Introduction OpenRDX is the continuation of RDX and we are proud to announce the 7th version today with Wrath of The Lick King support. The original author was Venificus. RDX1 was born few weeks after Wow Retails start. RDX5 was certainly the most popular before Burning Crusade. RDX6 was created for Burning crusade and it became the first commercial addon. After Venificus has stopped the project, the community RDX users has created OpenRDX and we start to maintain it. The name OpenRDX is to indicate that it is now opensource. The currently leaders of openRDX are Chris (Christopher in wowI), raider, and myself Sigg. We have decided with some communities users to move OpenRDX on WoWI and to show you this great addon. I want to personnaly thanks Xenios, Rustyman, Aichi, Ai and all the community RDX users for helping us and by supporting us on this project. Thanks also for all retired members, Fridgid, Doccz, Gibypri and Venificus. Description This addon is in the category of big framework like the ace framework. But we haven't the same point of views. Ace is a framework for LUA developers. It provides common libraries and guides about how to develop addons. RDX is a framework for designers. It provides some powerfull editors INGAME to create objects and to run them. In Ace, you think addons, you are creating addons and improve it with new libraries. In RDX, you think objects, you are designing objects into packages. Objects are also considered as library you can reuse. For example, when you want to improve your UI, you will looking for an addon. In RDX, you can design it. The editors allows you to design very complexe fonctionnalities. The RDX Team is always improving the editors with new features. Please download this movie. All what you see are 100% OpenRDX. OpenRDX7 (thanks to the angel wings on rashgarroth EU for their help in this movie) Designers can store their creations in a OOBE (Out-Of-Box Experience) file. For users, you just need to download and run OOBE's content. You can also use the transfert system INGAME to receive packages from designers (even a complete UI if you want). (We gonna help WowI to reduce bandwidth lol) Examples of what you can design : - singleframes - raidframes - artframes - action bars, rune bar - bossmods - tools, decursive, thread, dpsmeters, totems, prayer of mending watch, warrior shout etc .... OpenRDX doesn't cover : - itembags - modification of blizzard UI - map, quest - auction - others Performances See by yourself how OpenRDX will help you to gain fps and memory. - Editors generate code on the fly making unitframe as light as oUF - Multiplexer events, use to throttle massive events and refresh frames - Each new UI take almost 150 ko memory - VFL Profiler, see CPU/Memory used for each window Where to begin http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=30454 About usage guides and editors, visit our forums.
