How To Make a Good UIFollow

Right click on the Pitbull icon, go to Configuration mode, and select "Party."

This will bring up all of the potential party frames and allow you to move them around.

If you're still using the old non-RockLib version of Pitbull, there should either be an icon on your minimap, or somewhere on FuBar if you have it. Shift-click that icon until the tooltip reads "Configuration Mode: Party" or "Raid" and you can edit the frames from there.

If you're using the RockLib version, type /rock, then click the Pitbull menu on the side. There should be a drop-down menu with the option to configure by raid or by party.

1680x1050


I'm working on a filefront download today. It'll be packaged for a 1680x1050 resolution, but moving things around a bit shouldn't be to hard. I'll even write up instructions on how to do it. Since the eepanels are parented, really all you'd have to do it move everything to the right place, which would take less than 5 minutes.

UI is currently packaged and uploading to filefront. I'll post a link when it's done.

edit: And here it is, the fruit of all my labor, child of my thoughts and brain power (lord that speaks kinda pathetically for my brain, huh?): Theo's UI Compilation v1.1!

There's a readme file at the very beginning that will tell you how to go about installing it.

Feedback is welcome, as are questions.

ninja edit: here is the version of my UI that was uploaded, before everyone panics that I didn't upload the right version.

I can give details as to how to get it to look like my old UI if anyone prefers, but I rather like this new version, hence why I uploaded it.

Your character names show up in the profiles in case you care.

Doesn't matter to me.

Tyr- could you be more specific? I'd like to fix the problem if I can and update the download.

What resolution are you running at?

I'm going to be uploading a new version with updated WTF folders and a nice raid setup that you can enable in Pitbull, should you feel so inclined.

The latest one cleared up my problems, and is looking good.

One question though, I'm used to metamap instead of cartographer and have coordinates in it already. Does anyone know if you can transfer that accross?

Also, I didn't see it in the settings, but can you turn on the coordinates in cartographer and set waypoints?

Thanks Theo, I'm not seeing where you can import coordinates but its no big deal, I found how to do the rest.

Damn its 1am and I have to get up at 6, I better go to sleep.

I have it all configured to where I like it much better now than what I using before. Somehow I turned on a addon memory usage meter in my upper right hand corner that in bigger text than I'd like shows FPS, MB used from addons, and latency. Once I figure out how to remove that this is perfect for my use after some tweaking (I'm still a lowbie leveling up, so I added questfu, and turned on the xp bar (or modified it, maybe it was on already).

I'm feeling grown up already after this week, no more keyboard turning, no more clicking, and now a nice clean interface.

I lol'd

Theo put a lot of work into making that, and that's how you thank him.

I can understand why you're doing it one by one, but I don't think its wise to discourage somebody who does so much for the forum.

Eh. To me it's like this:

Your date makes you dinner but you don't like it.
A) You slip it to the dog and keep mum
B) You say, "I don't like this food. I'm gonna just go make some for myself."

Theo already fixed the problem, so why bother with a post like that?

Oh please, I think Theo can take it >_>.

What's the add on you use to remove your portrait, change the lines and move the hp/mana for you/target/party around?

You won't be able to click anything but the one hotbar (see the screenshot I have up) that I have showing, nor, as a rogue, should you be clicking.

You ideally should be binding with bongos2, and if you want to, say, have a stealth bar that will change while you're stealthed, I already have bar 3 set up to change. Type "/bob show 3" to show that bar.

Yes Eon, unfortunately your girlfriend will be shocked at the addon explosion that you incurred on your PC. Depending on what class she plays, you can try changing around my bongos configurations to get it to her liking, or if she's a clicker, just show some of the bars and put them somewhere nice and visible. Unfortunately, Pitbull doesn't allow for multiple profiles, so anything she changes in Pitbull or eepanels will be changed for your configuration.

BTW, I really don't take offense to anyone saying that they're turned off from my UI. I made this to help people, not to say that this was the only way to do a UI. If more people jump on the Ace2 train and start using their addons, that's good enough for me. I realize that many people are just like, ********** it, give me an entire package that will look nice and have good functionality, I don't want to know how it works," but others will want to know how everything fits together and how everything works. I applaud what Tyr is doing, because if everyone kept using the same package UI, we'd all still be using the ****** CT mods.

Anyhow, if anyone encounters more problems, let me know. Questions, comments, and concerns can be addressed here. Also, I've stated this in the readme file, but BACK UP YOUR WTF AND ADDONS FOLDERS BEFORE INSATLLING MY UI.
