Faceroller

Version: 0.2.9

by: hungtar [More]

please accept my apology for abandoning this addon and not answering your support requests.

I don't play wow anymore and thus any request will remain unaswered.

What is Faceroller?

Faceroller is an addon in the spirit of Event Horizon with the look of Faceshooter. It's focus lies on using a minimal amount of screen space while showing anything you need to know at the moment.

It will show you only one icon on the screen: the highest priority ability, which should be used next. Once the ability was used, it will reevaluate all cooldowns and debuffs on your target and present you the next spell.

As this needs tracking of cooldowns and debuffs and making decisions what to suggest when, Faceroller is split into modules. And to get some use out of Faceroller, you will need a module that fits your talent spec (See below for a list of modules).

You will get little or no use out of Faceroller if your toon is below level 80!

What Faceroller is NOT

First and foremost, Faceroller is not all knowing. It only keeps track of your current target and therefore can assist you only with a single target.

How to use Faceroller

First, you will need a module that works with your spec. There are currently modules available for the following specs:

Warrior:
- Arms
- Fury
- Prot 1 (included, experimental*, by Opaque)
- Prot 2
Shadow Priest
Balance Druid
Deathknight:
- Frost 1 (included, experimental*, by hectolight, module name: dkdwfrost)
- Frost 2 (included, experimental*, by Kallsuh, module name: dkdwfrost_Kall)
- unholy
- blood
Paladin:
- Retribution
- Prot (included, experimental*, by lloydbates)
Warlock:
Hunter:
- mm/sv/bm hunters (included, all in one module named simplehunter)
Shaman:
- Enhancement (included)
- Elemental (included, experimental*)
Mage:
- FFB (included, experimental*)
- Arcane (included, experimental*)
Rogue:
- Combat

* These modules may not always work as expected. If they don't, please leave a comment.

If you see the message "init failed for module ... (Reason: none given)" enable debug output with /fr debug. Make sure your character knows all the spells, required by the module you are using, before reporting it as a bug!

Install a module of your choice along with Faceroller. Start WoW. You can fire up the GUI with /fr config or by clicking on the LDB plugin (if you have a broker display).

Note: Faceroller rememberrs different modules for both specs, if you have dual spec. If you switch specs for the first time after installing Faceroller, don't forget to configure!

Note: All modules require your character to be level 80 to work!

Getting started with your own module

Writing your own module can be as easy as editing a lua table. See Faceroller_EasyExample (included in the zip) for an example how that works.

If the possibilities provided by the Easy* API are too restraining, you will need some knowledge of lua or you will have a hard time writing your own module. Have a look at Faceroller_ExampleModule (included in the zip). It's a simple module that does the same as Faceroller_EasyExample but with a more complex API. The comments are quiet extensive and should give you a good overview how things work.

The module Faceroller_SimpleEnhancementShaman uses a mixture of both and might help you as well with getting started.

Also, have a look at the documentation at github. If you have further questions, leave a comment.

Want to share your module?

If you wrote a module but you don't want to maintain it yourself, i can include it in the zip here. Just send me a PM or leave a comment where i can find your module. Note: since i won't be able to test all modules, new included modules will be marked as experimental for a few weeks. If too many people complain about an experimental module, it will get deleted. So please make sure it really works.

Following is a (possibly incomplete) list of specs, for which there is currently no module:

Feral Druid
Rogue: assassination, subtlety

hungtar A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 3 File comments: 151 Uploads: 9	i feel uneasy about how i handled that destruction warlock module thing. I added a module to my distribution here, without being able to verify it works as intended. That was my first mistake. The second was to add it while the API is still not finished: some changes i made may have influenced the proper functioning of the module even though it may have worked as intended under an earier version of the API. So i decided that in order to avoid making the same mistake twice, i will not include another module in the distribution until the API has reached a stable state (presumably this will be no earlier than version 0.1.0). Once the API is somewhat stable, there is still going to be need for some kind of quality control. But let's tackle this issue when it arises

I have an affliction module in the works

I will check out the new changes.

EDIT: will test the code this evening after raid hope it works... Last edited by d77 : 10-30-09 at 08:42 AM.

thanks for the attention and sorry for the long post.

Would appreciate it, if you would test your module code

Adding bloodlust is not such a good idea as it is not part of your "rotation": you use lust when it's called for, not every time it's ready (or maybe you do, but that would be really weird

)

thanks.

Combo points are not tracked. If you want to figure out how many combo points you have on the target, use the standard wow api. GetComboPoints("player", "target") should return the number of combo points you have on your target (didn't try that though).

http://rgd87.gorodok.net/Faceroller_...ck_3.2.2.1.zip

Priority:
1) Immolate

3) Conflagrate
4) Chaos Bolt
5) Refresh Glyph of life tap if needed
6) Incinerate
