About Obsidian

Description

Also known as Amethyst Ni (or Amethyst 2), Obsidian is a customizable cast bar replacement for Warhammer based on Quartz.

If you are currently using Amethyst, delete or disable it before installing Obsidian.

Dependencies

Optional

LibSlash is needed to use the slash commands.
LibAddonButton is needed to use the configuration button.

Configuration

The settings can be accessed by clicking the gear icon or by using the command /obsidian

The cast bar can be resized, scaled and moved using the layout editor.

Features

Latency

The first of its kind in Warhammer, Obsidian features a latency meter. Note that this value is calculated since Warhammer doesn't actually keep track of your latency.

The latency is calculated by keeping track of how long it takes for the server to issue a stop casting event after you interrupt a spell by jumping. The latency bar will only be shown and updated when this occurs.

Effect Tracker

Your active buffs and debuffs can be shown for your friendly and hostile targets.

GCD

The global cooldown can be shown in a bar format.

Range

The color of the cast bar can be changed when the target moves in and out of range or line of sight.

  • Added free positions for the effect trackers and global cooldown bar
    • Selecting a free position will allow you to use the layout editor to freely position the object
  • The width of the global cooldown bar can now be modified
    • Percent or exact values can be used
  • Fixed an error where a crafting skill would take control of the cast bar for any subsequent casts of the same ability

    Great addon:-) I sure add some ideas soon:-)

    I just installed it too. I like it but i have some problems. If i make dots on my enemy, only the first dot is shown (with the correct timer). All following dots and styles are unseen (on the same enemy).

    Sorry, english is not my first language. ;)

    Only debuffs cast by you will be shown for the hostile target, and only buffs cast by you will be shown for the friendly target. With that said, in the "Effect Tracker" settings, select "Hostile" and "General" and change "Maximum effects to display".

    Okay. Same problem. If i cast "acid bomb" on my target and one second later "incendiary rounds" (on the same target). I only see acid bomb ticking. I have set the "Maximum effect to display" on 10.

    I most likely found the issue. I mistakenly left a reference to BuffHead in the files, so anyone who is not using it will have an error, only allowing 1 effect to ever be shown, since the error occurs while comparing 2 or more effects.
  • #10
    So far this is a great addon, but do we need to install BuffHead in order to see more than 1 hot/dot on targets?
  • #13
    No. It was just a minor reference error which has been fixed in 1.0.2.

    I just installed it and unfortunately it is not functioning correctly. The normal fill color and failed fill color is not showing up, all I see is the background color during the whole cast. The channel fill is showing up but the bar stays completely filled instead of moving with the cast time. The spell timer is also not showing up.
    All the previously mentioned things do show up in the visual example provided when the configuration menu is open.

    Are you using YakUI? It rewrites the default settings causing that to happen. I will release a fix shortly.
  • #8
    If there´s anything I should be aware of, just let me know. Wouldn´t be aware of YakUI messing with anything Castbar related though.
  • #3
    I'm not using YakUI
