Cryolysis
*Notice*
Due to changes implemented in the 1.12->2.0 patch, the Mana Gem button is incapable of working as it used to. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible for the button to conjure the highest Mana Gem that isn't in your inventory, nor will it ever be possible again (unless Blizzard gives us a new way to do things). We are aware of, and apologize for, the inconvenience that this causes. We ask for your patience regarding this matter. Thank you.

And thanks, Aethra :)
I've had a lock that I've been playing on the side for several months. After doing a bit of research, I came across Necrosis and started using it. I really did love it -especially how many hotkeys it freed up!
My main is a mage, however. I'd looked high and low for a Necrosis version for mages to no avail. Finally, someone pointed me in the direction of Arcanum.
I started using Arcanum and loved it. Granted it wasn't quite Necrosis. Having everything in one place was so convenient.
However...I was frustrated that I couldn't break the buttons off and drag them around like I could with Necrosis. I also missed having the timer functions. I disliked having to use SheepWatch and NovaWatch (while they're great mods in their own right...why should I have to use multiple mods when one could do it all?) when the original mod had timers built in.
That's when I came across a link to Cryolosis.
It had EVERYTHING I was looking for. It had an evocation button (and zomg! I could make the sphere into Evocation thereby freeing up another hotkey AND giving that big orb some actual USE!)...it had small unobtrusive timers...it was very customizable, letting me drag my buttons all over the place like I could with Necrosis. I also really liked having the separate menus for everything - and not having so many buttons.
Finally - I like that the creator of Cryolosis is trying to stay true to the original mod that worked so very well.
dont know whether its my german client, but theirs still the button for magic amor missing. the crappy iceamor does no one use except lvl 20 mages^^
when will it implemented?

@Darklyte64: Thank you so much for the special version! :) I'm so sorry if you feel that I'm a pain in the *, because sometimes I really feel like one :( I bet it isn't easy to keep track of everything.
About the two extra buttons around evocation. That sounds like a nice function :)
it is not correct
CRYOLYSIS_FOOD_RANK = {
[5] = "s Sauerteig",
@Wolfang: When you learn new spells, it pushes the SpellId for all your other spells down. just relog or /console reloadui. Liadora and I are working on a fix for that.
@Adriella: Sorry, I wasn't sure what the original color was :( I'll change that for the next version for you (and upload a special one so you can have it soon)
As for the having spells always visible, I intend to add two extra buttons around evocation. Both of these buttons will let you set them to whatever you want them to cast, just so that spell will be easily available. For now, thought, you could macro /script Cryolysis_Decursive();
@HOPE: I'm going to put manashield and ice barrier on the buff menu. I have no idea how to do shield counters, but I'll look through the ct_shield thingy to try to figure it out
Now this is a mage addon for real! First of all thanks this is the best yet I've used, really! ;)
1st. Reuqest: Manashield... We know this, its working cool in other addon, lets put this in since its a full mage package right? 2nd BIG request: I never saw a ward counter yet... Please if you could do it, just add a function like manashield that displays how much fros/fire prot. we still have. It would be the top of the top in this addon I must say.
Is it doable dear Kaeldra? :)
Really nice work with the new version, great addition of the decursive function! :)
One small thing: I prefered to have the Circle display 'None' in the blue color rather than the turquoise. Maybe others prefer turquoise though, I don't know.
Now that the decursive function is in Cryolysis I thought of something. Right-clicking the buff-menu will cast last used spell, right. Would it be possible to have the option to bind the right-click to a special spell? Personally, I think it would be nice to always have 'Remove Lesser Curse' on the right-click now. I understand and repect if this would be too much work for you, then don't bother.
I started out with Arcanum aswell and heard about Cryolysis in the Arcanum thread. At that time I felt that Arcanum was lacking functions that I would like to see in the addon.
I downloaded Cryolysis and was amazed of all the costumable functions and the similarity to Necrosis (great addon btw). I love the fact that the sphere is not cluttered with buttons around it, like I felt they where in Arcanum. The spelltimer is also something that I missed in Arcanum along with the possibility to eat and drink in one button click. Overall Cryolysis offers more possibilites to costumize the addon to the functionallity that you want to see (imo).
This is not in any way a post to make Arcanum look bad. It's a great addon in it's own way and a lot of players prefer it over Cryolysis, because they don't want an addon that is like Necrosis. Being an old Necrosis user I feel that Cryolysis is more the addon for me though.
With that said, I'm off to try out the new 1.2.2 version :)
@Medicus: Yeah, not surprised to hear that. From the screenshot of the mod it doesn't look like it has a lot to offer. Too bad :(
Patch fixes the error but now the icons are casting the wrong spells. For instance, I have the center sphere set to cast evocation, but instead it casts dampen magic. Also, although the icon for teleporting SAYS teleport to IF, when I right click the portal icons it casts Slowfall.
Any suggestions ?
Aethra: I get asked, often, what the difference between Arcanum and Crolysis is. I would really appreciate it if you could take a bit of time to write up a decent comparison of the two. I, honestly, only used Arcanum for a few minutes before I decided it wasn't what I wanted and began creating Cryolysis.
I'd really appreciate this if you could, let me know!
Thanks Tarynn, it wasn't letting me post
please download the patch and the error will be fixed ;)
there is a check now, wether you have a mount or not, so the string cant be nil anymore.
Just rolled a mage and have been trying this one out. I get the following error with the latest version as of 7/21/06:
Interface/Addons/Cryolysis/Cryolosis.lua: 860: bad argument #2 to 'find' (string expected, got nil)
help ?
I am a converted Arcanum user. I started out with that one thinking that this was some imitation but as it turned out, this mod is much better. :p Thank you for staying "truer" to Necrosis as it is a wonderful addon.
Now of course - my suggestion. heh
I really like the portal announcements. Not only are they funny but they're convenient for people in the raid. However...I don't find it necessary to have teleport announcements...especially in raid chat. Can you perhaps incorporate a seperate tick box to have Portal announce on but Teleport announce off?
It would kick serious ass. :)
Again - Thank you so much for the time you've invested in this mod. The mage community wholeheartedly thanks you as do all my free hotkeys!
@Adriella i know sacredbuff and i can tell u its crap !
Awesome dark thanks! Sorry to repost a known issue :)
@dontae: I rewrote the code for chat messaging completely. It will be fixed on the next upload
