DXE: Extended Alerts

Updates

  • 26/07/10 - v0.1 Uploaded
  • 27/07/10 - v0.2 Fixed hooking error, updated display code
  • 28/07/10 - Added warnings for any current and future encounters. Just check "Flash Screen" on any alert to enable an extended alert.
  • 28/07/10 - Added ability to colour custom alerts in the lua file.
What is it?
When making the original switch from Deadly Boss mods to DXE, I found it very uncomfortable not being able to have a quick text notification of important events. At the time DXE only supported flashes, which were cryptic to me and caused a lot of judgement errors.

I created an addon to mimick DBMs alert style for important events, mainly for guild use (Ability to customize alerts to strategies!) and have been updating it with content ever since.

DXE: Extended Alerts is a quick solution to getting nice looking, quick textual alerts for important events. No need to download and customize a SCT mod and put up with cryptic alert text on your screen like the current implementation of large text alerts in DXE, Just install and enjoy.

What does it include?
Currently I have only included alerts for ICC and Halion, these are:
  • Marrowgar
    • Standing in Cold Flame
    • Bone Storm
  • LDW
    • Standing in Death and Decay
  • Gunship
    • Deep Freeze
  • Festergut
    • Spores
    • [Heroic] Malleable Goo
  • Rotface
    • Slime Spray
    • Slime Explosion
    • Standing in Slime
    • Mutated Infection on You
  • Putricide
    • Malleable Goo
    • Standing in Slime
    • Ooze targetting you
    • [Heroic] Unbound Plague on You
  • Blood Princes
    • Inferno Flame on You
    • Empowered Shock Vortex
  • BQL
    • When you have been bitten
    • Flames on You
    • Pact on You
  • Valithria
    • Standing in Mana Voids
  • Sindragosa
    • Unchained Magic on You
    • Ice Tomb on You
    • Blistering Cold
  • Lich King
    • [Heroic] Shadow Trap
    • Necrotic Plague on You
    • Defile on You
    • Defile near you
  • Halion
    • Fiery Combustion on You
    • Soul Consumption on You
    • TWILIGHT CUTTERS!

Extra Alerts?
If you wish to add an alert yourself you can do so at the top of the main lua file.
Code:
[alert text(from encounters file)] = "Alert Message",
This will create a custom alert for you.

If you wish to add a generic alert simply check the "Flash Screen" check box for that alert under the DXE options.
