This is the code i was copying from:

  local addon, ns = ...
  local cfg = ns.cfg
  local cast = CreateFrame("Frame")

  -- special thanks to Allez for coming up with this solution

  --hand the lib to the namespace for further usage
  ns.cast = cast

(yes im trying to add tick marks aswell)

Now i don't know if any of this has to do with fade-out effect, but there is not much else about castbar in the layout(oUF_Fail).

I tired to add ns.OnCastbarUpdate, ns.PostCastStop ect. in frame.lua, and set the CompleteColor to just some random color. End result is: nothing happens:S Tbh i'm kida confused:S
