Pure Gold 2 Raid UI
Pure Gold™ 2

This is the 2nd version of my Pure Gold™ Raid UI.
I know I've promised to make it all golden in color and stuff, but I'll just have to give you a rain check on that one!


Things to know before you begin:
  • Everything is scaled for a resolution of 1280x1024. I haven't included any other resolutions, so you might need a little tweaking
  • You have to disable the extra action bars in the default UI by yourself.
  • My Bartender4 actionbars, is set to only show bar1, but toggle to bar 3(right vertical) and 5 (bottom right) by pressing Ctrl or Shift. This may not suit everybody, so you'll have to adjust it to what you want. You can access Bartender4 settings by typing /bar.
  • Every setting is tuned for ME. Everything may not suit everybody, so you should be prepared to do a little tweaking yourself.
  • Your UI isn't ready in 5 minutes

Simple step-by-step install guide:
  • Back up your entire WTF-folder before doing anything at all. This will make sure all your own settings are stored. Just in case!
  • Unzip my UI to a temporary location
  • Rename "WTF\Account\YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME\" to the name of your account
  • Rename "WTF\Account\YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME\YOUR_REALM_NAME\" to the name of your realm
  • Rename "WTF\Account\YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME\YOUR_REALM_NAME\YOUR_CHARACTER_NAME\" to the name of your character
  • If you wish to keep your own settings in any of the included, you must delete the it's settings files from both of the following locations in my zip-file, BEFORE copying it over;
    • WTF\Account\YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME\SavedVariables\
    • WTF\Account\YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME\YOUR_REALM_NAME\YOUR_CHARACTER_NAME\SavedVariables\
  • Copy the WTF+Interface folders to your WoW game directory
  • Start the game
  • Make sure all the addons are activated, and "Load out of date addons" is [x] Checked
  • Log into your character
  • Open the video options from the main menu. You access the menu by clicking "Esc"
  • Check [Use UI scale], and slide it all the way down to the bottom

That covers the first part. Now you need to make the addons use the correct profiles, to clean up the current chaos!
  • Type /ct to bring up the CT menu. Choose "Settings Import" and select both CT_BuffMod and CT_Core. The UI will reload.
  • To position the CT timer where you want it, just shift+click and hold to drag it. Type /timer show/hide to show or hide it.
  • Type /bar to bring up the Bartender4 menu. Choose "Profiles" from the list on the left side. Choose "Copy From" and Select "Goldpaw - Draenor". If this doesn't exist, use "Use existing profile". It should be listed in at least one of those. This goes for all addons, so remember that.
  • Now type /rock. This should bring up the Rock Configuration window, where a whole lot of addons are gathered. To the top left there is a dropdown menu. The following addons are all on that list, and I want you to set the Profile in each one of them;
    • Quartz
    • SunnArt
  • Now it's time to visit the Blizzard Menu. Click "Esc", then go into Interface-AddOns.
    • Find ButtonFacade. Go into it's settings, choose "Profiles", and this time choose "Exisiting Profiles" and then "Goldpaw - Draenor"
    • Repeat the above for ClassTimer
    • Find Omen, expand it's menu, go to "Profiles". Here I think you can use "Copy From" and then the Correct profile.
    • Proximo. Here you must go "Profiles" - "Exisiting Profiles" again. Fun, eh?
    • Now Recount, expand it's menu, go to "Profiles", and this time "Copy From". The Recount config window will appear in the background, but ignore that. Close it now or later, everything is already set up. It will appear and disappear when needed. All by it's lonesome! Type /recount pause if you want it instantly.
    • Now SCT. Expand it's menu, go to "Profiles". After that, I first want you to click "Split SCTD Profile". Then you can click "Goldpaw - Draenor" in the list, and then "Load" from the bottom. You'll be getting a text message saying that the profile is loaded.

The rest of the addons should use the correct settings for this UI by default.

I did exactly what I wrote in the above steps myself when I tested this, and I tested it on a different account, with a different character, on a different server. It should work properly for everybody else too, but I kind of expect it to not. If I've forgotten something, you should find the AddOn's settings menu, and choose the profile "Goldpaw - Draenor" if such a thing exists. Since a lot of addons store their profiles by character name, I found it a bit tricky to set everything up. I though about editing the config-files to simply have my options as default options, but then I found another problem; default settings are stored in the addons themselves, not in the WTF-folder. So there goes that idea... oh well. You can handle a little work!

I haven't included any chat window configurations, so you'll have to manually resize and position yours. Right-click the tab title of the chat window to access it's settings. Click "Unlock" to make it movable and resizable.

Once you have one character set up proporly on a realm, you can use "Copy From" and "Yourcharacter - Yourrealm" in all of the configurations. It's just the first one which is tricky to set up.


The following addons are included;
ArkInventory
Bartender4
BugGrabber
BugSack
ButtunFacade
ButtunFacade_Onyx
ClassTimer
ClearFont2
CT_BuffMod
CT_Core
CT_Timer
GBoT
Grid
MBB
Omen

PitBull
Postal

The answer to that depends on what country's copyright laws you might be referring to.
