rTargetPointer  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 60000.02
by: zork [More]


INTRO

rTargetPointer is a small addon that will display a rotating arrow in the center of the screen that will point to your current target nameplate.

The arrow ring is just an example. Any kind of textue could be used. Additionally. Why stop at 1 texture. Why not use 2 or more?

Oh my gosh - this is what I've needed for my feral druid. Will be so nice to use or those moments when you deal with a teleporting target, lol!

Can't wait to try it out. I love how slick and simplistic it looks. Thank you.

*edit* PS - Zork, lol I should have known it was you! DUH, nice RothUI screenie.

Saw an arrow trail in NPA2 recently, and thought that was a cool idea.
This is a rather more subtle, and in my opinion practical version.
Nice idea.

You need a target and a visible target nameplate.

Can this be used with just the small arrow without the ring around it?

@Snichy
Of course. The ring is part of the arrow texture. If the ring would be transparent only the arrow would be visible.

Download version 60000.02.

Use this config setting
Lua Code:
  1. local cfg = {}
  2.  
  3.   cfg.arrowSize       = 256
  4.   cfg.arrowTexture    = "pointer2"
  5.   cfg.arrowColor      = {1,0.5,0,0.9} -- r,g,b,a
  6.   cfg.arrowBlendMode  = "BLEND"     -- "ADD" or "BLEND"

Download this arrow:
https://rothui.googlecode.com/svn/tr...a/pointer2.tga

Put that arrow in the media folder of rTargetPointer and restart the game.

Result:

Behind you...

Unless I'm missing some option, the arrow only points to targets relatively in front of you? I was hoping it would point "down" to indicate if I've turned away from my target.

Nice looking addon, as usual!

Really sweet addon!

A 360 option would be really sweet, but it might cause a "unfair advantage" in pvp if you have a arrow pointing you in the direction the player went?

@all
The arrow is pointing to the target nameplate. (the plate above your targeted npc/player head)
That is all it does. No plate, no arrow.

The arrow is pointing is to a specific nameplate. That nameplate as a health statusbar. That statusbar has a statusbarcolor. Extract that color and apply it to the arrow.
