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.

Until the devs decide to update this add-on is there an equally lightweight add-on I can use? I tried Gnosis but there's WAY too much going on.

Ugh. So it's *every* relog now? I guess 4.0.6 changed something that prevents Quartz from saving properly now. Joy. That's gonna be a PITA.

I use the default profile and change what is enabled, skins, and positions of bars. None of these changes are being saved between sessions. Everything else is working fine.

Try this (reposting from elsewhere, seems to work!):

Try this:

Open up your World of Warcraft /Interface/Quartz/modules folder, and open the player.lua with notepad. Find the line with GetSpellInfo(5138), and remove the line. It's Quartz trying to request information about Drain Mana, and it fails because the spell was removed, and this causes multiple issues.

Heh, that was originally posted here 10 hours ago, with slightly different wording. :) It's also the same fix in the new alpha version, so you can choose whether to change the file yourself vs. just download the alpha version.

Try the alpha version if you're having problems. Either get it from WowAce, or right-click in the Curse Client and tell it to get Alpha instead of Release.

Try the alpha and see if that fixes your issue. It should solve any errors related to "profiles" or "bars resetting" or "RawHook".
