EventAlert  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

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)
    • Rune Strike

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.

To see the full change log, view the changelog.txt file included in the EventAlert zip file.

Is it just the Greatness proc, or is it any procs at all?

Just quoting this, because this is really the whole point of EA.

Any proc that doesn't really require a direct action on your part, isn't generally added. I've made a few exceptions, but I'd like to keep them just that... exceptions.

I do plan on adding code that lets you add your own procs, so you can customize your addon.

Seeing it above Recount makes me cringe. haha


Glad you've been enjoying it. I think I'll work on some overhauls in a couple days when I'm off work. Thanks a ton for the info. It helps quite a bit.
Awesome work CTG! You seemed to have fixed the leak and it's back to it's very slender form. Thanks!!

Ya, I was a bit upset when I started looking into it.

There were people in my guild breaking 12mb. It wasn't pretty. Thanks for noticing it, that was a nasty bug.

It's been part of the addon for quite a while.

Are you using the newest version and it isn't working for you?

Technically, yes.

But you never really know until you hop onto the live servers. Once I'm patched and online, I'll make sure. If it isn't working, I will have it fixed ASAP.

Heya,

Trying to figure out how to add spells to EA, specifically Decimation for a Warlock (new in 3.1):

http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=63156
http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=63158

I tried adding to EventAlertSpellArray the following:
Code:
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][63156] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][63156] = true end;
		if EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][63158] == nil then EA_Items[EA_CLASS_WARLOCK][63158] = true end;
...but I don't see the the alert. MSBT seems to recognize it though.

Tips?

Thanks.
