That is ClassTimer and if you look closely, it is tracking it on the target. So far no good mod exists that does multi-target tracking.

See I use DoTimer for this still, but it is a bit buggy and outdated. I'd love to replace it, but does nothing at all really exist? I used HotMan, an Ace mod for a bit, and it does good multi-target tracking of hots, but it did not track stacks, oddly enough, so I could not watch lifeblooms as closely as I wanted to.

Hey guys, I used to have a mod that, when hovering over an item, would compare that item to the one I had on and tell me what my benefit/loss would be. For example (easy example) if the first one has 10 stamina and the second one has 0 stamina it would say behind the stamina (+100 life) or something like that.

I hope you know what I mean,

Kind regards,
Onoref

Thanks alot, and no I obviously didn't have it installed .

I've been looking for a mod that will allow me to create sets of consumables, and check them in and out of the bank. Pretty much exactly what ClosetGnome_Banker does, but for consumables. Bonus points if it would get items based upon their effect.

Is there any standalone mod that does this or is there another gear manager addon that has this included? Closetgnome and Outfitter both appear not to do this.
I am pretty sure that Outfitter does that. Even better, you don't need to hold any other extra keys.
Just left click on the gear, and all availables in the slot will pop to the right for you.

I dont know if this is the right thread since what I'm looking for is not really a mod. Our guild is slowly progressing in Sunwell (On Felmyst now) and there is a lack of preparation not only by members for upcoming boss encounters. Now I basically want to go write my own boss guides and I was wondering if anyone knows a way to be able to get screenshots of boss areas without people on it (like bosskillers have) so I can draw positioning on it etc. Is something like this possible with wowmodelviewer? Or with some other utility? Or is the only way waiting till we reach the area and take screens?

edit: If someone has a nice overview picture of the empty bossroom of felmyst and eredar twins that would be nice aswell

Maybe spellreminder can do what you want.

I'm not sure it keeps track of stacks, but it tracks multiple renew's and prayer of mending jumps/durations just fine.

When 2.3 came out, I used Alternate Blips to make my party's minimap dot colors different from the raid's. One was blue, the other was red.

WoWInterface Downloads : Map Mods : Alternate Blips Fan Update for 2.3

I recently reactivated my account, but Alternate Blips no longer seems to work for me. Both the raid and party dots are blue, just slightly different shades of it.

I also looked at Chinchilla, but while it changes the shape of the dots, they're still similar shades of blue.
WoWInterface Downloads : Map Mods : Chinchilla

Is there a small, simple mod I can use so my party's minimap's dots are one color, and the raid's dots are a completely different color?

Or is there a filter or updated version for Alternate Blips or Chinchilla that would do this for me?

This looks fantastically promising. I'll try it out when I get home from work.

Alternate Blips should still work (it's one line of code!), but Chinchilla most likely overwrites it. So disable the module in Chinchilla or don't use Chinchilla.

You can use Chinchilla to move this and just move it off the screen I think.

I actually tried Alternate Blips first and when that didn't work, I tried Chinchilla.

Alternate Blips used to color party blue, raid red (I think). But now it makes them both blue.

Chinchilla seems to be able to change colors and shape, but I when I edited the TGA file, it somehow corrupted the entire file.

So I'm not using either at the moment.

If Alternate Blips still works, then either the download on wowinterface.com is corrupt, or I have a mod interfering with it, but it doesn't seem like either's likely.

thanks.
I have been able to determine that the guy in the how to video is using Grid. Is there an addon for Grid that will give an icon over those in the watery grave and/or other boss special abilities?

I had an addon a while ago which came with a compilation I tried. It showed on item tooltips whether you had the item in your inventory/bank/mail with numbers then the same for your other chars like:

Del: 0/0/4
Cap: 20/0/0

Been looking for this and its driving me crazy as I'm now sending alot of prof items to a bank char since bag/bank space is becoming an issue. Anyone have an idea what it could be?

Thanks.

How did it now work? Did the patch kill it? Did you try without any other addons? Reinstall addon? Did you check the simple code for spelling errors? Did you kill the tga by editing?

ETC!

What is the mod that is in between this guy's HUD and his immolate bar. The ones that say 'Ancient Crystal Talisman' & 'Xi'ri's Gift' & 'Conflagrate' And the one to the right of that that says 'Curse of the Elements'. Thx in advance.

ForteWarlock does dot timers for multiple targets extremely well, at this stage it's warlock and shadowpriest-only but I tried it out on my spriest recently and was very impressed. Tracks multiple targets, can display the mobs raid icon on the bar so you can more easily track which bar is for which mob etc.

Very, very impressed.

Yea, I'll probably use ForteWarlock for my warlock and classtimers for my other classes. I don't play a druid so single target timers are fine for every other class.

I'm not sure exactly what mod that is, but the mod i use that looks almost exactly the same is Sorren Timers. (Originally just for hunters, expanded for all other classes later)
