CursorCastbar  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.5b
by: Duugu, humfras

CursorCastBar adds circular cast bar(s) to your mouse cursor.

Cast bar, Global Cooldown Bar, Mirror Bar, Remaining cast time, Spell Name, Spell Icon, and more.

The configuration is done via the Blizzard interface options.


TO DO (in no particular order):

  • Healing Bar - incoming heal/overheal for current cast/target
  • optional focus castbar
  • optional round spell icons
  • modifier/key to temporary hide the bars or set the opacity to very low (eg in critical situations)
  • more bar layout options (start point, end point, etc)
  • text for the mirror bar


Known Bugs:
  • Bug: Mac client crashes with high-res textures. This is known a game bug within the Mac client. It happens with large textures above 512*512 pixels.
    Solution: Don't choose the high-res bar textures. Choose textures 1, 2, or 3. The game shouldn't crash with them.

Dear user


My WoW subscriptions end in may 2011. After more than six years playing WoW and developing addons I absolutely can't find a reason to continue. The direction Blizzard is steering with WoW is more than unfruitful.
The game is dead. It's an empty shell. A sad moment, but that's the way it is.


This means of course all of my addons are discontinued as from now. Thank you very much for using them and for providing me feedback and input. A very special thank you goes to the few people who donated for them. There would be much more and better stuff if more people would act like you. Thank you.


I hereby explicitly reject any attempts to continue, take over or reuse this addon, the addons source code, the contents or parts of it.
If you are willing and able to continue this addon I may grant you the right to do this if you contact me, ask for it, and convince me that you are able to do it in the long run.


I’m looking forward to meet everyone of you again in SWTOR.


All the best to you

Duugu

Thx Seerah.

The bars are split up in 64 separate textures (1/64 filled, 2/64 filled, etc). These textures are all in a 1024x1024 tga. So each texture is only 128x128 pixel. :/

I could decrease the number of textures. This should remove the jagged appearance. But it means also the bar is more "stuttering". If I increase the number of textures there's less "stuttering" but the texture is jagged. :/

I had a 2048x2048 tga but couldn't load it into WoW (WotLK client was able to load it btw). Seems as with live servers the max size for tga's is 1024.

Nevertheless it's the first point on my to do list to create a better texture.

I did install and try it. The texture seems a little jagged and the bar fill not so smooth were my first impressions.

It's a quick hack for a friend.
I'm curious about feature request and comments.
