Antagonist manages enemy cooldowns, and imo Natur Enemy Cast Bars, although not ace, does it much better (not to mention most recent version of NECB is very memory-efficient). Either of these two mods are pretty configurable.

Edit: for your purposes, Antagonist will probably be better, since it is a bit more configurable as I believe you can show cds without targetting the person you want to show the cds of.

I use Natur's enemycastbar for this, also known as necb.

should be on curse-gaming.com

Basically gives you a list of 'bars' for your target (optionally anyone you get combat log messages for) that show durations of moves and cds.

Like if I target a mage and he IBs i'll get a duration and a cooldown bar.

Also tracks pve stuff if you turn it on (poly's boss moves, friendly moves, trash respawns, etc.)

that screenshot is amazing. Anyone know what combination of mods, etc the bottom interface uses? Not so much the unit frames just that awesome bottom stuff, sorry I'm kind of a newb at UI stuff. :P

Could be XArt with a Starcraft texture, lined up chat/combatlog, action bars with CyCircled and moved castbars for target and self.

Does anyone know the name of a mod that shows a large transparent spell icon in the middle of your screen when a spell comes off cooldown? It fades in for about half a second then fades out. Maa is using it in Forte's Illidan video, I'd love to know what it is. Screenshot below.

I searched around for a bit, but couldn't find anything.

Well, I'm fairly certain this is a PitBull custom layout - but does anyone know where to find/download it?:

Yes it's PitBull.

WowAce downloads

Texture used is glaze (I think).

Was trolling the EJ forums last night, and came across this--

http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r...2323/popUI.jpg

From the post your 2.1 UI here :

Post your WoW 2.1 Interface

The Paladin, Soadapop, said this as the caption for his screen shot:

Q u o t e:
Pitbull UF, Bartender, Grid, etc.

I copied the layout from Kerp in his Kael'thas video, then added my own touches.



Now, I already use Pitbull UF and Grid, just not like this guy does. I love how Grid is set up in the bottom right corner, the map in the bottom middle, and how the whole bottom area is blacked out.

I'm a total noob when it comes to UI's, and was wondering if anyone is bored enough to help talk me through this. Whether here on the forums, vent, AIM, anything-- Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks!

Mani


In short..

What is the mod that blacks out the bottom area of the screen? The mod that brings the map to the bottom of the screen, and the mod that has all the consumables on its own bar?

Thanks =D

Is there a mod exactly like Eavesdrop, but that lets me set it to monitor the main tank instead of myself?

Also, what addon is use to reposition your buff? I like the standard blizzard buffs, but now that I've moved my map to the bottom they look out of place.

Either Depot or Skinner (both Ace) will do that. Depot has only the bar as its function, while skinner can actually shrink the entire viewable game screen into a "view port" so you're not missing things on the screen, but it is much larger and has other functions that you may or may not want.

The best minimap mod I've used is simpleMinimap (Ace). Squeenix (also Ace) is decent, as well, but simpleMinimap does cool stuff like let you hide the map button, etc.

Probably Bartender3 (Ace) or some similar bar mod. Bartender three is great and easy to set up. He probably just takes an empty bar and fills it up. It isn't as if Bartender will actually put your consumables on a bar. You've gotta figure that part out on your own.
