CursorCastbar  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.5b
by: Duugu, humfras

CursorCastBar adds circular cast bar(s) to your mouse cursor.

Cast bar, Global Cooldown Bar, Mirror Bar, Remaining cast time, Spell Name, Spell Icon, and more.

The configuration is done via the Blizzard interface options.


TO DO (in no particular order):

  • Healing Bar - incoming heal/overheal for current cast/target
  • optional focus castbar
  • optional round spell icons
  • modifier/key to temporary hide the bars or set the opacity to very low (eg in critical situations)
  • more bar layout options (start point, end point, etc)
  • text for the mirror bar


Known Bugs:
  • Bug: Mac client crashes with high-res textures. This is known a game bug within the Mac client. It happens with large textures above 512*512 pixels.
    Solution: Don't choose the high-res bar textures. Choose textures 1, 2, or 3. The game shouldn't crash with them.

Dear user


My WoW subscriptions end in may 2011. After more than six years playing WoW and developing addons I absolutely can't find a reason to continue. The direction Blizzard is steering with WoW is more than unfruitful.
The game is dead. It's an empty shell. A sad moment, but that's the way it is.


This means of course all of my addons are discontinued as from now. Thank you very much for using them and for providing me feedback and input. A very special thank you goes to the few people who donated for them. There would be much more and better stuff if more people would act like you. Thank you.


I hereby explicitly reject any attempts to continue, take over or reuse this addon, the addons source code, the contents or parts of it.
If you are willing and able to continue this addon I may grant you the right to do this if you contact me, ask for it, and convince me that you are able to do it in the long run.


I’m looking forward to meet everyone of you again in SWTOR.


All the best to you

Duugu

Thank you.
There's no need for further tests. Let's way for Oomu's feedback.

Added that to my to do list. Thank you.

No, it wouldn't.
The addon isn't lightweight and won't become lightweight.

Feature request

nice concept, but i would like to know, if it would be possible to reduce the ring to only a half or quarter circle (for example only the bottom right quarter) for the cast bar, maybe other part for other bar. that would be really awesome.

my "dream-layout " would be:

big casting bar in the bottom-right quarter
small GCD for the whole circle around the cursor
mirror bar maybe on the inner side of casting bar going from full quarter circle to none
... and so

what do you say? it could maybe reduce the texture requirements also

Are there any error messages?
If not ... is the Blizzard LUA error message option enabled?
If not ... could you please enable the LUA errors ("Interface > Help > Show LUA error message" or something like that) and post the error message?

If there are no errors, even with the error option enabled, could you then please post a screenshot?

Thank you

[edit] Do you use the english client with spellnames, etc. in english?

"it"? The bar? The text? The addon?

As default all bars and texts are visible (at least if you cast something which has a cast time) and attached to the mouse cursor.

It's for everything at the moment. Was much easy to do than on a per-bar basis.
I could add a per-bar option if at least some people want that.


[edit] btw:
I'll do a little testing when I do dailies later, to see if I get the same problems as below
Any results from this?
Thx in advance.

Ive got a little problem :P well, problem.. I have moved the anchor to set over my character, so it looks lovely :P and I want the spell icon in the center of the castcircle, and the text over it.. But you coded it so it has the text behind the icon.. Can you code them so that you can select the strata or just basiccaly set the text on a higher strata than the icon

- New pages: "CastBar", "GCBar", "MirrorBar", "SwingBar", "SpellIcon", and "SpellText" with loads of new options

That'll be lovely to see when you get it coded in.

Also woot for spell icons, I hadn't even thought of that.

Please feel free to use as much of my code as you want.

Re: great addon; I love it. 2 bugs found

Originally posted by oomu
the castbar has problem with special "spell" like bombs in Quel'danas bombing quest. the castbar stays on the screen, not following the cursor anymore.
When you create a mage portal, the castbar is also stucked and move after the cursor jerkily.
Thx a lot. I'll fix this asap.

Is the quest this one http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=11533 or this one http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=11543?

Which language version do you use? If you language is english, could you please specify the exact spell name of mage's portal?
Does this happen with all portals?

Originally posted by oomu
feature : maybe the text of the cast should be horizontal, to the right of the cursor/rings.
I'll add this to my to do list. Thank you
