DrGlenn's Aion UI  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.19
by: DrGlenn [More]


Now includes an optional cobalt blue color scheme!




This is my take on a verbatim Aion UI for World of Warcraft.

This compilation supports a resolution of 1920x1200 and 1920x1080 out of the box.

Crafty users can make this work with other resolutions.

This compilation contains the following addons:
-----------------------------------------------------
- Align
- Adibags
- BugGrabber
- BugSack
- Chatter
- Chinchilla Minimap
- Classic Quest Log
- DockingStation
- Dominos
- ErrorMonster
- Grid2
- HideRaidFrame
- kgPanels
- Masque
- Masque_Aion
- MikScrollingBattleText
- Postal
- Quartz
- Raven
- Reflux
- SellJunk
- SharedMedia (including LibSharedMedia)
- StatBlock Durability, FPS, Memory, Latency
- Stuf Unitframes
- TipTac
- tullaRange
- tullaCC

I take no credit what-so-ever for the above list of amazing addons.
I merely made them work together to bring you an Aion-like-experience
Kudos & credit goes to every single author of all the addons

!Read the included "README"-file for in-depth installation instructions!

Useful slash-commands and tips:
-------------------------------------
"/adibags" - bag config
"/stuf" - unitframe config
"/quartz" - casting-bar config
"/dominos" - actionbar config
"/raven" - buff/debuff-display config
"/tiptac" - tooltip config
"/dockingstation" - LDB display container config
"/grid2" - for grid raidframes config
"/hr" - toggles Blizzard's raidframes on/off (default: off)

You can change the minimap tracking setting by hovering over the minmap and clicking the middle mousebutton.

The Group Finder window, Garrison Report window and Calendar are all accessible from 3 buttons left of the minimap. See below image for reference.



I've also added 2 buttons for quick access to the Dungeon Journal window and Collections window. See below image for reference.



Most addon settings can be adjusted using the default Interface-menu.

Every addon in this compilation can be updated manually, except for:
SharedMedia
LibSharedMedia
Dominos_Progress


Pre-release versions of this UI can be viewed @ the following locations on YouTube:

!Enjoy!

- v1.19
Updated most of the addons included in the UI

Replaced the abandoned Dominos_XP with Dominos_Progress (similarly custom tweaked for the UI)

Removed IHasNoScope (error suppression addon) and redirected all error messages through MSBT (thanks to ErrorMonster)

Tweaked player level text width to accommodate triple-digit levels (for both resolutions)

- v1.18
Updated (almost) all of the addons included in the UI

Replaced OmniCC with tullaCC

Replaced ArkInventory with Adibags (more stable atm)

Added "Classic Quest Log" because an old-school quest log is needed IMO

Using latest version of Dominos, but I deliberately didn't include the Domonis_Progress addon. It's meant to track xp/legendary-weapon-xp/etc. in Legion, and I will eventually be switching to it, but atm my old modded Dominos_XP works fine.

Garrison Report button functionality is left intact. I assume this will change when Legion officially launches, and I'll probably make the button open up UI elements related to Class Order Halls (if there are any).

- v1.17
Updated (almost) all of the addons included in the UI

Pet'n'mount button changed to Collections button (thanks to "themurloc" on the WoWinterface forums!)

Tweaked settings in Grid2

PvP button changed to Garrison Report button.

Dungeon button tooltip changed to "Dungeons & PvP"

Replaced the bag addon Adibags with ArkInventory. I still prefer to use Adibags in the UI, but at the time of writing this there still wasn't a v6.1 compatible version available, and the older versions had a few nasty bugs in them.

There seems to be a tooltip bug related to the new Death Recap window (by Blizzard). Nothing I can do about it - a /reloadui or /reload fixes it (the bug results in an enlarged, fixed tooltip width). If you don't mouse-over abilities in the Death Recap window you can avoid this bug.

- v1.16
Updated addons included in the UI

XP-bar now properly hides during pet battles

Replaced shMem and shPerformance with Statblock_FPS, Statblock_Memory and Statblock_Latency.

Modified Elloria's Buttonfacade_Aion (later/currently known as Masque_Aion) to work with the latest version of Masque (which recently dumped Buttonfacade legacy support). Elloria of WoWinterface fame still deserves full credit for the original artwork and mod.

