VxtUI Gen.2

Version: 2.4

by: Xiao [More]

Welcome to VxtUI Gen.2!

Please Read ChangeLog for a list of updates. Thank you!

About the UI
After years of UI designing and the success of my DicateUI remake, VxtUI, I started looking for a new UI build that was different from what I had been using, while keeping all the visual appeal I find necessary to enjoy the projects I undertake. This UI is the culmination of ideas other designers have used that I have seen and enjoyed, plus adding my own touch to suit my needs.

In terms of functionality, this UI is made for PVE Raiding. I have been using this UI, and have ran into zero issues using it in a progression-oriented, 25-man Heroic raiding guild. I have laid information out so important info is consolidated and easy to find, while keeping certain elements built around it to make great use of the screen space. While it is set up for 25-man raiding, using this for 10-man raiding is fully possible, and with some tweaks, this could also serve as the base for a PVP-oriented UI.

The resolution of this UI is 1920x1080. I will not format it to fit any other resolution. If you use a different resolution, you will have to configure it yourself.

Installation

Unzip VxtUI Gen 2.rar to your desktop.
Back-up your current Interface and WTF folders and remove them from your World of Warcraft folder.
Copy the Fonts, Interface, and WTF folders from VxtUI Gen 2 into your World of Warcraft folder.
Rename the ACCOUNTNAME, Server, and Character folders inside the newly copied WTF folder to your appropriate information.
Launch World of Warcraft and set display settings to Windowed(Fullscreen) and make sure it is at 1920x1080.
Make sure you have "Load Out-of-Date AddOns" checked and log into your character.
Load VxtUI via the nibProfileLoader prompt box. The UI will reload automatically.
Select the "Vxt" profile in the Gnosis GUI screen.
Type /rl to reload the UI opne last time.
Enjoy!

Thanks and Credits

All my thanks goes out to the AddOn developers who create and share these wonderful addons with us. The Ui designing community is large and I want to thank all the fellow Ui designers who have the same love for creation that I do, even some who go above and beyond what I am capable of to create amazing UI's. Without the UI community's constant support of each other and the sharing of ideas, we would never have many of the great UI's players all over the world use.

Version 2.4 - 05/07/2013
=============================================================================

- New UI Layout! Moved elements around and made a few X/Y adjustments to frames.
- Added MikScrollingBattleText. So Now you can see all your numbers for no reason!
- Removed Masque and added CleanIcons. Buttons now have a clean 1px border and should free up some memory.
- No longer providing BossMods. DBM decides to spam with updates. I now use BigWigs. Will not share as there is a bunch of Guild-Only timers I have that I will not share with the public.
- Overall seeing some performance improvements across the board with this version. Enjoy!

=============================================================================
Version 2.3 - 04/24/2013
=============================================================================

- Deleted ncShadow. Doesn't need to be there.
- Random AddOn updates.
- New Masque Skin. Added a kgPanel for Action Bars.

=============================================================================
Version 2.2 - 04/1102013
=============================================================================

- Updated Stuf
- Updated Skada
- Updated DBM (Lol)
- Added 2 Large Buttons On Action Bars. Will Not Show Unless Abilities Are On Them.
- Enjoy!

=============================================================================
Version 2.1a - 03/26/2013
=============================================================================

- Updated some addons.
- Changed the Masque skin. Old one was being deleted with Repair tool.
- Changed DBM skin.
- Added !BugGrabber and BugSack for LUA error catching and management.
- Added ncShadow to add a nice shadowed border around the screen.

=============================================================================
Version 2.0c - 03/12/2013
=============================================================================

- Updated a few addons.
- Resized the unitframes a little for a smoother animation.
- Let's get to 1,000 downloads!

=============================================================================
Version 2.0b - 03/08/2013
=============================================================================

- Updates for more addons. Gotta love patch week!
- Added QuseMap as the minimap. I miss Quse :(
- Added SLDataText for FPS/MS/Memory/Armor/Time.
- Manually edited every display in nibPointDisplay for you all. Was not fun.
- Updated screens to current version.
- Probably forgetting something.

