EventAlert

Version: 4.7.6

by: CurtisTheGreat [More]

The addon will notify you in the middle of your screen with an icon, name of the spell that has procced, the time left on the proc and will make a subtle sound. EventAlert is also able to handle more than one proc at a time (this option was not available in previous versions).

I am not fond of addons that have very complicated installation and setups. The mod should work on install without any config, but if you wish to change any options use the following command: /ea options
To see a more detailed list of what options are avaiable to the mod, just check out the screenshot of the options pane.

This mod tracks the following events/procs:

Death Knight
- Cinderglacier (Runeforging)
- Dark Transformation
- Killing Machine
- Rime (Freezing Fog)

Druid

Quick Backstory: I created this addon as a test for myself as my first "from the ground up" addon. Most of my coding in WoW LUA was taking other addons and just fixing them so they work from minor bugs or whatnot.

Anyhow, I needed a mod that was lightweight and did only what I wanted it to do, and that was warn me when one of my spells or talents procced something I needed. Thus, EventAlert was born. There are likely to be bugs, explosions and not so good things that may come from this mod. I'm sorry in advance! If you find a bug, please let me know so I can fix it.

Also, if anyone finds a spell/talent/etc that they want watched, please let me know and I will add it!

4.7.6
Bugfix: Fixed problem with spell charges not showing up on alerts.
Bugfix: Fixed problem with alerts not showing when options changed without a reload.
Change: Added option to show/hide spell charges.

If you wanna change them, you can check out lines 50-171 in the EventAlertOptions.lua file. Keep in mind that when I update the mod, if you don't save that section you've edited, you'll lose the settings.

I look forward to the future improvements of this addon. It's already helping me to no end! Good luck!

May I ask where the addon is gettng the sounds from? i don't see them from my EventAlert directory! Maybe I could change them myself?

There has never been a map icon for EventAlert. I don't think I'll end up adding one. The addon was designed to be as lightweight and configuration free as possible.

Sounds are something that has been asked about a lot. It is a feature I will end up adding, but I'm not sure when that will happen. I need to be able to do it without disrupting the addon's easy setup and keep the mod lightweight.

Hopefully I will have something in place soon, but for now the only thing I can say is that just check back from time to time to see if that support has been added.

aatwo A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 1	I have been searching for aaaaages today trying to find an addon that will give me some audio alerts for Overpower and Execute - so FANTASTIC JOB to you, CurtisTheGreat =) as this addon works wonderfully. If I may I would like to suggest a new feature, and mention a bug that I am experiencing. 1) I have no icon on my map for this addon - not really sure why, however i can still use the addon using the "/ea opt" command. 2) The sounds available are not particularly attention grabbing. I would LOVE the ability to use custom sounds for custom events. For example: I would like to have a morphed voice say "OVERPOWER" when overpower procs, and then another morphed voice say "EXECUTE" when execute procs. (I already have the morphed voice audio files, I just need the support for using them! ) Thanks for your time please reply to this as I will be chacking back for some closure regarding my suggestion about custom sounds (i am eager for this feature). =)

Re: Different sounds for different procs?

Great addon - love it!

Just wondering if you've ever given any thought to allowing people to choose different alert sounds for different procs?

I could envision the config for this appearing in the "Class Events" frame, perhaps? Your addon, so your call, obviously

Thanks...

Ya, I've looked into this.

People keep telling me I need to hook ACE into it all and go from that route. My issue there, is that I'm trying to keep this addon as lightweight as possible. Adding in the libs is gonna take some lightweight feel away from the mod.

I'm considering it.

I'm gonna look into different ways of doing it and see what I come up with.

Hum, that's odd. I thought I fixed that error in .11. Does it do it every time you open the window? Testing it on my DK right now, and it works fine...