Tweaked player health a power bar positions (by a few pixels) to fix texture misalignment in the 1920x1080 version of the UI

Modified LFDungeon and LFPVP button onClick events in order for them to work with latest WoW API changes

- v1.15
Updated addons included in the UI

- v1.14
Updated addons included in the UI

Anchored minimap overlay texture to the actual minimap itself instead of bottom bars (hopefully fixing strata related bugs)

- v1.13
Updated addons included in the UI

Repositioned the quest and achievement tracker (chinchilla)

Changed strata of minimap from medium to low in order for LFG and PVP icon tooltips to be visible (chinchilla)

- v1.12
Updated addons included in the UI

Removed SimplePowerBar since Dominos is now handling the ExtraActionButton and EncounterBar

Replaced Parrot with MikScrollingBattleText (MSBT) and reconfigured ErrorMonster to output in the MSBT Notification scroll area

Added 2 buttons for quick access to the Dungeon Journal window and Pets'n'Mounts window. Both have working tooltips and will autohide when a PetBattle initiates.

Reduced the number of buffs and debuffs shown at the Target and Focus unitframe. Number of buffs are now 24 (down from 36) and number of debuffs are now 20 (down from 40). This was done to reduce UI clutter in the top of the screen.

Removed faction info from tooltip

Added dungeon-role icon to Grid2's right-frame position

Softened the hard edges of the Target and Focus unitframe texture for both the cobalt and golden version of the UI

Fixed the background alpha for the castbar(s) in the golden version of the UI

Note: when starting a Pandaren character, the PvP faction icon located to the left of the Target and Focus unitframe healthbar will bug out and display a solid green frame, until you actually select a faction (Horde or Alliance).

- v1.11
Updated addons included in the UI

Added new castbar textures for player/target/focus with improved transparency

Added onLoad code to every kgPanels texture to force hiding during PetBattles

Enabled Stuf Unitframes option to hide during PetBattles

And did a bunch of tweaks I've already forgotten about!

- v1.10
Updated a few of the addons included in the UI

Fixed all the frame-level issues related to unitframes, castbars and nameplates.

Added SimplePowerBar to reposition the AlternatePowerBar

Added ErrorMonster to get quest-info output sent to Parrot

Attempted to fix the XP-bar tooltip flickering issue by disabling the tooltips for shMem, shPerformance and shLatency. Crude fix == might not work.

- v1.09
Updated almost every addon in the UI for WoW 5.0.X compatibility

Removed ACP (AddonControlPanel) because of bugs

Replaced RaidHide with HideRaidFrame

Added Ace3

Removed TotemTimers due to Shaman changes. Stuf will display totem cooldowns instead.

Disabled overheals and loot in Parrot

Configured PriestBar and ChiBar in Stuf. Reconfigured DeathKnightRuneBar.

Disabled BossFrames in Chinchilla

Added custom tooltips to the customized LFD, PVP and Calendar buttons.

Removed insanely bloated font from SharedMedia (wqy-zenhei)

Fixed onEvent script(s) in kgPanels, in order for the customized raid-background to show/hide/resize properly in raids.

And loads of other tweaks I can't remember ;)

- v1.08
Added optional cobalt blue textures (finally!).

Added modified ButtonFacade_Aion textures to go with the new cobalt blue color scheme.

Added modified Dominos-XP-bar to mimic the original Aion experience bar. Including tooltip function.

Added Zork's IHasNoScope addon for error message handling.

Disabled the Grid2 icon from the DockingStation bar.

Updated the included addons to latest stable version.

- v1.07
Updated the included addons for patch 4.3.

Replaced ErrorMonster with Haste's IHasNoScope error-spam-management addon.

- v1.06
Added Grid2 for raidframe support!

Added RaidHide to remove every last bit of the default Blizzard raidframes (including the annoying left side-menu)

Removed text on mouse-over on the XP-bar. It was unreadable due to the tiny height of the bar.

Updated AdiBags

- v1.05
Repositioned class-specific power bars: holy power, soul shards, eclipse and runes.

Repositioned and stickied stance bar.

Repositioned tooltip anchor to above and slight to the right of the minimap, similar to what you would find in the native Aion UI.

Replaced Bagnon with AdiBags.

Replaced TipTop with TipTac (yay, TipTac is up2date:).

Replaced SatrinaBuffFrame with Raven. Raven is a worthy replacement, it's up2date and it rocks!

Removed TinyDPS. I couldn't find a fitting location for it, and ultimately it goes against the Aion theme and spirit to add any sort of damage-meter to the UI.

Disabled ticks from showing up on the player's castbar.

All remaining addons were replaced by the latest version found on WoWinterface and WoWace.

- v1.04
Updated for patch 4.2

- v1.03
Added support for 1920x1080 ! (quite a few people requested it) ;)

Removed TipTac, replaced it with TipTop.

Focus-target health percentage text was missing - fixed.

