FestivalTimer (former HallowTimer)

Version: 2.1.3
by: prof17 [More]

This mini addon shows a small progressbar counting down time until certain in-game events begin or end.

By default, It only works only for major ingame world events (like Lunar Festival or Hallow's End) for 7 days before the event and during the event (counting until the time an event ends). More events can be added using the configuration UI.

The configuration UI is now available wih the /fest command.

The included TitanPanel plugin shows the nearest upcoming event within the countdown time. Mouseover it to see the list of upcoming events. Right-click it to open the configuration window.

NOTICE: When run for the first time after installation, update, configuration reset or in new month, the addon will update its event database sortly after entering the game. Please do not open the in-game Calendar until you see a message in chat window saying that the update has finished.

Mouseover the bar to see the time left until certain events end or begin.
Right-click the bar to make the time frame not hide when the mouse leaves it, allowing to click it. This will pause the timers.
Click on any event name to track it.
IF you have selected an event to track, click the reset button that appears to track the nearest event.

It is black-white by default, you can change the color with a slash command (see below) or in the configuration UI.

Slash commands:
/fest - Show the configuration UI
/fest reset - Reset the bar position in case it goes off-screen
/fest restore - Restore the bar position after the reset command or update.
/fest color (fg or bg) (red) (green) (blue) - changes the color of the left or right side of the bar

If a new event is created (ie. guild event), you may want to update the event database by clicking the option in the upper-right corner of the main configuration UI.

Known notable issues:
May become corrupted if logged in or reloaded outside the home realm server
The mouseover frame timer pauses when right-clicking the bar to choose event to track
The configuration UI only shows events within 32 days from now.
