We Don't Wipe Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 3.02

by: Taraezor [More]

Description
A DPS maximiser. Displays a sequence of icons from left to right, representing the order in which you should use your abilities so that maximum DPS may be achieved. You 'plug in' modules for your class/specialisation into a single AddOn, ensuring a consistent and familiar interface across the range of your characters.

Supported Class/Specialisations
* Windwalker Monks
* Frost Deathknights (2H) 5.4!
* Frost Deathknights (DW) 5.4!
* Arcane Mages 5.4!
* Fire Mages 5.4!
* Frost Mages 5.4!
* Enhancement Shamans 5.4!
* Elemental Shamans 5.4!

* More to come!

DPS Rotations/Priorities
The author has already researched the most popular and effective rotation for your character. Allowance has been made for the Talents you have chosen. We Don't Wipe presents the next few abilities you should use. Due to randomness in the game, the queue of abilities will constantly change depending upon cooldowns, critical strike "procs", useful combinations, and so on.

We Don't Wipe is perfect for anyone wishing to come to grips with the latest thinking for the mechanics of a class/specialisation through to seasoned raiders wishing to maximise their DPS.

For notes specific to a class/spec you should see the respective Module download page.

Features

Priority queue displayed as a dynamic sequence of up to 10 icons
Dynamic class relevant Charge display (e.g. Maelstrom Weapon / Arcane Charges)
Accurate distance range estimation
Modularised: Make your own rotations and upload and share with others!
Prompts for interrupts, mob dispels and friendly dispels
In-game icon based editing and display of your selected rotation cooldowns
In-game icon based editing and display of abilities to exclude from rotations
Cooldowns (Shown & Excluded) may come from your spellbook, equipment, buffs, bags and IDs
Tooltips for all rotation and CD icons and configurable options
Configurable icon positions and sizes
Multiple rotations are supported
Supports Racials, whether for rotation queue, CD list, or interrupts/dispels
You do not need to be level 90 to use WDW!
Global Cooldown dynamically monitored/calculated/configureable
Key bindings for rotations and for changing cooldown/rotation synergy
Mob classification/type/family shown
Debug mode available to module authors (or anyone really)
Rotations researched from reputable and well known sources
Does NOT track the Combat Log. Meaning that the core of WDW is not CPU hungry

Cooldowns
Aside from the modularised rotations in a centralised core, the other defining characteristic of WDW is Cooldowns. You can configure this list while playing, using the built in editor. It is powerful and intuitive. Racials like Berserker are supported. You can tell a module which abilities you wish to have excluded. This is a separate list to your displayed Cooldowns.

How to Instal Simplified for v3.01!!!
Install as you would any other addon. Go to "Interface" and then "Addons" from the game menu to adjust to your liking. Try also /wdw from any in game chat channel.

See 'Modules' below as this page is for the WDW "engine". You will also need to download modules.

How to Move WDW
Firstly go to "Game Menu" then "Interface" then "AddOns". For We Don't Wipe look at "Queue Settings". Ensure "Locked" is not checked. Return to the game. Hover the mouse over the centre of the first ability icon in the main queue. Must be in the centre area. Now hold down the left mouse button and drag and release. Easy!

Modules
WDW ships with its core engine files along with a fairly empty 'Modules' folder. A template with notes is provided for budding LUA programmers to have a go at their own WDW module. Obviously changes to a module don't necessitate a full download of WDW, a key advantage since v3.00.

Use the links above to download modules.

Drop the downloaded module(s) file into the "Modules" folder. It is that easy! No file editing for v3.01!!!

Performance
WDW builds a saved Spellbook and other lists each time you enter the world or a zone/instance or update your talents. During combat it relies upon being 'polled' by Blizzard's servers and just displays a pre-processed sequence of icons that was built by a class/spec module. Modules written by the author of WDW do NOT trap and track the combat log. Instead they go through a priority list of actions and decide where in the next 10 (or less if the player decides) x 'Global Cooldowns' that action must occur. Every class/spec has a filler action and these are used to plug in the gaps. The core of WDW is very light. The simplicity or complexity of a module is the determinant of any performance issues.

If you do think that WDW is weighing you down, you can configure things such as how often it cycles.

Updates & Favourites
You can make We Don't Wipe a Favourite and get an automatic notification (PM) or email (enabled through your profile) when I update it.

