Quartz
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.
Since the change to Taste For Blood, the Quartz Proc warrior module will throw an error while getting the spell info.
This is the new Taste For Blood
http://www.wowhead.com/spell=56636
This is the old Taste For Blood:
http://old.wowhead.com/spell=56638
Line 15 in Procs\Classes\warrior.lua should be:
[string.lower(GetSpellInfo(56636))] = { color={1,0.5,0}, name=GetSpellInfo(56636), },
Instead of the current:
[string.lower(GetSpellInfo(56638))] = { color={1,0.5,0}, name=GetSpellInfo(56638), },
Wonderful to finally see an update for this addon however the cast bar is still disappearing for warlock's when moving using the Kil'jaeden's Cunning talent.
on my quartz, cds and buffs dont appear and i dont know why, i got them enable
Thanks for the update, this is an awesome addon.
Switching from DK DW Frost to 2h and was advised a swing timer would help. Quartz was woring on Thursday and then stopped. I upgraded it when the update came out, deleted my version loaded and reinstalled the updated version, but still can't get my swing time bar back. Any advice?
I also downloaded Procs, but sill don't see my KM of IF procs.
Help please?
Thanks,
No option to hide the default target's cast bar, only for player and focus :<
Hooray for the update ;).
...Monk channels are missing...
Update .. Please :))
Is there anyway to blacklist certain buffs (or debuffs) from the buff watcher area ? .. I don't need to see my hour long buffs all the time :).
I'm sure this will get update just intime for 5.2 then all we need to do is wait till 5.3
Hiya :D
Love this addon, one of my favorites.
Will this be updated anytime soon?
I'd love to be able to have double target bars. Any way to do this?
Could you please update this? I'd love to use it again. Thanks!
Meanwhile we wait, is there another addon for cast bar?
Hi Author, love what you have here. Can I be stupid and ask how I move the timer bars for AV? Have never been able to work out how to move them.
Thanks
is there a way to change the frame strata/level so that it is infront of things like blizzards default scrolling combat text?
Update anytime soon? Broken for warlocks with Kil'jaeden's Cunning talent.. cast bar disappears when you move sometimes.. If anyone can figure out a workaround / edit.. hit me up please!
The only workaround I know of is to simply recast. The bug only happens about once every so often, if you start to cast while stationary but move mid-cast.
Please update!
First of all, I just want to say a big thank you for this addon. It's plainly the best :P
I also would like to submit a temporary fix to this addon not being updated, inspired from a fix people did to the Postal addon.
The trick is to modify the "Quartz.toc" file, modifying the line "## Interface: 50001" to "## Interface: 50100". It works while we wait for an update.
