KaitUI

Version: 2.1.1

by: Kaitain1977 [More]

The only resolution that is supported is 1920x1080. Most other resolutions should still work, but I can't guarantee it. You may have to adjust the layout a bit yourself.

As WeakAuras is part of the UI upload, back up / export your own WAs before installing.

KaitUI is beer-powered. If it runs out of beer, it stops working.

Cheers!

Step 1

Backup your current UI. Do this by opening your WoW folder and moving the Fonts, Interface and WTF folder to a safe place elsewhere on your hard drive. If things go wrong later, put these folders back into your WoW folder and all will be as it was.

Step 2

Unzip the download and move the Fonts, Interface and WTF folder into your WoW folder

Step 3

Inside the WTF folder you will find folders that are name WTF > Account > ACCOUNTNAME > SavedVariables. Rename the folder called ACCOUNTNAME to be whatever your account name is. If you are unsure what to name it, check the folders that you backed up in Step 1.

Step 3.5

Go to https://www.tukui.org/download.php?ui=elvui and download ElvUI. Once you've unzipped the download, put the two folders into your Interface>Addons folder.

Step 4

Start WoW. On the character selection screen, click the Addons button in the bottom left, then in the top right of the panel that pops up

Make sure that Load out of date AddOns is checked.

Make sure ALL addons in the list are enabled

Step 5

Once you are in the game, ElvUI will be propting you with instalation stuff.

Click SKIP PROCESS

Step 6

Once Elv has reloadui your UI, you might need to use the Raid Frame Menu (second from right of the footer buttons) to change raid frames to one of the presets

Also -
I just found a small issue with the buffs - If when targeting yourself the buff and debuffs top left and top right aren't symmetrical, go to ElvUI (/elvui) > Buffs & Debuffs, and disable. It will ask you to reloadui.

When using KaitUI, you can safely update these addons:

ElvUI
Raven
WeakAuras2
Plexus
DynamicCam
MoveAnything

+ any others that you add yourself

But do NOT try to update these:

kgPanels
Plexus Layouts
SharedMedia
KaitMedia

NOTES

- Open WeakAuras with /wa for now (not the menu).
Opening WeakAuras config with the menu first causes it to appear with items missing from the aura list. Collapse/uncollapse something in the list and it will immediately fix it. After the config has been opening once it should be fine all subsequent times.

- there are some hidden bars (including bar1) to the right of the main action bar. These are bars for keybinds. The main visible bar is for showing cooldowns. The assumption is that you know what your keybinds are.

- the pet bar and class power bars kind of ruin the elegance of the player frame area. I personally will be using weakauras to show them in a more contextual way, but I thought I'd leave the Elv versions visible as default in case anyone got confused.

- The 3D model of you character on the Spec/Talents screen is positioned as if your character is a female night elf. For some other races, specifically small races, your player model might be way off. I'll make a tutorial on how to fix that soon, but basically you have to exlude your race from loading on the main KaitUI Talents > Player aura, duplicate it and make the new aura only load for your race, then adjust the XYZ display values. Don't use the slider's though, edit the texts, because you have to do it blind. When in WA config, it's not showing you the model right.

Suggested additional addons:

Opie is a wonderfully elegant solution for using things like potions, crafting, etc. I notice a lot of games bind icon wheel interfaces to the C key (like Overwatch), so if you do that with OPie it feels very natural.

Clique Do more with your mouse when healing. Not really necessary if you never heal.

2.1.1 Removed ElvUI files (needs to be downloaded from ElvUI site, because ElvUI).

2.1 Updated for Shadowlands

1.2 - Added a new action Bar below the main bar (this was often requested). Changed the layout so that quest tracking is not back on the right, DPSer raid frames on the left. This was so I could remove the code making the minimap hiding and raid frames interact. My code was buggy and crap, and now it's gone. Hurray! UIscaler addon removed because it seemed to not be working anymore.

