YKTarget  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.4
by: Shooshting [More]

Special Thanks
To Scott C, I appreciate what you did. Thank you very much.

Update History
2.4 : Added Isle of Conquest to list of battlegrounds. Addon now shows regardless of being party leader due to all group members being able to mark. (Thanks to ffxiedyn for giving me the heads up)
2.3 : Updated toc for 3.3
2.3 : Fixed bug with force hide. Updated for patch 3.2.
2.2 : Increased X & Y values for larger screens. Also added manual entry for X & Y Values.
2.1 : Fixed bug on not loading default theme on first use.
2.0 : Added Autohide, Skins, Fixes
1.1 : Added ZIP file version.

What Is YKTarget?
YKTarget is a World of Warcraft addon created for making party/raid targeting easier and quicker. The previous incarnation of this addon was NYAN Raid Target which has now been abandoned and replaced with YKTarget.

YKT's official home is www.yetikitn.com/yktarget



**** Version 2 Updates & Changes ****

Slash command /ykt now forces hide.
Several skins added.
Auto Hide function added (only shows when targeting a mob).
Also hides when entering battlegrounds.
General bug fixes.

for more up to date info / pictures look at the officeal YKT page.

Enjoy


What Does It Do?

The addon displays targeting icons by default in the top center of the screen. A button for each raid target icon, 1 for clearing an icon, and 1 for ready check are all available.

The addon will only display when you are in a group or raid and have the ability to target. In other words you need to be a party leader, raid leader, or raid assistant for it to popup. This was done to keep your screen as clear as possible when you're not able to target.

In addition, the addon will not show while you are in Wintergrasp. This was added after testing and found that there was no real reason to show the addon whilst PvPing. The addon also hides during other battlegrounds.

There is one slash command for YKT and that is /ykt : this toggles force hiding the addon.

What Can I Customise?
At the moment you can offset its position on the screen. Alter its scale and its transparency to suit your play style and as of version 2 you can choose different skins.

2.3 : Fixed bug with force hide. Updated for patch 3.2.
2.2 : Increased X & Y values for larger screens. Also added manual entry for X & Y Values.
2.1 : Fixed bug on not loading default theme on first use.
2.0 : Added Autohide, Skins, Fixes
1.1 : Added ZIP file version.

Great work! Looks very promising. Any plans to allow additional "skins" in the future, once the addon itself is stable enough?

Unhappy Zip

When you provide a zip file like everyone else, i will try this addon out in a second. Unfortunately i could not be bothered downloading some rar unpacker just for this addon.

Linix, if you are using the defualt zip/unzipper for your operating system, you are missing out on alot of "cool stuff".

7zip is a free and extremely useful compressor, unzips/zips every extension known.

But each to their own, hope you don't miss out on anymore really nifty things ^^

I second and third the nomination for 7zip, its a very very useful tool and I am certain that you will also run into more .rar files on this site and I am also sure that a good portion of those authors will not be willing to change the .rar to a .zip for much of the same reason that you feel downloading a simple program to unzip rars is annoying, not a personal attack let me make that clear just wanted to state you may run into some other difficulties.

At any rate back to more important matters like when do you plan to have the implementation for being able to change sides its on available, being that I run a bar mod at the top would be nifty to have this on the left or right hand side of my screen. Also maybe another idea would be to allow it to be free floating as well as the ability to allow it to dock to any edge of the screen for those of up who want to fit it into our UIs and may not have a great spot for it on the edges of the screen. Anyways going to check this out right now (assuming the servers are up which I doubt) Keep up the great work! This look like a great addon so far !

Hi Miralen,

First of all I agree, 7Zip is free and easy to use, but this time I did cave and replace the rar with a zip.

There is in the options, 2 sliders for offsetting the position to wherever you want on the screen.

Pretty soon I'm hoping to get a skins feature added which xtoq mentioned earlier. Then plan is to have a skin which is made for either the top/bottom/left/right.

The skins will replace my original plan of rotation due to me having no luck getting it to work (it may return in a later version but is on hold right now).

I do plan though for each skin to have the option for each side of the screen.

Back to work, and hope you all enjoy the addon!

Great mod
Can you make it so it only shows when you have a target?

Thanks for suggestion. It's something that shouldn't be too hard to put in the upcoming release

Thanks for the new version Like the new skins pretty nice. I do have a request for the next update though

Is there anyway you can make it so it actually goes all the way to the top/bottom and left/right of my screen when i use the X,Y options? I take it the 1000/-1000 on the "X" is pixels? so if you use a higher resolution it won't move over any further same with the "Y". I use the resolution 1280 x 1024.

I guess an example of what I am trying to do could help

http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/w...erface-Min.jpg

That my current interface, right now your YKT pops up at the top center, I want it to actually pop up at the bottom right where my pet bar is and would like to turn it 180 degrees so the flat part touches my shot rotation panel. That way its easier for me to mark targets since I am a clicked I won't have to move my curson all the way to the top then back to the bottom.

Hi Ross,

No problem I will get to work on the movement options. As for rotation, thats still something on the cards but might take some time.

Hello,

Is it possible to say, show the icons only when you click a certain button, and that button only shows up when you have a target?

Thanks!
