Hey guys, quick question:

Is it possible to remove the border around buff/debuff icons in Shadowed Unit Frames? Or to change the looks of the buff/debuff icons in Shadowed Unit Frames generally?

Any help is appreciated! Cheers

You can change all Icon with Masque, but SUF should also have an option for smaller borders (remember to changed it once to smaller ones or even hide them).

See if Stratafix @ Curse works.

Disabling absolutely all addons "fixed" it.
That addon didn't fix it.
I'll post again if I find the culprit.

What chat addons do you guys prefer? I've been using chatter for a bit, but looking for a change... Any recommendations?

No, you need to set it specifically for every font object.

You don't need an addon to fully replace default Blizz fonts. Under the World of Warcraft folder (the same place you find your Interface, Screenshot, and WTF folders) just make a folder named Fonts. Then find any truetype font and place it in there (fonts end with the extension .ttf). you will need 5 of them. Copy/paste that file till you have 5 of them. Rename them skurri.ttf, ARIALN.ttf, FRIENDS.ttf, FRIZQT__.ttf, and MORPHEUS.ttf. There you go! You have replaced all default blizzard fonts with whatever you chose. NOTE: Any addon that also uses the default fonts will also show the new font.

These are all the latin-based fonts used by the game. The ones ending with CYR (cyrillic characters, i.e. Russian) can be ignored by the majority of NA users and shouldn't be replaced unless the font you are using has a full set of cyrillic characters.

(FRIZQT has two underscores, its CYR counterpart has three, and NIM has five)


I don't know where you got FRIENDS.ttf, but a font with that name does not exist in the game files. There is a defined font family in the UI code called "FriendsFont" but it uses FRIZQT__.TTF.

Here's all the non-latin game fonts (in order: Korean, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese).

Ah yeah. FRIENDS.ttf was used waaaay back with the old friends list. I've been throwing that in ever since. Should prob stop doin that.

Interesting, being an EU player gathering fonts with Cyrillic support.
I hate seeing question marks or boxes etc.

Bookmarked for reference, thank you.

There once was an addon that could make action buttons more transparent if the spell was on cooldown. I can't find it anymore - anyone got an idea of its name?

So since a couple of weeks (before 7.1), my Gnosis acts kinda weird.

I want my castbar (purple) to end at the end of the cast bar frame, you know, like a normal cast bar should look like.

My Gnosis bars however end way before, at the green arrow, sometimes some more inches to the left or right.



I already unchecked / disabled all kinds of latency boxes and so on, but I just cant figure out why this is.

[equiptoh]

There's a rogue addon that announces how many times you rolled the bones until you got a specified amount of buffs. Is there any that can say how many consecutive times you've casted a spell? IE Storm Strike via Stormbringer procs.

One of these addons got updated and it's fixed now. http://prntscr.com/d0ps05
Not sure which was the culprit, Z-Perl is most likely.
