Changelog

Changes in OEVG/ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI, newest first. Entries summarize released behavior; development iterations and test notes belong in Docs/ and tests/.

Based on Dusk/ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI at 4391564 (2026-09-08). Earlier history is available upstream.

3.8.7 — 2026-11-08 — Unit frames and minimap buttons

• Add optional owner class colors for pet health bars, including targeted pets with identifiable owners.
• Add an option to remove the class-colored background behind your player name, including on the detached name frame.
• Apply Darkened and Golden UI tints to the Outfitter, TrinketMenu and Atlas-CFM minimap buttons.
• Preserve the Spellbook's original parchment and torn edges in Darkened and Golden UI.

3.8.6 — 2026-11-06 — Module fixes and native timers

• Prevent recursive merchant-click hooks when Buy Em All runs alongside another merchant addon.
• Keep the viewed world map unchanged when hovering the Turtle clock.
• Refresh reagent counts when conditional macros change spells, and apply Minimap Clean's hidden state to late addon buttons.
• Keep the dungeon-finder minimap button's size and position stable when dragging it with Enlarged Minimap enabled.
• Stop Sell Junk's completion check when sales stall, and refresh rarity borders/glows when previously uncached item data arrives.
• Use native ClassicAPI cooldown numbers when native countdowns are enabled, retaining the existing appearance and legacy fallback; remove unused static spell/debuff locale data.
• Use native target cast-bar animation and player countdown text where supported, and limit power/portrait styling updates to affected unit frames.
• Use native totem/control-alert timers where supported, and reduce repeated resource/map styling writes and chat-cache allocations.
• Keep swing-timer and cast-bar preview borders above their fills and match them to the selected UI theme.
• Remove AoE Loot and retire its saved setting. See the migration guide for AutoAreaLoot.

3.8.5 — 2026-11-06 — UI polish and initialization cleanup

• Replace the theme checkboxes with one UI: dropdown below Search: Default, Darkened or Golden, preserving existing choices.
• Add a version button beside Defaults in Advanced Options, opening a copyable Gitea project link.
• Match equipped-item comparison backgrounds to the source tooltip in Darkened UI.
• Preserve native mail, quest-log and NPC quest/gossip parchment colors and torn edges in both themes, including empty quest-log artwork. Restore Golden UI's darker NPC title strip.
• Keep item-rarity borders and formatted Golden titles consistent when windows update or are recolored again.
• Consolidate deferred initialization, batch duplicate delayed recolors and bound the texture-classification cache while preserving frame exclusions.

3.8.4 — 2026-11-06 — Action-bar proc highlights

• Add Proc & Reactive Spell Highlights (Action Bar, off): event-driven pale light-blue glows for supported spells and macros, with native pulsing animation where available. Central proc alerts remain with dedicated addons such as Proc Doc.

3.8.3 — 2026-11-05 — Personal Resource Display

• Replace Standalone Player Frame with Personal Resource Display: independent, movable and resizable copies of player health and power, leaving the original player frame intact. Existing health/power positions migrate.
• Add Hide Player Frame Resources to keep only the clean portrait and independently movable class-colored name. Hide Player Name now requires this option and also hides the raid group number. Resource hiding and the personal display can be used independently.
• Share healing predictions and Energy & Mana Tick timing with the copied bars, including resizing, and retain the active UI border palette.
• Show a small attached mana bar for druids using Personal Resource Display while shapeshifted.
• Remove Hide Player Portrait and retire its saved setting.
• Condense the changelog into release summaries, removing intermediate testing history.

3.8.2 — 2026-11-04 — Healing predictions and native API improvements

• Add Healing Predictions for player and target: incoming direct heals and upcoming HoT ticks, with Big Health/standalone support. Reuse compatible Puppeteer data when available; otherwise use an observed-heal estimator and vanilla HealComm. See prediction details and limitations.
• Use native ClassicAPI range subscriptions for Range Color, with balanced button subscriptions and an older-version fallback.
• Improve Energy & Mana Tick handling of power changes, mana-costing casts and regeneration timing; use native spark animation when available.
• Use ClassicAPI's macro icons and command parsing, retaining compatibility for legacy custom hints and other macro addons.
• Use native equipment comparisons where available, including full item links, paired equipment slots and stat differences; keep comparisons stable during Bagshui tooltip refreshes.
• Route health/power number updates separately and use native duration timers for swing/wand displays where supported.
• Remove redundant cast tracking and consolidate movement/startup helpers. Add a shared regression-test runner. See the cast tracking review.
• Prevent caster-bar icons showing through empty druid form slots. Clarify that Auto Stance enters forms; ClassicAPI Auto Cancel Form leaves them.

