Okay... nUI already does part of that via the HUD in that is only shows the auras you have cast on the current target. If you are targeting a hostile mob, then the auras that appear in the bottom center of the HUD are the debuffs you have cast on the mob. If you target a friendly player, then the auras that appear in that spot are the buffs you cast on them.

Likewise, when you target a hostile mob, the auras that appear at the upper right of the HUD, under the mob's name, as the buffs he has on him. If you're targeting a friendly player, then the debuffs that are on that player will appear in the upper right of the HUD directly below his name.

nUI has been using adaptive auras like this for a long time now. In short, auras you have cast on the target, that are to your benefit, always appear at the bottom center of the HUD right below your casting bar where they are easy to watch the timers on, etc. Likewise, auras on the target that are to your detriment appear at the upper right of their health/power bar where they are easy to spot but out of the way.

Tracking what auras you have cast on mobs/players other than the current target is a feature I'm actually working toward and will be available as a plugin to nUI very soon -- which is part of why the aura module was changed in the last couple of updates.

Have you tried using the "Simple HUD" mode of the HUD? That only shows your auras on the target (as described before), your casting bar, range and optional health race (which you can toggle off via slash command)

As for losing the buffs in general... you don't edit the HUD panel. If you have the HUD turned off, then the player/target panel and skins aren't shown at all.

Option 1 is to download the nUI_AuraBars plugin from http://www.wowinterface.com/download....html#optional which will remove the large aura panels from above the dashboard and replace them with tables well to the outside (see the screencap below). Use that together with the "Simple HUD" HUD mode and you'll get exactly what you're getting with Quartz (except that I don't track auras on mobs/players that are not currently targeted yet).

Option 2 is the nuclear strike and actually remove all auras... in which case you need to edit the unit skin files in [ nUI > Units > Skins ] -- which set of files you need to edit depends on which unit panel you use in raids. It should be obvious which skins are which and for which panel. All you have to do is locate the ["Aura"] section and set "enabled = false" for each. However, you will have to re-do that edit every time there is an update.

I'm attaching couple of a screencaps that shows the nUI_AuraBars plugin with the "Simple HUD" HUD with and without the health race bar. Note the aura buttons right dead center below the casting bar... those show what you have on the target -- debuffs on hostiles, buffs on friendlies.

No update tonight because, well... I've been playing ~lol~

Got my hunter to level 80 yesterday (15 days 13 hours played) and got his World Explorer Achievement today and just need the dungeons for his Elders achievement. /yaay

So... anyway... I will have a minor update tomorrow. See you all then.

Great little interface I just downloaded it Friday and love it, but I do have a couple problems.

#1 For some reason when i'm looting a corpse the Loot Window will show up where ever my mouse is, so its in the middle of the screen when I loot the Loot window shows up there.

#2 When in party no one in the Left side window that you have it set for shows up. Just a Black Box where I can select Opacity and thats it. Did the Omen Raid yesterday and joined the Party which turned into Raid Channel and well no one showed up, I had to go and disable the interface to get it to work right.

#3 When people link there Professions/Gear for some reason half of the time when I click it in the chat window the link for the Profession/gear won't show up.

I'll list here what addons I have and you can tell me if you think its a conflict or maybe just something borked up

Auctioneer
Elite Frame *thinking about it I need to disable that anways now I use nUI*
Zygor Alliance Leveling Guide
Cartographer
GatherMate
nUI
Carbonite
Easy Mail
Recipe Radar

I just cleaned it up and we'll test it tomorrow see if I still have the same "Issues" but something for you to look into if you get some time with it.

But again GREAT UI I love it I was previously using Spartan UI and I liked it but I think this is much better. Only been playing for around 3 weeks, got 7days played time maybe 8 and I'm lvl 67 so as you can see I put alot of time into it so I like a great UI.

nUI does not alter the loot window so my guess is that whatever the cause it is something other than nUI. I would suggest you check your WoW settings... press Escape, select "Interface" and then "Controls" -- make sure the "Open Loot Window At Mouse" isn't checked.

#2 When in party no one in the Left side window that you have it set for shows up. Just a Black Box where I can select Opacity and thats it. Did the Omen Raid yesterday and joined the Party which turned into Raid Channel and well no one showed up, I had to go and disable the interface to get it to work right.
I'm guessing, again, that you're talking about a Bliz setting here and not an nUI problem. nUI's party members show up in the dashboard, not in the box on the left which is an artifact of the Bliz UI. Again, press "Escape" and select the "Interface" option, then "Party & Raid" and make sure the "Party Background" option is not checked.

