ArkiveUI - Rebirth

Version: 1.1
by: ph34rt3hcute1 [More]

Created by Arkive - ArkiveUI
Maintained by ph34rt3hcute1

History from ph34rt3hcute1:

I too was a long time user of MazzleUI and like Arkive was saddened when it ceased support. I was overjoyed when I discovered ArkiveUI...it was everything MazzleUI was but, in my opinion, better. Unfortunately, like with MazzleUI, ArkiveUI also ceased support but I have been able to keep the UI together and going on my own. With Arkive's blessing I have finally packaged this up and provided instructions on how to setup this amazing UI for yourself.

History from ArkiveUI:

I was a long time user of MazzleUI, another compilation hosted on WowInterface. When 2.2 hit and bugs plagued it (for a while), I decided to craft my own compilation for myself and my wife (and friends). I've started from scratch with my preferred list of addons and tailored it to my liking, but you'll still find most of the layout to be HEAVILY Mazzle inspired. I loved it every second I used it, so if you're reading this Mazzle, thanks If you're not a fan of that UI, or prefer minimalist UI's, this probably isn't for you

The setup is very easy. You'll find instructions in the root of the zip file. I've created my own in-game installer to handle the profile-specific and the enabling/disabling of class-specific addons with more features to be added soon.

The UI includes a very basic button layout, but there's tons of space in the button panels to do whatever you like. Also, the compilation doesn't rely on Dominos, so if you prefer Bartender or another bar mod, knock yourself out Also, you'll find that most of the keys around the left side of the keyboard have had their function mapped to the Ctrl key (such as Ctrl-C to open the character window). This will allow you to make better use of those keys for combat situations instead of wasting them on non-critical functions like sitting.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------


I understand that not everyone wants the whole kitchen sink. If you gave it a try and found that it was a bit much for you, but saw a few things you liked, I hope you'll download those authors' mods and continue using them. To help you identify the mods that make up the compilation, I'll include a fairly complete list (minus libs) with basic decriptions - I am still building this list, please be patient as it is not all inclusive yet.:

--------------------------------
--- ERROR MANAGEMENT ---
--------------------------------
!BlizzBugsSuck - General Community driven bug fixes.
!BugGrabber - See a bug? Grab a bug! (Works in conjunction with BugSack)

-------------------------------------
--- EQUIPMENT MANAGEMENT ---
-------------------------------------
!MoncaiCompare - Compare items side by side with what you have equipped. (Replacement for EquipCompare)
AdiBags - displays the content of your bags in one view, distributed into several sections using smart filters. (Replacement for Combuctor)
Auctionator - Auction House addon
AutoLootPlus - Improves the speed of Blizzard's default auto looting.

------------------------
--- INFORMATION ---
------------------------
Bazooka - Data Broker Bar (Replacement for DockingStation)

--------------
--- MISC ---
--------------
_NPCScan - looks for rare/special mobs
AddonLoader - loads other addons automatically, as and when they are needed, which speeds up the logon process.
AutoBar - A Multi-bar mod that automatically adds potions, water, food, quest and other items you specify into buttons for easy use.
BetterAddonList - Addon Manager. (Replacement for ACP)

-------------------
--- UI / CORE ---
-------------------
AdiButtonAuras - Display auras, and more, on action buttons. (replacement for Inline Aura)
AdiCastBar - A small, simple casting bar addon. (replacement for Cast Bar)
ArkiveUI - Self Explanatory?
Aurora - Makes things beautiful, this is also why there are so many extra folders under Interface before Addons.

Optional Files (0)

fataiity loop

Loved Mazzle, was a huge fan of Arkive and totally excited to see this come up in my search results... unfortunately even after updating the addons, clicking the class button in Arkive appears to do nothing and I get a "Fatality!" loop...

Is this actually not usable currently or am I in some odd broken state?

And lastly, thanks for the work in keeping an amazing UI alive!

Legion Pre-Patch Update

Ok I have submitted an update that fixes issues with the setup and it seems like most of the UI is working (at least in the looks department) there are still a few addons needing updating so if you enable all addons you will likely have error alerts in BugSack.

Notable Broken Addons at time of writing:
Autobar
Broker: Garrison
Kui Nameplates Elite
Kui Nameplates Spell Alert
Kui Nameplates Trivial
Simple iLevel

Throwing Errors but seem to work:
idTip
SorhaQuestLog
ToyBoxQ
TipTac

Other Issues:
Seems to be XP text at the very top center of screen, not sure what is causing that just yet.

EDIT: I should note, be sure to update addons before loading in game as I have not repackaged the addons provided as of yet.

I should be testing it out here in a few (waiting on Blizz to tell me the game files are ok) but in my experience most of the UI is dependent on the addons comprising it. Meaning once they are updated it "should" fix most if not all problems.

*EDIT* Yea several key addons are broken best bet is to wait on the addon developers to update...I will keep an eye on it and update the status as things progress.
Thanks for the fast reply!! Can't wait to start using the UI again

hmm I think there are settings in AdiButtonAuras to return that feature if not feel free to swap out for an addon that does. If I am wrong can you give me more information incase I am not understanding right (not familiar with those spells you mentioned).

First off: There is no auto-repair and autosell trash. Is it nessescary to get individual addons for this or is it in there somewhere?
In my own version I have a few other addons included, its possible I pulled the one that was providing this feature. That said, I have had a lot of luck swapping in and out addons so if you have one you want to use feel free to add it on your copy. I will try to find which addon is doing the auto-repair and autosell trash in mine in the mean time.

Second: I like to have my graphics on ultra. When i install this it changes all my personal graphics settings.
Furthermore it changes the UI scale.. This is actually the worst. I might be a bit blind, but I never had problems with arkive before.. It had a reasonable scale and size.. This however a little too small now
Have tried to change the ui scale after the install and then all boxes is on eachother or partly out of the screen. This is sad really So any way around this so it fits or is this too hard to add?
That's weird that it changes your graphic settings, my guess is that you are deleting your config.wtf file in the WTF folder when you setup the UI (this file holds all your settings like graphics and audio). Arkive UI has always (if memory serves) be locked to a specific aspect ration, 1.6 near the end of life contributors provided alternate aspect ratios one of which i was using for 1.77. Sadly I am not so much a creator as I am a maintainer but I am not opposed to anyone making this work for alternate aspect ratios and UI scales.

Third: Is this addon package suitable for all resolutions or certain scales? Not everyone is using 1920*1080 monitors.. In the old version it was said clearly to have a certain ui or atleast x*y ratio. Think it was 1.6 or something
What is the status of this now? And we had to before we entered the game choose the resolution and save the config.wtf file.. Is this still nessescary?
I doubt it now, as it changes all personal graphic settings chosen prior to the installation.
Yea, I included the 1.77 aspect ratio files. If you remove the folder called ArkiveUITextures_177 it should go back to the 1.6 scale other than that as mentioned above I would or someone else would need to make layouts for those ratios.

Apart from that: Great job remaking ArkiveUI. Arkive was the best UI package I've ever had. Was really sad to see it go back then.
Looking forward to hear about all features in this package that just need to be activated through some sort of command. And maybe even a tweaked version where ui scale doesnt have to be extremely small

Thank you very much for your feedback, I wish I could say I am as good as Arkive but I really am more of just a maintainer of this wonderful UI....that said I will try my best to change/fix/improve things the users want.
