Bad news, everyone: I quit WoW, my account expires on August 11th, and unfortunately Taroven quit too. Unless someone takes over, this addon is officially abandoned. So tick that "Load out of date AddOns" check box and hope for the best!
I just wanted to say thanks for using my AddOns and for all the support, feedback, bug reports, and kind words. Very much appreciated. Bye!
Description
Displays timer bars for you most important abilities' target debuffs (including DoT ticks), cooldowns, and player buffs. All bars share a common time scale to make it easier to plan the next casts in your rotation.
Currently supported classes are Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin (Retribution), Priest (Shadow), Rogue, Shaman (Elemental) and Warlock.
Dezzimal was kind enough to put a video on youtube, demonstrating and explaining the addon. Edit: I just found another video showing the AddOn on a Destru Warlock.
Here's what it looks like in action on a Shadow Priest (at 1 FPS ):
The big white line is the current time. Future events are on the right side, past events on the left. So as time goes by, the events scroll from right to left.
The green bars are your cast bars. They use exactly the same times that your normal cast bar would display, with all haste modifiers applied.
You can also see cooldowns, DoTs, and their ticks (predicted in the future, and from the combat log in the past).
The white lines that appear before the cast times are the times when you press the button (send the cast message to the server). The difference between this line and the start of the cast is your lag.
Settings
There's no options GUI, and there won't be.
You can move the frame around by dragging this little handle in the upper right corner.
You can toggle the main frame with /eventhorizon or /ehz.
If you want to change anything else, you have to edit the config.lua files. You can open these files in any text editor, for example notepad.
We try to keep these files clean and well-documented. (Comments start with "--".) If an option is not as clear as it should be, please let us know.
Let's say you've changed some settings. When a new version comes out, you'd have to manually merge the config.lua file. To prevent this, you can create a file named EventHorizon/myconfig.lua. If present, this file will be read after config.lua, thus overwriting the settings in config.lua. Here's my myconfig.lua:
local config = EventHorizon.config -- <-always keep this as the first line config.bgcolor = {0,0,0,0.3} config.bordercolor = {0,0,0,0.3} config.gcdColor = {.5,.5,.5,.3} config.future = 15 config.width = 150*(15+3)/(9+3) config.iconborder = nil

Excellent addon that really helps with the increasingly complex SV hunter priority system in 3.1. My only question is it is possible to hide Arcane Shot while SV spec but have it visible when MM or BM spec. Possibly some modifier that if ES is present and talented then Arcane Shot is hidden?

EDIT: Better idea might be an opacity shift. Or both color and opacity to make it really distinct.

Re: Re: Re: Looking to change the order of items in EHZ display
There are always exceptions. Steady Shot, for example, is currently in an odd spot rotation-wise, and I'll probably end up tweaking that whenever I get the free time to do a sweep through the classes and specs to check everything over. Long story short: I can see your point and the objective of the ordering you've posted, however I can't personally agree with it. Many people use EventHorizon as a pure rotation helper rather than a simple cooldown/dot timer. I've had a few smacktarded-yet-geared DPSers in my guild download EH, and subsequently watched their DPS go to double or triple what it was - Simply because they knew what to do next. |

Re: Re: Looking to change the order of items in EHZ display
Black Arrow (if available) Serpent Sting Kill Shot Aimed/Multi Shot Arcane Shot Chimera Shot (if available) Explosive Shot (if available) Steady Shot I put Arcane before CS/ES not because the CD is longer but because you want to be able to use your hardest hitting shot (CS/ES for non-BM hunters) as soon as its available, potentially even interrupting a SS cast to do so. Having CS/ES right next to SS makes that the easiest to see. On a related note, does EventHorizon have a way of showing an ability as unavailable for reasons other than because its on CD? It would be nice if KS showed a CD like bar until the shot was actually usable. As for BA being missing from my install, I guess I had the previous version somehow, or perhaps you re-uploaded 0.10 because my version showed the base module being 3.1 compatible, but all the class addons being back-revved. I just swapped specs and BA immediately appeared in the EventHorizon window.

Is there a way to create two of these windows? I'm guessing remaking all the files in the original folder and added a 2 to the end of each would to it, but for it to be in one single set (for example having EventHorizon_Class and EventHorizon_ClassII checked in your addon list would enable two tables in game).

Re: Looking to change the order of items in EHZ display
I added Black Arrow in 0.10, is it not working? The spell ID is in the wowhead URL, wowhead.com/?spell=<spell ID>. |
