World of WarCraft: AddOns
World of WarCraft supports user interface customizations through a programming language called Lua. I write computer programs for a living, so it was only a matter of time before I started learning how the interface for World of WarCraft works and began to write my own.
On this page, I will provide links to the tools I have either written or customized, plus links to the original author's site where appropriate.
| Notes | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| CQCure | June 9, 2005 | v1.5.0 | This is a hack of the original version of CQCure. I have removed its original dependency on Sea, an out-of-date function library. I also fixed a bug that caused error messages when you played a character without curing capabilities, and added support for curing pets within your group. Note: I encourage people to switch to Decursive, which is a superior replacement for this mod. I will leave this code here for educational purposes. |
| Da Bomb | March 30, 2006 | v1.10.x | Using Trinket Menu as a guide, I have written a mod that displays a two-button window on your user interface, showing the cheapest (to make) bomb in your inventory, and the biggest bomb in your inventory. Keybinds are supported as well. The idea of this mod is to make it easier to throw the right type of bomb in a given situation; don't waste a Mithril Frag Bomb when you only need a cheap bomb to stun one player! Type /bomb for more usage information. |
| Tekkub's Defense Tracker | May 26, 2005 | v1.4.x | This is a bugfix for the original working code. Download the original version from curse-gaming.com and install it normally, then download my zip file to get the fix. Basically, it corrects an annoying error message that occurs within any instance. I have sent the fix to the author, who will be incorporating this information into the next official release of this AddOn. Note: DefenseTracker does work with version 1.10.x of the game. |
| PotionBar | March 30, 2006 | v1.10.x | Based on the Trinket Menu code base, PotionBar displays your strongest available healing potion and mana potion (rage potion for warriors, thistle tea for rogues) as a pair of buttons. Hover over the buttons with your mouse to reveal a popup window displaying all other types of potions you have available in your inventory (including special items like a healthstone or whipper root tubers). Click on any potion to drink it, or bind a key for the two main buttons. I wrote this to reduce the need to bind special keys/UI buttons for every type of potion I might carry. Type /potion or /pot for more usage information. |
| Trinket Menu | December 15, 2005 | v1.8.x | This mod is now obsolete because the newer version from the author is superior and fixes all the bugs that I originally patched. I will leave this download here for educational purposes. |
| WhisperCast | June 9, 2005 | v1.5.0 | This is just to make sure I don't lose the older version of WhisperCast that I prefer to the newer ones. The only change I've made to the "official" version is to update the version number. The official version is available here. |
