Combo Points Redux
Combo Points Redux is a numeric and graphical display for your combo points (and other similar mechanic abilities) based on the excellent numeric-only addon BasicComboPoints.
Slash Command
/cpr
or /cpredux
Features
- Numeric and graphical display of your combo points
- Numeric display and graphical display are independently movable
- Many icon choices for the graphical display
- Also tracks many other stacking secondary powers including
- Druids: Combo Points
- Mages: Arcane Charges
- Monks: Chi
- Paladins: Holy Power
- Rogues: Combo Points
- Warlocks: Soul Shards
Width, Height, and Scale
The new version for Legion has been updated to dynamically size the points based on your container size. This was done due to all the talents that change the number of points. Here's how this works.
- Set a Height and Width for the Point container
- Based on the maximum number of points available, the individual points will take up a proportional space
That's great... How do I get back to normal?
Here's an example of how to use the new options:
- You want 20x20 square icons and 5 pixels of spacing between them.
- Your class has six points.
- Set Height to 20 and Width to 150
- 150 = (20 * 6) + (5 * 6)
- You can then set a Scale to make this bigger or smaller too
In general:
- Set the Height to your desired Point height
- Calculate the Width
- Point Width * Max Points + Point Spacing * Max Points
Feedback
Important notice: since v3.2.6, ComboPointsRedux embeds BugGrabber, an error catching addon. Please check the error is really about ComboPointsRedux before reporting them here. I suggest installing BugSack to catch the errors.
Please report any bug or error using the WowAce bug tracker (your Curse account works there). The comments section below is not meant to report and track bugs.
Some words about submitting bug reports:
- I do not care about “it doesn’t work, fix it!” messages. I need to know how it failed and a way to reproduce the bug so I can test it and make sure I fix it.
- Bug reports are not in the “fire and forget” kind of things. I may have to ask you some details.
- Please check all existing tickets and the “known issues” section below before submitting new ones. Duplicate reports will be rejected on sight.
If you want another module for a spell please file them as tickets on WowAce. It makes my life easier!
Localization
Currently the addon will work in all locales, but the options screen is not translated on all clients. If you would like to help translate the options screen you can submit translations with the new localization tool at wowace.
Updated today but it still only supports 4.3?
The last Release was for 4.3, the 5.0.4 support is only Beta right now, check the Other Downloads tab.
Ah thanks!
@Starinnia
holy power now has 5 charges not 3 anymore just a heads up
@Starinnia
cool nice, oh also might wanna consider adding monk to the list I'm pretty sure they have a few abilities that CPR would do good with.. lol just thought of that idea I havn't played a monk alot yet but I'm pretty sure they got something you can track =p
@Alienware209
Yep it will at least get a TOC bump so it will load without that setting. I also plan to review the modules and prune/add as necessary. Just trying to find time between work, grad school and SWTOR raids. :P
Any plans to update to MoP? I sure hope so this is one of my favorite addons that I cannot go without. Btw IT DOES WORK IN MoP .... just have to Load Outdated addons option on, but you know still updating it so I don't have to load outdated addons would be nice too.
Got a couple emails about this over the last few weeks, so I'll make a post.
People had asked if they could make the font any bigger, the current max is 28. Unfortunately that is a client limit imposed by Blizzard. At one point I had allowed up to size 42... but the font stopped growing at 28, so I made my limit match that one imposed by Blizzard.
Sorry!
I was going to ask about that when I read your post. It would be possible to add a scale option for the CPs frame, maybe scaling the frame itself larger would make the text larger too. I don't know if it works and I don't know about coding but I use lots of addons with pretty large font size :)
Thank you very much, I've been using CPR for a long time and I really appreciate it.
Hi.
Please help - error when trying to set a focus when right clicking on persons profile then selecting 'set focus' option.
After this error I cannot set a focus at all.
*This is using the latest version and thank you for this addon. Not sure if you were original designer, Ive been using this for years.

Message: Error: AddOn ComboPointsRedux attempted to call a forbidden function (FocusUnit()) from a tainted execution path.
Debug:
[C]: FocusUnit()

[string "*:OnClick"]:1:
[string "*:OnClick"]:1
This is actually the fault of your unit frame addon. I don't touch that menu or the anything associated with it in CPR. The unit popup menu is rediculously easy to taint. If you want to set a focus, use the /focus command instead of the menu.
Gah - thanks for the reply.
Hi, Starinnia! Pelease fix:
Bone shield now has 6 charges, up from 4. It shows only when 4 and lesser (r244)
BTW Thanks for great addon! =))
I added an option to allow the user to control this behavior. Two modes exist now, STRICT and RELAXED. STRICT mode is the old behavior, only flash at the exact threshold value. RELAXED mode will flash at or above the threshold value.
You can preview this change in the r236 Alpha on WoWAce. Let me know if there are any bugs or other problems.
Release 2.2.0 changes how the positions are saved. When you update all your displays will be around the center of your screen, you will need to reposition them to your liking.