Cookies, Beer & Donations
It is all about the Cookies & Beer although, and don't let Gallywix know about this, a "thank you" in the comments section fuels my programming appetite and is very much appreciated. And then, you could cut straight to

because as Gallywix would say... "time is money, friend".

Wanting more from Cooldowns or Distance Estimation?
You might like to try using Cool Aid to give even more customisation to the Cooldown display elements of WDW (you'll need to disable displaying Cooldowns via WDW). The same is true for the distance estimation with Hard Yards.

v3.02
====
* Saved Spellbook "active" spell limit exceeded by a player. Extended from 56 to 70
* Added ability to specify Cooldown or Item by ID number!

* Test for 'interruptible' now specially checks for channelled spells bypassed by Blizzard's regular API call
* Removed buff check exclusion for non-DKs when mounted. Response to user feedback

* If target is a player then the usual target information text replaced with some basic player relevant stuff
* Interface options panel better organised, some rewordings
* Friendly audible login welcome sound, tailored for races
* New error, warning, debug messages. Colour coded. And the old standard 'print' message too

v2.03

* Interface options panel cleaned up but still has that cozy "Ace" feel (Core + Interface)
* Removed "Ace" as a dependancy. WDW now its own boss (Core + Interface + TOC)
* Calculation of number of each type of DK rune is now accurate and not a (pretty good) estimate (Core)
* Helpful message and sound for when seeking to reposition the icons (Core)
* Allow for more CD icons (Core)
* Allow for more than two DK Death runes (Actions)
* Mini icon glow effect added & tested. Unused at present (Core)

* DK must be >= L87 for Soul Reaper (Actions)
* DK must be >= 81 for Outbreak (Actions)

* Exclude Auto Attack from pre-scanned Spellbook (Core)
* Invisible first/main icon could previously be moved (if you were clever). Now not possible (Core)
* Notify other users of your WDW version and prompt player if player has an out of date WDW version (Core)
* Spellbook scanning now correctly knows about and allows multiple spells with the same name. Relevant to Mage Polymorph (Core)
* Removed the 'Up to You' icon. It was a dumb idea but fun at the time to see Hula Dolls and icecream cones on the screen (Core)
* Now works properly for Mana Gems. What a hack job that was (Core)
* Changed Welcome message and added a non-intrusive welcome sound (Core)
* Fun stuff (Core + Interface)

v1.05
====

* Fix bug when switching from Frost to Arcane, with no zone change and then generating 1 Arcane Charge

v1.04
====

* Frost Death Knights added
* Massive performance boost. No longer throttles cpu (lesson: don't blindly trust what you read on the net, test for yourself!)
* Tooltips for all icons
* Keybindings revamped, including the bug in v1.03. Now bi-directional for both rotation & cooldown
* Mouse wheel support as an alternative to keybindings
* Frost Mages no longer prompted for Water Elemental when mounted
* Slight range text placement adjustment to allow for null queues (unlikely as it is)
* The forced English language for a player's "specialisation" removed. Thus more non-English friendly
* Shaman Reincarnation correctly shows when dead and not on CD
* Mage Tier 2 talent no longer assumed to be Ice Barrier (unlikely as that would be in PvE)

v1.03
====

* Frost Mages added
* Revamped the AoE rotations for Mages
* Fixed bug with a rarely appearing phantom cool down for the last spell in the queue
* Fixed an AoE rotation addon crash for one of the Mage specs
* Added debug code for a couple of very rare errors due to Blizzard returning nil data for an API call, one relating to the "charge" counts to the left of the main queue icon.

v1.02
====

* Arcane Mages added
* Fire Mages added
* Mini icons to display Interrupts/target dispel/player dispel/cooldowns
* More complicated rotations
* More configuration options
* Minor bug fixes, too numerous to mention
* Split main file into several files to ease management

v1.01
====

* Elemental Shaman added

* The "Strictly no AoE" mode has been incorporated into the other modes, accessible by clicking on a key binding.
* The tables of rotations, spells and actions have been edited to facilitate expansion as well as to protect against trampling on other add-ons due to shared naming.
* The range estimation now never tests spells, only items. It took me a long time of experimenting to get the distances right and to hunt down the items.
* Previously stuck on "Automatic" due to carelessness.
* Perhaps some minor cosmetic bugs. I really forget. Nothing remarkable.

