Faceroller Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 0.2.9

by: hungtar [More]

please accept my apology for abandoning this addon and not answering your support requests.

I don't play wow anymore and thus any request will remain unaswered.

What is Faceroller?

Faceroller is an addon in the spirit of Event Horizon with the look of Faceshooter. It's focus lies on using a minimal amount of screen space while showing anything you need to know at the moment.

It will show you only one icon on the screen: the highest priority ability, which should be used next. Once the ability was used, it will reevaluate all cooldowns and debuffs on your target and present you the next spell.

As this needs tracking of cooldowns and debuffs and making decisions what to suggest when, Faceroller is split into modules. And to get some use out of Faceroller, you will need a module that fits your talent spec (See below for a list of modules).

You will get little or no use out of Faceroller if your toon is below level 80!

What Faceroller is NOT

First and foremost, Faceroller is not all knowing. It only keeps track of your current target and therefore can assist you only with a single target.

How to use Faceroller

First, you will need a module that works with your spec. There are currently modules available for the following specs:

Warrior:
- Arms
- Fury
- Prot 1 (included, experimental*, by Opaque)
- Prot 2
Shadow Priest
Balance Druid
Deathknight:
- Frost 1 (included, experimental*, by hectolight, module name: dkdwfrost)
- Frost 2 (included, experimental*, by Kallsuh, module name: dkdwfrost_Kall)
- unholy
- blood
Paladin:
- Retribution
- Prot (included, experimental*, by lloydbates)
Warlock:
Hunter:
- mm/sv/bm hunters (included, all in one module named simplehunter)
Shaman:
- Enhancement (included)
- Elemental (included, experimental*)
Mage:
- FFB (included, experimental*)
- Arcane (included, experimental*)
Rogue:
- Combat

* These modules may not always work as expected. If they don't, please leave a comment.

If you see the message "init failed for module ... (Reason: none given)" enable debug output with /fr debug. Make sure your character knows all the spells, required by the module you are using, before reporting it as a bug!

Install a module of your choice along with Faceroller. Start WoW. You can fire up the GUI with /fr config or by clicking on the LDB plugin (if you have a broker display).

Note: Faceroller rememberrs different modules for both specs, if you have dual spec. If you switch specs for the first time after installing Faceroller, don't forget to configure!

Note: All modules require your character to be level 80 to work!

Getting started with your own module

Writing your own module can be as easy as editing a lua table. See Faceroller_EasyExample (included in the zip) for an example how that works.

If the possibilities provided by the Easy* API are too restraining, you will need some knowledge of lua or you will have a hard time writing your own module. Have a look at Faceroller_ExampleModule (included in the zip). It's a simple module that does the same as Faceroller_EasyExample but with a more complex API. The comments are quiet extensive and should give you a good overview how things work.

The module Faceroller_SimpleEnhancementShaman uses a mixture of both and might help you as well with getting started.

Also, have a look at the documentation at github. If you have further questions, leave a comment.

Want to share your module?

If you wrote a module but you don't want to maintain it yourself, i can include it in the zip here. Just send me a PM or leave a comment where i can find your module. Note: since i won't be able to test all modules, new included modules will be marked as experimental for a few weeks. If too many people complain about an experimental module, it will get deleted. So please make sure it really works.

Following is a (possibly incomplete) list of specs, for which there is currently no module:

Feral Druid
Rogue: assassination, subtlety

FYI.

Thanks for letting me know. Just downloaded that thing to get an idea what the issue could be. Unfortunately, i got an "Internal Error" on every addon i tried to update. I will wait some time and try this again. But at the moment there is nothing i can do about this.

Edit: looked in the mmoui minion forum and noticed this is a known bug with the client. Will pack the next release with just the addons in the zip and not in an extra folder. But of course i won't be able to check if that fixes it.

Edit: 0.0.6 is packed as described above. let's hope that fixes it.

i also moved the createFrames function to Faceroller:createFrames so you can easily create a new frame from inside your module. But unlocking, moving etc. will not be handled for you. Still not convinced there is a real use for multiple frames though. Let me know how it goes

Edit: in 0.0.5 "if spells[X].usable == 1 and spells[X].enabled ~= 1 then ..." should work. [/b]

Working on an Arms Warrior module. I'd need the following added to the core in order for it to work:

Code:

-- update usable information for spells watched. function Faceroller:SPELL_UPDATE_USABLE() local now = GetTime() for k, v in pairs(spells) do v.usable = IsUsableSpell(v.name) end end

with the appropriate event registration, of course

The other thing I'd like to see, and it's a big other, is multiple spell queues. So, for instance, I'd like to set-up one frame that reminds me of my instant type spells(in the case of an arms warrior): rend, execute, overpower, etc. and another queue frame for periodics/on swing: Heroic Strike/cleave, battle shout, etc. Given your framework, it doesn't seem as though it would be too hard to implement, but what do i know!

Added that in 0.0.4, with "if spells[X].usable == 1 then ..." you can now check, if a reactive ability is usable. Thanks for the hint

About having multiple frames: i can't see it would be useful when you have reactive or on next swing abilities. Would be really annoying to have heroic strike block the display most of the time. That being said, i don't understand why you would at heroic strike or cleave to the stuff your module returns. Since they don't have a cooldown and can be used as long as you have enough rage, whats the point? I don't play a warrior so if there is something else to it, please explain

Edit: it would be nice, if FR would check for on next swing abilities, not only if they are usable, but if they are already queued up. So you could check for "if spells[X].usable == 1 and spells[X].enabled ~= 1 then ...". Will see if and how that would work and put that in the next version.

Edit: in 0.0.5 "if spells[X].usable == 1 and spells[X].enabled ~= 1 then ..." should work.

/fr
Prints "Faceroller: Faceroller options:"
and nothing more

/fr list
Prints sv but no list of modules
sv is the tables name holding the module names I think (just looked over that part of your code a second or two)

/fr scale 0.3
Does not change the scale but the alpha

/fr alpha
Doesn't work at all

Ok mate keep up the good work. Im really loving Faceroller. Using it on my priest and ret pal. Gonna release the Facerolelr_ShadowPriest soon

Cheers

Just uploaded 0.0.3 with fixes for the slash-command stuff. That /fr list thing is working as it should, i think. There should only be one module showing up. The test modules are not loaded unless you are a shaman or hunter. The name is showing up as "sv" might be that you forgot to edit the RegisterModule line at the end.
