Introduction
Combination of a number of key components/modifications I have made for my UI. The idea was to have a very simple to install starting point that can be quickly loaded and run with, using a handful of supporting addons.
The addon includes the following;
- Unit Frames for Player, Target, Focus, ToT, ToF (using oUF)
- Chat Tab Clean Up
- Minimap Modifications
- Artwork and Stat Blocks
- AutoLoot Switcher
- SmartQueue (for easier LFR Queing)
Detailed Description
Unit Frames
I have used oUF for building an easy to view HUD Unit Frames.
What it does Player - Unit Frame and optional Castbar and Buff/Debuff Frames Pet - Unit Frame Target - Unit Frame and optional Castbar and Buff/Debuff Frames ToT - Unit Frame ToF - Unit Frame
What it doesn't do Party/Raid Frames - I decided that party/raid frames needs a lot of personal preference customization and there are other great offerings that can do this for you.
Chat Tab Clean Up
I got pretty sick of the ugly chat tabs, this enables class color chat tabs with no background images etc. Very clean and nice to look at and you can now also set the opacity of the text in both on/off states (i.e. have them hidden or near hidden when you don't need to click them).
Minimap Modification
I got a little tired of the size of my minimap addon considering the small amount of functionality I really wanted.
- Removal of annoying Bliz buttons
- Set to square and location to Top Left
- Add Minimap Lock/Unlock (through options) to allow movement of the minimap
- Add a class color border and location text
- Add Coordincates
- Set minimap Scale
Artwork and Stat Blocks
using LitePanels to provide a central, clean place for your action bars. The layout provides multiple "stat blocks" that you can define the information you wish to display ranging from System/Net Stats (such as Latency, FPS etc) to player details (such as MP5, Intellect etc)
AutoLootSwitcher
Will automatically switch your AutoLoot setting based on whether you are in a party/raid. When solo AutoLoot will be enabled, when in a group it will be disabled
SmartQueue
Allows you to set the maximum number of dead bosses you want for your LFR run. With 0 being a clean run. The Module will auto decline raids offered and requeue you automatically.
