ncUI  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.1a
by: nightcracker [More]


ncUI is an extreme light-weight user interface with a nice minimalistic look. This UI has less than 350 kB memory usage! I'm in love with this UI, and I hope you will fall in love with it too. Almost all config(which is currently nearly none) is found in the .lua files. Open them with Notepad and start editing! Warning: if you edit the wrong parts it will break the UI.

How to install:
Rename (if existent) your "Interface" and "Fonts" folders to "Interface_backup" and "Fonts_backup". Extract the Interface and Fonts folders to the folder which contains WoW.exe(default is "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\"). On first login you will be prompted to auto-install, click yes and ur done!

Usage:
Once installed, when you enter the game the UI will auto-configure. Then your ready to begin!
The navigation in ncUI is a little bit different than in the default UI. To bind use /hb and you can bind your actionbars, spells in the spellbook and macros.
Rightclick on the minimap is for tracking.
To get 25 extra actionbutton, open the default keybindings frame(Escape > Bindings), scroll all the way down and bind something to "Extra Buttons". If you now press and HOLD the keybinding, 25 extra buttons will become visible under your mouse.

Config is in the lua file "config.lua" found in the ncUI addon folder. The settings are well commented and easy to edit.

Upcoming features/todo list:
- Gametooltip quest info
- Clock and guild to ncDatatext
- My own unitframes
- Rewrite of CoolLine to ncCooldownline
- Totem bar
Suggest features! My todo list that constantly updates can be found here.

lol, don't worry, I had that same problem and it took me far longer than it should have to figure it out myself xD I think it's a new setting that they auto-check by default.

Re: actionbarbackground width

silly question maybe, but how wide should the actionbarbackground be when using all 12 buttons on each bar, so that all 4 borders of every button are visible?

thanks in advance
In the panels.lua, change

Code:
ncUIdb:CreatePanel(barbg, 535, ncUIdb["actionbar"].bars==1 and 39 or 73, "BOTTOM", UIParent, "BOTTOM", 0, ncUIdb:Scale(5))
to

Code:
ncUIdb:CreatePanel(barbg, 401, ncUIdb["actionbar"].bars==1 and 39 or 73, "BOTTOM", UIParent, "BOTTOM", 0, ncUIdb:Scale(5))
However, unless you use this (Or manually multiply the widths of the ToT, Target, Player, Pet, and Focus frames by .75 in the unitframe.lua file), it will look like this.

2. How can I change the timezone on the clock?
1. Make sure you are dragging a spell before trying to show the actionbuttons.
2. No idea.

Only 1 thing troubles me. I'd like to increase the height and width of the chat frames and also make the background a bit darker for easier reading. I would really appreciate if you could guide me through this. Thanks!
Open up scripts/panels.lua and change the height value for lvertical and rvertical. I don't know what you mean for the background color, but I think in config.lua you see a part with "colorscheme_backdrop", edit that value.

i'm watching progress on this ui, it look's nice, but few things are to be done:
rogue combo points at 1280x1024 they hides under target's target
xp bar frame-there are no such one or i missed it?
1big bag-simple one just to have one bag opened by one key.
role indicator in dungeon groups
I think i told everything;]

Edit chat.lua in the enter() function. Look for chatframe3 and start commenting out lines.
