Best UI Addon?

Unread post by Dna »

I hate the defualt WoW actionbars. I was just wondering if any of you knew any good Ui addons for 4.06, (I don't like tukui very much) if so could you please post them here.
A link or screenshot of the product would be awesome. Also, a download link would be appreciated.
Thank You

Not sure about UI specifically- but I like using Bartender4 for my action bars. Very customizable!

I'm a recent convert to Dominos. Interface changes always intimidated me since I was hesitant to grow dependent on an addon that might cause issues if it were to go outdated or break in a patch. Once I got the hang of it though I found it to be remarkably easy to setup, very customizable, and without an overwhelming amount of features. I'd recommend it for sure!

Yeah. It includes Bartender, Forte, Recount, Omen, oUF, and a bunch of other stuff. Plus a REALLY easy install, just click the giant INSTALL-button when you log in for the first time! ;D

My wife and I have been using Spartan UI for a long time and really like it. The original author disappeared, but there is a fan update version on wow-interface that works very well.

@TygerDarkstorm - the original works fine too for some, but there were issues with it towards the end of WotLK with lua errors and lfg queue windows and a few other things, the new version got rid of all that =)

There's two UIs I absolutely love.

-Supervillain UI is one I've used for the longest time: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/i ... .html#info
It updates frequently and sometimes has bugs, but it's still being perfected so that's to be expected. So far, it's a very fun UI to use. :)
To install you need to replace (delete) your interface and font folders. If the UI's not to your liking, just delete both folders again and launch WoW. That will remake the default blizzard font/interface folders right then and there.

-Elv UI is one I just started using but already love: http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/i ... .html#info
I'll say it looks much better with a wide screen monitor but, like Supervillain, the customization is easy to understand and it has both DPS/tank and healer layouts.
You install this one like many other addons. Just place it right into your World of Warcraft > Interface > Addons folder and make sure they're enabled on the character screen when you log into the game.

Only problem I have is that I cant for the life of me figure out how to Display my Hunter Aspects.... Saturo would you please help me? :)

Type /bartender and check if the stance bar is inactive or hidden.

Wow, that LUI is awesome looking. I think I may have to try that out. Does it take a long time to customize?

It sets up with automatic settings in less than ten seconds. You can then customize it like any other UI, in Bartender, Omen, Recount and that stuff.
