Oh, and one quick question. Has anyone else, or perhaps Sethik, noticed that Fubar (at least in this UI comp) been taking up quite a lot of resources? Mine hovers around 7MiB, l even when I just log in! Any help?
Heh, thanks. Raiding shouldn't be too rough to get used to, I try to keep it very friendly and out of the way, while retaining all the useful information. Always open to suggestions, though.

As for Fubar, mine is 3.5 at login. Since the UI uses embedded libraries/externals, it appears that individual addons are taking a higher than usual amount of memory, when memory usage actually represents the addon + it's libraries. This is because the libraries load *with* addons, not just alongside them, so to speak (notice there are no Ace2 or Lib* entries under addon memory usage.)

You need to download SharedMedia from files.wowace.com

Put your fonts in there and then add some stuff to the .lua file.

Go into C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\SharedMedia


Click SharedMedia.LUA

Where it says

-- -----
--   FONT
-- -----
	SML:Register("font", "Adventure",				[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Adventure.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Bazooka",					[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Bazooka.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "BigNoodleTilting",		[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\BigNoodleTilting.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "BlackChancery",			[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\BlackChancery.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Diablo",					[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Avqest.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Emblem",					[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Emblem.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Enigma",					[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Enigma__2.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Movie Poster",			[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Movie_Poster-Bold.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Porky's",					[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Porky.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Tangerine",				[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Tangerin.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "TwCenMT",					[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Tw_Cen_MT_Bold.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "Yellowjacket",			[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Yellowjacket.ttf]])
	SML:Register("font", "CenturyGothic",			[[Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\CenturyGothic.ttf]])
Copy one of these -
SML:Register("font", "Adventure", Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\Adventure.ttf)

And replace these parts with the Name of your font and the file name

-
SML:Register("font", "FontNameLeaveQuotations", Interface\Addons\SharedMedia\fonts\FilenameofFont.ttf)

Can you tell me how you are doing those borders. Are you just doing the old thin panel and opacity set low or what. By borders I mean the very translucent ones around your chat, the same ones tapestry has.

Same. I think I am gonna use minichat and have a combat log there, which you can hide when the meters are up, and show when not in raid/need to see some info.

I really love how much this UI has evolved through symbiosis; now I'm gonna borrow a couple of your ideas.



What would that make it, Saeto? My ripoff of Ryas' ripoff of my ripoff of your ripoff of my TBC UI?


Sexy.

(I (re)use ripoff endearingly, blame Rob!)

Damn it Ryas, your stuff is so nice.

Well, this is mine. Consider it a WIP, and will probably be changed totally some time this week.

Not a big fan of the minimalist approach. I like my screen lit up with actions when I am in raid.

And also a big fan of X-perl, the new big debuff icons feature is really neat.

I know it is against the minimalist approach.

But it gets my adrenaline going. And I like stuff to be flashy.

Thanks to the hard working mod writers and nvidia, the performance is not so bad for all the flash stuff.
