List of AddOns

  • All in one Inventory Replaces your bags with one big inventory screen.
  • Atlas View annotated maps in game for many instances.
  • Auctioneer Allows your lootlink database to record auction prices.
  • AutoBar Autoloads Food/Water/Potions onto a hotbar
  • Bibmod Allows you to move and scale every part of your UI. I have the bag mod removed as it conflicts with All in one inventory.
  • BuffTimers little timers under the buffs
  • Clock Slightly improved version of Telo's popular clock
  • CombatStats This combat parser will record your crit rate and damage with skills. The dps it shows is pretty flawed so I don't use it for DPS calculation.
  • Cooldown Count This mod puts a timer over an ability to show its cooldown at a glance.
  • CQOnyxia This mod can warn you and your raid when Onyxia uses her deep breath.
  • CT_RaidAssist This is the best raid bar mod out there. Tons of great features and next patch it should not even require a chat channel.
  • DamageMeters I'm not sure I'll keep this mod but it can be neat to see who is dealing the most damage, taking the most damage, healing the most, etc.
  • DamageWatch Very accurate and excellent DPS Calculator.
  • Decursive Debuff Cleansing mod that works with party and raids. /decursive in a macro to use.
  • Divine Blessing Currently disabled due to dependencies, looking for a mod that does what this does (buffing party memebers with blessings) just as well as this did.
  • Dynamic Data Function Library needed by other mods.
  • Fetch Function Library for getting a characters name.
  • ForumName Put someones public note after their name in chat
  • Gatherer Records Herbs/Minerals/Treasure Boxes in a database that can then display them on your minimap. This makes it easier to find these objects and to plan routes to gather them.
  • goodinspect Inspect at range, also lets you inspect the other faction and see the players guild rank.
  • GuildOrganizer Better guild window that lets you sort by note and more. I'm not positive I want to keep this mod, add your suggestions to discussion.
  • HitsMode Cleaner looking combat log
  • LootLink Searchable Item Database
  • MapCoords See the x,y coords on the big map
  • MapNotes Add map notes
  • MiniGroup Display a smaller cleaner player/party/target frames.
  • MountThingy Auto-dismount when getting on a gryphon
  • PvPLog Log all PvP wins and losses, options to notify and play sounds as well.
  • QuestFast Speeds up quest text.
  • QuickLoot Move the lootbox to your cursor
  • RedOut Make out of range spells shaded red
  • Sea Function Library required for some mods
  • SelfCast Autocast friendly spells on yourself - Made modifications for Blessing of Sanctuary and Detect Magic
  • SimpleMail Autosubject and last sender name in mail (Not sure it does anything with blizzards changes).
  • TalentThingy See talents at levels lower than 10
  • TooltipsBase,TooltipsColorTarget,TooltipsEliteTarget,TooltipsGuildTarget,TooltipsLevelTarget,TooltipsPlayerTarget,TooltipsPVPTarget Recolors and adds more tooltip info
  • TradeSkillFrame Shows you how many tradeskill items you can make if you purchase vendor reagents and use items in bank (not currently installed, need to redownload)
  • Wr WoWReader for allakhazam profiles

Setting it up

This image is what you will see when you first install my UI.

You drag things by clicking the green boxes on them. You can resize them by clicking the Grey Boxes in the bottom right corner of each ui element. For hotkeybars you can rotate them with the arrows till you get a hotkey setup you like. The box in the bottom right with 9 dots on it is for your tooltip. Drag it where you like to see the tooltip (I use top center) and the dot is where the tooltip originates from that box. There is also the bibmod control bar. It lets you lock things in place like the buffs, tooltips, hotkey bars and hide some ui elements like bags and the control bar. You can lock buttons in your hotkey bars and hide boxes that have no hotkeys in them. The buffs have a draggable/resizable box. You can move buffs around or change the size (changing the size might mess some stuff up with buff timers). In the top left you have the Minigroup player frame, target something to see the target frame and join a party to see that frame as well. You can drag these wherever you like to have them. Also you have the CombatStats mod, I like to put it somewhere out of the way so I can click on it when I want to, but don't need to click it. You will have a HitsMode window created with your chat boxes I drag it to the side and use it in place of the combat log. Top center has your clock, you can drag it wherever you want then lock it with a /clock freeze. The autobar is in the center of the screen. You can set it up with /autobar. I dock mine to the bottom of my chatbox. When you need it you can find RaidAssist settings in a new tab in your social window.

Here is a list of usefull slash commands.

  • /cct This enables the cooldown count numbers.
  • /aioi List all in one inventory commands. I like to use /aioi replacebags
  • /atlas Bring up the in game atlas.
  • /pvplog PvP Log options. I turn off all the notifications and sounds myself.
  • /minigroup You can also access this menu from the MG button on the minimap. I join my party and player frames, use some different scaling, use debuff colors with all curable debuffs being red and make the background pretty much transparent. Also I have 5/5 party buff/debuffs on and for target I use 10/10 buffs/debuffs.
  • /quicknote Add a quick map note at your location
  • /hitsmode Set up colors and text settings for your hitsmode combat window.
  • /autobar Set up your autoloading bar. /autobar config gives you most all the options you need.
  • /clock /clock +/- # to set time offset. Also /clock english or /clock metric for units.
  • /lootlink (or /ll) You can scan the AH while you are there with /ll scan. You need to use /ll scan to get auctioneer to work. Try to do a scan every day. You can also bind a key to see your lootlink window.
  • /redout Set the redout color and turn it on/off.
  • /selfcast This can turn on/off auto selfcast and alt selfcast.
  • /decursive Put this in a macro to use to autocast your classes cure spells on people with negative effects you can cure.
  • /gatherer A ton of options here, tell it what to show, how many objects to display, at what range. If it is annoying you can tell it to not show you anything but it will still record things you gather.

Lots of keys to bind as well. You can bind hotkeys for all your bib toolbars, for various autobar functions, lootlink, etc. Take a look you should find a wealth of hotkeys if you choose to use them in there.
