WTFlux

I built a very very simple World of Warcraft addon. It has a list of 50 random messages it /say’s when you ressurect someone.  Theorhetically - you can take this yourself and customize it to do just about anything.  There is a readme file that will help you get going - and the AddonTemplate.lua file itself is also commented very well.

I stole this from a priest addon compilation a long time ago.  They stopped developing the addon, and I forget who did it originally.  Sry.

Anyway - you are more than welcome to[download it here] and play with it.  Enjoy!

Zhunter is a great mod that will save you some action button real-estate.  Do you have your favorite aspects mapped to a button or a macro?  Have all your different traps set everywhere on your UI?  Have all your pet management buttons all over the place?  Zhunter will help you get organized and free up a ton of space.  Zhunter is basically like a hunter button dock that sits on the left side of your screen, below your party interface.  There are 4 buttons stacked vertically - ZAspect, ZTrap, ZTrack, and ZPet.  Left click chooses the visible button, right click expands the options and lets you choose which action you want.

Use /zhunter to access options.
Here is a list of the other tools that come with Zhunter:

ZAutoShot (Casting bar for auto shot) - Use /zautoshot to lock/unlock the bar for movement.
ZAutoStrip (Button to strip your valuable gear.) -Right-click to auto strip when you exit combat (feign).
ZHunterTranq (Cooldown bars for other Hunter’s Tranq Shot.) Shows misses and includes options to announce in chat.
ZAntiDaze (Removes Cheetah and Pack when you or your party gets dazed.)
ZFeignHealth (Shows the actual health of friendly hunters while feigned.)
ZPetAttack (Key Binding to have pet attack or return if already attacking.)
ZPetObey (Key Binding to have pet stay or follo)

So if you want to free up some space on your UI, Zhunter will help you out.  I use it, love it and wholeheartedly recommend it.

Next up in the Hunter helper series is the Gazmik Fizzwidget’s feed-0-matic. This addon is primarily to assist in feeding your pet. To feed a pet, you need to click on your feed pet button, then click on what you want to feed it in your backpack. With the feed-o-matic, you can bind a key to Fizzwidget’s tool and by pressing it you can automatically feed your pet the correct food. How do you know the food is correct? The FOM automatically knows which is good for your pet- but if you are paranoid that it will feed your pet some of your raid food, you can configure (The console keyword to open up the options is: /fom) the FOM to never feed certain kinds of food.

One button pet feeding! SWEET!

But wait - there’s MOAR! You can also jump into the .lua file and make custom emotes for your pet when it eats! Don’t be scared about digging into the .lua file, just make sure you’re in the right one. You want to open FeedOMatic_Emotes.lua file. I love customizing stuff, so I made my cat emote a bit different and added a few emotes for the food (any)to the file you can see my changes below - preceded by #### (click to enlarge):

And this turns into :

Enjoy!

BONUS OFFER!!!
Gazmik Fizzwidget’s Hunter’s Helper -it’s very simple, but I really like it. I’m always forgetting to head over to Mania’s Petopia (if you are a hunter, and you haven’t been to either of these sites, please fix that.) and make sure my pets have the most updated skills- and this is where the HH will shine. It shows in the tooltip the pet abilities (if any) the pet has available to learn. Very simple, but very helpful.

If you get a chance, just go check out everything from Gazmik, the site is hilarious and awesome.

I love addons. I really enjoy how Blizzard embraces the technical community and invites them to make addons to help the game get better. I snicker when Blizzard steals the addons and incorporates them into the UI. There are TONS of incredibly useful addons I consider absolute must have addons.

This post is not about them. Well, kinda. This post is for all you hunters out there. There are 3 different addons that I think EVERY hunter should have, no questions asked. The first that I will cover is Kharthus’s Hunter Timers.

KHT gives you a movable bar that will automatically display timers on hunter abilities. If you drop a trap, a countdown starts to let you know how long the trap will last. If you mend your pet, a countdown begins as well. Basically everything a hunter does is comes up in a timer that is easily viewable and understandable.

Personally I got the addon just for tracking traps. Once I installed it, I was really impressed with all that it can do. You can pick which things to time, how the bars look, how they inform you once a timer is up, etc. It also gives you a small grey box (anchor) to grab onto and move around your UI anywhere you want it.
