NioUI

Version: 2.38
by: dickloraine [More]

Resolution: 1680x1050 (1920x1080)

This UI is made to fit to the beautiful MiirGui textures and trys to be very lightweight.

Here is a small video, that shows the UI in action.

nioUI replaces many of the default interface elements, like actionbars, map, minimap, questwatch, unitframes etc. It covers nearly anything I consider basic functions of an UI. There are two exceptions: First, you would want to install a Bossmod in addition to this UI. Second: If you are like me, you want to have some other Addon, that tracks and shows your cooldowns, debuffs, buffs etc. which are essential to your rotation somewhere in the middle of the screen. The thing with this is, that each class needs other things and each player prefers other ways of presenting this informations. Fortunatly there are many addons out there, which cover this needs. One you will find in the optional addons pack, that comes with this UI (weak auras).

Update
2.38
  • Updated oUF
  • Fixed special Debuffs recognition
  • Hide unitframes in pet battles
  • Hide panels in pet battles. This is an option and can be turned of. Changed nioUiConfig in line 370 for the option
  • Lootframes are now in a new position

Installation
  1. Backup your Addon and WTF Folder
  2. Optional but recommended: Download and install the MiirGui Texture-Pack and the MiirGui Icons (also available in grey: Grey Textures, Grey Icons).
  3. Copy the folders inside this zip to your Addon folder
  4. Optional: Copy any addons from the optional addon pack in your addon folder
  5. Enter wow
  6. Just click the "Okay" button.
  7. Done!

Configuration
If you want to use the grey theme, go into the ingame-options and check the button.
You can change many settings ingame in the blizzard options panel. To change things not covered there (or you want to repostion frames), look at "NioUi Config.lua" in the nioUI folder.
To change the indicators or the blacklist/whitelist, just modify "nioauras.lua" in the nioUI/Unitframes/oUF_NioDrk folder.
If you want to see other data brokers in the broker display, look into "Broker config.lua" in the nioUI folder.

Usage
Just some quick tips for the not so obvious little features:
  • You can right-click the Minimap for the Tracking-Menu. Middle-clickin opens the calender
  • You can make a mount macro: Just make a macro and enter "/niomount" in it. Drag it on an actionbar. Right-clicking it, will open a menu. You set your flying mount by clicking on the mount and your ground mount by shift-clicking.
  • You will find some tweaks in the ingame-options, like auto-selling grey items, auto-repair (with or without guildfunds), enter your TS/Ventrilo/Mumble Infos and post them vie the option in the raid-broker and some more little things.

Ich hätte es vorher mal ausprobieren sollen^^ Liegt einfach nur daran, dass die Castbar mit dem Porträt verknüpft ist. Aber die willst du natürlich eh erst recht nicht über deinem Unitframe haben. Ein wenig weiter unten (Zeile 111) findest du "lib.addCastBar(self, true)". Das einfach auch löschen/auskommentieren und alles funktioniert

Danke für die mühe
Hi, das ist kein Problem. Geh im Addon Ordner in den oUF_NioDrk Ordner. Öffne die "core.lua" Datei im Texteditor. In Zeile 76 findest du "lib.addPortrait(self)". Du kannst die Zeile einfach löschen oder mit "--" auskommentieren, falls du es doch wieder einstellen willst irgendwann. Die Datei speichern und das sollte es gewesen sein.

Ach und wenn du einen Weak Auras String für Drachenseele hast würdest glaube ich vielen deutschen spielern helfen!

PS hab ne fast fertige 1920x1080 version wenn mal interesse hast
Ich hab zur Zeit nur einen sehr rudimentären Weak Auras String. Gibt ja nicht soviele Fähigkeiten auf Normal zur Zeit. Hardmode kann man ja erst diese Woche rein. Bin eh am Überlegen, ob die einfache Debuffanzeige mit Weak Auras noch nötig ist, da dies jetzt auch durch Raven übernommen wird. Anderes kommt, sobald ich sehe, was man anzeigen sollte. Bin für Vorschläge auch offen, da ich zur Zeit auch selten Tank spiele, wäre es eh nützlich zu wissen, was da wichtig wäre.

Eine 1920x1080 Version wäre schon interessant. Das Problem wär natürlich, dass ich selbst da nichts testen kann, aber sind ja eigentlich auch nur Positionen und Größen für die Panels und Actionbars. Wenn du die Version fertig hast, kannst du mir ja eine PM schicken und ich werde versuchen sie entweder direkt einzubauen oder als alternativen Download anbieten. Vielen Dank schon mal für die Mühe

I will look at this, when I'm back from weekend vacation. Until then, try to disable buffin and then type this in Chat: /reflux switch nioui

Is your resolution 1680x1050? Otherwise you have to move some things manualy. The background frames are kgPanels (type /kgpanels config to open the menu), the actionbars bartender (/bar) and the unitframes are moveable with /omf.

I hope, this will solve your problem.
