Discussion: User Created UI Addons?

[TimonLoon]

I like the idea of the party members "threat Meter",
that can be easily added via a small indicator on the party window.
Just a small dot that changes color indicating the party members current threat.

This is already possible in 2.0. The threat meter is the little colored bar next to party member's name in the party list. What we don't have, and I'm expecting we will sooner or later, is have this information in numerical form and on a bar graph. The bar graph gives you an at-a-glance view oh who is on top and who is about to pull without having to worry about color or number of the bar.

Edit: Actually the bar has different sizes in some of the screenshots for 2.0. But I don't see this on any of the new Gamescom one. Er nevermind none of those show the player in a group.

It's insane how many people are posting screenshots of terrible WOW UI's and pretending like that's the de-facto UI in WOW. You can get everything from minimalist UIs with just a map and text box, to clusterf**k spreadsheet UI. It's like you guys haven't even done any UI customization.

Gives them the illusion that they're proving their point when in reality, they don't have one. They're just out to complain about anything that makes this game even remotely resemble another MMO.

DMG meters also help figure out the effect of stats and stuff on Abilities. i use it to see if a gear setup is better for a fight, what spell/abilities to use against certain mobs. also for thoes saying damage meter will force DPS checks and what not.. look if the elitist dont check your DPS they will check your gear.

Exactly. Which is why I don't understand all the complaining over it. lol

If anyone is wondering how my UI looks in action:

Everything important (text-wise) is on the center. Charts at the bottom. Bottom right is the entire raid. Bottom left is chat window.

My initial point was I don't want it to take the game over . Then again the FF population is pretty nice and cool people. I don't think it'll be a problem.

DMG Meter
Threat Meter
Customization for my action bar size/amount/location
HP,HP%,MP, and MP% for everything I target
Customization for viewing my PT/Alliance list
Some sort of Auction House Add On where I can check prices without being in a city. Being notified when my crap sells would be cool too.

I will use the original UI, maybe I'll change the position of some action button, but now I dont know which addon will help me in version 2.0

My idea: The ability to export a list of your inventory into a .txt file for easy posting on forums and such.