Taraezor A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 52 Uploads: 10	I am not back (again) lol Inactive player for about two years but was energised enough to make WDW and the modules. Inactive again. Waiting for next expansion before I resume active development again. Currently about to teach myself App programming! Will buy a short WoW sub, maybe even a cheap account, and resume for the next expansion as I actually really enjoy what I am doing, lol. My HDD failures (see below) also caused my WW module code update for 5.4 to be lost, a new fishing AddOn, my 2014 April Fools code and a new AddOn around our in game "Titles", to be lost forever. Discouraging. Also I know the modules perform very very well when compared to the "competition" but I can't be bothered marketing my AddOn. Disappointing when other AddOns get heaps more downloads, even though they give inferior DPS results. I won't name AddOn names as that is rude to the dudes who went to the trouble of gifting the community with their AddOns. __________________ Who wipes? We Don't Wipe - to maximise your DPS!

Re: Module Hassles

Ovale just packages all of them in a single addon, is all. And (not sure how they do it) but Nerien writes alternate scripts for Ovale, it installs as a separate addon, yet shows up IN Ovale without user intervention.

Thank you again for taking the time to make this addon!

Taraezor A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 52 Uploads: 10	Bug Fix + New Feature A player somehow exceeded the max number of "active" spells I preload into a table. Table extended by 14 to 70. Should be heaps. While I was at it I added a new feature: You can now enter an ID number (from a datamining website such as Wowhead) in order to specify a cooldown to show or exclude! Because of the bug fix I have delayed the Windwalker Monk update again, sadly. __________________ Who wipes? We Don't Wipe - to maximise your DPS!

Taraezor A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 52 Uploads: 10	Stay a While and Listen! Moving forward I have lots of exciting ideas, the least of which is adding more class/specs! I am aware of the need for some players to be able to click through the queue textures. You are not ignored. I am also aware that the Tooltips are helpful to many players, at least while they are getting their head around an unfamiliar rotation and sure beats trying to work this out for yourself off some pro-player website. Some of you will be aware that I have already forked the Cooldown side of things into its own AddOn (which incidentally can be made to work in with WDW - it is by design!) and this "forking" will be extended with a quantum leap eventually. Some of the existing and planned features of Cool Aid might find their way over to WDW! __________________ Who wipes? We Don't Wipe - to maximise your DPS!

Taraezor A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 52 Uploads: 10	Windwalkers and 5.4 - Why the Delay? I know what needs to be done for 5.4: Support for Tier16 4pc. Not a simple task as this module has a very complex routine within the queue building process which will need major changes. Yup, no-one will have 4 pieces for several weeks (lol) so if I can't get my head around the routine tomorrow during my lunch break (heck, I was the one wot wrote the thing!) then I'll upload a 5.4 compliant module with T16 to come later. The WW module is one of the ones I am most pleased with as I know I got the Chi juggling in the queue 100% right and there ain't nothing like it out there in AddOn land! __________________ Who wipes?

I have not played on it in a while and instead of getting my butt kicked need a refresher and i really love how it works and it feels very comfortable.

Thanks for your time and for reading.

* Druids no sorry to say. I am slowly picking off my list of high level Alts and before Druids will be Ret Pally, Locks, Unholy DKs.

* Installation now much easier: no file editing required. Just drop one of my modules into the "Modules" folder and done!

* Thanks for your kind words. Appreciated!

Taraezor A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 52 Uploads: 10	Latest News Elemental Shaman is LIVE! With Patch 5.4 upon us I really must look at being ready with any updates. Patches force EVERY AddOn to undergo a small one line change, at best. Factor in changes to abilities and some WDW modules may need some work. I have a volunteer for Fury Warriors (as I don't do them). Which is great news. Fury will be next up. I want to do Unholy DKs, especially as I have a L90 toon. And for some reason I have never considered a Ret Pally module. Heck I have a max level toon. Just never thought about it until now! __________________ Who wipes?

That will be a real problem as my Warrior is very very low level.

In regards to classes/specs I do not play:

I am willing to work with someone, even if they cannot do LUA programming. They would have to commit to receiving PMs from me, realise that time zones might work against us, understand that initially there would be a flurry of trivial programming errors to overcome as I use a basic text editor as my only development tool which means that sometimes I have lots of typos

, and be willing to stand at target dummies for 15 minutes at a time! In return they would receive dual credit for the module, including in-game mention.