3.8.1 — 2026-11-04 — ClassicAPI baseline and legacy cleanup

• Require ClassicAPI 1.18.10+, with a startup check and update message for unsupported runtimes.
• Remove Auto Dismount and its unused support code in favor of ClassicAPI's settings; retain Auto Stance for entering required forms.
• Respect Always Show Action Bars for empty main/bonus-bar slots.
• Fix disappearing Big Health fills after health updates in standalone mode.
• Remove the unused debuff-timing library and legacy per-frame nameplate discovery; retain optional-mod and missing-data compatibility checks.

3.8 — 2026-11-04 — Player frames, movable bars and UI polish

• Add Standalone Player Frame, detaching the native portrait, name, health and power into movable pieces, with clean rounded artwork, a class-colored name and saved positions. Add Hide Player Portrait and standalone-only Hide Player Name.
• Split Big Health into independent player and target options, migrating existing settings. Standalone power sizing follows the player setting.
• Include action, pet, stance, XP and reputation bar movement in Reduced Actionbar Size. Ctrl+Shift+Alt dragging supports saved positions, reset and snapping to visible bars.
• Make cast-bar movement always available and remove its checkbox.
• Give Loss of Control Alert classic artwork and borders that follow the active UI mode.
• Preserve native quest/gossip parchment colors and torn edges in Golden/Darkened UI. Golden UI NPC name headers use opaque title artwork; player names retain class styling.
• Extend Modern Class Colors to name backgrounds. Leave TrinketMenu styling to TrinketMenu.
• Remove Debuff Timer and the three nameplate options to avoid overlapping dedicated addons. See alternatives and migration notes.

3.7.4 — 2026-11-03 — Advanced Options search

• Add case-insensitive search by option name, description, category and slider label, retaining unsaved changes while filtering.

3.7.3 — 2026-11-03 — Golden UI

• Add Golden UI, with configurable gold frame/border colors and brown title bars while retaining default text colors. Darkened UI takes precedence when both are selected.
• Share theme handling across native windows and supported addons, including aux/AuxCraft, Bagshui, Outfitter, VCB and RollFor. Preserve parchment, item icons, slot interiors and existing quality colors.
• Extend Item Rarity Borders to outgoing mail/TurtleMail attachments and both sides of trade windows, refreshing on item changes and clearing empty slots. Loot Quality remains specific to the loot window.
• Center Tooltip Details health text within its bar.

3.7.2 — 2026-11-02 — Loss of Control Alert, Totem Timers and movable cast bar

• Add Loss of Control Alert and Totem Timers, using ClassicAPI events with animation only while active. Both support modifier dragging and reset.
• Add Movable Cast Bar and independent movement for swing, wand and enemy cast bars, with saved positions.
• Link the Extras migration guide from the README.

3.7.1 — 2026-11-02 — Key-Down Casting removed

• Remove Key-Down Casting and its dependent Alt Self-Cast option in favor of ClassicAPI's native settings. Use /console ActionButtonUseKeyDown 1 for key-down activation and the native SELFCAST modified click for self-casting.

3.7 — 2026-11-02 — Extras modules built in

• Merge Dusk's Extras action-bar, chat, loot, macro, merchant, map, tooltip and abbreviated-name modules, preserving their saved choices. Warn when the separate Extras addon remains enabled.
• Leave raid frames, bag helpers and auction Alt-Buy to dedicated addons. See the module list.
• Improve XP text legibility with a shadow instead of an outline.

3.6 — 2026-11-02 — Map window, Transports button and Loot History

• Add Loot History, using ClassicAPI's stored group-roll results, and an OctoBus Transports button on the world map.
• Preserve map scale across reopening/reload and allow dragging from its title bar.

3.5 — 2026-11-01 — Swing Timer and Wand Timer

• Add classic-style main/off-hand swing timers, queued-attack colors and ranged/wand timing with Hunter wind-up indication, based on brues-code/pfUI.

3.4 — 2026-11-01 — Hide Pet Unit Frame and XP numbers

• Add Hide Pet Unit Frame and show current/required XP, percentage and rested bonus on hover.

3.3 — 2026-11-01 — World map colors and per-frame checks

• Correct class colors for packed world-map raid icons and battleground teammates.
• Limit map, target-of-target portrait and enlarged-minimap checks to relevant visibility/update intervals.

3.2 — 2026-11-01 — Performance

• Bound and expire the shared player cache, refresh sighting ages and avoid redundant GUID/guild lookups. See cache details.
• Throttle Range Color checks and retain Blizzard's native out-of-range hotkey coloring.

3.1 — 2026-10-31 — ClassicAPI review and tidy-up

• Prevent duplicate Debuff Timer countdown text with ClassicAPI's native countdown enabled.
• Refresh feature documentation, compatibility notes and repository ignore rules.

3.0 — 2026-10-30 — OEVG customization
