Can anyone help me make my WoW look like this screenshot. It's so clean and simple, and my WoW is getting quite cluttered and confusing as I'm leveling higher and learning new skills.

Only question about that shot is, if I got mine like that, would I still be able to hit 1,2,3 etc. for attacks? I don't see any numbers on those skills.

I'd recommend starting on the WoWace.com forums and browsing the flash your UI thread. Lots of them linked in there premade for you. Most, like my own, trying to remove clutter.

To your other question, yes, you can still have hotbinds on your keys if you like. That can be disabled and enabled via the config.

Yeah I had to get a new UI after my harddrives crashed and I lost all my data... (and before you say anything I did have backups... but the backup drive crashed also >_<)

What is the name of the addon that display's money latency , time.... ?

its in both pictures :D , also , spookie , what unitframe addons are you using ? :p

Google "SLCore", it has branches you can get like clock, FPS, armour, gold, memory useage and so on. Unitframes are pitbull. Took me about 2hrs to configure them how i liked them.

And what UI are you using? Thats damn nice aswell.

Spookie's UI I guess. :p

Started off as photek but most of his addons got thrown out over two months ago!

I love the style of this UI, but have a bunch of problems. That can only be fixed if you're able to customize this UI, which I don't know if you can.

How can I get all my skills on 1 single bar at the bottom like yours? (Spookie)

How can I move the box that says my name/level/HP/mana? I'd like it more off the screen rather than almost right in the middle.

On the right side of my screen there's a box with blue line for the combat log I guess, can I remove this? And the "ClosetGnome" box?

I really like the look and simplicity of your interface Spookie, care to share how to customize mine?

One more thing, look at my chat log. I'm getting all these "SkinMe" errors, I put the AddonSkins stuff in the SkinMe folder and it ddin't fix anything. Any help out there?

First things first:

What is the add-on that has an arrow pointing you in the direction of a quest, with yards and ETA?

TomTom, or Cartographer. Comes with both addons.

Nothing is "locked" per-se. You can move everything just need to know what addon is controlling said bar then finding the unlock command. :)

How can I get all my skills on 1 single bar at the bottom like yours? (Spookie)

eepanels, create a small panel and extend it so it covers the lower half of your screen. Can also use skinner but I don't like the way it looks.

How can I move the box that says my name/level/HP/mana? I'd like it more off the screen rather than almost right in the middle.

If I'm correct. Thats AG_U(nit)F(rames). I have used them in the past and they are much more approachable than pitbull (in short it's a wall of text and variables). Try installing Deuse commander (spelling?). It'll give a drop downlist of all the addons installed that it can help you configure. That will let you adjust the layout without having to use the chat config.

On the right side of my screen there's a box with blue line for the combat log I guess, can I remove this? And the "ClosetGnome" box?

Unlock EEPanels, hover over the bar to find the number, then go to it's config screen and remove it. :)

I really like the look and simplicity of your interface Spookie, care to share how to customize mine?

Pfft... Trial and error? :blush:

But seriously most of mine was put together by breaking down popular UIs. By moving things about, working out what made something look like the way it did, installing it and having a go at configuring it to how I liked it.

With the addons you have installed now, you can get close to replicating mine. Just try messing about with EEpanels placing them where you'd like them and so on.

I'll work on zipping mine up and getting it working.

One more thing, look at my chat log. I'm getting all these "SkinMe" errors, I put the AddonSkins stuff in the SkinMe folder and it ddin't fix anything. Any help out there?

Ignore them for the time being :)

Planning on getting into WoW on my birthday LOL. How long does it usually take before you get addicted to this?

If you are starting out then try get a partnership with someone else going quickly, as the first 40ish levels are pretty dull imo. Try find a nice social guild for the chit chat so that you aren't questing in silence too. Shouldn't take long to get addicted to it though. Unfortunately now, the real fun starts 60+ as most guilds are now in the outlands doing the content there. So that means you will also need to get the Burning Crusade expeansion pack.

Levelling recently got buffed to make things faster, ie less xp needed and more xp given :)

I have a concern.

When I buy the game today or tomorrow, will I easily find people to be in a party with? For quests/instance runs etc. ? I usually have to run up to random people I see grinding to see if they want to party up and do something. I get pretty good results like that, too. Also, how do I find a guild? Just ask around town?

Just wondering.

it may be tough but I say go on a new server with a low population where there be newbies that will need groups or I say wait till the next expansion when you get alot of people for groups but thing is most of them will be 70.

Just a question, having just recently upgraded my laptop, I would of expected better frame rates in fights.

Previous machine I was running was a Centrino 1.7 1 gig of DDR2 and an X700 64 meg. Would run things on middle settings and get about 10-15fps in Shatt 25-30 fps during fights.

Now have 1.66 Core2 Duo 2 gig of DDR2 and a 512meg 8600GS in the laptop. I have put things up to max and within Shatt im hitting about 40fps which is nice. But in raid fights im just managing to get about 25-30 :s

I'm guessing maybe checking for driver updates might give a bit more performance or does this sound about right?

Also was previously running XP now running Vista Home Premium.

I got the 10-day free trial, made a guy, starting killing. Then I saw guys with yellow !'s above their head, clicked em. Oh, they give you quests, I've played a game like this before, I'll try it...

BOOM! addicted. Level 34 Gnome Mage. A few blues, did my first BG the other day. Had no idea what was going on, still don't. 14 honor points!

It's weird though, maybe someone else feels as I do. Sometimes I wanna play so bad, then I hop on and grind out 3 levels for hours and hours. Other times I have no desire to go on. It's almost like, you know you have some long ass runs ahead of you, and some frustrating grinding, so I'm stressing myself into not playing. O_o

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds

      Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4

      By Copernic · Posted

      Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
