Vacant UI - Become a Better Player  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 4.0
by: V4cant [More]

Vacant UI 4.0
Sleek, clean & functional.

Version 4.0: Dragonflight Release

Most of the functionality is there and greatly improved upon since prior iterations. Thanks for the continued support. I return at the beginning of each expansion to make sure this UI is optimal and in working order. Appreciate all the kinds words, and as always let me know if anything is out of sorts (or what functonality you'd like me to add) and I will fix it ASAP.

Hey. I'm Vacant! I've played a Rogue on Tichondrius since vanilla. My goal with this project is to provide a visually appealing UI that clearly and cleanly presents pertinent information to immensely improve awareness in PVP and PVE situations.

Official Thread @ http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/to...1236770?page=1
http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/20747354724(NEW)






v3.0 Notes:

-Shadowlands: Most of the functionality has been restored. Will continue to update. Let me know what is broken. Thanks

v2.94 Notes:


-BfA prelaunch event updates. Everything should be working smooth. Post comments if any issues.

v2.7 Notes:

- Overall improvements made.
- Many WeakAuras added for Legion
- Added many legion cooldowns/abilties for each class
- Added/pruned PVP target alerts
- Polished many UI elements



Installation:

Enter your World of Warcraft folder. The default location is: C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft

1. Make a backup of your WTF and Interface folders.

2. Download and extract my UI to your desktop.

3. Go into my WTF folder, enter the Account folder, and rename the folder called
(YOURACCOUNTNAMEINCAPS) to your own account name, ALL IN CAPS.

4. Enter the (YOURACCOUNTNAMEINCAPS) folder and change the folder called (YourServerName) into your server name.

5. Enter the (YourServerName) folder and change the folder (YourCharacterName) into your character's name. (Also do this for any alts you have.)

6. Put my(the ones you've been editing) WTF and Interface folders in the place where your own folders used to be. The default location is: C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft

7. When installing for the first time, make sure you select "Load out of date Addons".

8. Once installed and in the game for the first time, type the following:

/gladius and select the profile: Default
/sexymap and select: "Use Global Profile".
/bt and select the profile: Default
/raven and select the profile: Default
/tmw lock
Interface > Addons > SCT > Profile Vacant-Tichondrius


You may have to manually adjust TidyPlates. You can turn nameplates on within Blizzard's interface options. To display enemy castbars under nameplates, you must go into the combat section of Blizzard's interface options and tick the "display castbar under enemy nameplate" option.

Also, you will have to adjust the Last Second (diminishing returns icons) positioning and visibility options to your liking. For some reason there is no built-in profile system for this addon. I use this to see my target and focus target's diminishing returns status. I place the icons under each respective frame, lined up with the bottom right edge with growth moving towards the left. I'd like to have these Icons grow downwards in the future.

AddOns:
Aurora - UI Skin
Aurora Missing Textures - UI Skin
BagBrother - Shows contents of bags/bank for alts.
BagNon - Merges all of your bags into one.
Bartender 4 - Actions bars / easy hotkey adjustments.
BattlegroundTargets
BoneFilter - Filters the annoying Broken Bone loot message.
Clique - I use this for Tricks of the Trade. It allows me to Shift+Right Click the frame of the person I want to Tricks.
Deadly Boss Mods - Disable unless you PVE.
Error Filter - Filters annoying / unnecessary errors message (You cannot do that while mounted. Etc.)
Fonter
Gladius - Arena target frames.
Gnosis - Castbars.
Grid - Party/raid fraim.
HideRaidFrame
kgPanels - Buttons, panels, borders, etc.
LastSecond - Displays diminishing returns of your target/focus target.
LoseControlFix
Masque - Button skinning.
MasterPlan - Removes the annoyances of managing Garrison missions.
MoveAnything - Move anything.
OmniCC
PetTracker - Shows stable locations on the map, and ability cooldowns of the pet(s) you're facing.
Prat - Chat management.
Postal - Mail management.
Rarity - Displays via Tooltip if the mob you're hovering over drops anything of interest.
Raven - Buff/debuff icons.
SCT - Scrolling Combat Text
SexyMap - Map management.
Skada - Damage meter.
Skinner
STUF - Unit Frames.
TidyPlates - Nameplates.
TipTac - Tooltip management.
Titan Panel - Bottom info bar.
WeakAuras - God Mode
Past Notes:

