This AddOn is discontinued for now, as i stopped playing WoW completely. There's a chanche i'll come back and update it again in Dragonflight, but that's not certain.

CUI is a replacement for the default Blizzard UI!

The goal is to make it extremely customizable, user friendly and lower the impact it has on your games performance as much as possible!

This UI Package is not yet finished. Problems are expected!

• Added system that tracks all of your item counts and currencies across all characters! Counts are shown in item tooltips!
Gold also is tracked, so you don't need a bag AddOn for this - simply mouseover the money text in your vanilla bags!
• Added option to disable the entire actionbar module
• Added option to disable the entire unitframe module

• Added Titan Residuum and Echoes of Ny'alotha Reward Amount to the Mythic Plus Frame. On Mouseover, you're also shown the amount of rewarded currency for up to level 25. This feature depends on data from the community and most likely will take some time to be fully up to date in the future, if there's currency being rewarded.
• Added Tooltip Background Color option (Instead of just an Alpha Slider)
• Added Option to disable the Tooltip Module completely. This option does NOT require an reload!

• [Devs Only] Added API for easy Item Tooltip Scanning. See Modules/Core/TooltipScanning.lua

Bugfixes

• Resolved an Extra Actionbutton tainting issue, which led to it not showing up
• Experimental Fix for Error when opening the Mover/Anchor mode. Will have to monitor this change, as it potentially could cause taint issues
• The Talking Head and Battlerez Frames now snap to other frames when moved outside of mover mode
• Item Ref Tooltips (From Chats) no longer should snap to the tooltip anchor point
• Fixed Tooltip background randomly being in an blue-ish color
• Fixed Tooltip border rapidly changing color on the first few frames after it shows up
• Fixed an issue that would cause power bars to not being updated properly on death or revival
• Additionally to the fix above, incorrect power bar values now also SHOULD be fixed. Will have to monitor this.
• Fixed Classpower Segment Background Color option not having any effect
• Fixed Mover positioning issues due to scaling
• Fixed Totem Bar Timer behaviour when the time goes below 0
• Fixed Actionbar Cooldown Text still being shown when the cooldown already finished
• Fixed Autoseller for situations where lots of items are vendored at once. Before, there would occur an error, that interferes with the selling process.
• Fixed global DB data being written to each individual profile. Cleanup does happen automatically and will reduce the SavedVariables file size quite a bit
• Fixed actionbar cooldown being displayed twice when the Blizzard Option for Button Countdowns is enabled
• Fixed visual actionbar issues when not using Masque
• Fixed actionbar Hotkey Texts being misaligned on login
• Fixed an interference with the AddOn "BetterWardrobe", which caused the helmet toggle to stop working correctly
• Fixed an issue with Masque, where CUI couldn't reposition the actionbar hotkeys anymore
• Fixed stancebar not updating properly when the number of displayed stances changed

Currently planned for Core

  • A unit classification texture for an actual visual representation of elites, bosses and rares [Like the default UI ones]
  • [...] And way more [...]

Most of those below are way beyond the planned core functionality of this AddOn, as they are really ambitious, so there will be no TBA! 

But they for sure will just come when the core is finished!

Planned

  • Create your own custom unitframes on the fly
  • Also custom layout-frames with custom behaviour and functions
  • A music player system with custom conditionals
  • The option to stylize individual frames (even blizz ones!)
  • Adding custom textures and placing them anywhere you like
  • Options for round castbars
  • Personal optional notifications when something important happened [I.e.: A Tank dies in your raid group]
  • An optional performance optimizer (changes graphics settings according to a fps target and your average framerate over X seconds)

Currently known issues

• Group Unitframes sometimes show the wrong unit name/health/power data. Could not replicate yet, but is on critical watchlist
• The Unit Dummy mode somehow intereferes with the new group header system. This one's also categorized as critical. Please just use the separate "Toggle" button in the individual group unitframe options until it's fixed.
• Health Absorb does not differentiate between damage or heal absorb (Not a bug technically, just not implemented yet)

Disclaimer

This AddOn still has a pretty good way to go until its core functionality is finished, so expect issues or missing options for things you'd like to change!

Also, i'm developing this AddOn on a 4K display. So most things are way too big for a Full HD monitor.

Until i can come up with a proper fix for this, you have to deal with it one time and set everything up (profile).
