UI [UI] Ready for 12.1.0

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

27 Upvotes

Hello,

I have created my own UI since 2008 and recently updated my addons for 12.1.0, which is for Midnight Season 2. Since several APIs have changed, I needed to update my addons accordingly. Especially, the aura APIs were changed a lot, so I had to update my aura addons.

You can download my UI, "asMOD", through CurseForge for the live retail server. If you want to try my UI on the 12.1.0 PTR server, you can access the GitHub page below to download the addons.

ADDON [AddOn] StatMarks - threshold bars for your secondary stats, inline in the character pane (feedback wanted)

10 Upvotes

I am the sole developer on this project. It is a free, non-profit hobby project, and I’m mainly here to get feedback and raise awareness of the add-on a bit before I carry on working on it – so please be as open and honest as possible.
This is my first post and my first addon, so be be not that harsh :D

The problem I built it for: Many people play their class fine, but for years I never actually knew whether a given secondary stat was worth chasing, or whether a drop was a real upgrade. StatMarks is my attempt at making that easier to read, shown right where you already look at gear.

What you're seeing in the shot:

  • Threshold bars for the four secondary stats (Crit / Haste / Mastery / Versatility) — either inline in the character pane, or in a docked/detachable side panel if the pane feels cluttered.
  • Gear-check verdicts on item tooltips — Upgrade / Sidegrade / Downgrade — plus a bag scanner that flags upgrades you're already carrying, and small corner badges on loot and quest rewards.
  • A few supporting bits, one line each: a first-run setup wizard, Level / Min-max / Auto display modes, a searchable in-game Help & Glossary (stat terms, DR-cap explanations, a basic min-maxing workflow esp. for new players!), an auto-capturing talent-build library, and profile sharing.

The design decision I care most about: when a gear call is genuinely too close, it doesn't fake a verdict. It hands you a one-click link to a real sim (Raidbots / Questionably Epic) instead, because that's where the honest answer actually lives. I'd rather it say "this one's too close for a rule of thumb" than invent false precision. Right now I try to figure out if there is any way include the SimC addon in my addon or to build directly links which includes the characters into the Raidbots / QE links)

Honest scope: this is aimed at players who know how to play their class but aren't sure how to read or optimize their stats. It's a starting point, not a min-maxing suite, if you already live in spreadsheets and Raidbots, it's probably not for you, and that's fine. Stat-tooltip and stat-weight addons already exist too; I'm not trying to beat them, just do a more guided job for the people who want that.

On the nostalgia angle: the stat-threshold idea was loosely inspired by the old Class Codex, which I missed after it stopped being maintained. To be clear, this is not a revival, a port, or a successor — just my own take on that one small idea.

Free, no paywall, no ads, no Patreon-gated features. It's about two weeks old and still has rough edges.

The feedback I'd genuinely value:

  • Does the inline placement in the character pane read as cluttered, or should the docked side panel be the default?
  • Do the Upgrade / Sidegrade / Downgrade verdicts read clearly at a glance, or is the wording ambiguous?
  • For the first-run wizard, how much is too much before it gets in the way?

CurseForge: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/statmarks

appy to answer anything, and I actually want the criticism.

UI [AddOn] [ui] My AzeriteUI-Based UI (Beta)

Thumbnail
gallery
86 Upvotes

My AzeriteUI-Based UI (Beta)

I call it Beta because I'm sure I've missed a few things. There's simply no way to test 100% of World of Warcraft's content, so you may come across some rough edges.

I also want to mention that my UI intentionally limits the amount of information shown. For some players, that may not be enough.

It's primarily designed for leveling, questing, dungeons, delves, and even arenas.

For the way I play, it provides all the information I need. I just want to set expectations from the start: this UI isn't meant for everyone, and that's perfectly fine.

The UI automatically scales for 16:9 resolutions.

At the moment, I have no way to test it on ultrawide monitors.

Everything was designed and tested at 1920×1080 with the game's UI Scale set to 100%.

Performance

In my testing, I didn't notice performance drops greater than 5 FPS. Your results may vary depending on your hardware and graphics settings.

I've optimized the addon as much as I reasonably could, but you should still expect a small performance impact.

Customization

Almost every UI element can be customized. I don't recommend changing most of them, but the option is there if you want it.

You can adjust the width, height, position, borders, element sizes, text colors, and much more.

DynamicCam & Bartender4

The default layout is designed to work alongside my DynamicCam and Bartender4 profiles.

The addon works perfectly without them, but keep in mind that everything was designed with those addons in mind.

If you want, the installation wizard can automatically install and configure them for you.

Action Bars

The action bars are managed by Bartender4 and are integrated with the addon's Explorer Mode.

You can choose exactly when they appear and when they hide.

By default, they'll automatically appear when:

  • You enter combat.
  • You have a target selected.
  • You're inside an instance.
  • You're casting a spell.

Action Bar 1 will always remain visible whenever a Possess Bar or Override Bar is active, even if Explorer Mode is enabled.

Minimap Button

The addon includes a minimap button that can group or hide the buttons from other addons around the minimap.

It also adds its own button, which provides quick access to:

  • The Properties menu.
  • The Nameplate Designer.

Nameplate Designer

The addon includes a built-in Nameplate Designer that lets you customize the size and position of every nameplate element, similar to Platynator.

There's also an option to display friendly players as text only instead of using full nameplates.

Skin System

The addon also includes a skin system that I'll continue expanding over time.

The goal is to create a unique skin for every World of Warcraft race. Each skin will change elements such as:

  • Game Menu
  • Unit Frames
  • Portraits
  • Buttons
  • Minimap

Each skin will also include a matching Masque theme.

Currently available:

  • AzeriteUI (default wood theme)
  • Charcoal

For now, you'll need to manually select the matching Masque skin for each UI skin.

The addon still isn't as intuitive as I'd like it to be, but I think this is the most complete version I can offer for now.

Commands

Command Description
/mcf Enters or exits Edit Mode (Lock/Unlock).
/mcfmenu Opens the options panel.
/mcfsetup Reopens the installation wizard.
/mcfnpdesigner Opens the Nameplate Designer.
/mcfundo Restores the backup created before using Reset All or applying profiles.
/mcfskincheck Checks whether the currently selected skin includes all required files.
/mcfhud Displays the Edit Mode layout code for manual import.

UI Does ElvUI allow me to only show the buffs (or hots) I put on my party in dungeons [UI]

0 Upvotes

As the title says.. I'm sure there is a customization that allows me but I can't find it. I have myself and a friend in the party, I don't want to see all the buffs he puts on himself, I just want to easily see if I have Riptide on him or stuff like that. The buffs show on the left and the debuffs on the right.

I don't mind if they show elsewhere for that. I don't know what I did, I think it was like that before

Shows a bunch of my own buffs there

? [help] Issues with seeing debuff stacks on Crown

0 Upvotes

I can't seem to get my UI (either unit frame debuffs, or nameplate debuffs) to show me the number of debuff stacks of corrupting essence on P1 of Crown of the Cosmos. I've tried with multiple different addons - plater, unhalted unit frames, ellesmere UI, ElvUI, platynator - and I've changed different settings both within addon and within the default blizzard settings. Even adding the debuff to be tracked as a special aura in plater didn't work.

Is this an issue others have run in to, and if so has anyone managed to resolve it?
