gxCooldowns  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.5a
by: Guardix [More]

Description
gxCooldowns is a cooldown AddOn that provides information through icons and a cooldown spiral.
It tries to be as efficient as possible while only checking for cooldown information for the spell you cast at the given moment.
The AddOn itself does not provide visual numbers, you will need to have OmniCC to get those.
It has a powerful and easy growth management and you can choose between left, right, up, down...
You can even make it grow evenly in two directions.

Spells, pet abilities, items and engineering enchants are supported.

You may blacklist spells you don't wish to track.


New in 1.5!

  • ButtonFacade support
  • In-game configuration, widgets handled by tekKonfig
  • A new sexy spellschool lockdown feature!

1.5a
- Changed the minimum value of the button gap to -10.

1.5
- Added maximum duration setting.
- Now scans item and spell cooldowns on login.
- Removed the text output for when spells are interrupted. Properly fixed and replaced with a shiny border around the spell that was interrupted.
- In-game configuration.
- No longer watches Divine Favor cooldown as a special occasion.

1.4
- minDuration, a new setting that allows you to set the minimum duration of triggered cooldowns.
- Update 'Feral Charge - Bear' when 'Feral Charge - Cat' is cast, as they share cooldown timings.
- Redid the items part to now recognize the item being used from it's spell. For example, Mana potions have a spell called 'Restore Mana', when this is cast it'll look up the items table to recognize if an item in the table has that spell as item spell (GetItemSpell).
- Redid the enchant part. It now scans your gear for enchants of our wish when we log in and updates an item if you un- or equip it. This way, when you cast a spell it looks up the spell directly to a slotID.
an item that has it as spell.
- Added Stealth and Prowl to our special occasions.
- Getting ready for localization for the new spell lock feature.

1.3
- Now scans the spellbook when you reload your UI or when you log in.

1.2a
- Reworked the scanning of enchants. It should hopefully not crash the client anymore.
- Fixed an error that was caused when swapping talents, when you had an ability on cd that only was present in the other spec.

1.2
- Now scans your gear for enchants like Nitro Boosts (let me know if it doesn't work or if it throws errors).
- Minor fix for some pet error.

1.1
- Added a blacklist.
- Moved configuration to an external file.

1.0
- Initial release.

Hey, love ur addon, one small problem though.

I'm a bear tank and for some reason your addon does not show the 6 second CD for my swipe ability. It shows all my other CD's just fine.

Any ideas? =/

Hello there, got a few qustions about engineering procs / abilities.

Currently, I can't make it show Nitro Boost (Engineering Feet Enchant) nor Hyperspeed Accelerators (Engineering Glove Enchant).

I know you said they support engineering items, and you can also add id/names in the options, but still I can't make them work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance, and sorry if this have been clarified.

Exactly what I wanted, tyvvvvvm!
I'm glad you like it

Cheers for the update mate. Looks way better now.

Can you perhaps give us the option to make the spacing even smaller? With the ButtonFacade_PixelSkin ... skin, even at the lowest spacing they're still miles apart from each other.

Cheers,


Led

I don't know if I'll get the next version out in time before the PTR patch is pushed to live, but the only two things that should be changed to make it work properly are:
GetSpellName -> GetSpellBookItemName
and the removal of Divine Favor from specialOccasions

TOC version number should probably be changed too to 40000.

I changed the way the AddOn handles spell school lockdowns. The icons now have a model (autocast shine thingy) and is shown whenever a regular spell or channeled spell is interrupted. It is then colored by school, so if your fireball is interrupted a red glow will show up on the fireball icon.
With this change I also removed the interrupt message, combat text addons should warn you anyway.

I completely removed the support of gxMedia, so the standard look will be blizzardish buttons. I advice you to use the ButtonFacade: Caith skin (I use it myself).

I made a scan function, so now all the items in the itemSpells table will be scanned when you /reloadui... and not to forget about the engineering enchanted items, those are scanned too.

I didn't push these changes to my git repository yet, but I will sooner or later (I still have some things to change/clean up)

Actually, I have these issues with 1.4. It should be the latest version...

Btw, anything I can do in cooldownConfig.lua to make it scan items when reload?
not currently, I am trying to find a decent way to have both items and abilities scanned when you log in.

1. The positioning works fine with horizontal layout. But icons don't show up with vertical. I do it in this way settings.growHorizontal = false. Then I open wow and cast some spells that have cd, but there is no timer shows up.

2. If I reload ui while pvp trinket is cooling down, the timer of pvp trinket disappears. Timers of other spells still show up.

3. If I reload ui while spells are cooling down, the timers end up earlier than the spells exactly cool down. I'm using OmniCC. So, I see timers disappear when OmniCC is still counting down.
1. That is something I have already fixed, please download the newest version.

2. Only your spells are scanned when you reload your interface. That is why items aren't shown.

3. That is also fixed, but it is more of a workaround due to the update script returning a wrong value.

It happens most frequently when I use Death and Decay and Death Strike.
I just went onto my death knight to test those abilities. I can say that I don't get any errors. Are you sure you are using the latest version?

Line 342 seems to be:
if (enabled == 1 and duration > settings.minDuration and (settings.maxDuration and duration < settings.maxDuration or true)) then
so, one of these are nil. The maxDuration is nil by default, so did you change any configuration?

minDuration cannot be nil in this situation, at least I didn't make work if it is.