1.1 - Updated for patch 6.1. Some addons updated, some TOCs updated, some WeakAuras changes and updates

1.0.2 - Changed scripts in KaitMedia addon and in kgPanels that relate to Grid so that (hopefully) nothing freaks out too badly if you don't have Grid installed (i.e. if you want to use a different raid addon). The popup panels for changing Grid profiles won't do anything for you without Grid, but at least they aren't going to cause errors. Uou need Grid enabled to run /kaitinstall. Install the profiles then switch your raid addon afterwards.

1.0.1 - Updated KaitMedia script to fix a non-English client bug. Updated some kgPanels scripts to fix a non-English client bug. Added Clampy's focus bar WeakAura for hunters. Stopped Party Frames (P) button from causing error when not in a group.

1.0 - Updated some kgPanels scripts. Added some new WeakAuras bars for moonkin and demon warlock. Added some graphics to the KaitMedia folders. Changed the KaitInstaller script. Removed Opie, Bindpad and Dominos, and added Bartender4.

0.7.1 - Updated some kgPanels scripts to cause less lua errors

The minimap/Grid thing I think you need to just click the hide minimap button (twice if once doesn't work). I tried to get a system in where the minimap hiding can save room for the raid frames, but I think it doesn't take into account a situation where you hide the minimap, then zone into a raid group. I'll have a think on how to fix it robustly, but for now let me know if clicking the minimpa hide button ( the right hand button to the right of the action bar) works.

The thing about the main dominos bar I have no clue. It doesn't do that for me. Did you change which bar is the main action bar? (it was deliberatelly bar 8 or 9 or 10 or something, not 1 or 2). I'll look in the scripts tonight and see if I left something in that should be out.

Nallebjoern A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 9 Uploads: 0	Hey! I've always liked that new UI of yours, so I decided to try it out as soon as I got the chance. However this is what I got. Things that might be wrong; 1. I'm not really sure what that thing in the middle is. 2. The bagskins look very dark, not really shaded as the character pane. Intended? 3. Samething for the loot frame tbh. 4. Not sure what the 'P' button does, in my UI it does nothing ^^ Might be something group/raid related though, havent tried it in a party yet. Other than that, great ui!

Hey Kait, loving the interface!

To me everything seems to be working quite nicely, though I haven't really tested it out that much as of yet.
I have one thing about Dominos though. When I'm setting up my bars, I cannot for the life of me seem to get into the actual configs of the bars (the right click config) because I need to set Bar 1 to action bar paging, when I change stances on my monk the bar doesn't change, so I wanted to set Bar 1 to Page to Bar 2 when I change stance.

But going into /dom config, right clicking the bar gives me no menus, not sure what's causing it.

1 more thing is that opening the talent frame throws an error.

Code:

Yes there are sometimes a couple of lua errors from bringing up the talent frame (I think because I ask it to hide other panels to avoid layering issues, but if the other panels haven't been opened yet then it gives an error). I'm not a good enough coder to prevent it, so if someone can tell me how then great otherwise it might just be a case of live with it. It won't effect performance anyways because they are kind of one off errors. @Vaey Dominos: there was a legacy script hiding action bars 1-4. I've removed it. My bad, sorry. Version 0.7.1 should fix it once the file goes online. @Vaey Nallebjoern: 1) that's Opie addon. Try to configure it, failing that switch it off. 2) yes the bags are too dark. I personally use Bagnon for bags and bank but I removed it from the upload because it seemed like unnecessary extra stuff. One the release of this is final maybe you can grab a bag addon to make it better. 3) same 4) P button shows and hides party frames (mainly so that healers can hide them when using Grid for 5 man stuff.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Oh I see, well the talent frame error is to no bother, just thought I'd let you know in case you weren't aware of it. As it is labeled Beta, I just wanted to give feedback for possible bugs

I edit quite a bit of my own custom UI's, so I know a tiny bit about configurating them, but I have not encountered that with Dominos before, so I had to ask :P

Joking aside... I spend a lot of time making UIs for WoW. If I can get even a tiny amount of money for it then it would help make doing it easier to justify. I realise that nobody really wants to pay for something that's available free elsewhere, and that's fine. It's just a thought.
