PoorDoggy 04-22-2008, 10:41 PM I'm revamping my UI and I can't remember (or seem to find) this mod. It would basically flash big text in the middle of your screen as cooldowns expired, so you would see "Blink Ready!", "Ice Block Ready!", "Trinket Ready!" etc. I found a cooldown countdown timer thing but I can't figure out how to make it announce the cooldown expiration so I don't forget to use shit when it's ready.
GeneralHell 04-22-2008, 11:05 PM OmniCC makes the button have a timer on top of it then noticeably pulses the button so you can see when it's ready. It's nice and minimizes the clutter on/around my toon.
Ddrakon 04-22-2008, 11:18 PM MSBT (Mik's Scrolling Battle Text) has such an option.
RunningWolf 04-23-2008, 12:01 AM I use cooldown bars and JIM for the flashing icon
DeadlyRabbit 04-23-2008, 12:59 AM I use cooldowntimers2, ace2 addon you can adjust the position and size of the pulse message.
CooldownTimers2 - WowAce Wiki (http://www.wowace.com/wiki/CooldownTimers2)
This is a screen shot of it as it fades out with the consecrate image and text, you can adjust how long it takes to fade out, it could be scaled up to cover the whole screen, the text is adjust with a separate setting.

TonyElTigre 04-23-2008, 02:32 AM wtf your ui is an abomination
DeadlyRabbit 04-23-2008, 09:59 AM Ya it is, I adjusted a couple of things after 2.4, and I have adjusted a bunch more since this screen shot was taken.

PoorDoggy 04-23-2008, 03:41 PM Thanks, the Ace CooldownTimers (could the name have been more obvious?) was what I was thinking of.

holy shit if I had to deal with that much shit on my screen I'd go insane
DeadlyRabbit 04-23-2008, 05:30 PM I think if I played a classes that didn't have to buff mid fight, had no heals, no ability to cleanse, I wasn't a tank, didn't have to check to see that everyone in the entire raid had all their buffs from all the other paladins and if I wasn't calling out boss abilities and cool downs on vent I could simplify things a lot.
If I played a rogue I would probably reduce my hud down to a dps meter taking up one side of the screen and 1 action bar, with a threat meter half the size of the mini map... under the dps meter.

:lol: Yeah my warlock UI does not have much in the way of raid status... I have to redo it for my pally tho and I'm not looking forward to adding things.
I know CooldownCount is not what was being asked for, but IMO it is the best cooldown mod - just displays the timeleft on your button.
DeadlyRabbit 04-23-2008, 06:23 PM Ya I have that addon also, basically because the buttons didn't have enough animation to match the rest of my seizure inducing UI.

... they had spread into millions of computer servers across the planet.
Ordinary computers in office buildings, dorm rooms, everywhere.
It was software in cyberspace.
There was no system core. It could not be shut down.
Judgment Day.
TonyElTigre 04-23-2008, 07:22 PM i just dont know why you would have a combat alert telling you your cooldowns and jim's pulse at the same time overlapping itself

Cooldowntimers2 has the text, I think I adjusted that since the screen shot was taken.

This isn't DR posting this is the combined consciousness of his addons... YOU ARE NOT PREPARED.
Holy shit I am a huge fucking nerd.
