Rosoaa's UI

Version: v3.1

by: Rosoaa [More]

UI Goal:

This UI is meant to be extremely informational while being presented in a logical way. Your eyes need to be focused on the center of your screen and not in the top left corner or any corner for that matter. Therefore, that is where I place the more important UI elements.

Organization and symmetry of UI elements are very important to a quality UI as well. Having the correct balance of these are what I strive for.

The user should have the freedom over the UI elements. It shouldn't be up to the creator where things must be placed or what things must be hidden/shown. There needs to be a level flexibility between the creator and user.

The UI should look and perform at the appropriate level. Certain UI elements shouldn't look too nice. Otherwise, there will be unnecessary distractions or things will stand out too much that shouldn't, but on the other hand things shouldn't look like they are not emphasized enough.
This UI is meant for all classes, roles, and play-styles.
v3.1 is meant for widescreen monitors with an aspect ratio of 8:5 or 16:10. This means that my UI will look its best on 1200x800, 1440x900, 1680x1050, and 1920x1200 monitor resolutions. If your monitor is not one of these resolutions you may need to move some things around. The goal is to eventually have a version suitable for all resolutions.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Installation Guide:
(You must follow theses steps for this UI to look and function the way I have it setup)

Rename or delete your Interface, WTF, and Fonts folders (for a fresh installation or in case you want your old UI back).
Drag or copy the Fonts, Interface, and WTF folders into your World of Warcraft folder.
Open your WTF folder and rename the following folders in your WTF folder "YOUR ACCOUNT NAME", "YOUR SERVER NAME", and "YOUR CHARACTER NAME" to your actual account name, server name, and character name (make sure your account name is in all caps).
Make sure all addons are on. And the load out of date box is checked.
Login to WoW. You should now see the prompt to load Rosoaa UI settings. Select Yes. Your UI will reload.
Go to the video options. Select the resolution and video settings that fits your computer. Also select your preferred sound settings. I suggest taking a look at the addon TweakWoW for addition video/UI settings.
Setup your keybinds/macros. You can skip this setup if you saved your old UI. Go into your old UI's WTF folder and copy and paste your macro-cache files and your bindings-cache files into your new WTF file.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Addons v3.1:
This is not a list of mods contained in the UI (if you're looking for that download the UI and see for yourself), but a more in depth explanation of specific addons that many users probably have never used, so the user can have a better experience.

Many UI tasks are automated or have shortcuts through two addons called wIn1 and !OverSimplified. See their addon pages for a better understanding and configuration. There is a list of UI slash commands below.
Buffet: The addon Buffet creates two macros that can be accessed in the blizzard macro frame (/macro). One is for health consumables and the other is for mana consumables. Buffet will change the macros as needed to provide you with food and drink out of combat, potions and stones in combat, and bandages on shift (HP macro only, of course).
StealYourCarbon: This addon is a reagent restocker addon. When you visit a vendor who sells an item you have told SYC to buy, it buys it for you. Never run out of water again! See the interface options for configuration of your pleasing.
Professions Database / Ludwig: These 2 addons attempt to make minimizing WoW a minimum. Ludwig is an in game database of every item in the game. Type /ludwig to see the huge list. Professions Database gives the user access to every profession, so you always know what craft-able item requires which materials. To access Professions Database go to the professions tab and click on the red panel in the lower right hand corner.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Hey Handin, by any chance are you Handin from uldum? Or were from uldum? ClassTimer should be showing your stuns. ClassTimer looks like your buffs, but it is to the left of your character. It is not a bar, it is just an icon with the time next to it. Maybe you are not seeing it, idk. If you don't see it to the left of your character load profile "Rosoaa" or "default" I am not sure which one it is.

Right click the minimap and . is autorun. Numlock is a dumb keybind for autorun unless you don't use the keypad. Look at all the keybindings if you wanna know what is does what.

The SCT like addon is called Parrot, just type /parrot. To move the quest tracker, right click the minimap and unlock the minimap. Then drag the tracker where you want it.
