Werelds' Layout

[werelds]

I just thought I'd post mine here, and get some feedback :)

I'm a bit of a minimalist, I like everything compact, so that's what I'm aiming for with my layout.

Own and party frame (http://www.werelds.net/Unitframes-Party.jpg)
Target (http://www.werelds.net/Unitframes-Target.jpg)
Raid Frames (http://www.werelds.net/Unitframes-Raid.jpg)

The only thing missing here is the pet frame, but this more or less looks like the Party frames; without the class icon.

There's still lots of things for me to do, such as aligning some of the text and resizing a few text boxes. I used one of my Pixelfonts for the text.

The main thing I want to deal with though, are my raid frames. I haven't figured out a way to change the colors of the bars to class-related colors yet (although I just want to try this and fiddle with it, no idea if I could make it look good), and more importantly: how to sort the groups based on class, alphabet and/or group number.

Anyway, feedback pleeees ;D


Update 30-08-2006: Added the layout and font as attachment. Font goes in "World of Warcraft\Fonts\" !

Those are very sexy, they remind me very much of older versions of nurfed.

I especially like the raid debuffs being on the left side, means I can stack my raid frames on the right hand side and still see the debuffs I need :)

Hope you get the sorting working, would be nice being able to see how many of each class are alive at a glance without doing lots of sub raid frames.

Edit: oh yeah, give layout please :)

I'll put up a link later, I wanna fix a few more things first :p

I also have my Raid Frames on the right side of my screen, hence the position of the debuffs ;p

The Mana bars on the raid frames go from top to bottom btw; didn't like having 2 tiny bars, making text hard to read :p

If only I was better at .LUA coding, I'm pretty sure the sorting can be done with array sorting at some point :(

werelds im working on the exact same thing atm. Dont have much time tho but if I find a solution Ill make sure to post it here.
Do you currently show buffs in the raid frames as well?
Buffs visible are damn helpful when buffing an entire raid (buffs castable by class) :)

[Miaxi]

That's an interesting idea for raid frames.

Personly I have turned buff and debuff display off since I use decursive live display to show only what I can remove.

[Shizzles]

I very much like the font you are using, care to share it's name?

Thanks in advance.

[werelds]

@ Shizzles: 04B03.TTF, findable with google :)

@ Nipsting: no, not yet, but I am planning to do that, cause as you said it helps a lot. Keep me up to date on your progress with the sorting thing :D

[werelds]

Any luck Nipsting? :(

[werelds]

Bump to see if anyone figured out how to sort the raid frames and/or make the bars have a class-bound colour :)

How did you get the reputation working? I looked through several files yesterday to get the frame to work, but all that I could find, was that the reputation hasn't been implemented at all in the basic nurfed code - or did I miss sth?

download the newest nurfed version, it has it and its working fine for me

[werelds]

In the latest version it works fine Gabriel, just a simple XPBar


I've added my Layout.lua and the font I use; it would be nice if anyone could test them for me.

Font goes in the main WoW Font dir, I've put it there because I use it in other addons as well.

The layout should work flawlessly, but as I've changed a few things in a couple of other Nurfed files as well, I'm not 100% sure :P

Edit: Frame scale I use is 0.90 by the way, otherwise the frames look screwed up ;) Minimalist FTW!
