Starting a new thread since the original was a work in progress, and may be hard for new users to find the relevant parts.

First off, for a picture of what it looks like in my current UI set up(just a link instead of the actual image as my resolution 1920x1200 makes it pretty big):
http://www.spiralguild.net/pic/ui.jpg

Secondly, with Nurfed you can now import layouts to create frames and edit them in game. However this is still very buggy. For example, it positions the HUD incorrectly, and also saves it incorrectly so when you log out and back in, it's all messed up. Thirdly it also has a tendacy to reset a lot of values which you must reapply every time you log in.

So the method I prefer to use when dealing with nurfed for now is actually editing the SavedVariables Nurfed.lua. Of course I use the import feature to get the actual frame I want into my Nurfed.lua. Then I just use that instead of the in game things to edit it.

So to get this HUD to work without me uploading my layout.lua is to do the following: Download the attached .rar file (holds the images for the HUD) and place those images in AddOns\Nurfed\Images

Next, you'll want to go to your Nurfed SavedVariables Nurfed.lua which is located at: WTF\Account\AccountName\Server\Character\SavedVari ables\Nurfed.lua

Open it up and under

NURFED_FRAMES = {
["frames"] = {
Add the contents of hud.txt

One thing to note, is it's spaced for my screen and resolution, so may need adjustment. Part of the hud.txt is

["Point"] = {
[5] = 129.9999939551774,
[1] = "CENTER",
[2] = "UIParent",
[3] = "CENTER",
[4] = 199.9999893161274,
},
To move them closer together or further apart you change #4, to move it up or down you change #5. You do this for both the hudtarget and hudplayer.

Heya, ive been useing this hud for a week now is there any possibility to create a casting bar that fits it in the same style?
Maybe something like the tribal style thats further down on this page. I have tried it myself but ive come across loads of incompatibilities so i stopped trying. But maybe you who knows the code a bit better can do it?

sincerely Nathor

Firstly nice hud, can't wait to come home and try it :D

Secondly, how did you get that petbar to show up. I've been trying it for a few days nw, but i can't seem to figure it out. Did you make it with Nurfed or with something else? :confused:

Heyo =)

Is there any way to incorperate OOC fading, castbar support and Pet support? The original Askus Textures for this are still available.
I think at the very least OOC fading should be coded. Let me know if I can help in any way.


Thanks Shield for putting this together for us!
