Infused with the power of WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! this is the AddOn you've been waiting for! Yes! The AddOn that you've been craving since you started playing Warhammer!
When using WaaaghBar you get a simplistic UI that only shows the most important information, in a streamlined text form, only backed with a few icons to make it all look cool ;)
Standard Package
The standard download of WaaaghBar comes with 6 plugins.
- System
- This will provide you with a Clock module.
- Location
- Shows a world coordinate according to the #WARUIDEV standard (division by 1k) and your current zone.
- Money
- Shows the amount of gold, silver and brass you have.
- Stats
- Shows your current and needed experience and renown with a percentage.
- Performance
- Shows your FPS.
- Social
- Shows your total online friends and guildies.
Slash Commands
- /wgb main lock
- Will toggle whether the bar is locked or not. Remember this WaaaghBar is current in the background layer, so you can't have overlapping frames over it.
- /wgb clock hours 12 or 24
- If this is set to 12 it will display in AM/PM style, 24 will be full normal clock format
- /wgb clock format string
- Use whatever formatting you wish, check Lua String Formatting.
Setup
I suggest you use /script WindowSetShowing("UiModWindow", true) to disable the EA Mythic addons called "EA_RpBarWindow" and "EA_XpBarWindow". You can alternatively use the LayoutManager to move things around. Please notice that WaaaghBar does not register with the LayoutManager.
Plugin Support
WaaaghBar operates on a plugin platform, and you can write all the plugins you want to. However, I do not support those I havent written my self (atleast I dont feel obligated too, I will probably help all I can). I do intend to write VERY thorough API documentation and a guide on how to make a sample plugin.

shockbeta Tue, 11 Nov 2008 03:38:05Anyone still visiting this page and not the clone page just putting down a forward to the new project page. I finally released the clone as it's own project as it's not looking like this is gonna get an update.

shockbeta Mon, 27 Oct 2008 12:43:10I'm sure an update is coming around the corner... I hope, but while I was waiting for it I took some liberties with waaaghbar made a clone and uploaded it. What started out as fixing the major issue of sorting/saved layout turned into a lot more. A lot of the tickets I believe are fixed in one way or another and a slew of other features. anyways if you want to check it out, it's over here http://war.curseforge.com/projects/wa.../files/

Aerthan Sun, 26 Oct 2008 19:07:30I went ahead and gave Stats it's own timer and put the patch up at http://war.curseforge.com/projects/waaaghbar/tickets/39-add-xp-tooltip-for-stats-plugin/ if people want to try it out. I think the rest color is easier on the eyes, but I'm somewhat color-blind so let me know if it's really awful.

Arvec Fri, 24 Oct 2008 02:44:20I wouldn't worry about matching the color of the real tooltip, considering we're abandoning most of the default UI at this point, anyway XD
I'd rather have something easier on the eyes. Is there any way to change the color of the actual xp numbers on the bar while you have rest? I can look into doing it myself if/when this change posts. At any rate, I do like the look of that tooltip, but would prefer some options to make it more minimalistic - I don't care about my xp rate or how many mobs I need to level, I'd just like it to show rank, tnl (current and total xp needed are already on the bar, after all), and remaining rest, if any.
Well, that's just my opinion, and I can always alter it to fit my needs. I know enough to make a few modifications, but not enough to write an entire addon by myself.
As always, I appreciate the work done by everyone on the waaaghbar and it's addons!

Aerthan Thu, 23 Oct 2008 16:03:40I'll post a patch for it once I figure out how the author wants to handle timers.

Gridgendal Thu, 23 Oct 2008 14:58:51I'd like to see the code for that tooltip. Looks like a great addition

Aerthan Thu, 23 Oct 2008 06:00:29I uploaded an image of the tooltip I came up with.
This is what I have for rest bonus, I tried to match the color in the real xp tooltip for bonus but I think it's too dark.

phliptrip Wed, 22 Oct 2008 17:42:05I originally came here to suggest some changes, but found that there were already patches for most of my suggestions, so I figured I'd make a consolidated enhancements/bugs thread for others who might visit. I listed threads with patches first for those who want the feature immediately and for the authors of the mod in case they get bored.

darkside1382 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 02:57:38I would love to see code for onmouseover tooltips. I created an xp per hour mod and would like to integrate it with waaaghBar, but without tooltips it just doesn't work well. Please post a link to some code if you have it.

Aerthan Tue, 21 Oct 2008 14:48:38Do you take submissions for updates? I'd really like to see mouseover tooltip details for most of your plugins and would be willing to write them. Are you planning on adding a session timer that all the the plugins could share to calculate things like xp/hr, renown/hr, gold/hr, etc. It would be nice to have it be plugin-wide so it could be reset (and possibly call reset for each registered plugin) once and affect all the plugins.
