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 So tick that "Load out of date AddOns" check box and hope for the best!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

Timerbarstuff... I like it. Sounds like a new WoWI category to me.

xtoq, sounds reasonable, I'll keep it simple though. Did you see my comment below on Goose?
xeross, this addon is specifically for longer Boss fights, where it's helpful to plan ahead in order to maximize your DPS output. While leveling, just use one of the many addons out there to track cooldowns, buffs, debuffs etc., like DoTimer, ForteXorcist, or Quartz. |

I have a feature request. Can you make a slash command for hiding the window? Or something. I don't want to have to reload my ui everytime i want to hide it. Great addon though!

I believe whichever spell went up first stays up, as long as it is refreshed. |

brotherhobbes, thanks for the list. I wonder how Improved Scorch and the corresponding Frost debuff interact. Does one replace the other?
Toin7, yea you have to delete the SavedVar if you used 0.7. Sorry, didn't think of that. ._. Will add the mangle cooldown in the next release. For now, it's one line you'd have to add: Code:
-- Mangle - Bear self:NewSpell({ spellID = 33878, debuff = true, cooldown = true, stance = 1, requiredTalent = {2,26}, }) |

Hrm, downloaded the 0.7a revision and now I get:
[2009/02/18 10:49:35-940-x1]: EventHorizon-0.7a\EventHorizon.lua:908: bad argument #1 to 'unpack' (table expected, got nil) EventHorizon-0.7a\EventHorizon.lua:908: in function `Initialize' EventHorizon-0.7a\EventHorizon.lua:968: in function `?' EventHorizon-0.7a\EventHorizon.lua:955: in function <Interface\AddOns\EventHorizon\EventHorizon.lua:955> --- EDIT: Looks like I fixed it by clearing my SV of event horizon first. EDIT2: Any chance the Druid module in bear form can show the CD on mangle like it does for the abilities on a CD?

I get why you don't want to have an ingame config, but it does make upgrading more difficult.
Mage: Improved Scorch Rogue: Expose Armor -- commented out currently Druid: Mangle -- was already mentioned Druid: Faerie Fire |

Which is one of the reasons why I won't add a GUI config. It requires that all the settings are stored in a SavedVariable. I end up breaking the default settings, but don't notice it, because I'd have to manually delete the SavedVar to test it.
Anyways, fixed in v0.7a. Toin7, thank you for reporting it! |

I'm getting an error when I try installing this addon.
[2009/02/17 22:32:29-936-x1]: EventHorizon-0.7\EventHorizon.lua:905: EventHorizonHandle:SetPoint(): EventHorizonFrame is dependent on this EventHorizon-0.7\EventHorizon.lua:905: in function `Initialize' EventHorizon-0.7\EventHorizon.lua:966: in function `?' EventHorizon-0.7\EventHorizon.lua:953: in function <Interface\AddOns\EventHorizon\EventHorizon.lua:953> --- In regards the de/buffs being provided by others. Mangle is probably one as a bear or cat can provide it in the raid, or trauma from an arms warrior. |
