So I got a couple of requests for a list of the mods I used to build my ui:

• Align - This mod will simply display a grid on the screen when activated. I only use this when I'm moving things to line them up.
  
• Bartender3 - This is my button bar mod.
  
• MrPlow - This mod is an inventory auto-sorter and auto-stacker.
  
• OneBag - This mod will display all your inventory in a single window.
  
• OneBank - This is the same as above, but works on the bank window.
  
• PitBull - This is my unit frames mod.
  
• simpleMinimap - I use this mod to move the mini map and change the shape.
  
• DoubleWide - This is a very nice mod that enlarges the quest window and give you two columns, one for a list of the quests and the other for the quest text.
  
• SLTimex - I use this mod to display my latency on the screen. It can also display server time, local time, etc. but I have all that turned off.
  
• SLStats - I use this mod to display my total durability and total gold directly on the screen.
  
• PallyPower - This mod is used simply to contribute to my awesomeness.
  
• Grid - This is the unit frames I use when in a raid.
  

P.S. I still think Arolaide's is sexier than mine. :cool:

Thanks for posting this, Kharthis. I really like how clean the UI is ... lots of screen room to see what's going on. I'm definitely going to check these mods out.

Ahaha. At Bren's request, I made an annotated screenshot. XD

Nice. Thanks for that.

I spent a little time yesterday building my own Ace Mods Updater (as the ones that exist right right now don't work for my setup). So I'm on the search for more Ace mods to replace my non-Ace mods. I've just added Cellular & Prat to my list.

Here is a link to my interface. This image is from the ZA run a week or so ago, so it's pretty accurate of my current setup.



Addons used...

TitanPanel - This is the information across the top of the screen. Gold, item bonuses, durability, latency, guild info, and WIM (my in-game IM program).

X-Perl - This is a very customizable frame manager. In this situation it is handling the raid information. It also can change the group info interface to make it, in my opinion, more readable. A very "option intensive" but cool addon.

Omen - This is the threat meter right below the raid interface. If you don't know what this is... get it, learn it, love it.

Morganti's BuffBars - Allows for some nice customization to the look and placement of buffs and debuffs. My weapons buffs are top right, below it are my player buffs. My player debuffs appear much larger to the right of that arched heads-up-display.

Damage Meters - I have this placed right below my buffs at the top right. Just keeps track of group and individual DPS. Has a problem with tracking hunters and their pets, but I think all dps trackers do. If someone knows of one that handles those ok, please let me know.

MetaHUD - This is the large curved display in the middle. It replaces the player and target frames that usually sit top left. My info is on the left, mob info on right. The amount of information, how it's displayed, and where it is displayed is very customizable. I much perfer having this information front and center, rather then way up in the corner of the screen.

ScrollingCombatText & SCT-Damage - These are the combat damage number flying up and down from the middle of the screen. I have mine setup so outgoing damage scrolls upwards at the top and incoming damage scrolls down from the bottom.

DeadlyBossMods - This addon is almost essential for higher instances. Keeps track of what the bosses are doing, and shows you countdown to the dirty tricks they play. That's the readers digest version of what it does... but needless to say it's very useful.

CT - This is a large colletion of modular addons that can do a number of useful tasks.

I use it mostly for the ability to change the viewing area WoW is presented in. This allows me to setup that bottom bar and not actually lose any viewing area. That CT addon is called Viewport.

Another use of it is the chat options. I use it to turn off the scroll buttons on chat and allow me to just use my scroll wheel. It also places the text input box at the top instead of the bottom. And it adds the time stamps to chat and combat text.

Yet another use is for altering where QuestTracking and Tooltips are displayed. I keep my tooltips in teh standard location, but my quest progress tracker is moved to the lower left above the chat area. You can't see it due to having no quests turned on.

Bongos2 - is the button bar changer. Let's you create up to ten 12 slot bars and move then anywhere you want. As you can see i have six bars setup for my hotkeys, and one setup for my pots and food.

SimpleMiniMap - allows you to move the map around and changes it's view settings. Useful... but there are many just like it out there.

DoubleWide (Not Visable) - doubles the size of the quest frame. Useful to see all your quests, and the entire quest text at the same time.

LightHeaded (Not Visable) - Adds a third panel to your quest log that automagically displays all the comments from wowhead.com for any particular quest. Great for looking up coordinates or hints without having to minimize WoW to look at a web browser.

Metamap (Not Visable) - A nice map addon. Gives coordinates, allows you to place markers on a map, and has a knowledgebase of npc's you can view to see where they are.

MobMap (Not Visable) - Shows you where any mob in the game is at, what mobs drop what items, what bosses drop what items, where npc's are at... and so much more. A must have!

Gatherer (Not Visable) - Tracks any and all resource nodes (mining, herbs, treasure, etc) and allow for sharing between guild members.

WoW Instant Messanger (WIM) (Not Visable) - This takes all the whispers you get and sorts them into IM windows, just like any other IM client. Makes keeping up with various conversations easy.

MobInfo2 (Not Visable) - Keeps a database of mob health, drops, and other information. Useful for displaying actual mob health numbers instead of just percentages of health and such.

I'm sure there are a few I'm forgetting... but those are the ones I can remember off the top of my head. There are a bunch of class specific ones I'm not mentioning, but those are useless if you're not a rogue.

Ahaha. At Bren's request, I made an annotated screenshot. XD

Thanks for blacking out the part in our conversation about Mr. Hitachi and the lube. I was afaid you'd post that.

I would never dream of sharing our hawt hawt cyber sessions.

And I see Arolaide is using something called Cellular. I never even thought of a mod like that, but wow I can really see the usefulness of something like that! Thanks guys for mentioning that!

especially when you are cybering with multiple people, it helps keeps the mt's to a minimum. This is especially useful when you have a wide variety of fetishes, but your partners don't. You don't want to scare away your midget friend with a comment about the goat, etc...

LOL

I like that Raps...I like it a lot.

I just wanted to add to this by saying Guerrior's forum avatar made me LOL.

If you read my VS application, then you know of my high regard for Mr. Seagal's acting abilities. And can I just tell you how these have changed my life? :rolleyes:

I prefer Cellular to WIM because it's cleaner and has a lower profile. WIM duplicates the interface graphics on the borders, and I yoinked that heavy crap out of my UI for a reason. They basically work the same way otherwise, though viewing full history in Cellular requires a second click.