Focus-target-of-target raid-icon was missing - fixed.

Player power-bar color has been changed to class dependent.

- v1.02
Every single healthbar and powerbar re-configured to get the proper round-edge-blending with the associated texture.

Target health value text removed and replaced with a look similar to the original Aion-style, which in essence divides the target healthbar up into 4 quarters of texture each representing 25% health.

I also opted for having the exact target health percentage listed on the right side of the target unitframe for when you need to know the exact percentage value. ;)

You can still obtain the exact total health value by mousing over the unit and read the tooltip.

Mrplow was removed due to a plethora of bugs under 4.0.6.

A bunch of addons were updated, and many of them were tweaked.

- v1.01
First release.

Re: Buffs Disappearing

Glad you like it!
The addon I use for displaying buffs/debuffs is called "Raven" (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...aven.html#info).

It should show you buffs to the left of your target-frame and debuffs to the right. As shown below:


The reason why you're not seeing Raven could be because the addon hasn't been loaded (check the Addon settings from the character selection screen, and make sure Raven is enabled), or because it's somehow positioned "outside" the view of your screen.

I'm guessing you are running a resolution of either 1920x1080 or 1920x1200, and you already ran the following command?
Code:
/reflux switch MyAionUI
You can also try and reset the position of Raven manually, by going to the Raven config options accessed by the command below.
Code:
/raven
Feel free to let me know if it's still not working for you, because there could be a bug with the latest version of Raven and the current live version of WoW. In that case, we could try rolling Raven back a version of two.

Buffs Disappearing

I just installed this compilation (very well done, btw) and I cannot see any of my buffs unless I select myself, and even then I can't click any of them off if needed (like Levitate). Any idea how to get them to show up again?

I uploaded v1.15 of the UI. Every addon has been updated to its latest version.

@KillaChris: the bug you experienced with right-clicking "Set Focus" should be fixed in the latest version of Stuf Unitframes included in the UI.
I tried replicating it using a WoW trial account, and I did not get any bugs.
For future reference, if you ever come across this Stuf Unitframes bug again, you can goto the "Keybindings" options menu and bind "Focus" to a specific key or key-combination (I use Ctrl+F myself), and you'll avoid any bugs the right-clicking option might give you.

I'll see if I can replicate that bug. It's probably just a thing with Stuf Unitframes. If so, I could upload a new version of the UI with up-2-date addons included.

EDIT:
Actually, looking at the latest Stuf Unitframes changelog, I found:
5.4.002a 12/15/2013:
- druid mana while shapeshifted should properly function
- Set Focus from right-click menu maybe works again
So apparently, it was/is a known issue. If their latest version doesn't fix it, I won't be able to help you unfortunately.
Regardless, I'll upload a new version of the UI with the latest addons.

The reason why I'm not uploading a bunch of new versions in-between major content patches, is because I no longer play the game, and I kind of need to be subbed to test every aspect of the UI. I can't justify staying subbed for months on end just to work on addons/UIs, even though that's pretty much what I spent my last year of game-time doing . So far, I've been re-subbing when a major patch hits live servers, which gives me a chance to get a new version of the UI out .

Rest assured, the UI ain't dead.
Aw shoot you fully quit the game? That's too bad, but I understand. :-) And I appreciate that you try to resub just to make sure things work, that's really thoughtful of you!

Thanks for the quick reply, it's good to hear from you!

I uploaded a new version of the UI (v1.14) - updated a bunch of addons including Dominos and Chinchilla. I also did the XP-bar lua fixes. Check it out and see if it helps.

Hmm - did you manually update Dominos yourself? If so, don't overwrite the Dominos_XP folder in the UI, since I do a lot of tweaking to the XP.lua code to make it look Aion'esk.

I can understand why you would want to update Dominos and Chinchilla, but I'll need to make modifications to the most recent version of Dominos' XP.lua file before it'll work with the latest version of Dominos (could upload that to you somewhere, if you'd like ).

As a healer I remember having my eyes on raid-frames 90% of the time, so I would try to center the UI around those.
Thank you so much for the tips. I *want* to use your UI so badly, my screen resolution and needs for certain things (DBM, raid stuff, healing, etc.) makes it SO hard to fit everything. I keep coming back here though and oo-ing and aaah-ing over it, lol. If I can't get this to work for me, I hope to goodness more people out there can, as your UI is really lovely. I wish Blizz's UI could look more like this, honestly! I know it's based off Aion but you did a TON of work to fit it all. I know, I tried very recently to do my own layered goodness with kgpanels and just about fried my brain, lol.

Anyway thank you so much for your help, keep up the good work. :-)
