YKTarget  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.4
by: Shooshting [More]

Special Thanks
To Scott C, I appreciate what you did. Thank you very much.

Update History
2.4 : Added Isle of Conquest to list of battlegrounds. Addon now shows regardless of being party leader due to all group members being able to mark. (Thanks to ffxiedyn for giving me the heads up)
2.3 : Updated toc for 3.3
2.3 : Fixed bug with force hide. Updated for patch 3.2.
2.2 : Increased X & Y values for larger screens. Also added manual entry for X & Y Values.
2.1 : Fixed bug on not loading default theme on first use.
2.0 : Added Autohide, Skins, Fixes
1.1 : Added ZIP file version.

What Is YKTarget?
YKTarget is a World of Warcraft addon created for making party/raid targeting easier and quicker. The previous incarnation of this addon was NYAN Raid Target which has now been abandoned and replaced with YKTarget.

YKT's official home is www.yetikitn.com/yktarget



**** Version 2 Updates & Changes ****

Slash command /ykt now forces hide.
Several skins added.
Auto Hide function added (only shows when targeting a mob).
Also hides when entering battlegrounds.
General bug fixes.

for more up to date info / pictures look at the officeal YKT page.

Enjoy


What Does It Do?

The addon displays targeting icons by default in the top center of the screen. A button for each raid target icon, 1 for clearing an icon, and 1 for ready check are all available.

The addon will only display when you are in a group or raid and have the ability to target. In other words you need to be a party leader, raid leader, or raid assistant for it to popup. This was done to keep your screen as clear as possible when you're not able to target.

In addition, the addon will not show while you are in Wintergrasp. This was added after testing and found that there was no real reason to show the addon whilst PvPing. The addon also hides during other battlegrounds.

There is one slash command for YKT and that is /ykt : this toggles force hiding the addon.

What Can I Customise?
At the moment you can offset its position on the screen. Alter its scale and its transparency to suit your play style and as of version 2 you can choose different skins.

2.3 : Fixed bug with force hide. Updated for patch 3.2.
2.2 : Increased X & Y values for larger screens. Also added manual entry for X & Y Values.
2.1 : Fixed bug on not loading default theme on first use.
2.0 : Added Autohide, Skins, Fixes
1.1 : Added ZIP file version.

Re: Re: TY

I've noticed that the "auto-hide" state doesn't save on relog. I have to uncheck and recheck the box every time i log in to get the icons to only show when I have an attackable target.

Does this addon reflect this change?
Thanks for letting me know about this, I will update the addon real soon

If you press Escape the choose Interface, then the Addons tab you can see the options there

Personally, I like the simplicity of Gloss Horizontal. I scale it down really small and place it right above the mobs portrait. Very easy to get to and change a target on the fly.

Other addons have more functionality (Quick Mark) that allow you to assign team members to certain targets and whisper players or raid on assignments but they do not have the flexibility to change size, location and shape the way YKTarget does. That flexibility is the most important feature for me as I hate when adds get in the way of me getting my job done. Love this add on! Thanks for your work on it and the great improvements with the latest release!!
You're very welcome and I'm glad you find it useful. Always nice to hear someone out there likes this addon

May your raids be swift and your loots plentyful!

Hello,

Alright then. I find the current blizzard raid icon system is slow and not fun, so I might give this a shot.

Thanks!

Hi there, thanks for the suggestion. However, there is a autohide option already there and for the addon to work how you want would mean a complete overhaul.

I may consider it for a later version if more people show interest.

Hi Ross,

No problem I will get to work on the movement options. As for rotation, thats still something on the cards but might take some time.

Thanks for the new version Like the new skins pretty nice. I do have a request for the next update though

Is there anyway you can make it so it actually goes all the way to the top/bottom and left/right of my screen when i use the X,Y options? I take it the 1000/-1000 on the "X" is pixels? so if you use a higher resolution it won't move over any further same with the "Y". I use the resolution 1280 x 1024.

I guess an example of what I am trying to do could help

http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/w...erface-Min.jpg

That my current interface, right now your YKT pops up at the top center, I want it to actually pop up at the bottom right where my pet bar is and would like to turn it 180 degrees so the flat part touches my shot rotation panel. That way its easier for me to mark targets since I am a clicked I won't have to move my curson all the way to the top then back to the bottom.