-Added functionality for Death Knight.
-Updated/added many general WeakAuras strings.
-Added WeakAuras strings for Frost Death Knight
-Added WeakAuras strings for Affliction Warlock
-Cleaned up several UI elements.
-Added OmniBar
-Removed TrufiGCD
-Support for Feral Druid.
-Organized how certain WeakAuras are displayed.
-Added several WeakAuras for, Feral Druid, Rogue, Arms Warrior, Retribution Paladin. Frost Mage, Survival/Marks Hunter.
-Configured Grid to display PVP crowd control icons on the unit frame.
-New Default Grid profile, moves Grid to the left-hand side of the screen directly under the player buffs.
-New Default Grid profile only displays members of your party. (If you want to display the entire raid, you can choose the other profile.
-Added Bartender Profile for Feral Druid (if you are using this with a Druid, you must select Druid rather than Default, when loading the UI on your Druid.
-Moved Skada
-TomTom added.
-Scrolling Combat Text positioning adjusted.
-Skinner removed! Aurora is back! After using Skinner for a bit, I decided that I preferred Aurora.
-Skinner now used for in-game Skinning. I feel it looks a bit cleaner than Aurora. Aurora is still included. Simply enable it and disable skinner, if you prefer it!
-HandyNotes added!
-Retribution Paladin added!
-Recount removed.
-Skada added. Click the crosshair button to show/hide and control click to reset data.
-Auctionator added.
-Various WeakAuaras added, most notably an aura that alerts you when a teammate successfully interrupts a cast. (Work in progress.)
-Bagnon polished.
-DBM alert positions adjusted.
-TidyPlates Raid Icon position adjusted.
-MiniMap position adjusted slightly.
-Polished the border visuals of several unit frames.
-Adjusted Gnosis castbar frames to match.
-Performance Tweaks
-Added several WeakAuras strings for Hunter, Mage, Rogue, Warrior.
-Raid Frame is now skinned.
-Minimap position adjusted.
-Changed several bar colors in WeakAuras.

-Moved placement of DBM alerts.
-Removed RougeSpamReborn
-Fixed quest objective updates not displaying. (Example: 6/8 Ravagers Slain)
-Performance tweak
-Farewell to Ace3, Pet Breed ID, and a few others
-FINALLY fixed a bug that has been plaguing me for some time now. Apparently there's a bug in Blizzard's UI frame that affects the STRATA(frame level) of certain UI elements making them sometimes unreadable/unclickable. Well, I finally found out that there's an addon called StrataFix that fixes this ANNOYING bug. Hugs and kisses goes to the legendary oscarucb for authoring this addon. That guy rules. For any of you using the UI who have experienced this ridiculously annoying issue, this is now fixed.
-Moved target unit frame and WeakAuras bars to better balance the UI
-Removed DBM bloat
-Removed SharedMedia LIb 3.0
-Blacklisted Windwalk
-Added tenths of seconds under 1 second in OmniCC

Like you (I think) I used to use BlkUI and one thing it had built in was the Unit Frame for the boss.

EG if you look at a very old screen shot of mine



Youll see that the Guardians in MSV gave 3 unit frames showing % health and their respective charge in the lower right.

Can you think of a way how we can replicate this from BlkUI into your cause on say hellfire assault im lost as I have no clear indicator of cannon health, ammo level etc etc.

Cheers.
Yes! You can enable this by typing /stuf config and then navigating to the Boss 1, Boss 2, etc. accordion menus and unchecking disable for each! You can then move the frames to wherever you'd like.
Ah Brilliant. I will go and check this out when I log in, in a bit.

Thank you

Thankyou for the hard work!

My question is... Is there is a good way to upgrade when you release a new version, or do I just do the full install method each time?
Thank you for the kind words!!! In most cases I would recommend re-following the installation instructions.

Thanks for checking out the UI!

Currently, I have WeakAuras display all of the truly important buffs and debuffs with an alert style notification. If you want to see every single buff and debuff on your target, you can type /stuf config and enable buffs and debuffs within the target accordion menu.

Try enabling it with Move Anything located in the "escape" menu.

What are your suggestions to make it more healer friendly? What would you like to see. Would love to hear feedback!
The first thing I would say would be to make the groupframes better. For example do I need to know which buffs I have on my teammates. (as a druid: regrowth etc. with a timer) I personaly think that grid does not provide enough options for that. (I normaly use the blizzard frames with the addon Bigbuffs for more buffs and debuffs on the frames) And I think that the cast bars are not suited for any caster at all. When I was playing on my Balance druid I couldn't realy see my casts (because the default bar is to small and does not stand out enough) so I downloaded Quartz and made my own cast bar

These 2 things would be the first steps to make it better for healing I think. For more I would think you should ask some more higherrated healers (I'm just a 1,5k scrub .. ) on what they need to see as a healer

Sorry for my bad english btw

Edit: Oh and I solved my problem: I just had to type /hr in chat (for the hideradeframe addon) and then disabling it.
Yes, definitely about being able to see more party member buffs and debuffs. I was actually experimenting with ways to do this with a combination of STUF and Grid. Currently, I only display important crowd control debuffs on the party frame.

In the next update, which I should be releasing soon, you can type /stuf then navigate to Party and uncheck disable within the Buffs and Debuffs menus, you can see an example.

Easy adjustment!

/omnicc

Raise the spiral transparency from 0 to 100%.

Thanks for checking out the UI!

I do plan on adding Windwalker and Brewmaster eventually.

As far as updating, I generally suggest following the installation steps again.
