WHAT'S THAT MOD??? - Page 7

Is there some sort of customizable energy bar? I know rogues are lol ezmode and whatnot, but I'd like to be able to have a large, fixed-width energy bar that I can move around my screen. There are several tick-monitors, but that's not really what I need as much as a customizable version of the resource bar on the character frame.

I know it's not exactly what you're asking for here, but I really like IceHUD's energy display with built-in tick monitor.

And to continue this slight derail, what are people using for a Slice and Dice timer these days? I started using NeedToKnow a while back, but have never been happy with the way it displayed the bars (specifically the lack of configuration options). I never got to try oDEPS, and it sounds like recent changes to the underlying libraries have broken it and there's no ETA on a working version. Any good alternatives

Debuff Filter will do that, you can track both buffs and debuffs with it. Highly recommended.

I'm still sticking to DiscoDice for SnD. I've set it up to match the width of my StatusBars energy, combo and health display.

Is there a mod that can get rid of the red error text that displays in the top-middle of the screen whenever you try to use an ability that's on cooldown/out-of-range/etc...?

I spam a lot of buttons when tanking and don't really need to see "Ability Not Ready" when I'm banging the Shield Slam button as it's coming off cooldown. I would love a mod that takes that away.

I'd also like a mod that did this.. I recently changed my UI up and have a viewport/skinner bar ant the bottom and the error text needs to be moved up because it's in my way now :P something to move it or disable it would be awesome.

Recently I assembled a UI using most addons from the PrimordialUI-compilation. Although most parts of it are working nice im still lacking a few things and having some problems with some addons. The UI looks like this: http://img363.imageshack.us/my.php?i...7135749ra7.jpg

1.) I wonder if theres an addon that allows me to get rid of tooltips or to customise them (change the spot where they appear). So that not every time i hoover my mouse over a button there pops a tooltip in the right down corner blocking the sight of things ive placed there.

2.) Using aguf to customise my Player; Target and Targets Target I find im lacking a few things. Id like to modify the size of the auras (buff/debuff) shown on the player/target/targets target frame - make them a lot bigger.
Id like to modify the castingbar as shown on the Target-frame, if possible detach it from the frame all together.
Perhaps this is possible with one of the addons i alrdy got with my primordialUI-compilation, or do I have to get additional addons?

3.) Using this UI-compilation I noticed I can no longer toggle such windows as the Social-; the Spellbook- and the Questlogwindow while im in combat (when im part of a raid atleast). Seeing this as highly annoying, id like to know how I can fix this; what addon is responisble for it, and what addon i need to fix it?

Any help with these questions is highly appreciated, thnx!

1) TinyTip, CowTip or any similar Tooltip addon will be able to do that for you.
2) Have a look at PitBull for the Unitframes, its kinda evolved ag_uf. If you want to go further into aura stuff, there is a mod for it to modify that specifically, but i sadly cant recall its name at the moment.
3) That will mostly happen due to an addon breaking the Secure() Environment lockdown during combat, because its not updated for 2.x UI's. Have a look through your addons if any of them are outdated, especially those related to the mentioned windows.

Addons mentioned can be found at http://files.wowace.com or downloaded via WAU - the WoWAceUpdater Application.

Is there a mod out there that lets me bind a key to a "toggle action bars" command? I want to keep my action bars visibly off of my screen unless I actually need to click something, and I'd also like them to appear with a key press.

Bartender will let you do that using SHIFT, ALT, or CTRL.

I don't see that in the options.

What I'm looking for is a button I can press while in combat that will make two or three action bars appear, either while I'm holding it or as a toggle.

I wanna do the slick UI dance, but ill need a "mouseover-mod" for the addons not consumable by FuBar... Like raidframes and such...

The general idea is to have as little as possible shown on the UI and keep most "On demand" by e.g. pull your cursor to the side of the screen, where something then pops in... like a tab...

I know i've had a mod like this before... Used it together with teh epic FlexBar, but cant find it

Thnx!

Some other questions remain:

1.) Can I get a timer on my minimap with Squeenix mod or do I need another addon for that?

2.) I like to use Pittbull unitframes for my Target frame, but I dont like the layout, is it possible to customise that? Preferably to give it the same looks as the ones I have for my aguf-customised uf.

3.) It seems I cannot disbale the tooltip on my spells. Anyone knows a way / addon to do that?

Just wondering, is there a wardrobe type mod that'll switch on my spirit weapon and wand when I evocate, and switch my spelldamage ones back when evocation is over?

No, youll need a macro from the mage forums.. But afaik it is not possible for an addon to "switch back" - and then, MountMe doest it with riding crop and such..

Actually, ClosetGnome_Switcher can switch back to a set you were wearing previously -- and it has a module for a mage's evocate.

It's an Ace mod, but it requires the core ClosetGnome to operate.
