caelUI

Version: r18 040513

by: Caellian [More]

INTRODUCTION

Due to the overwhelming amount of people asking for it i decided to finally release caelUI to the public.

caelUI is a very light, all-inclusive UI at least for dps and tank classes.

It doesn't include addons like decursive and such but feel free to add them.

caelUI has absolutely no in game configuration, meaning that if you don't have a minimum of knowledge of Lua, this is not the UI you're looking for.

CaelUI has been written to work with the enGB/US locale, OTHER LOCALES AREN'T SUPPORTED.

I'm open to any suggestion that might improve it but i give no guarantee that anything you request will ever be included.

INSTALLATION

Delete your WTF folder. (make a backup of yours before deleting)
Remove any addons that might interfere with this UI. (examples: other actionbar addons, unitframes etc...)
Copy the content of this package to your AddOns folder.
Start the game, define your screen resolution, reloadui.

these keys and only these are enabled:

Edit: i've checked and it's disabled, so i don't know what your problem is.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll explore more.

Actually that's what I need to thank you for also. Thanks so much for your lua's. They're all so clean and full of info that I'm enjoying to understand and learn. This is coming from someone who has no background in lua programming!

I have three questions:

1. How does caelTracking work? I've looked through it and saw that it's set for horde (I'm alliance).

2. I'm a hunter too. I'm having problems with the cooldowns and buttons. Sometimes the buttons activate right on keypress sometimes they don't. I sometimes need to press them twice (and no, they're not on cd). What am I doing wrong?

3. I've also seen some Core 1 to Core 8 text in cvarData.lua. How do you use those?

Thanks in advance.

1. comment horde cities, uncomment alliance ones, it simply auto set your tracking according to your target.

2. this part (replace KeyUp with KeyDown) shouldn't be enabled for you at all, i'll see if i forgot to disable it properly.
these keys and only these are enabled:

Code:

"1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "0", ")", "-"

Edit: i've checked and it's disabled, so i don't know what your problem is.

3. don't touch that, it's only informational

Right, the gotChat part is only for the renaming part, everything else, joining/leaving/coloring has to be done in the caelChat.lua

I'm once again stuck on adding and colouring custom chat channels. I've added them in the gotChat LUA like this local CustomChannelNames = { -- ["Trade"] = "Trade.", ["Sanctanks"] = "Tank.", ["Sanctumfails"] = "Fails.", ["Sanchunter"] = "Hunter.", -- ["[rR]aid[hH]unter"] = "hunt.", -- ["[gG][iI][cC]aster"] = "Ranged.", -- ["[wW]e[dD]id[cC]a[cC]"] = "CaC.", } Ofcourse im forgetting something or doing it wrong so anyone who knows how to do it right would very much please me with a comment thanks!

Thanks!

/addonset loads the default UI
/addonset party loads the default UI + dps meter and threat meter
/addonset raid loads the whole stuff, including BigWigs if it's installed

Open caelAddonManager to edit the addons.

2) imo will cause alot of clutter considering that cDebuff shows the icon, but it does matter to see all types of debuffs.

3) should be able to fix through Lua.
4) thats more convenience thing :P not entirely necessary. ((its not only healers who cast buffs))

i would suggest adding tank frames that shows debuffs as well. ontop of those suggestions some ppl like seeing difference HP but thats a playstyle thing.

more kudos inc: i dont know what u've done but im running my game @ a higher FPS than norm. very sexy UI

2) Toons that heal and have an offspec usually have 2 different position for raid frames (I have 3). Top left is perfect for DPS and over the target frame is perfect for raid healing. I have 2 positons that have to switch between because I have been to lazy to figure out how to code it by class, and talent spec.

3) I have mine set up to show all the debuffs that are pertinent to healing. You just have to add a priority to the ones that you want to be shown when you have more than two types of debuffs on a player. An example would be Marrowgar HM, I have Bone Spikes prioritized over Bone Storm. I only see one debuff icon on any given raid frame but since the highest priority is always visible I know who needs to be getting the heals.

I agree that point 1 is needed and I strongly advise point 2. The others are more of a luxury but I think that is what makes this UI so appealing. There are so many bells and whistles that make you wonder why anyone would use anything else. I don't need the beeps on my combo points and have never used them before but when I heard them for the first time I was like "ZOMG!", I have to have them. I will say he hid them very well because I still can't find where that code is.

Sounds good. I'll see if I can't tinker with some of the code too and possibly get a workaround in my spare time.

Well you asked for it.
1) need to have indicators for class specific HoT's, Bubbles, Beacon of Light, defensive abilities or Shields.
example- Druid would have an indicator that would show Rejuv in a corner with a duration timer, in another corner would have a Lifebloom stack counter and duration would be color coded.
2) oUF_cDebuff updated for all raid debuffs including ones that can't be cleansed, decursed or dispelled. (healers need to know who to focus heals on)
3) movable and scalable raid frames.
4) OOC feature that shows who is missing a buff

I'm sure some want more and some want less but that is what I needed to heal. And is still has to look hawt goes without saying =P

Love the work you guys have done. It's a badass UI!
