Important: Normal UnitFrame Version
Because I got asked by many people to create a normal unitframe addon with the exact same design as ArenaLive, I decided to create an addon. You can find it here: http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/arenalive-unitframes
ArenaLive Spectator
ArenaLive Specatoator's use is it to enable people to organise WoW-Arena Tournaments in an easy manner and it tries to bring some kind of spectator mode into World of Warcraft.
IMPORTANT: Since the newest version of the addon disables the "Enter Match" button of the static popup, that shows up whenever an arena or battleground queue pops, for 1 minute and 15 seconds, make sure to disable ArenaLive first, before you queue for normal BGs and arenas. Otherwise it could prevent you from joining the matches.
Features:
- Scoreboard including a match timer with a changable timelimit and teamnames
- Unitframes including castbars, portrait overlays for defensive cooldowns and CC, trinket- and racial cooldown tracker and a casthistory with targetindicator ( the last actions of the unit are shown below the castbars. The border around these icons is colored in the class color of the actions' targets. Up to a maximum of 6 icons is shown simultaneously)
- Target and TargetofTarget frames
- Graphical Countdown
- Cooldown tracker for both teams
- Functions to hide standard UI's frames
- Whitelisted Buffs to only show important ones
- Tidyplates theme that is fitting in to the rest of the addons design (optional)
How to work with the Addon (3v3)
- Read the readme.htm inside the addon folder to set up the AddOn correctly
- Queue a 5vs5 Wargame
- Let the 6 players join and wait until the gates are open (this way players can still use their arena1,2,3 macros)
- Join the game
- Open the addOn menu with /al menu
- Insert the player names and realms into the respective textfields
- Let the enemy team kill you
- Hide Blizzard's standardUI and start the countdown
- Enjoy the match
What this AddOn is not
- ArenaLive isn't a real spectator mode, it is just a unitframeset that is designed like one.
- ArenaLive isn't designed for everyday arena usage, but for tournaments/wargames only.
Additional Notes
- You can now follow me on twitter to get information about coming updates for ArenaLive and to contact me.
- OmniCC and TidyPlates complement the addon.
