I'm currently using ArkInventory, but it uses up a lot of memory and can lag up the game sometimes. Is there something compareable?

It looks similar to one of the textures Duke included in his UI packs. I don't have a direct link to them at the moment but you may be able to troll through the "SHOW ME YOUR UI" sticky and find a post by him.

Somewhere in one of his archives there is a texture directory that has all of them, you can add them to your SharedMedia.
Not sure if the right one is among those but those textures are beautiful nevertheless. Thank you.

The mod has changed. There's little arrow buttons beneath the bag icon (tooltip states: toggle location) in that menu are:
- bank
- guildbank
- keyring
- mailbox

- search

Anyone know of one?

So with most people's UI setups, I notice they look all prim and proper until they actualy get in a party/raid and start hitting stuff, which is when their fancy pants UI explode with shit all over their screen and oh god my eyes what have you done.

So I've been thinking about inverting the process. Typicaly your screen gets more and more cluttered as you gain buffs, as your target gains debuffs, as your abilities go on cool down, etc. But what about reversing all of that?

For instance, instead of a buff mod which shows me what buffs I have, I'm looking for a buff mod which shows me what buffs I'm missing, and as I get those buffs their buff icons would disapear. I could set it to only display buffs I care about, so with my rogue I'd want to have it display the icons for Might/Kings/Salvation/Fort/GotW/Battle Shout/etc. when I don't have them, while not bothering to show me things like Arcane Intellect/Spirit/Mana Tide/etc. The idea being if I'm fully buffed, then I should see no buff icons on my screen.

Or instead of having action bars with abilities that have cooldowns showing all the time, how about having the actions bars hide themselves until a cooldown has expired, when they'd then appear for me to click on.

The idea is to clean up my screen during combat, and at the same time making it easier for me to spot when I'm missing a buff, or a cool down is up, or a boss is missing a debuff, etc.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I like the concept, but your ideas don't really help as much as they damage IMO.

"Showing buffs you're missing". What about the temporary buffs you get? They'd be showing all the time, except for the 10s you have it every fight? Suggestion: Get Satrina's Buff Frames. Set up a 'show on mouseover' bar with all the raid buffs and make sure they're not shown on your normal buff frame (where you see the temporary buffs you want to see).

"Hide spells on CD". Minimalistic: true. Nice: not-so-much. Not seeing a CD timer of some sort will impair you.

"Missing target buffs". Great idea, there are several ways to do it, none of which I've really looked into. Check out Demon - edit the lua if you only want to see what you're missing.

We currently have a per hour DKP system and our administration of it basically consists of using CT_RaidTracker to track the time spent and then import the DKP string to EQDKP and convert that time spent to DKP values. People on the wait list also earn DKP and we've always required them to also be in raid where we put them in groups 6-8 so they can be tracked. Being on the WL implied you were very close at hand to get in the raid at a moment's notice so you were kind of restricted on what you could do anyways while waiting to get in.

But with 2.4 and all the new dailies and locks having the ability to summon directly into instances, we've had a lot of calls for people to still be on WL but not in raid. They want to be able to do dailies, most of which you can't while in raid group, and are otherwise ready to come in anytime with all their consumables ready. The problem is they wouldn't be in raid and hence not tracked by RT and we'd have to come up with some alternative way of tracking them so they get credited with DKP. We certainly would rather not have to do this manually.

Does anyone know of a mod or some other system we might employ to solve this?

Best I could suggest is to use a mod like EKWaitlist to track the people on WL. But I think you are goign to have to manually add them to that raid in EQDKP. But this way you atleast have a refrence of those WLing.

What mod is responsible for outputting the message above my bars? In this screenshot, the message is "+7 silver, 39 copper".

Really? You're not even going to look at the first page of threads in this forum? Or perhaps a search? Cooldown counters and notifications I hate you.

(16:19:52) (manly) i mean, think of it this way, if you were a retard, do you think you would realize your a retard spreading butter on your chest crying in the rain ?
(16:20:05) (manly) no youd just think thats normal

In the bottom part of this screenshot near the middle is a mod that is a small box with all the raid icons in it. Any idea what mod this is or how exactly it works? I am looking for one that helps me speed up my target marking.

What's the addon/s used here for the combat/text logs apperences, and getting the round-shaped action buttons?
Also what's the most simple addon to customise the font all over the game?

Thanks in advance!

The round shaped buttons are through Cycircled, looks maybe like simplesphere as the skin choice.
Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to your other 2 questions, sorry.

I would guess they are using eepanels with custom art.

OK I have been reading here on these forums for a while now & finally have courage to ask a couple questions. Im hoping this is the right thread & forum & that they have not already been asked & answered here. Either way, Please be Gentle


#1.) When I enter combat, in the dead middle of my screen right by my characters' head I get some sort of timed status bars... I think I saw someone refer to them as...Quartz..? They actually anoy the hell out of me especially in a raid when they stack like 5-6 bars high with different attacks/casts/ect & I really cant see my toon any longer. LOL I like the tool feature BUT How can I at least MOVE then somewhere else?




# 2.) I recently Added Closet gnome & Outfitter to my collection of addons. I am Prot spec. warrior and am Tanking 90% of the time BUT I need help speeding up the completion of my Dailies & wanted to Switch into DPS gear quickly & was directed to Outfitter... So I have it enabled on here now & tried to set it up per. each 'outfit' but it seems it doesn't "Save". Shouldn't I be able to switch stances & it automatically switch gear like the riding crop drops off & switches out w/ my combat trinket Or no? Maybe Im just asuming thats how it works. OR do I actually have to click the Outfitter bar to Berserker/Dps...?




#3.) Is there some sort of page here or Directory that will show me what addons are Reccomended specifically for a Tank for raiding?? I have the couple of Core basics I believe. (Omen -though i dont think its set up right, Deadly Boss Mobs, and just d/l'd Jims Cooldown Pulse) But am currious if there is anything else that would really help this 'newish' Tank Perform to my optimum potential.




Thanks so much in advance!! Im not Super handy with all this, but Im eagerly learning.
