Gork Sez Stop Warner

If you use this addon, you deserve the constant flashing screen. Gork is making you pay.

To clear up red border, type:

/script WindowSetShowing( "ScreenFlashWindow", false )

into your chat box. That finally fixed it for me. (After I unloaded the mod and still had the red border around window.)

If you find justice in using a visual aid mod to counter another player, I pity your competitive handicap.

After reading the comments for this addon and the problems people have been seeing with it, I decided to download it so that I could test it and see if I could find the problem. I installed the addon and had a friend cast Gork Sez Stop on me, and after the debuff wore off I saw that the screen continued to flash, and nothing you did in game would make it stop.

I then looked at the code and found that the bug is being caused because the mod author did not ever set one of his control booleans back to false. The red screen flashing is actually something that is built into the Warhammer API and all this addon does is tells the game to start the flashing. The problem comes in with the fact that the addon never tells the game to stop flashing.

This can easily be fixed by opening the addons GorkSezStopWarner.lua file inside of a text editor. Once open locate the GorkSezStopWarner.ScanDebuffs function. Under the line that reads:
"effects = GetBuffs(GameData.BuffTargetType.SELF);"

Add the following line:
found = false;

That is it, that is all it takes to fix this addon and get rid of the red flashing on your screen. When you next login to the game the flashing should be gone. If it is not then kick off any ability that places a buff on your character in order to get the game to scan your buffs.

P.S.
If you want to disable the Paul Barnett sound clip locate the following line of code:

PlaySound(999); -- Paul Barnett is watching you !

You can the either delete the line or just comment it out by adding -- infront of it.

Just to clarify what I was saying so there is no confusion, this is what the beginning of the GorkSezStopWarner.ScanDebuffs function should look like after making the change.

function GorkSezStopWarner.ScanDebuffs()

effects = GetBuffs(GameData.BuffTargetType.SELF);
found = false;

:/ got the red edge screen bug too how can i remove it i dont want to reinstall the game

What this addon really needs (besides a serious update) is a slash command to remove the "effects" manually, in case they get stuck.

The addon worked when I got GSS on me but it then borked up after that. Continued to relay verbal warning, flash screen red, and display errors even after the hex had been removed.

I uninstalled the addon, still have Red border. reinstalled it, did not solve the problem.

Is there any way to fix this beside nuking all your settings?

I was hit by the red edged screen bug. Red edged screen persisting even after death, relog, restart of computer. Removing the addon didn't work. Removing Curse didn't help, going into all the folders and removing everything curse put in there that stuck around even after uninstall didn't work. I had to reload the entire friggin game to get rid of the bug. Thanks.

Seriously, shamans are overpowered as it is compared to the Archmages. Having this mod makes it fair. Deal with it.

I'm with all the others on this one. I play a Shaman as well, and seeing this addon is terrible. I agree that Curse should definitely remove this when possible. I'm wondering why it hasn't been removed yet?

Remove this addon. This is horrible. Bad idea to weaken the Shaman by nerfing one of their best abilities. Moda like this do not need to exist where it basically "Cheats" where it makes you think you are a good player when you are not. Again, please delete this addon.

I hope Curse remove this addon and Mythic ban anyone who uses it. Pathetic, really. Way to ruin the game.

Yeah this kinda mod is asking for a closed UI. I mean, I want a mod that gives me instant kills too. If your too stupid to see a big red stop hand on your buffs you deserve to die. Learn how to play on your own not with a mod that saves your life. It's PvP.

How can i get normal screen i used this shiet once and now i have whole screen red i uninstaled it and removed all addons and still whole screen is fkn red!

Go to your install path, then find the users/interface folder and rename it (not the normal interface folder for your addons). You'll lose some settings, but it clears up crap that addons leave behind.

This addon goes a bit far I would think. Stuff like this will get the API nerfed.

Yep same here, the Red tinge is constantly on and reloging / uninstalling the add-on doesn't correct it, anyone any ideas how I can go back to a normal screen?

Same here with the bug - it persists endlessly even after death/respawn etc. I had to remove and relog.

I had the same bug just that it persists after relogging and even after deleting the addon I still have the red alert border constantly showing. Very annoying :(
