Are there any *ENEMY* cast bar mods which adjust for latency?
The Quartz description implies on Curse implies that it might, but they only have the one screenshot, which isn't very illuminating.
As an oceanic player, I find I'm often too worried that I might waste an interrupt to kick/pummel a 1.5 spell, especially if I've used the GCD with a second/half-second.
I currently use NECB.

While we're asking about mods, a while ago I recall using a mod that tracked my cooldowns and flashed large icons in the middle of the screen when they were ready again. It had a rather strange name, joe something I think, does anyone recall which mod this is?

Yes! Thanks, that's the one. I'm a huge fan of that mod, it manages to let you know what you have available with the smallest amount of fuss and bother. I suppose at some point you might care that the cooldown is up in 5 seconds or what not, but I'm not sure I ever have.

I use ag_uf in arena and am having trouble bringing up the frame for my partner's (warlock) pet. When we are in a party the frame comes up just fine, but arena turns you into a raid and I am having trouble finding out how to bring up pet frames in a raid via AG_UF.

Party frames have an option "Hide Frames in Raid." I suspect the Party Pets frames may have a similar option, but I can't check now.

What is the name of the mod that changes nameplates (the thing that shows up over players head when you press V) to the color of their class? I've seen it in a lot of PVP videos and I thought it was really helpful to see what class you were selecting very easily.

Believe you're referring to Aloft. Can also add casting bars to the nameplates, which is awesome for long casts you can look to interrupt.

Blizzard's default nameplates give you a casting bar, at least for the target you have selected. Does Aloft show casting bars on nameplates for units you do not have selected? That'd be pretty darn useful.

Someone mentioned a few weeks ago on speeding up people in arenas, got a quick proof of concept mod up that takes advantage of some tool tip things we got from 2.4 to identify your enemies faster, Arena Identify a version that can sync with Proximo as well as SSAF will be up later today as well, but this is likely as close as you'll get.

I believe it does, however it seems to have problems tracking whether or not that cast has been interupted / intentionally stopped (faked). Often it will show paladins running around with a half cast Holy Light above their head.

You can't be serious. Even there was such addon, would you control yourself that precise to not pummel/interrupt that spellcast if it was in the "red" area - the are which is the estimate that a spell was already casted due to lag, which even with your latency is 400ish miliseconds? 1.5 spells are hard to pummel as it is, unless you're expecting them and saving GCD.

After testing it I'm pretty sure it does not track multiple castbars for units not targetted. It also appears to be something of a resource hog and was taking up at least a meg of UI memory. I disabled it.

As long as you are running with 1GB of ram, you really shouldn't have to worry about how much UI memory you are using. IIRC, I was running around 150 mb, and I never had any problems.

I believe you're talking about 'Aloft.'

MSBT has this same feature as well.

Would a "Post your arena/pvp UI/interface here" thread be excessive? This thread is all about questions, questions you probably might find on World of Raids or the What's that mod thread on EJ. I'm more interested in seeing how your interface looks when you pvp, rather than asking questions that could've been asked in <a href="http://elitistjerks.com/f32/t13908-what_s_mod/"]What's That Mod[/url].

Then again, maybe it's just me.

Can anyone recommend a mod that will show a text alert in the centre of my screen in a large font when someone is affected by Sheep, Roots etc?

Also decent raid frames for healing in BG/Arenas? I've tried Grid/AGUF and Pearl and didn't like any of them

Don't know any the shows who's affected, but Spell Alert can have REALLY BIG letters on the center of your screen showing whenever someone is casting any spell, you'll just have to filter for these CC's only, and when you see the alert for the cast, start looking around for someone changing into a sheep.

I use xperl for my party frames and such,
clique for binding heals and visualheal for enhancing healing display.

I was wondering though and my apologies to the picture, i took it quiet quickly without knowing i was running dual screen etc but can anybody tell me what addon this is on the left screen (i've circled it) via paint ^^. http://img292.imageshack.us/img292/6347/60556820oq3.jpg

All i know is that it's a enemy cooldown monitor which displays in picture with timers, well.. from what i can tell on the picture . Well i would appreciate it very much if you could help, thanks.
