Mania,
Could you start an new forum.. Enabling Hunter's to list what addons they currently use?
I've noticed some addon graphics in some of the submitted pictures that I've never seen before..
Maybe in the forum the Hunter's could give how they like or dislike the aforementioned addons.. Where they got them.. How easy were they installed and what advantages each said addon gave to them...
Thank you

RANDOM OLD POST WITH NO REPLIES! I NOW CALL UPON YOU TO BE REBORN!!!!!


addons: Silverdragon, NPCSCAN, NPCOVERLAY, for pet finding/rare finding

UI: Spartan UI - I like it - took awhile to learn the ropes on it, but I can customize my action bars anywhere.

Sexymap - makes map sexy with blue and circles and moving and fun!

Um I have another addon that makes the bar shiney below as well - i'll come back to name it later -

Not all of my addons are active for all my characters, but I use a lot of them. I also have a variety of addons I made myself that don't show up in this list.

Wow, I use recount and that's about it....

thats crazyness saturo. could you sometime post a screenie with all of them in their glory?

I like seeing screenshots of other player's UI's. I'll post mine sometime when I get home from work

Not all of them active, but it looks mostly the same.

Saturo, that is the most terrifying and confusing screenshot I've ever seen.


Kudos to you for being able to deal with that much information at once!

I use:

Power Auras Classic
Recount
Omen
Chinchilla MiniMap
Minimapbuttonframe
Deadly Boss Mods
Grid
Gridmanabars
_NPCScan
_NPCScanOverlay
OmniCC

I'm planning to add...
- Some unit frames and buff frames, the current ones are beginning to slightly bother me
- A more-macros addon if they exist, I dual specced this morning and ran out of macro space
- Possibly a minimalist cooldown timer, so I can hide some of my keybound bars and save screen space

I use:

Altoholic
Atlas
Atlasloot Enhanced
ESN Rare
_NPCScan
Titan Panel
Where To Now

Nothing too fancy-smancy here, just the basics.

Be ready for the terrifying addon list of doom...

!!!ZOOM!!! - makes the loading screen go by a little faster by doing something I can't remember
AchScreenshotter
Addon Control Panel
Auctionator - a lot simplier than Auctioneer
BlizzMove - allows me to move the various windows around as I wish
ButtonFacade
Chinchilla Minimap - I like my minimap square and with as few buttons as possible
Clique - allows me to make some nice mouseover click macros. For some reason the normal macros can't cast on mouseover if the macro is assigned for a mouse button, so Clique takes care of that.
Deadly Boss Mods
Dominos
eAlign - helps me align my UI just right
EveryQuest - to help me find the few quests I'm still missing in Azeroth
GearScore - while I find the thing misleading and overrated, I like being able to see right away what kind of people I might be dealing with.
Grid
HandyNotes - allows some addons to make helpful notes on my map
HighUI - takes the graphics even further than WoW's own settings allow. Also makes it a lot easier to manage the level of my graphics without going into the display menu
InlineAura - displays aura information inside action buttons
Mapster - gives me some control over the size and placement of the World Map
Moncai Quest Tracker - some tweaks to the Quest Tracker
OmniCC - shows all the cooldowns in numbers over the skills
OneBag3
Overachiever
PetEmote
Postal - makes opening and sending mail a lot easier
Power Auras - mostly I use this only on my mage to see when my free Frostfire or Pyroblast proc etc
Prat
Quartz - better casting bars
Reddrake - informs me if I'm missing any Glory of the Hero achievements in the instance I'm in
Shadowed Unit Frames - my favourite UF addon by far, SUF is both simple and versatile
SilverDragon
SimpleBuffBars
Simple Treat Meter - replaced Omen with this, shows me the amount of aggro I have on my current target. Is just a black bar filling up, which makes this much easier to find room for.
Skada - replaced Recount
SmartMount - all my mounts and falling speed reductions brought to a single keybind <3
SpamMeNot - saves me from all the gold spammers
Spy - lists all enemy players nearby. I play mostly on a PVP server, so it comes handy.
TipTac - prettifies my tooltips
Tooltip Wrangler - controls the position of my tooltips
UpRank - makes sure all my skills at their highest ranks
VendorReward - adds a handy Vendor button the quest turn-in window that automatically picks the most expensive reward.
ViperNotify - lets me know if I've forgotten to switch out of AotV
XLoot - some nice tweaks to the loot window

Might upload a SS to show what goes where later. My UI really isn't as cluttered as the above list might suggest - most of them are just to achieve the clear look I'm after.



It's missing some stuff, like DBM but.. Meh. :P You get the idea. I keep the lower right corner empty, as that's where all the MSN and Skype info pops up.

Why thank you, I DO try my best...

I'm still unsure of how exactly I do it. Imagine that thing with raidframes, healbot and a number of aggro-watching addons. That's a healer or a tank for me. xD

I use MLK scrolling battle text too. thats a fun one.

Theres a Viper notify that scrolls when I have Aspect of Viper on with full mana.

Seriously, why do you people use Photobucket? Half the time the pictures don't even show up. The other times I just get half of them. -.-

*uses the hosting this forums provides, seeing as she doesn't know how to work Photobucket. *

Addons used are very simple for me. I have a lot more, but I don't know what most of them do, so I avoid them.

NPCscan
NPCscan Overlay
Flag RSP
Marysue
Recount
Omen
DBM
Badkitty (For Azu druidy stuff.)
Xperl

Ooh! A mac! Neat!
That addon seems a bit useful, I might download it for my HC farming... No real use for it in raids, Replenishment should do plenty, and if that isn't available, then you should still have enough mana to finish the fight and only have to stay in viper for half the fight. :P
A nice addon nonetheless.

I forgot to include Mik's Scrolling Battle Text (MSBT) - my battle text of choice at the moment.

Yay for Macs! Yeah I realized afterwards it was in window'd mode. Its so easy with macs though just hitting the Apple-M button will maximize / minimize it. I love that feature because I flip to wowhead very frequently

I forgot what the name of the addon is though on the bottom there that the bars fit nicely into.

Isn't that Spartan UI?

Yeah its spartan UI, for some reason I thought I had another addon in there. maybe not.

Whats nice if you look at it, I have one box on the left for the traps, and a box on the right for the aspects. Spartan rocks because you can literally put a action bar anywhere, very easy to Keybind things to - and you can make the bar have however many buttons in either a square, line, or rectangle however you want to shape it

Also to those wondering about the Simple Threat Meter, here's a SS of it in action - it's the black column next to my portrait. This one also shows OmniCC in action. The map is still Sexymap here, later I found it way too buggy and switched to Chinchilla. <3
