SimpleHalo
A very simple range display for the level 90 Priest talent, Halo.
Features
- Small simple display for positioning yourself for Halo
- Indicator only appears and checks ranges while you're in combat
- Plus/Minus indicator for repositioning. Minus means you're too close, Plus means you're too far away.
- Green Light: Halo Sweet Spot
- Yellow Light: Slightly outside the sweet spot
- Red Light: Far outside the sweet spot
- White: Unit (default is Target) does not exist
- Several options for when to show the indicator
- Solo, party, and raid options
- By default only shows when you enter into combat
- Option to always show when the group filter matches (I.E. Show when out of combat)
Love the addon.
The only thing I miss would be on option to show only if Halo is on cooldown : I already have a weakAura detecting the cooldown and showing an icon when available, it would be great to be able combine this with the range indicator.
Great and lightweight addon. Really relied on it during MoP, but it longer loads except in configuration mode and that's only for a few seconds :(.
Are you sure you have the latest version? I fixed an issue with the 6.0.2 patch at the beginning of November. If you're on the latest version, do you get any error messages (try turning on Show Lua Errors in the WoW options)
I have the latest version,1.0.13, via Curse client. I'm not getting any LUA errors from any addon. Are there any known conflicts with BigWigs, MFClip, Healbot, Recount, or WeakAuras?
Nothing that I am aware of. I hvery most of those and it works on my level 90 priest without issues.
Any updates on this mod? Really like it, but it doesn't seem to work except for those few seconds in configuration mode.
I haven't bsent able to reproduce your issue and haven't had a similar report from anyone else. Can you try uninstalling and deleting your saved variables?
Great addon thank you ! I just tried it with 6.02, but unfortunately it seems to dissapear after i unclick the "configuration mode", even when "show out of combat" is checked ...
Also, th eoptins do not show in the interface - addon menu, you have to use / halo to access them.
And that's what I get for not playing my priest in Beta. New build should be out soon that will fix the window hiding.
I didn't have any issue with seeing the options under the interface - options - addons section.
ok glad I am not the only one :) was in shad spec and wondered if it only worked in healing spec - ty for this addon Starinnia!
If I enter Inferface/AddOns menu, there are no options at all.
There is an entry for SimpleHalo, but it is empty... In Addons menu SimpleHalo AND SimpleHalo Optiins is marked.
Any idea how to enter the options?
If you click the entry in the Interface options it should load the Options and refresh your screen. This is how it works on my own install. You can also load the options with one of the slash commands. /simplehalo or /halo
The "Lock Frame" option isn't working. Whether it's checked or not, I'm still able to move the indicator. Otherwise, excellent addon. Keep up the good work on it.
Latest alpha should fix this. Looks like the lock setting wasn't being applied live. Checking the box and reloading should have applied the setting previously. But it should work as expected now. I'll test it after work and tag a release then, but don't have time this morning.
Really, really like this addon, but until I can set it to show both in and OUT of combat, rather than just appear after combat starts, I can't use it. Halo is a part of my opener, and I like getting to optimal range before a boss pull, so I don't have to immediately move.
Other than that, I love the way it looks, and especially how lightweight it is compared to Halo Pro, which I'd rather not use.
I can add that option, I'll put it off by default just because I'd rather not always be range polling.
Alpha build r28 should work. I only did limited testing so please give it a try, if it's all good I'll tag a release.
Thanks! Everything looks good in r28 so far, working great. This is by far the best halo addon I've found.
