hAuras

Version: 0.0.3
by: hungtar [More]

please accept my apology for abandoning this addon and not answering your support requests.

I don't play wow anymore and thus any request will remain unaswered.



About

This is the product of my (ongoing) struggle with the animations stuff built into WoW.

While it can be an unbelievable PITA to get anything to work without resorting to self made Animation object with OnUpdate handlers to make things do stuff, the results (in terms of CPU time used in the addon itself) are quiet nice.

The problems with the built in animation system start to manifest on the transition from fadein to idle state as It is not really possible to change properties of the frame animated.

Anyway, this AddOn does stuff like Power Auras does. But without a configuration GUI. And without anything else that would make your life easier.

Usage

Copy myAruas_example.lua to myAuras.lua and edit as you see fit. hAurasDB.player are auras on you, hAurasDB.target on your current target. Basically hAurasDB.<unitID> should work for any unit id. There is no documentation besides the example auras file. At the moment it's not possible to change the animation style per aura (and if you could, it would just frustrate you).


Credits

Both aura textures taken from Power Auras

version 0.0.3:
- forgot to remove some debug code. oops.

version 0.0.2:
- support for dual spec and aura stacks added.

version 0.0.1:
- first release.

I had the following requests, I actually hope you take this much further. You are very impressive with your addons and appear to be working very hard on them!

1. Per aura animations (i understand the frustration part but a bunch of animations capable with just a simple variable).

2. Chained Auras. IE show Aspect of the Viper warning if your mana is < 20% and then change the color of the Aura or have another aura that will only show if you have that buff on and your mana is > 90% etc. Custom settings like this.


Let me know if I can help at all. You should also setup donation links so we can maybe... make this more worth your while ?

Also is it possible to only let it show when procs reach a surden stack size.. like shaman maelstrom weapon effect ?

Otherwise I am playing with it now and loving it.
Not different settings but you can specify to only show an aura in a certain spec in 0.0.2. If you want an aura to show in both specs you have to leave the spec field out of the auras table. Also added buff stacks support.
