-Shortly after patch 3.3 launches I will be dropping a new release. So far mostly minor tweaks.
Planned Changes:
Pitbull 4
- Party frames are now moved and centered along the top of the screen instead of the top left corner. This corrects an issue of tool tips overlapping the party frames.
Bartender 4
- For some reason bar 1 was enabled and off the screen unable to be selected. The bar has now been centered on the screen and disabled.
SBF (Satrina Buff Frames)
- I have renamed each frame for the job it does. For example instead of SBF 1, it reads "Your Buffs" ect.
- The "Debuffs on Target" frame now shows when Demo Shout or Vindication or Curse of Weakness, Thunderclap, and Sunder Armor are applied by anyone. Previously it only showed when you applied them and did not include Vindication/Curse of Weakness. This is to help reduce the chance you are wasting time applying a debuff already present.
DBM
I have enabled the 2nd set of bars "big" bar to appear just above the target and target of target frame. This is to have a centered and larger CD bar to inform you of information you need to know during an encounter.
Need Help?
-If after reading ALL the information below you still are having issues downloading, installing or setting up my UI for a different resolution check out my guide: A Guide to Downloading User Interfaces
3.2.3 Version Changes:
-This UI will now be released and updated for 1920x1080 resolution only. Many apologies to my smaller resolution users. I will keep the version 3.2.2 (1280x1024) archived on this download page. You can continue to use that version by simply updating the addons as updates become available.
-Removed Archeron (found that I did not use it enough to keep it)
-Removed Archud2 (wanted to go to unit frames instead of the 3D target box)
-Removed X-perl (not enough customization)
-Removed Quartz (the need for this addon was replaced by Pitbull4)
-Added Icehud
-Added Pitbull4
-Added Recount
-This UI now has Focus and Target of your Focus.
-The information on this page has been updated and includes new instructions for the latest version.
The following information is Important. Read it! I will do my best to check the tankspot thread linked at the bottom of this page as often as I can to provide support help. You can also check that thread and the comments on this download page to see if someone asked the same question as you and an answer was provided. Please take the time to check the sources available to you, including addon homepages, if you are having an issue with one.
Install Instructions:
1) Copy your Interface and WTF folders and store them somewhere safe, outside your WoW folder(this is to create a backup, if you do not like my UI ).
2) Delete the Interface and WTF folder from your WoW Folder.
3) Download the UI and extract it to your WoW Folder.
4) Go into your WoW folder and open the Boda UI folder. Then pull out the WTF and Interface folders and place them in the WoW folder. Once you have the WTF and Inteface folders out you can delete the empty Boda UI folder.
5) Go into the WTF Folder and rename the appropriate folders with YOUR info.
- Account Name (All Caps)
- Realm/Server Name (First Letter Cap)
- Change "Your Name" to your characters name (First Letter Cap)
6) Profiles: Log in and use the following slash commands to open the configs and select the "Bodasafa - Eldre'Thalas" profile for each:

8) Log out of wow to save the changes.
9) Log in and Enjoy.
Other Classes and Resolutions FAQ:
The resolution for this UI is 1920x1080, But you can use this UI for other resolutions. All you have to do is play with the UI scale via the in-game video options till it looks right. You may have to do some other adjustments such as unlocking the panels and addons to relocate and re-size them slightly. If your having trouble moving them go check out the download page for that addon. They generally have helpful tips listed there.
Please note I CANNOT tell anyone how to set this UI up for a different resolution. It is impossible for me to describe how to make this fit to your screen.
Additionally this UI can work with many other classes and specs. Please read the information for SBF located here: Satrina Buff Frames 3 and refer to those instructions if you are using this UI for other classes. This will help you set up the Target Debuffs (left of the center box) and your special ability procs (right of the center box) if you are not a warrior.
Suggested Macros:
- Recount Reset
In order to get the recount window to look clean I had to remove all the little icons. Due to this I would recommend making a reset macro for recount. Otherwise you will stack up a crap load of saved data and load up your memory.
/recount reset
- Focus
I found it helpful to create a simple focus macro. Target the person/mob you want to focus and click the macro.
/focus
- Target Self
I do not use a player portrait in this UI since Icehud shows my Health/Rage ect. I recommend that you key bind "target self" via the in-game key bind options to a key. When you press that key you will see "you" as the target in your target frame. You then right click your name to see the normal options you would get via a regular player portrait.

Archived Versions - Boda's Black Box UI (1920x1080)
ok, heres my issues: I need mouse-over tooltips on my spells, and they dont show up.
also, in your raid Screenshot, it shows cooldowns to the left and right of the target panel. wht mod is that linked to? my characters arent warriors and since it is set for a warrior, my warr buddies CD pop on there but not mine.
I decided, VERY recently that it was about time i reformatted my UI... a complete overhaul. being a fan of TankSpot's video's, i figured you guys knew enough about tanking and such that you would have some pretty solid UI's. jut a little searching and i found some wonderful posts showing UI's from some of your most predominant members. This one was the first i looked at and my first word was "Beautiful" followed shortly by, " fantastic, i love it, etc..."
To be fair, i checked the other UI's but this one appealed to me the most. i am downloading it right no and i cant wait. Best part, i have a 17" monitor nd i run on a VERY similar resolution ( little configuration, yay!). i definitely see some adjustments ill have to make for my personal preferences and needs ( i am a druid) but i really think what you have layed out will be a very good base to work from.
Originally posted by cjdevito11 I want to be able to see the tooltips of my spells when i mouse over them like over in the bottom right..above the eepanels set up...anyway i can do this?
I think there is an addon called "Move Anything", that would probably do it. Though I am not 100% sure on that.

Originally posted by Bodasafa The comments about an archived file are old. My entire UI comes from one download now. You press the big download button above the screen shots. It is a rar. file. So you will need a program to unzip it. WinRAR, is the one I use. Do a google search. Its a free program.
Originally posted by Recks32 I'm sorta new to this site and all and just wanted to experiment with a different UI than the one I've been using for ages...but I can't seem to download your file. And I don't see the "Archived file" you mentioned earlier.

Originally posted by Gombol This ui is -really- nice, but is there any way to make the chat bigger, without making the font bigger in the (tiny) box, cause my eyes are bad, and i struggle to read the text in there.
Well I would suggest moving Omen 3 and removing the divider bar between the chat box and Omen 3 box. Then you could just unlock the chat window and drag it up to have it take up that entire area.
To do this:
1) Unlock Omen 3 via the mini-map button.
2) Left click drag Omen 3 out above the artwork somewhere you would like it.
3) Go into the eepanels config via the mini-map button.
4) Un-check the "lock panels" option.
5) Mouse over the divider bar above the chat box to see what number it is.
6) Check the "lock panels" option (so you dont move anything)
7) Go into the eepanels config and mouse over panel settings.
8) Scroll down till you find the number of that divider and mouse over it.
9) Near the bottom there should be a "remove panel" option, click that to remove the divider.
10) Mouse over the chat box and in the upper left corner right click the "general" tab.
11) Un-check the "lock" option.
12) Left click drag the top of the box up to fill the area.
13) Lock the chat window.
Now your chat will take up the whole left side and you could make the font slightly larger so its easier to read if you want.

I understand now. Unfortunately because all the addons I use in this UI are written for English there is probably no way for you to get the font. You might try un-installing SCT and then looking for a version of SCT that is written in Korean.
