Hitshade UI (1680x1050)
HITSHADE UI v3.0

1680x1050

Hitshade UI is a complete raid compilation with an emphasis on minimalistic screen and memory usage. (5-6Mb during raids) I loved the design of TUKUI and was inspired to create a compilation in the same vein, customized for raiders. Hence the birth of Hitshade UI.

You can view v2.1 in in action here.

I take no credit for the creation of mods contained, only some very minimal adjustments.

INSTALLATION:

- Backup and then delete your "Fonts" "Interface" and "WTF" folders
- Copy the folders "WTF" "Fonts" and "Interface" to your World of Warcraft folder.
- Rename "YOURACCOUNT" to your accountname.
- Rename "YOURREALM" to your server name.
- Rename the various character templates to your characters name.



ADDON LIST:
-AzCastbar - Castbar replacement
-Align – On screen grid for easy alignment of ui elements
-Ampere – Turn addons on and off without the need to log out
-aTotemBar – Shaman totem bar
-AuctionLite – Makes the auction house a breeze
-BasicBrokers - Collection of simple Data Broker Addons (Gold, XP, Quests, Bags, Durability)
-BasicChatMods – Simple no nonsense chat mod
-Broker CPU/Memory/Performance - Data Broker plugin for CPU/Memory Usage/FPS/Latency
-caelNamePlates – Sexy nameplates addon
-cargBags – Modular bag framework
-cargBags_Pernobilis – layout for cargBags
-ChatSounds – Provides sounds for chat channels
-dMiniMap2 - Lightweight Minimap replacement
-DXE – Deus Vox Encounters (think DBM on steroids)
-EasyMail – Making mail easier
-ForteXorcist – Suite including CD and spell timers
-GnomishVendorShrinker – Simple compact vendor frames
-Leatrix_GFX - Improve Performance by modifying hidden settings in the client
-LitePanels - UI Panel framework

-pError - Filter our UIError spam

-rTimeToDie - Small mod that calculates the time left until a boss is going die
-SharedMedia – Additional fonts, bars, borders for UI customization
-sThreatMeter2 – Very lightweight threat meter
-tekJunkSeller – automatically sell grey items at a vendor
-tekKompare – lightweight replacement for EquipCompare
-teksLoot – lightweight group loot addon
-TipTac – Customizable tool tip replacement


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Many addons have had their customization disabled. To turn them back on, you can use Ampere (from the in game interface menu) to load their options on demand and make any adjustments required.

I will attempt to keep this UI as updated as possible, however I highly suggest using Minion to accomplish this for you. Only a couple of the addons listed above are not available for update via the Minion client.

In a future version I plan to include a text file with all the /slash commands necessary for modification of the UI. For now, please follow the hyperlinks for addon information. Feel free to post any comments, questions or suggestions! I will do my best to respond in a timely fashion. I hope you enjoy Hitshade UI!



A HUGE thank you to all the addon authors who made this compilation possible.

As far as I know, there isn't currently a way to choose which bars are hidden when using a vehicle. As I understand, rActionBarStyler is simply designed to allow manipulation of the in game action bars.

Since the standard UI hides all other buttons while in a vehicle I assume nothing was written in to the addon to change this behavior.

I dont have any plans to update this addon until 3.3 goes live.

Based on the behavior Ive seen on the PTR, there are a lot of updates that will need to occur in order for this ui to remain functional. Of course, this is highly dependant on the addon authors but rest assured I'll update asap!

I play on a 2.5 year old laptop, so my frame rate is not the best and I need to keep memory usage down as much as possible.
I would suggest Skada

Because its modular you can disable everything you dont want to track, reducing the strain on your system. While its much more lightweight than recount, unfortunately any damage meter generally uses a large chunk of memory and cpu cycles that will further reduce your raid performance. Unless you find it absolutely necessary I would probably run without a meter at all and just rely on your guild mates.

You could adjust the ui scale in your game options menu to further increase the size of fonts, etc. Sadly, there is no easy fix.

I may look at making this ui compatible with other resolutions in the future, but for the moment it seems unlikely.

Many of the addons also include the ability to adjust text size (oUF_Nivaya, Skada, sThreatMeter, MSBT all have this ability built in to their options). The others can have their scale adjusted if the text size itself cant be changed.

hi again

I just saw your update right now and realized you took out the tpanel from TUKUI. Is there any possibility now that you maybe add a second bar?
For me, there are way too less buttons ^^

thanks
greets

When i didnt copy my toons name to the folder name of one of the presets it worked though everything was kind of jumbled on the screen so it will take some work.

One last question, what are you using for the boss v-frame in the jaraxxus screenshot? i use aloft at the moment but i think i like the simpler one better

Good to hear its working, at least somewhat!


What you are seeing is:
-caelNamePlates – Sexy nameplates addon

Which is included in this compilation. (If you have aloft running as well there would likely be a conflict preventing you from seeing one or the other). Also of note: caelNamePlates will turn nameplates on and off based on being in/out of combat.

Is there any way to expand the panel of the actionbar so that i could place 2 bars in it? Just one more bar above the standard one.
(I exchanged your bar-addon with bartender O:-) )

thanks
Unfortunately no, at least not without having to edit the code. This is tPanel which comes directly from TUKUI, and was designed for a specific purpose with no in game configuration.

You could download kgpanels to create a new panel frame and replace tPanels if you wanted to. Just be aware that some of the data at the bottom of your screen would be lost (durability, gold, etc.) You would want to download additional broker displays to show the information on NinjaPanel. I suggest BasicBrokers if you plan on going this route.

Mind you, you dont necessarily have to remove tPanels, you could run kgPanels at the same time and not lose anything.
