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 When installing for the first time, make sure you select "Load out of date Addons".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

-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.

-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

I've never seen an issue like this, so I'm unsure how to proceed. I'm not sure why using your config file would prevent the game from loading, or why using mine would cause all the UI mods to break.

Thanks for your help
Weird. It's possible that Blizzard changed something. I'll do some testing in a bit. I recently installed the UI on a separate PC and had no issues at all, so I'll do this again and see what's up.
Thank you very much!
Tested again and everything loaded for me on an alternate PC, with and without the config file present. I'm uploading the latest version of the UI now, let me know how it goes. As long as you follow the directions below, I can't see why it wouldn't, unless there is some weird incompatibility with certain types of hardware, but that seems strange and unlikely.
When you edit the folder text for your Account name, Server name and Character name does it matter if all are in caps, or have spaces? My server is Area 52, would I type it as such, or with no spaces?
Just the account name in caps, and as far as I know, I don't even think that's a thing any longer. As far as spaces go for sever names, keep the spaces, as is, no underscores.

I have the exact same problem and can't find a solution.

To change the loading distance of nameplates you navigate to Interface > Addons > Advanced Interface Options > Nameplates - from there, you can fully customize nameplate distance.

Currently the highlight color for the mob you have targeted is white (so maybe it's hard to spot); however, you can easily customize this /tidyplates > damage profile. Hopefully that helps!

First of all, huge thanks for using the UI and also supporting it with such kind words. I genuinely appreciate people giving their thoughts and feedback.

Now, to get to the Tooltip issue. Good and bad news. I know that it's caused by the addon Auctionator, but have no idea how to fix it. I've tried several things, but sadly I don't have the time to commit to really digging for info in how to get it resolved. I've been looking for an Auctionator replacement, but I'm not 100% pleased with the other options available. As always, I'm very open to suggestions.

In the meantime, I just play with Auctionator disabled until I need to use it's functionalities. I hope to get this annoying aesthetic bugged fixed soon.

Another user has this same issue, but I'm not able to recreate it on my end.

Can you give me a few details and a screenshot of your UI?

What are you using to adjust the volume? Blizzard's System Menu > Sound - Or, are you adjusting it with the speaker icon in the bottom right corner of the UI? Either way, details will help get this fixed.
Thanks for getting back to me, so funny enough i was using Blizzard's System Menu > Sound. I messed with the speaker icon in the bottom corner and it seemed to fix the problem. I honestly didn't even notice it there. Thanks for mentioning that!!
Nice, nice. Yeah, I’m always adjusting the volume so I find the icon a quicker way than having to go into the system menus. In case others are having this issue and don’t want to use the icon you can access Titan Panel - Volume Control - and uncheck Override Blizzard Volume Settings.

Thanks again for supporting the UI!
