KaitUI  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.1.1
by: Kaitain1977 [More]

The only resolution that is supported is 1920x1080. Most other resolutions should still work, but I can't guarantee it. You may have to adjust the layout a bit yourself.

As WeakAuras is part of the UI upload, back up / export your own WAs before installing.

KaitUI is beer-powered. If it runs out of beer, it stops working.

Cheers!



Step 1

Backup your current UI. Do this by opening your WoW folder and moving the Fonts, Interface and WTF folder to a safe place elsewhere on your hard drive. If things go wrong later, put these folders back into your WoW folder and all will be as it was.

Step 2

Unzip the download and move the Fonts, Interface and WTF folder into your WoW folder

Step 3

Inside the WTF folder you will find folders that are name WTF > Account > ACCOUNTNAME > SavedVariables. Rename the folder called ACCOUNTNAME to be whatever your account name is. If you are unsure what to name it, check the folders that you backed up in Step 1.

Step 3.5

Go to https://www.tukui.org/download.php?ui=elvui and download ElvUI. Once you've unzipped the download, put the two folders into your Interface>Addons folder.

Step 4

Start WoW. On the character selection screen, click the Addons button in the bottom left, then in the top right of the panel that pops up

Make sure that Load out of date AddOns is checked.

Make sure ALL addons in the list are enabled

Step 5

Once you are in the game, ElvUI will be propting you with instalation stuff.

Click SKIP PROCESS

Step 6

Once Elv has reloadui your UI, you might need to use the Raid Frame Menu (second from right of the footer buttons) to change raid frames to one of the presets

Also -
I just found a small issue with the buffs - If when targeting yourself the buff and debuffs top left and top right aren't symmetrical, go to ElvUI (/elvui) > Buffs & Debuffs, and disable. It will ask you to reloadui.


When using KaitUI, you can safely update these addons:

ElvUI
Raven
WeakAuras2
Plexus
DynamicCam
MoveAnything


+ any others that you add yourself

But do NOT try to update these:

kgPanels
Plexus Layouts
SharedMedia
KaitMedia



NOTES

- Open WeakAuras with /wa for now (not the menu).
Opening WeakAuras config with the menu first causes it to appear with items missing from the aura list. Collapse/uncollapse something in the list and it will immediately fix it. After the config has been opening once it should be fine all subsequent times.

- there are some hidden bars (including bar1) to the right of the main action bar. These are bars for keybinds. The main visible bar is for showing cooldowns. The assumption is that you know what your keybinds are.

- the pet bar and class power bars kind of ruin the elegance of the player frame area. I personally will be using weakauras to show them in a more contextual way, but I thought I'd leave the Elv versions visible as default in case anyone got confused.

- The 3D model of you character on the Spec/Talents screen is positioned as if your character is a female night elf. For some other races, specifically small races, your player model might be way off. I'll make a tutorial on how to fix that soon, but basically you have to exlude your race from loading on the main KaitUI Talents > Player aura, duplicate it and make the new aura only load for your race, then adjust the XYZ display values. Don't use the slider's though, edit the texts, because you have to do it blind. When in WA config, it's not showing you the model right.


Suggested additional addons:

Opie is a wonderfully elegant solution for using things like potions, crafting, etc. I notice a lot of games bind icon wheel interfaces to the C key (like Overwatch), so if you do that with OPie it feels very natural.

Clique Do more with your mouse when healing. Not really necessary if you never heal.

2.1.1 Removed ElvUI files (needs to be downloaded from ElvUI site, because ElvUI).

2.1 Updated for Shadowlands

1.2 - Added a new action Bar below the main bar (this was often requested). Changed the layout so that quest tracking is not back on the right, DPSer raid frames on the left. This was so I could remove the code making the minimap hiding and raid frames interact. My code was buggy and crap, and now it's gone. Hurray! UIscaler addon removed because it seemed to not be working anymore.

1.1 - Updated for patch 6.1. Some addons updated, some TOCs updated, some WeakAuras changes and updates

1.0.2 - Changed scripts in KaitMedia addon and in kgPanels that relate to Grid so that (hopefully) nothing freaks out too badly if you don't have Grid installed (i.e. if you want to use a different raid addon). The popup panels for changing Grid profiles won't do anything for you without Grid, but at least they aren't going to cause errors. Uou need Grid enabled to run /kaitinstall. Install the profiles then switch your raid addon afterwards.


1.0.1 - Updated KaitMedia script to fix a non-English client bug. Updated some kgPanels scripts to fix a non-English client bug. Added Clampy's focus bar WeakAura for hunters. Stopped Party Frames (P) button from causing error when not in a group.

1.0 - Updated some kgPanels scripts. Added some new WeakAuras bars for moonkin and demon warlock. Added some graphics to the KaitMedia folders. Changed the KaitInstaller script. Removed Opie, Bindpad and Dominos, and added Bartender4.

0.7.1 - Updated some kgPanels scripts to cause less lua errors

I do it according to the instructions. But when you enter the game ElvUI, it offers the setting and that's all, if you close the window, it does not restart the UI and remains by default.

Thank you for your work, I really liked your first interface. It is a pity that the main frames are now ElvUI.

You can certainly disable Plexus and use Vuhdoo instead. However if you want to use the popup menu to change Vuhdoo profiles/layouts, you'll need to edit the scripts in kgPanels.

Apparently "ElvUI doesn't allow their core files to be downloaded from any site other than their own.". I'll try to fix it tomorrow. Unfortunately it will mean people will have to install Elv then install KaitUI I guess. Assuming the settings files aren't "core files".
Thx for your kindly job. It's OK now.
Love your nice work.

I don't have friendly name plates on. I find the nameplates become a design car crash when there's too many. It's bad enough with just enemy plates.

I heal and do BG assist type spells using the raid frames.

Thank you!! I changed the zoom speed to super slow a while back when I was trying to get off-the-shoulder layout to work, because some of the best shoulder views are about 2 or 3 "clicks" on the scrollwheel from first person, which meant accidentally going 1st person a lot and that camera yoink at the end was unbearable...

... but I couldn't remember how I made it slow and couldn't switch it back :-)

Then i kind of forgot about it because I switched to using set camera views and a couple of buttons on my mouse to flip through them. I find it works really well for me as there are really only 3 views I ever want: far away (for clusterfuck raid fights), mid range (for most things), and close (for solo content / RP sexy vibes). For years I used to fidget with zoom on my scroll wheel.