Normally, when you join a party or raid, nUI will automatically switch to the correct unit frame panel in the dashboard. However, it cannot do that if you are in combat at the time. There is a red button at the bottom right corner of the chat frame that normally says "Player" -- click that and it will switch to "Party" -- Click it again and it will switch to "Raid10" -- there are no panels available for 15, 20, 25 or 40 man raids yet, but will be soon.

#3 When people link there Professions/Gear for some reason half of the time when I click it in the chat window the link for the Profession/gear won't show up.
This, again, is not an area where nUI modifies the system. However, unlike the prior two issues, I cannot imagine what the cause of it would be. Perhaps another user may have an idea what's going on there.

spiel2001,

Thanks for your fast reply I'll check those settings when I get home, its a little weird I didn't notice these problems before adding nUI to my addon's but again I was tired this weekend from doing a nice grind/quest session and who knows maybe I borked something up on accident and don't remember it at all.

With the Profession/Gear linking I have no idea to sometimes to get it to open I actually have to click it a couple times to get it to show up and sometimes it just refuses to show up altogether. But thanks again and definately some great work your doing here. Will try to donate some to you this friday its tight for me to was out of work for almsot 3 months and moved from TN to CA so I'm trying to catch up myself. I'll be sure to send something though man.

I'm pretty sure that SpartanUI sets the party background option on as it's almost always previous SpartanUI users who ask me about that problem. Not sure about the option for opening loot window at the mouse though. You're the first person I can recall bringing that one up.

I have noticed issues with clicking links in guild chat -- same with shift-clicking a player name to get info about them -- but those issues have been there as long as I've been playing WoW, so I never give them much thought.

Yes you do have to have both omen 3 and recount installed.

mscott is correct... those plugins integrate Omen3 and Recount into the nUI panels, they don't actually provide them.

Exclamation On the subject of nUI frame rate drops...

Here's a very interesting post from the nUI comment board at Curse.com...

Thanrok said
Monday, January 26, 2009 8:50:36 PM (1 hour, 59 minutes ago) ok i did what you said , i moved my addons folder and my wtf folder to my documents for back up then deleted them from my wow directory, i then reinstalled Nui and from a fresh DL from this site. I then started wow and it seemed fine after 10 mins of play. I then exited wow and added my omen and recount. played for 10 more mins with no probs. I then exited and added Perfect raid , which is what i use for raid frames till you implement yours, and started back up. Everything was fine after 10 mins of play. I then did the same for SCT/SCTD, Bigwigs, DBM, UNTILL i got to Ark inventory. Then the problem came back, i removed ark inventory from loading and retried. played for 10 mins everything was fine. i reenabled it and problem back, so i am assuming , and just assuming that Ark inv. was the problem all along. although i have no idea as to why or if this is even possible i am not able to code myself. Does this make sense?
I'm really curious if any of the other folks having FPS issues also happen to be using ArkInventory?

I use arkinventory, but i have the same frame rate issues with everything installed as i do with the default blizz interface. so i dont know. Though i know i am running with a 4 years old graphics card, that may be my issue, but i have never had any complaints. i deal with it. i just thought it was always my video card. Bit the last few releases of Nui did increase my frame rate by 3-5 frames per second, so im happy. ill test it with out the inventory mod installed and see what happens.

Everything works now once I cleared it out and reset my graphics interface options, then added everything fresh. From there I added WoW instant messenger *WIM* and when i went to alt it didn't like auctioneer which I have disabled on my main but enabled on alt. that is the only problem I have right now all other problems are fixed with your addon's you do some great work and will be looking at your other projects, I haven't started raiding yet as I'm only 68 and still in pretty crappy gear except what outland has brought me through quests. so all my problems are resolved.. thanks again for your great work and support. As I said Friday I will send you something to show some appreciatation not sure how much depends on my check lol I'm strapped also so I know how it feels. Wish i had the time to learn how to do this stuff I think i could do some great addon's but playing is much more fun!!

Haven't had any difference with Ark inv in performance or without it.

The only funny thing I had is that on the ptr my frame rate was about 5 to 10 fps better usually...

Maybe you can whip up an all-in-one bag/bank bag plugin

~shudder~

This is *not* something I'm in a hurry to do. That's a whole can of worms in terms of the features people like and want. Maybe when I start running out of things to do. ~lol~

I had issues with Auctioneer as well, and spent a lot of time trying out other auction house addons. I finally found one that doesn't eat your resources all to hell, and you can leave it on for all of your characters (I've not had it go above 5 megs yet!). AuctionMaster. Give it a try... I think you might like it!
