I know there are similar mods to AEP out there, such as Tankpoints and Healpoints for classes other than rogues, but they don't seem to have the customization features that I am looking for.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

On several screenshots I've seen a buffmod that places buffs (and I assume debuffs) in the same standard spot as the default UI, but they have an abbreviation over their icon (GOTW, POF, AI etc) and the icons look better, spiffier, with a timer in minute/second below that.

Is that a specific mod that I can install, or some fancy working with ElkBuffBars or something?

Okay, I'm stumped. I d/l'd and got the Grimpack installed fine. But there are two things that I'm trying to remove off my screen and I'm not sure which mods they are. One is a ton of numbered green, numbered red, and Off-hand Main-hand purple boxes. I don't use them and don't want them there, any idea what mod this is so I can shut it off?

The other is the Player health/energy bar that's not the Perl one, it shows up very square, without an avatar, but I've got two and I like the Perl implementation better. I can't find where this is coming from though. I'm not sure if anyone can help or not but I'm hoping someone can give me some insight.

Thanks in advance.

Anyone have any idea what mod causes SimpleMiniMap to have just an N for north at the top?(not SimpleMiniMap itself as far as I know, because the mod has it's own N,S,E,W letters built in) My addon list is pretty big but I use basically all of the general expected Ace addons so I'd guess it's one of them doing it.

I'm currently using Bartender3 with all my spells hidden apart from those that have a cooldown (only 4-5 as a warlock). My only problem is the petbar, on which I only really need two spells "devour magic" and "spell lock". I've tried to hide the petbar and have those spells show on my bartender bar but apparently that is not possible.

I was wondering if any pet class would know how to have the pet skill cooldowns show on another bar apart from the default pet bar, which would allow me to completely hide the petbar.

You can macro them, and put the macro on your bar:

#show Devour Magic
/cast Devour Magic

Should be Buffalo2 with DreamLayout (look at files.wowace.com)

Either Buffalo or Buffalo2 in configuration mode. I would say buffalo, because as I remeber correctly that is how it looks if you first install it.
These "boxes" are your buffs/debuffs/weaponbuffs, move them where you want.
Then a /buffalo in chat should bring up the configuration menu, hit "locked" and they are gone.

"...gone missing."

That was it! Thank you very much both of you!

Now I just have to figure out the UnitFrames problem.

Thank you very much, that worked perfectly. Now I can finally hide the pet bar which was an annoyance in my current interface.

Try out LootFilter, I used it a lot in the past when fishing Stonescale Eels.
Loot Filter at Curse
or even better Loot Filter Website

Are you tired of deleting all the crap items from your inventory that you get from looting corpses? Or are you tired of having to manually click the items you want from a corpse? Then this addon is for you. It lets you filter loot by quality, item name and item value (and many other things) and helps you keep your inventory clean.

I think eePanels can be used for that as well.

I'm looking for a reliable way to track enemy spell interrupt cooldowns. I have tried Antagonist and NECB without luck, is there anything else out there I could use to accomplish this?

In order for a mod to do this, it would have to both parse the combat log for all players in a range and filter out specific spells, then paste those spells somewhere in particular. In my experience, the best mod by far for tracking enemy cooldowns is NECB, but the downside is that it only shows the cooldowns of your target. My advice? Post something on the NECB forum on curse asking for a feature to paste certain cooldowns like spell lock and counterspell as a bar whether or not you have the player targetted. Natur is usually very good about responding and the mod is always being developed in the right direction.

It's been awhile since I rolled with the default blizzard UI. But if I'm not mistaken, the N is there by default with the blizz UI, and not something that's been added by a mod.

And I would have to agree that NECB is the best mod, at least that I've found, to track enemy cooldowns. Just make sure you enable tracking w/o target.

Addendum: I highly recommend /click PetActionButton# instead of that macro. If you do a /cast while you are already casting it will either ignore it or kill what you are doing to issue the /cast command. I learned to love /click PetActionButton# in arenas/heroics where I had to seduce in the heat of battle and didn't want to mess up my already frenzied button mashing.

(/click PetActionButton# RightButton is another essential for dealing with toggables)

Perl or ag_UnitFrames

Okay, I've spent all nite trying to figure this out. I've got two interfaces both doing the same thing and it's annoying me. I'm thinking of rolling my own so I can get a better idea of whats what anyhow. But here goes. I have the Perl UnitFrames interface and I have another that looks like ag_UnitFrames, but I have no ag_UnitFrames addon installed, and I typing /aguf does not bring up any options box, so what other addons have an interface that looks like aguf, or what other addons may have it included so that I can able/disable parts of it. I've used Niagra to try and configure, but no such luck...

You don't seem to understand, these cooldown mods do not even show bars for spell interrupts. The problem is that the only message displayed in the combatlog when you get interrupted is "[Name] interrupts your [Spell]." Kick and pummel may be trackable due to them actually doing damage to you but NECB simply won't pick up counterspell or spell lock.

In pvp, I use my focus target to focus one of the enemy mages. Next to my focus frame is a rather large, square focus ToT box that is class colored. What this does is allow me to see who my focus is targeting at a quick glance. Ideally I would like a mod that allows me to put a large counterspell counter near my focus frame as well. In my head it works like OmniCC, just showing the counterspell icon and having a big numerical countdown, and flashing when the cooldown is complete. If I have a felhunter focus'd it would show spell lock, kick/pummel for rogue/mage. Not sure if that is even possible.

Kick and pummel are BOTH tracked by necb already. Make sure you have it tracking everything (not just your target). It will generally only pick them up once they happen to you however. I'm pretty sure it picks up the counterspell CD as well, but I could be mistaken.

I will download it again and test counterspell. It has an option in the filters to enable both counterspell and felhunter spell lock cooldowns, but I did testing with a warlock in a duel and I couldn't get it to pick up spell lock at all.

hum, I have searched for an addon on EJ, curse and worldofwar, but I can't seem to put a name on it:

I saw a video where the warlock had a "pulsing" semi circle around him when nightfall or set bonues would proc.

Example: Playing Video: Death Wish vs. Leotheras the Blind | DW Gaming roughly just after the middle of the video

Thanks a bunch!
