CursorCastbar  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.5b
by: Duugu, humfras

CursorCastBar adds circular cast bar(s) to your mouse cursor.

Cast bar, Global Cooldown Bar, Mirror Bar, Remaining cast time, Spell Name, Spell Icon, and more.

The configuration is done via the Blizzard interface options.


TO DO (in no particular order):

  • Healing Bar - incoming heal/overheal for current cast/target
  • optional focus castbar
  • optional round spell icons
  • modifier/key to temporary hide the bars or set the opacity to very low (eg in critical situations)
  • more bar layout options (start point, end point, etc)
  • text for the mirror bar


Known Bugs:
  • Bug: Mac client crashes with high-res textures. This is known a game bug within the Mac client. It happens with large textures above 512*512 pixels.
    Solution: Don't choose the high-res bar textures. Choose textures 1, 2, or 3. The game shouldn't crash with them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear user


My WoW subscriptions end in may 2011. After more than six years playing WoW and developing addons I absolutely can't find a reason to continue. The direction Blizzard is steering with WoW is more than unfruitful.
The game is dead. It's an empty shell. A sad moment, but that's the way it is.


This means of course all of my addons are discontinued as from now. Thank you very much for using them and for providing me feedback and input. A very special thank you goes to the few people who donated for them. There would be much more and better stuff if more people would act like you. Thank you.


I hereby explicitly reject any attempts to continue, take over or reuse this addon, the addons source code, the contents or parts of it.
If you are willing and able to continue this addon I may grant you the right to do this if you contact me, ask for it, and convince me that you are able to do it in the long run.


I’m looking forward to meet everyone of you again in SWTOR.


All the best to you

Duugu

No.1 is a config bug. You have to reconfig CCB.
No.2 is a loading bug, it should be fixed with 2.2.9

I get this error on my Druid when I login in Flight form (not sure about bear, moonkin, cat, or treeform).

I also get this same error on my Shaman when I login in Ghost Wolf form.

This is already possible. Just separate the SpellNames with a semicolon (.

So for the HolyWord spells it should be:
Code:
Holy Word: Serenity;Holy Word: Sanctuary;Holy Word: Chastise
IMPORTANT: Do NOT put spaces around the semicolon!

Please keep in mind that if any of this abilities is on cooldown, the indicator will be triggered, regardless of your Chakra state.

As another example, it doesn't work with the Holy Paladin proc called Daybreak, either.
Procs like this should now (v2.2.3) be recognized when you check for your Holy Shock cooldown.

There may also be some issues if a cast starts but does not fully complete. I think I have seen a case where the target of a Penance died in the middle of the cast, and the spell went on c/d but the indicator didn't show it as such.
This should be fixed, too. But it should have worked with the previous cooldown handling aswell.

CCB is using a static cooldown duration. My intends are to change it to use the actual cooldown duration of the tracked spell to update properly when it's cooldown duration is shortened or removed (e.g. by using Cold Snap as a mage).

2) The Cooldown Indicators are working for my Shaman's Riptide and Unleash Elements. Ensure you have entered a cooldown duration in the box above the one for the spell name.

Great to see that this indispensible add-on (indispensible for me, at least) will live on!

Continuation

Since Duugu retires from WoW, let's give him a farewell and best luck for his future paths.
I will try to keep up the high-quality work he showed with CursorCastbar.

Thanks.

Spell indicators seem not to be working in 4.1.

Will update if I can narrow the problem or propose a fix.

Edit: OK, I have gotten it to work. If anyone wants to hotfix their own version, you need to make the following changes in CursorCastbar.lua between lines 700 and 745:

arg4 -> arg5
arg10 -> arg11

(in other words, change every occurrence of those variables, between the indicated lines - there should be 1 arg4 and 4 arg10's that need changing)

No guarantees that something else isn't broken, of course.
