- Scroll wheel support or direct input ( for the options )
- Option to reset to defaults ( for raids =P )
In the graphic submenu I plan to add a "Save profile" and a "Load profile" button. This might be pretty helpful for riding people with slower machines too.

Spell Effect Level:
I know atm it's hard to hit this "9" between 0 and 2000. As a workaround:
If you want to hit exacly Level "9" you could enter
Code:
/console spellEffectLevel 9


The titles are always the names of those "CVars"... (without empty spaces).
But 'll search a better solution for this.

Edit: since v1.9 it should be a little bit easier to select that default level 9

The characterambient cvar can only be turned completely off by setting it without a numeral value.
Next version will be able to do that.

Edit: done

Also, I don't know if nearclip and lod do anything anymore or not, but you might want to add them.
I already tried a little bit whith lod and nearclip, but so far i didn't see any difference.
I'll test a little bit more with both of them.

Edit: tested again.. enablle lod, disable lod etc. see no difference

Characterambient

The characterambient cvar can only be turned completely off by setting it without a numeral value.

"/console characterambient"

Please add the ability to turn it completely off.

Also, I don't know if nearclip and lod do anything anymore or not, but you might want to add them.

And possibly the various bias settings.

There's a huge line between what's part of the game (well, that's everything!), and game settings.

What exactly is violence level?
0 = No effects
1 = Green Blood effects
2 - 5 = red blood effects

but it's hard to see the difference, you need to zoom in very close

Also, are you certain that the camera view cannot be adjusted to zoom out even further
By setting cameraDistanceMax 25 and cameraDistanceMaxFactor 2 you will reach the maximum distance. You could try to set both to higher values but you will have exactly the same result.

Quite a nice addon. I've used these tweaks in the past manually but forgot over time but coming across this addon refreshed my memory and best part yet it now makes it simplistic.

I do have a question on one part though. What exactly is violence level? I assumed it was the thickness of blood splatters but I couldn't seem to notice much of a difference, granted I didn't pay attention to them prior anyway.

Also, are you certain that the camera view cannot be adjusted to zoom out even further or is that a new restriction in the latest WoW Clients? I seem to remember back in the day being able to set it ridiculously far, as in I could zoom out and see damn near the other side of the zone from where my character was.
