    Great addon i've been using since BC i think, however i have problems with the new cataclysm version:

    1) How do i disable WSG arrow? It makes my FPS crawl (i have a pretty powerful rig, but it goes from 60fps to 15fps when arrow appears)

    2) How to disable timer on BG start? There is already a blizzard timer and Alar timer sometimes is wrong about the time...

    Please help me, Thanks!

    This addon has been rewritten from scratch. I commit to alpha state to allow for testing but sometimes alphas are broken (in this case, a call to a debug only function was left in, It was working on my PC but obviously not on yours). If you thing you coud use it you are welcome to testing , too. I release beta once a day, but I commit to alpha stage bugix as soon as i do them. Your help is truly appreciated

    actually seems to be a bit broken - no functionality at all - might be due to conflict with other addons?

    2 errors:
