MetaHud

Version: 20400-3

by: MetaHawk [More]

This addon adds a HUD to your UI, showing all the information normally displayed by the Player and Target frames and more.
Always thought it was a shame that Drathal's HUD was given up on the way it was so, I have taken the core of that code and MetaMorphed it.
Added some features which I thought were pretty useful, and removed some of the excess stuff. Decided to release it, as no doubt there are others who enjoyed this as much as me.
Full credit to the original author of course, for the initial code.

Features:
=========
Health/Mana Bars colour levels.
All Bars are animated.
Shows Level, Name, Class and Elite/Boss, Pet, NPC.
4 Alpha Settings for: Combat/Target selected/No Target/Player is regging.
4 Displaymodes for Health/Mana.
Many positioning and Scaling Options.
Hide Blizzard Player/Targetframe.
Target Menu with Leftclick on Targetname.
Player Menu with Rightclick on Playername.
Castingbar with Cast-time.
Option to hide Petbars.
Option to hide Targetbars/Text.
Load-on-Demand configuration display.
Target's Target display - click to switch to that target.
Aggro alert - audible and visual warnings.
Target PvP status.
Self PvP status.
Status icons for Rested, Combat, Raid leader, and Loot Master.
Target distance display.
Support for Mobhealth, Mobinfo2, and Mobhealth2.
FlightMap support.
FuBar_ToFu support.
myAddons Support.
FuBar Support.

See included Readme for patch history.

02 April 2008 - v20400-3
Argh! - 2 minutes after upload I realised I included wrong file in archive.
This one contains the correct chat alert sequence, and does the CC alert correctly.

02 April 2008 - v20400-2
Updated the recommended CC macro further up this page.
Removed chat alert mouse click from flight timer display.
Added new keybinding to the system keybindings for all chat alerts.
Set key in keybindings which will then produce the following chat alerts when used:
No Hud: Pastes your current location into message box for current channel.
Hud showing: Pastes your current target into message box for current channel.
In Flight: Pastes your flight destination/ETA into message box for current channel.
Active CC: Pastes time left on CC into message box for current channel.

29 March 2008 - v20400-1
Fixed flight timer errors for new flight paths and some other minor fixes.

Lindalas A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 19 File comments: 76 Uploads: 0	Threat Since you're already using some Ace2 libraries to extend MetaHud, perhaps I could suggest yet another... add a threat bar using Threat-1.0. While you probably want to show the % of the current tank (whoever has agro), the max for the bar should probably be the "you'll pull agro" limit... i.e. 110 or 130% depending on whether you're at melee or ranged range... that is already in the threat-1.0 library (see Omen for the pure threatmeter implementation). There is also an addon addon for IceHud under development to do this. Another extension I'd love to see would be a swing/auto-shot timer running next to the cast bar in the same way Quartz combines the two. This is by far the best cast/auto-shot timer out there for hunters (and we need it!)

Vandermint A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 1 File comments: 5 Uploads: 0	Cast bar blinking There has always been an issue with this mod ever since I first started using it back when Metahawk revamped the original idea from that guy who's name started with a D and I can no longer remember. Don't we love run on sentences. Anyway, this happens especially during raids or any kind of group fight. If I cast a timed spell (let's use shadow bolt or holy light for example), after the HUD cast bar fills up and cast has completed, the castbar will sit there and blink repeatedly until I make another cast or the mob we are attacking dies. Or in the case of healing, it stops when I switch targets (SOMETIMES). This behavior doesn't produce an error message, it is simply annoying, and in cases where I'm heavily focused on what I'm doing, it causes me not to cast as many times as I should because I keep thinking the spell isn't done yet. What do we know about this issue?

I had posted a bug report (with a workaround) about this issue a few days ago.

This bug and probably many of the others that others are reporting are because RangeCheck requires BabbleSpell to be installed as well. The latest version (posted yesterday) tries to fix this, but it doesn't quite. The problem is that BabbleSpell requires the AceLocale-2.2 library, which isn't included in the mod. You can solve the problem by going to http://files.wowace.com and downloading the complete Ace2 library and install it in your AddOns directory. However, MetaHawk may also want to fix this so that MetaHud can be used as a standalone mod.
