at all the places? (like your HP/curse etc) or is it liek first day is your HP second day is curse?, i mean to be sure to get the latest version, for example when 3.1 will hit, where to go?

wherever satrina uploads it he'll probably mention it here and update the link here in the forums so don't worry about running around looking on each of the interface sites, and instead just come here and you'll find it from the source.

I dont know if its me but before debuffs used to automatically go into buff frame 2 and now they do but often i get wierd errors like riptide showing up making it not easy to track the debuffs i have. It is probably just a my own error.

Im also wondering if its possible to get buffs to go infront of action bars when active, thought of doing it for S&B procs though just setting it up in MSCT is probably alot more beneficial or over charachter.

Another snippet is there was this lovely option saying it would warn when buff expiry was going to happen yet I recieved no warnings.

Probably all due to me messing up but im sure someone must be as dumb as me..

Baronen:
Short version: You get beta releases of SBF at WoWInterface.

Long version: 3.1 will go into a beta release when I feel it's ready to be given out publicly. When I do that, I create a separate project (which will be called "SBF 3.1 Beta") on WoWInterface. I don't put beta releases on Curse because I don't like their feedback/ticket system. Between WoWInterface and email feedback, it's been plenty fine. Typically, SBF goes through 6-12 beta releases, one every day or three usually, before I deem it good enough for release. At that point I put the new version into the Satrina Buff Frames 3 project on WoWInterface, get the beta project deleted, and upload it as a release version on Curse.

There are about 25-30 people that regularly download it and test the hell out of it with detailed feedback and comments, and probably 4 to 5 times that many who are "light users" that don't get deeply into filters and such, so it just works for them without problem and I never hear from them. The majority of users wait for the release version.

And I'll announce in the usual places when the beta goes up.

Nicki:
- What is Riptide supposed to show up as - a buff or debuff?

- If you put buffs in front of action bars, you wouldn't be able to click the buttons with a mouse (not that you'd probably do that anyway!) Being able to set the z-order (which frames appear above or below other frames) is coming. MSBT does a good job of showing the SnB procs for sure, but I prefer to make SnB and Revenge Glyph buffs visible like this: http://evilempireguild.org/SBF/images/SBFExample.jpg

- For buff expiry, keep in mind that it's per frame. If you set expiry settings for a frame 3 that you've created, they will not do anything for buffs in frame 1
