TotemGarden aims to replicate the functionality of the unmaintained TotemBar within the WoW 2.x engine. It is meant to mimic basic behaviour of TotemBar but the 2.x engine changes and its Secure Button system made a reimplementation necessary.
I'm interested in non-shaman testers. Other classes that are currently supposed to be supported are: Hunter, Mage, Warlock and Paladin. I will add other classes if some interested player provides me a list/setup of the most commonly used spells. Before reporting a bug, please check that it isn't listed in the known issues/bugs section below.
TotemGarden provides the following features: (also a Quick Usage Guide)
- Grid of 4x6 buttons containing pre-assigned spells for some classes. (Shaman, Hunter, Mage, Warlock, Paladin)
- Buttons are hidden until Shift-key is held down and the mouse cursor hovers over the frame. (Minimized waste of screen estate)
- Almost all currently implemented features work both in and out of combat.
- To drag the frame around, Shift-drag the title row to the desired position
- Spells can be picked up by draging and placed onto your other actionbars for a quickaccess-mini-spellbook. (Note: This single feature doesn't work in-combat anymore. Blame Blizzard. )
- Holding Ctrl while casting or dragging a spell from it, the lowest available spellrank will be cast/picked up. (Example: Quickly drop lvl1 Magma Totem to annoy AV flag cappers.)
- To change the size of the window, use "/tg scale 0.8" (where 1.0 means Normal size and 0.5 means half the normal size)
Known Issues (to be fixed):
- The invisible mouseover area doesn't allow clicks thru it.
- Tooltips not shown under some circumstances.
Longterm TODO:
- Option to not hide the window at all. (always-show)
- Allow resorting of columns like TotemBar did. (OOC only)
- Allow the user to define his own spell assignments.
- Allow the user to change number of rows and columns.
- Support for items and other non-spell actions.
HOW TO USE:
- Hold down the Shift key and hover your mousecursor over the center of the screen to reveal
the TotemGarden Window. Once visible you should move the window to an unused part of your
screen by clicking on the titlebar and dragging it there.
- It will vanish once your cursor leaves the window or once you cast a spell from it.
- You can quickly pickup any spell on the window and drag it into your Action Bars.
- Holding down the CTRL Key while picking up a spell will pickup the lowest rank.
(Useful for a quick Rank 1 Magma Totem for example.)
