GladiusEx
GladiusEx is an arena unit frames addon based on Gladius.
What's new
New features include:
- Party frames: support for showing frames for your own team
- Cooldown tracker: a highly configurable module for tracking all types of cooldowns
- Skill history: shows the icons of the last few skills used by the unit
- Alerts: makes the frames blink in a noticeable way during some configured events (including low health, auras and specific spells being cast)
- Pets: new module for displaying pet bars
- Interrupts: See the interrupts directly on your arena & party frames.
And the classic modules, most of which have been improved in various ways:
- Auras: now with more filtering options
- Class Icon: new display modes: by spec, role and portraits
- Cast Bar: now shows which spells can't be interrupted
- DR Tracker: track the diminishing returns timers on both the enemy team and your team. Now lets you select which icon you want displayed for every category!
- Health Bar: now displays incoming heals and absorbs
- Tags: configure every text to show exactly what you want, now with more built-in tags and improved performance
FAQ
How do I bring the user interface up ?
You can use the /gex slash command, or you can access the options from the addons tab in the interface panel.
Where did the trinket and the dispels modules go ?
They have been replaced by the cooldowns module, which now allows you to have several groups of cooldowns configured independently. By default, the trinket cooldown is shown in group 2 and a few other cooldowns in group 1.
What is that additional set of frames that I see ?
Those are the party frames. This is incremental functionality that will help you track not only your enemies but also your friends. If you use your own you can turn these easily off in the general settings. You can also disable only your own frame, but keep the GladiusEx party frames.
Is it possible to have text timers for the auras, cooldowns or the DR icons ?
The timer module has been removed, but this can be achieved with OmniCC or other similar addons.

The problem with the click module not working went away when I enabled the party module. Originally, I turned off the party module right away prior to changing any other settings. It'd be nice if they could be independently configurable (the party and enemy settings).. thanks again!

Posted Apr 25, 2013Yeah there are a few classes that need to have their list of cooldowns updated, but it is a very time consuming process.

I actually was not able to make it work by disabling the party frames - I was just explaining a bit about my setup.
I'll upload my savedvariables tonight (in about 4 hrs or so).
Thanks!

Posted Apr 4, 2013Can you post your SavedVariables file ? It may be useful for reproducing the bug. Just use the ticket system to create a new ticket and attach your GladiusEx.lua file (which should be somewhere in your SavedVariables folder).

Posted Apr 4, 2013I don't. The weird thing is it worked Tuesday night than not Wednesday night. The only thing I change was trying out lose control add on, oqueu add on and I change around gladiusex set up. I did disable both new add ons and return to the default profile which didn't seem to fix it.
I think I might be interpreting dubdogs post a little different after rereading this morning. He is getting around this issue by disabling party frames. That solution doesn't work for me. Nothing happens when I click the enemy unit frames. It would set me as the focus or target if I clicked on my toons part of the party frames.
Thanks for responding so quickly. I have gotten so used to targeting and setting focus this way I'm lost with out it.

Posted Apr 3, 2013Thank you for updating this great addon and I really like how you have incorporated many of its features.
Bug/Problem: The click module is not working correctly for me. If I leave the default settings then it will not allow me to target or focus the enemy. I have disabled the party frames and enabled the click module. I tried leaving the default as well as recreating the click actions. When I click on an enemy frame it just targets my player. The old gladius has been removed, however, I do use the addon pack Elvui, Auctioneer, Skada, and battleground targets.
I tried r35 and v0.3-beta. I also reloaded UI between setting changes in GladiusEx. This was also happening to my arena partner.
Do you have any tips or suggestions or would you like more information?
Thanks again, Dub

Posted Apr 3, 2013Hello,
That will be nice if you add a trinket announcement (add a checkbox "Trinket" ).
Just an idea, you could add also an announcement on using cooldown that have been checked.
Today, i will do some arena with my mate, i could you do more feedback and suggestion.
I repeat it , thank for this great addon.
Skamer.

Posted Apr 2, 2013Hello, thank you for your nice work, i can finally use Gladius in Arena.
I have some suggestion :
- Can you set Lullaby spell as important aura, it will allow to see more easy this CC.
I add manually this line ( ~Line 1055 in Auras.lua), and its work ( tested only on french client ).
[GetSpellInfo(19386)] = 3, -- Wyvern Sting
[GetSpellInfo(126246)] = 3, -- Lullaby
[GetSpellInfo(19503)] = 3, -- Scatter Shot
- I'd like change trinket icon positon without change cooldowns icons position, how can we do it or we can't it?
Thank you for advance,
Best Regard, Skamer.
