SixUI  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 10.2.5
by: Sixthly [More]

SixUI
SixUI's goal is to provide a clean and consistent design for Blizzard's frames and all of its supported AddOns. It uses pixel-perfect borders at all UI scales and screen sizes. The default layout focuses on healing with an MMO mouse, with the main focal point during raid combat being the lower central area of the screen and featuring action bars resembling a Razer Naga. Less important information like Chat, Minimap, and Skada is placed in the upper outside area of the screen to reduce distraction and maximize the visibility of the raid environment.
Features
- Easy to install and update.
- Edit Mode compatibility.
- Layouts for damage and healing roles.
- LibDataBroker compatibility with many included plugins.
- Pixel perfect, customizable borders.
- Skinned Blizzard action bars, auras, chat frame, and minimap.
- Skinning support for many third-party AddOns.
- Some basic quality of life automations.
Instructions
- Install SixUI, all recommended AddOns, and any suggested AddOns using your preferred AddOn manager.
- Log in to your character.
- Click Reload UI to finish setting up SixUI.

Hi Sixthly,

just came to say I love your UI. I never expected an UI like yours with such an easy setup! Took me 2 minutes to setup Vuhdo with my hots and I was ready to go. It's awesome for a healer and is also fun on my dps twinks. Thank you so much for your hard work. I really hope you will keep it up when it comes to BFA!

Greetings from Germany!

There aren't any short term plans to make this customisable. However, when the displays are compatible with LibDataBroker, and the UI has an interface options panel, I plan to have an option where you can select which LibDataBroker plugin is attached to each display.

As far as I'm aware there's nothing in the UI to replace SexyCooldowns2 at this time.
It was actually a part of Dominos - a cast bar in there that I disabled (it automatically comes enabled).

In regards to Bazooka, you might have noticed I've changed the layout of the displays. The Friends and Guild displays are now icons under the Minimap, and everything under the chat box is spaced out. After doing this, I quickly discovered Bazooka is only activating tooltips when the mouse cursor is directly over the icon and/or text, and not for the full width of the segment. It was creating a bad user experience, and so I decided to create a custom implementation which doesn't yet support LibDataBroker.

In regards to SexyCooldown2, I've actually had to have this AddOn disabled for most of the expansion because it was creating bizarre graphical issues. If it receives a proper update for Battle for Azeroth then I'll happily adopt it again, but for the meantime it appears to be mostly abandoned by its author.
Ahhh. So I'm seeing you built in your own replacement to sexycooldowns. It's missing a feature that I loved from SC2 - the ability to see how long an extensive profession job was going to take. I also didn't see an option in the /sixui options to disable it for the time being? So I guess I go without SC2 for now.

Huh. I've had no issues anything like that. I was able to login briefly, and I can see that using Bazooka doesn't take away from your design(at least for me!), so I'll continue to use that for other random LDB items I feel like I need. It looks good though, from what I was able to see. The switch to dominos from bartender was seamless, so A+ there. I should have more time to properly play in an hour or so, and on my main at that, so I'll take pictures from like, old Panda raids (gogo mount farming!).

You do good work, sir. I thank you for all of your efforts.

If you enjoy SixUI and are using a 1920x1080 display, then I would appreciate some screenshots for the image gallery! Please let me know if you have any questions or feedback.

Help, please?

I've done something to screw up my SixUI on my main, and it's driving me nuts because I don't know precisely what I did. It's actually two things now, because in my attempt to 'fix', I made it worse.

The first is that EVERYONE, regardless of PVP status or faction is now showing up with combat bars over their head. I very much want to turn this off because it's annoying and will no doubt lead to me mis-targeting.

The second is that my SixUI profile for SUF seems to have gone by the wayside. Now nothing is sitting right in its frames.

Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.

The guild bank will be used by default, and if it's unavailable, then personal gold will be used. You can disable auto repair by typing "/sixui toggle repair". Type "/sixui mods" to see other modules you can turn off.

Is there a way to turn off auto-guild-repair, while keeping auto-personal-repair ?
Thanks!

I upgraded to the newest release and there is still a taint when I click on anything in my spellbook or try to queue for a battleground.

SixUI has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI.

It doesn't happen when I unload SixUI addon; and it does happen when "only" SixUI is loaded and all other supplemental addons are disabled.

Yes this would be the best option.
