Quartz

Table of Contents

Quartz is a modular approach to a casting bar addon. An overview of (hopefully most of) the modules:

*Player
The core of Quartz is lightweight implementation of a standard casting bar, with configurable size, text and icon positioning, and colors.

*Target/Focus
Implementation of target and focus casting bars in similar fashion to the player cast bar.

*Buffs
Display of target and focus buffs and debuffs as duration bars.

*Flight
Hooks into FlightMap or InFlight to display the current flight progress on your casting bar.

*Global Cooldown
Displays a tiny spark-bar to show your Global Cooldown near the cast bar. Helpful for those who'd rather not squint at their action bars to see when they can cast again.

*Interrupt
Changes the color and text of your casting bar to help show that your cast has been interrupted (and show who interrupted it).

*Latency
Displays the amount of time spent between cast send and start events, in the form of a bar at the end of your casting bar, with optional text that displays the actual duration of the lag. This helps in canceling casts when they will not actually be interrupted, especially for users with consistently high pings.

*Mirror
Shows the 'basic' timers such as breath and feign death, as well as some 'odd' ones such as party invite time, resurrect timeout, and arena game start, and a framework for injecting custom timers into the bars.

*Range
Recolors the casting bar when your cast target moves out of range mid-cast.

*Swing
Displays a swing timer for your melee weapon as well as hunter autoshot.

*Timer
Allows for creating custom timers displayed on the mirror bars.

*Tradeskill Merge
Merges multiple casts of the same tradeskill item into one big cast bar.

Use /quartz to bring up the configuration menu.

If you're still running WOW in the background, shut it down and try to re-open it. If it's not running, reboot to see if that frees up the file. If the file persists in not letting you open it, if you're running windows, shift right click the icon, and the option for Open With should appear, and try opening it with something like Notepad.

Issues with Tradeskill. Not sure if it is because I'm utilizing the bartender ace3 libraries.

4.0.6: My latency is no longer showing on my cast bars, despite latency being enabled. It is no longer showing mind flay ticks, either.

Not sure my issues are with profiles but I am getting a handful of errors after 4.0.6. Similar to this one below. One for Latency.lua, Tradeskill.lua,

In my case that was derivative to the Drain Mana issue in Player.lua. Latency and Tradeskill complain about missing functions they're trying to hook, but the functions are only missing because the Player.lua error stopped them from being created correctly. Fix Player.lua and this is also fixed.

4.0.6 removed Drain Mana, and Quartz is confused by this.

Open modules/Player.lua, find the line with GetSpellInfo(5138), and remove the line. Or if you prefer, comment the whole line out. I can't say that this is the -only- bug occurring since the patch, but it's the only one I encountered personally, and removing 1 line fixed it.

BTW this solved the "profile" issue for at least one person in my guild. So don't think it's just a warlock issue and won't solve your problem; it's worth trying.

Same here. Tried deleting Quartz's wtf files and reinstalling quartz. Also tried using a different profile other than the default one. No matter what, fails to save.

Any plan for the Boss frame casting bar? I can see them on the ShadowedUF but they are not customizable. Thanks.
