3 month ago I had an addon on my mage, that would tell me when my talents procced, how many stacks of ArcaneBlast I had up etc. but now I can't recall what it was.

It would pop up icons with the proccs in question. Any ideas?

I don't want to see there cooldowns, only the durations.
I use DBM-SpellTimers to track my raidmates' cooldowns. I know this is not what you're looking for but, besides detecting the cast and painting a new bar, there's maybe an option to track durations instead of CDs

Sounds like Scorchio2. Atm Scorchio2 is having a hard time detecting procs (MBarr, Hot Streak), so I would recommend Power Auras for proc tracking.

So, I've been trying to find a DotTimer for some time. I switch between playing a DK Tank, Disc Priest and Warlock(Aff primarily)

What I'm trying to find is a dot timer that functions somewhat like the BigWigs timers. I can have a stack off to the side that shows me all of my current dots, but when I target something, the dots on that target move to a different place. I've been using multiple mods across the 3 characters as needed by fight/class/spec. Usually it's some mashup of NeedToKnow ForteXorcist or Nugrunning. Before I start mucking about and trying to re-invent the wheel I figured I would check if anyone could suggest another option?

Edit 2: Oh and Classtimer/DotTimer with their Prominence feature are close, but don't quite fit the bill since I can't choose to show by current target.

Try: DoTimer - Addons - Curse

EDIT: Crap I might have just referred you to one you mentioned in your edit there, my bad. However it was updated yesterday so might have changed a bit.

EDIT2: In an effort to try and save face I went digging for you and found TimerButtons - Addons - Curse ... It looks like it might work.

Thanks for the suggestions! ButtonTimers was neat, but a bit more and less than I wanted. Looks like I'll probably just put some stuff together with spare bits of code here and there. Here's hoping I don't blow my computer up!

On right side of his frame is panel with custom Lua Text/Dog Tags

Auracle can be set to do that but with icons, much easier.

If I remember correctly, there have been some questions about that particular info panel before. The end decision was that it was not, in fact, part of the unit frames, but rather a kgPanels panel with a custom script. This could also be accomplished with litePanels I believe, though Auracle is considerably easier to set up as you mentioned. It is, however, very high on memory usage, if that is actually a concern.

That is correct. In fact, the author of that 'mod' posted the UI with an upload on WoWinterface. If you'll wade through the "Show your UI"-thread, you'll find a post of him there as well as a link to the upload.

I was interested in finding a mod or addon that automatically runs a timer / stopwatch when you enter combat. In a sense, it would be the same thing as the DXE module but that tends to not run on fights that haven't been integrated yet.

I can't promise that this mod will still work as it hasn't been updated in months, but nothing in the addon API should have changed to break it.

Jim's Cooldown Pulse, or ForteXorcist has a build-in feature that does this.

Anyone know what mod this mage is using in the video of the lich king kill?

YouTube - Blood Legion vs The Lich King (10) - World First (Part 2 of 2)

The one that shows the buffs / debuffs above his player frame for like the arcane blast debuff, evocation and arcane missles. Or is that part of the player frames he is using, and if so what ones? What about the cooldown tracker on the left showing the time remaining on mana gem, evocation, etc?

Thank you very much for your help

You can get that effect a few ways. The first (and probably easiest) is with Shadowed Unit Frames. Enable Auras, and adjust the settings to only show what you want.

If that doesn't offer enough customization for your taste, you can combine any unit frame addon of your choice, as well as a buff/debuff tracking addon, such as Satrina's Buff Frames. Just locate and scale the buff frames where you want them, and set up filters to only show what you want. This is the more brute force way of doing it, but it works fine for me.

To answer your second question, I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like CTB would do what you want, assuming it still works.

I remember there was some addon which made it so you used your skills when your keys went down instead of up... if that makes sense, anyone know the name?

I'm not sure if a mod with this functionality exists, but I'm looking for a mod that will scan my mailbox and record auction results for me. For example, if I get a mail saying autiion runed scarlet ruby expired, then it'd log that one of my runed scarlet rubies failed to sell, or if it does sell, record the average sell prices for that particular item.

This is built into the BeanCounter portion of the Auctioneer suite.

Hey, I am looking for an add on that will move the pvp icon on the minimap to an ldb display. Similar in the way Broker_LFD works.

The addon in the middle of the screen between the two unit frames is actually part of the LUI compilation (I use this UI myself) that you can find here:
LUI v2.0 : WoWInterface Downloads : Minimalistic Compilations

Its a custom addition that he made with KGpanels and you can probably just take that part of it. I personally got rid of it because I didn't need it as a hunter.

I'm looking for an addon that tracks my current spellpower. I have several different items that proc some extra spellpower, and I would like something that shows me what it is at when cooldowns are ready to be used.
