Would anyone be able to suggest an add-on that allows me to have more character specific macro slots as the default number from blizzard is simply not enough for my customised macros?
Thank you in advance.

Please recommend me an add-on which notifies me by shaking/tinting the view in a certain conditions, ie, low health, low mana, gain some specific buff / debuff.

Emergency can do this. It tracks Health, Mana, Aggro, as well as some class specific and boss specific buff/debuffs.

Thanks miridithe. Unfortunately, Emergency was abandoned. Instead, I managed to find alternatives as follows;

- Low Health Warning keeps track of Health and Mana

- ActionCombat will add icon on the screen on certain self-buff event.

Bindpad and/or MacroSequence.

Bindpad was what I was looking for ( available at BindPad - GUI to set keybindings for spell/item/macro : WoWInterface Downloads : Graphic UI Mods )

Thank you very much.

Edit: A better option for simply more macros would be to switch to Trinity Bars

Is there an addon that will automatically set the rep you are watching to whatever is gained in the instance you are in?

Hi guys, I was wondering if anybody would happen to know a good, solid alternative to Natur EnemyCast bars; an addon which tells me my opponent's CD for various abilities such as psychic scream, death coil, hammer of justice, etc etc. Specifically, one which proves more beneficial in PvP purposes rather than PvE.

This should be exactly what you are looking for: RepWatch : WoWInterface Downloads.

any help would be appreciated.

It's hard to tell from the low quality youtube video but i think these are Gypsy Unitframes.
The Gypsy-Mod has been discontinued but there is a look-a-like called UIFrames : WoWInterface Downloads : Ace: Interface Enhancements.

If it wasn't Gypsy I'm sorry but a screenshot would help alot.

these would be the closest i can match to my memory. it might be discord unit frames...theres just so many variations it will probably be impossible to find an exact match, but if anyone can recall if theyve seen other mods that appear as these do, let me know.

I'm pretty sure those are, Nurfed Unit frames.

E: The warlock in the movie is using other ones, CT or Gypsy or something alike, maybe even selfmade ones (modified Blizz default).

I'm looking for recommended addons that do the following:

A) Gives me between 2-6 buttons that I can move freely on the screen, without being one of the normal Bar Mods (I don't want default UI overwritten, to be specific.) Resizing would be nice, but not necessary, and I understand that most will likely redirect from current bars; that's also fine. I like everything else where it is, but I'll want Hands closer to my raid frame, I think. (Yes, I click. No, I'm not changing that.)

B) Gives me a single timer (moveable on screen) that triggers when a specific spell is cast, and is adjustable. Specifically, if there's one being made for the new Seal 2min timers, that'd be great, but I'll take anything that's close.

Edit: Thanks in advance.

Anyone know if theres an accurate mod out there to track Prayer of Mending casts/bounces? Mendingwatch was the only one I could find, but with a bit of testing... well its terrible and just wrong (Can't handle being overwritten by a stronger PoM, cant really handle multiple priests at all really.)

I've written a mod of my own that tracks it accurately, but its a bit rough around the edges. Just wondering if its worth publishing.

I think, most of the Bar Addon replace the Blizzard one complete. Correct me, if I am wrong

If that specific spell is cast by an enemy:
Afflicted2 : WoWInterface Downloads : PvP/Arena/BattleGrounds

If that specific spell is cast by yourself:
CooldownTimers3 | World of Warcraft Addons | World of Warcraft @ Curse.com

If that spell is cast by somebody in your raid:

normally id read through all 130 pages of posts, but as i am so time leashed, i must ask first.

im looking for a mod, to change the actual viewing space on my screen to make it more of a widescreen resolution, so in the blank space below i can put all of my addons and action bars.

im completely new to this, but from what ive gathered off of google and curse.... Skinner and Aperture do this., and possibly CT_viewport, but before i delve into any of it, i wanted to ask the easiest and quickest route. i have skinner as of right now, but i have no idea what to do, and i saw a good amount of errors as i loaded. Any advice would do, i just do not know the names of the mods out there.

This movie:
WarcraftMovies.com - World of Warcraft Movies
(Fusion speed clear of Gruul's)
The warlock has an addon that pops up CoD cooldown when the boss is around 30% or so. It looked pretty similar to some old totem stomp addons I've seen in Shaman PvP videos that pop up a big icon when grounding is off CD for example. This one appears to work for Warlocks and I'd be interested to see what it can do. Anyone know what it is?

Alternatively: Ghost: Pulse 2 : WoWInterface Downloads : Ace: Combat

I prefer this one to Jims, gives more options and is more configurable.
