Your UI

[Deeproot]

Was thinking those of us who have customized our UI's could go ahead and share them.



Here's mine, it looks the same on all characters, Omen has a different background from any of the other frames.

Addons for designing the UI:
KGPanels
Bartender4
Skada
Some huge ass artwork pack from wowinterface.com
Titanpanel
Mappy
Grid2
Prat (My Chatbox is normally a bit lower, it was moved up from when I was on another computer and needed it up due to the lack of prat)


So, what's in your wallet? what's your UI look like?

[redelic]

Sweet Jesus. What do you use as your movement keys?

[frostbytez]

It looks really clean.
Do you use your mouse to move?

[Deeproot]

I use my mouse 99% of the time, and if I'm not doing that I just take my hand off the mouse for a moment and use the arrow keys. I've never liked using WASD so I just made them into keybinds, but I only went as far as QWE on the top row because I like using R for reply. I've considered changing my middle button on my mouse to backwards movement so that I won't even have to use the arrow keys, but that could be dangerous on Deep as that is my Regrowth button, which I sadly use too often. There might be a way to disable the normal keybind in clique so that when I click middle button on grid it will just cast the spell and won't try to walk backwards, I'll have to look into that.

Also you might notice the presence of both SUF raid frames and grid2, I just have the SUF ones on buffalo because I'm too lazy to turn them off and make a separate profile for my characters frame setup. I use 2 raid frames mostly because I find it easier than remembering to press ctrl everytime I want to target someone in grid, and I use leftclick to cast rejuv.

If anyone cares to know my clique casting assignments:
Left: Rejuvenation
Right: Lifebloom
Middle: Regrowth
Button 4: Wild Growth
button 5: Swiftmend
Shift+Left: Nourish
Shift+Right: Healing Touch

LoL I was gonna say when I started reading "How do you back up?" Because that's something you have to do sometimes.

[Deeproot]

I actually don't normally back up, I just use my mouse to turn around run a bit and turn back around, except obviously if I'm tanking something painful.

Also: Where are your guys' UI's? C'mon folks, share!

[redelic]

I just use ElvUI. It's a compilation/modification of TukUI. That's more or less all my UI looks like. Nothing fancy.

[frostbytez]

I use X-perl and dominos.
I also have titan panels on top of the screen.
And Sexymap for the mini map located top right of the screen.

There's already a thread for UI's here, like a whole 6 posts down or something, but I'll bite.

Healing classes (even if I normally tank or DPS on them) put grid center and a little larger/in focus). RBS at the top right is how I annoy all of you in raid regarding buffs and it disappears when in combat. A little cluttered but it works for me. If you want to know what a specific addon is let me know, I use too many to go through and list.

click for larger versions:



Pure Tanking/DPS classes have my grid off to the right.

[Vindication]

I totally remember that deathy comment.

[Deeproot]

going to revive an old thread a bit, maybe some of the newer folks will want to share. Anyway, I've revised my UI.


Added a button to the right bar that allows me to show/hide it (I use it strictly for non-combat utilities, so it's nice to be able to hide them)
Added a background to the stance bar, more for aesthetics than anything else.
Changed Grid, now the bars are colored gray, I have a bar on the left that is just the same as the main part of the bar with the exception that it's class colored, this was just to make it easier to keep track of classes w/o having that overly-coloful grid screen.
Moved my health bars down, moved quartz, gave a background to the chat panel. Changed the artwork around on my panels, more of a green theme now.
Lot of inspiration from tukui, but w/o all the stuff I don't like about it.

Here is my UI. Minor changes since the SS but you get the gist of it.

Womp I don't play on a tiny imac. I have a lots of real-estate to work with.

When I have to stare at health boxes all the time all that other stuff helps keep me aware of other shit I can't pay attention to like most dps can. Unlike you I can't play and watch TV at the same time, people die!