=============================================================================
Version 2.0a - 03/06/2013
=============================================================================

- Deleted VexPower for nibPointDisplay. I love nibPD and was only using VexPower due to nibPD being out-of-date.

- Updated most AddOns to 5.2. Some do not require updates, or have not been updated.

- Deleted nibMicroMenu. It is currently broken. Will add again once it is updated.

=============================================================================
Version 1.1 - 02/23/2013
=============================================================================

- Removed WeakAuras. The AddOn contains too much personal preference to appease to all.

- Added Aurora for extra aesthetics. Stuff looks pretty now!

- Added outlines to Skada bars.

- Added !dbm for a more skinned DBM look.

- Updated a few AddOns.

- General UI clean up.

I currently have no plans to change chat mods from bChat, unless some new mods comes out that keeps it just as clean and lightweight. Though I'm sure there's a workaround in the bChat LUA to add compatability with Instance chat.

As far as I know BG chat has been removed from the game.
Anyway I took a look at the bchat code and here is how I added support for instance chat.

Replace line 33 and 34:

Code:

_G.CHAT_BATTLEGROUND_GET = '|Hchannel:Battleground|h[BG]|h %s:\32'
_G.CHAT_BATTLEGROUND_LEADER_GET = '|Hchannel:Battleground|hBG|h %s:\32'

With

Code:

_G.CHAT_INSTANCE_CHAT_GET = '|Hchannel:Instance|h[i]|h %s:\32'
_G.CHAT_INSTANCE_CHAT_LEADER_GET = '|Hchannel:Instance|hI|h %s:\32'

VXT A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 86 Uploads: 3	I am currently working on a DBM style for this. Nothing too complex, but I am trying to figure out how to add a 1-pixel black border around each individual Timer Bar in Bar Group 1 and Bar Group 2(abilities about to happen). I figured out how to do it with Skada so hopefully DBM won't be too difficult. Edit: Thanks LINK. Made those changes since it was a simple task. Still think Blizzard was silly for changing things like that. __________________ Last edited by VXT : 02-09-13 at 02:08 PM.

Really appreciate the feedback! I worked on this for a good bit and got it to a place where I think it is solid. Haven't had any issues using it. Hence why I have killed all 16 Heroic 25-Man bosses with it. So far it works great on my Warlock, Monk, and Druid. And I have some friends using it on a Rogue, Hunter, Mage and Warrior who say it is working perfectly fine for them.

You can drag bags, bank, and other inventory frames by holding Alt+Shift while dragging them.

As for Data Text, I currently do not have SLDataText or any other DataText mod in this UI. I have used SLDT on almost every UI I have ever made, except this one. If there is enough interest in it being added, I will be more than happy to add MS/FPS/Gold/Memory tracking, but currently this UI runs smooth and fluid, so I have had no need for those being displayed. But like I said, I will add it if there is enough requests for it.

Currently looking for someone to make me a sweet signature and a good logo and banner for my UI to give the page some extra aesthetics, as well as having a sweet sig to make me look somewhat important. __________________

The AddOn has an in-game GUI and every point display can be configured in-game via the configuration mode for each one. I will delete all posts asking about doing this as it has already been explained how to move and enable the config mode for each. Thank you and enjoy! I look forward to using this UI to kill every boss on heroic with, like always. As well as go face-to-face with another Titan with Ra-Den. __________________

VXT A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 86 Uploads: 3	I decided to put the Data Text and edit the nibPointDisplay to add elements from my older UI's. I don't think it has hurt my UI aesthetically, but if anyone has any feedback on it, that would be appreciated. I have been thinking of editing the sizing of the unitframes and possibly moving the actionbars down a little, so if feedback points to it, I might make a few changes here and there. __________________

You can move it via the LUA file in the AddOns folder. Just find QuseMap in the Interface\AddOns folder, Open the QuseMap.lua in the folder and simply edit the X/Y coordinates of the map.

A fair warning for you, though: You will have to move the Minimap kgPanel via kgPanels as well, as there is a transparent black rectangle texture with the outer-glow border that is on all the elements of my UI.

Also, thank you liking my UI. We just hit 700 downloads!!!
