Didn't he answer your first question?

I think your second question is a bit vague. It's just done via pitbull configuration. He increased the width of the frame, the height of the health bar, changed it to custom colors, added text (under Texts) to the outside of the frame and increased the font to what appears to be 300%.

Sorry, was hoping for more of a response for the 2nd part of my question. How do you get Pitbull customized to that level? I just haven't been able to figure it out

I recall an addon that would watch your casts, and tell you the average time between casts. ie, in a chain casting situation, the spell should take X sec to cast with my haste, but it's actually taking me Y sec, on average. Trying to figure out why some of our casters are getting significantly more casts in the same duration, without having that much more haste.

It could be due to latency, Quartz is a castbar that shows your latency making it very nice for casters that seem to miss a few spells.

Does anyone know an addon that kinda works like Grim Reaper I would say, it logs the last combat log entries of a player before his death. Something that is dedicated just to this, with some simpler overview and what is most important, sorts player deaths according to timestamp, i.e. time of death. So that I can go through it after an attempt and take a look who died first and why?

I do realize this can be achieved by just paying attention to it mid-attempt and then just going through Recount (or some other mod that has this ability) to find out, but I would like to simplify the "paying attention" part.

Haven't tested myself but Acheron should do the trick

Top-left ish, There's a box that has "player target" with all the combat info in a nice format. What mod does that?

Also, I know his Unit Frames are pitbull, but HOW do you get it to look like that?

Still hoping for an answer on this... asked earlier and got a "it's easy" response, with no detail :-\

EavesDrop, it's a combat log.

See also Faykan's post right above the one I quoted.

What you can do in Pitbull is copy settings from one unit frame to another (like, you set up how you want your Player frame to look and then just use the same settings in your Target frame). I can't remember the exact place to do this and I'm at work so can't look but it should be somewhere within each sub-menu for each unit. So first open the Player frame sub menu and work on getting your frames to look how the screenshot does.

Again I can't remember the order of the menus under Player, but you should try to change these things:
1) Remove anything you don't need like Portrait, Cast bar, Blank Space, etc (Just untick "Enabled")
2) Set height and width you want of health and power bar (Size)
3) Set colours/texture/font (global settings) (you need a Shared Media addon for extra textures and fonts)
4) What really makes that pitbull setup unique is text placing. In the Texts submenu you can basically change the location and size of things like unit name, health % or amount, power, etc. You need to get rid of ones you don't want displayed (again just disable them). Then one at a time customise the texts you do want. e.g. Health, he's got it on the right side of the health bar, so go into Texts - Health and change the location to Inside Right on the health bar drop down menu. Then you can change the size there too to make it look like his. Basically just play around until it looks the way you want, it's really worth spending time getting used to Pitbull's menu.

When you're happy you can import the settings to your target frame or whatever you like.

The question was a bit vague so I hope that helps, if what you meant was how to get the texts exactly like in the screenshot, you might like to check out the Dog Tags thread in this forum and also their helpful wiki at wowace.com. This will let you create new texts that can display customised info.

Does anyone know of an Addon that hides the chat frame (or rejects incoming messages) during arena matches?
I know of the Prat module "Clear" which adds a "/clear" command to the chat, but that doesn't help when someone is writing and I'm already inside.

Astrylian · 12/09/08, 12:12 PM

I'd suggest Cellular. It's an addon that places whispers from different people into their own chat window. Additionally, when you're in combat, and someone whispers you, only the chat window title bar pops up, minimized. It doesn't completely block incoming whispers, but at least they appear discreetly, and not in your main chat window.

I am searching for a mod I heard someone mention briefly. I do not know if it is a Death Knight specific mod or not, but this individual said it would analyze a piece of gear and help determine if it was a decent upgrade. He mentioned it would use green to show an upgraded stat and red to show where you may lose in a stat.

I am sorry I don't have anything more, but I can no longer find the specific post on the Blizzard Death Knight forums.

Thanks for any and all help!

(I tried to include MirrorImage into the mage's buffs, but i did not show me a bar.)
If there's a mod out there, which provides .. let's call it "customizable popup-bar on event" (macros, gains), I'd like to try it too, but I haven't found one by now.
If there's a workaround (per haps a lua-hack) to enable this function at ElkBuffBars, I#d certainly be happy to see it.
Currently I'm using a stopwatch-macro, but I'm used to bar-style counters on my screen, and this ugly stopwatch defaces my UI and keeps my eyes torn to a certain point for a while.

You can setup a custom BigWigs Bar with the duration of mirror image and put the script in the macro of your mirror image button, should be something like : /bw extras custombars locale 30 Mirror Image

Time is set to 30 secs in this example and you can put whatever text you want after this. Note that you need bigwigs to be activated to get the bar which is not the case outside raid boss fights unless you activate it manually.

I saw a mod that made the loot roll window very compact. I'm not sure if it was here or on wowinterface's compilations forum. The pic had two tems up for rolling and they both had the item's icon, the icon for Need, the icon for Greed, the icon for Pass and a shrinking bar for duration on the rolling time. This display was layed out horizontally with the next piece of loot stacked above it.
