Boda UI - Discontinued.  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 4.2
by: Bodasafa [More]


Great news everyone! I plan on returning to the game in WoD and releasing this UI publicly again! Stay tuned!


Announcements
• Version 4.2 is now Live! Changes include a master font for the entire game to complete the look and a few minor tweaks. Also a new DBM skin for the bars. To download that by itself check out my Boda UI - DBM Skin.

• The resolution for this UI is 1920x1080 and will only be released for that resolution. If you wish to use this UI for a different resolution you will have to unlock and move the addons yourself. The time it takes to do this depends on your working knowledge of addons in general. Though with the new centered layout, most anyone should have to move is the stuff in the top right corner. I also recommend reading the "Different Resolutions" section of my Guide linked in the "Help and Support" section below.

• This UI is specifically designed for a Warrior Tank in Raiding situations. However many users of different Classes and Specs have been able to modify it so suit their needs. Since moving to Raven (which controls all buffs and debuffs) it should automatically show your specific debuffs on your target and your specific active cooldowns. You should only need to Blacklist the things you do not want shown.

• I do not use a player portrait. Icehud displays my health and rage so a duplicate of that is wasted screen space. You should keybind “Target Self” to a key. When you press this key you will see “You” in the Target frame. You then right click this frame to get all the options you would via a normal player portrait.

Installation
• Backup and then delete your WTF and Interface Folders.
• Download the UI and put the new WTF and Interface Folders in.
• Rename the appropriate folders with YOUR information.
• Your Account Name
• Your Server Name
• Your Character Name
• For a more detailed explanation on how to install a User Interface refer to my guide linked in the “Help and Support” section below.

In Game Set Up
• Login and stop at the character selection screen.
• Click the Addons button in the lower left corner and enable all addons.
• Once inside the game type the following slash commands and select the BodaUI profile for each.
/buttonfacade
/bt
/chatter
/chinchilla
/icehud
/kgpanels config
/msbt
/mbf
/omen
/pitbull
/raven
/recount
/sldatatext
/suf
/tidyplates (and expand the threat plates selection)
• Once all profiles are set reload your UI. Some addons will not appear set such as Chinchilla until you do this.
• Log out to save the profiles.
• Check for updates to all addons. Once all addons have been updated, log in, change your keybindings/macros and your done!
• Every time you update DBM you need to re-skin, its very easy. For instructions check out Boda UI - DBM Skin.

Special Thanks Goes Out To

Read the instructions in my guide, linked near the top of my download page under "Need Help?". The information your looking for is located in the "Different Resolutions" section.

Edit: forgot to reload ui fixed my other problem, but now my recount and omen won't show is this a problem with the ui or the actual addons.
They wont show unless your in combat in a raid/party. You can change those setting in the config options for either addon.

Your profiles will not load in game, is there anything causing this?
Thank you.
If the profiles are not loading you have the WTF folder in the wrong spot or you did not change the folder names with YOUR info and have them spelled correctly.

Check out my guide linked near the top of my download page for more instructions.

A little bit of work and I've been able to get it working/looking good with each character class. It is highly playable, as well. A lot of the clean UIs seem very unplayable, as if they are just to show off in screenshots or something. Great work! I just hope everything works well with the upcoming release of 3.3. =P
Thank you, Im glad you enjoy it.

2. Is there an easy way to create a bar for pets? (I'm a warlock) For prehaps a premade one?

Thanks.
I was unaware that keybindings transfered with my UI. I use the number pad to move. Just go into the game menu and change them under keybinds.

As far as pets type /pitbull , you will have to go into there and play with the options to make up pet frames.

For bars type /bt and enable a bar not being used , like #1 and set it up for your pet.

The fix was to traverse the WTF directory down to the affected character and amend the layout-local.txt, specifically the section for "WatchFrame", e.g.:

Code:
Frame: WatchFrame
FrameLevel: 1
Anchor: RIGHT
X: 0
Y: -15
W: 280
H: 511

Thanks alot aastarius! I opened the file and searched for "watchframe" and had a look at it, and the code is just what he linked in his post so its very easy to modify. The only thing I think you need to change is "H: 511". In my file the value was set to a negative number just like it was for him. After I changed the value to 511 it works just like it should!. I also changed Anchor from "bottomright" to "right" just to be safe.

In my case the H: had been set to -142, replacing it with 511 made it alll ok again.

No idea what caused it for me and like I said, was only affecting certain characters .... weird eh.
So in order to fix it you need to edit the code in the file? Seems like they could have given us an easier option.

I appreciate your response, but I am not comfortable changing blizzard code and risk breaking something over a trivial frame I don't even use. Ill wait for an in-game fix. After all I made the thing go away in game, there should be a way to bring it back in game.

Setting to scratch would mean you download all the addons in my compilation and configure the color, borders, backrounds, information displayed, and fonts.

None of which you have to do in order to get my UI to work for your resolution.

There is no short cut to it, you will have to unlock and re-size the addons to make them fit your screen. But the good news is that's rather easy. You just have to be willing to spend the time.
