About EventAlert

The addon will notify you in the middle of your screen with an icon, name of the spell that has procced, the time left on the proc and will make a subtle sound. EventAlert is also able to handle more than one proc at a time (this option was not available in previous versions).

I am not fond of addons that have very complicated installation and setups. The mod should work on install without any config, but if you wish to change any options use the following command: /ea options
To see a more detailed list of what options are avaiable to the mod, just check out the screenshot of the options pane.

Quick Backstory: I created this addon as a test for myself as my first "from the ground up" addon. Most of my coding in WoW LUA was taking other addons and just fixing them so they work from minor bugs or whatnot.

Anyhow, I needed a mod that was lightweight and did only what I wanted it to do, and that was warn me when one of my spells or talents procced something I needed. Thus, EventAlert was born. There are likely to be bugs, explosions and not so good things that may come from this mod. I'm sorry in advance! If you find a bug, please let me know so I can fix it.

Also, if anyone finds a spell/talent/etc that they want watched, please let me know and I will add it!


Greetings everyone, my name is Menio and I will be taking over the maintenance of this addon from CurtisTheGreat, the original author!

I'll start with an important note: If you used EventAlert before in your current WoW folder, you will need to delete the EventAlert.lua and EventAlert.lua.bak files located at:
\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\ACCOUNTNAME\SavedVariables for this addon to work.

Above is CurtisTheGreat's original description, with updated class abilities.

5.1.10
Bugfix: Attempted to fix an issue with stacking buff tracking.

    I really hopes someone picks this up and makes it great again.
  • #1204
    Hi everyone ! First Curtis I want to thank you again for this great addon and I hope you'll maintain it in the future. I play with EventAlert since a couple of years and this is by far my most useful addon. Thanks.

    Then I also came here cause I'm having trouble. I play holy paladin and there is a bug with the spell denouce especially with 4.2 now it applies a debuff of the same name and when an enemy paladin cast it on me it trigger the alert "denounce".

    I hope you or someone of the community will be able to solve this issue.

  • #1198
    This AddOn doesnt work any more for Paladins :( - Does anyone know/have the fix? This thing is awesome.
  • #1196
    Fix for Elemental Shamans Lightning Shield:

    Open main.lua with an editor and go to line 103 (as described a few comments below how to do that)
    The code should look like that before:

    if (EA_eventType == "SPELL_AURA_APPLIED" or EA_eventType == "SPELL_AURA_APPLIED_DOSE" or EA_eventType == "SPELL_AURA_REFRESH") then
    if (EA_arg7 == UnitName("player")) then

    if (EA_Config.ShowSpellInfo) then
    DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Spell Name: "..EA_arg10.." -- Spell ID: "..EA_arg9);
    end

    change it to the following:

    if (EA_eventType == "SPELL_AURA_APPLIED" or EA_eventType == "SPELL_AURA_APPLIED_DOSE" or EA_eventType == "SPELL_AURA_REFRESH" or EA_eventType == "SPELL_ENERGIZE") then
    if (EA_arg7 == UnitName("player")) then
    if (EA_arg9 == 88765) then EA_arg9 = 324; end
    if (EA_Config.ShowSpellInfo) then
    DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Spell Name: "..EA_arg10.." -- Spell ID: "..EA_arg9);
    end

    I posted the whole block, but as you can see only line 103 changes and line 105 was added, the rest stays unmodified.
    Hope that helps.

    Golaluk, you are a god amongst men.
  • #1195
    Proc and Flash is another add-on that does something similar. I couldn't get this one to work again even with the adjustments listed below. If you are also having problems Proc and Flash may be for you.
  • #1194
    Thank you very much Floppydawg ^^ it's work
  • #1193
    This fix didn't work for me. Any ideas?
  • #1192
    Yes, it works fine after editing the lua file - many thanks to Floppydawg :)

    But another question. The last update for EA was from 01-22-2011....maybe there is no possibility to keep this addon working with the lua file trick in future patches. Anybody knows a similary addon that works so fine and uncomplicated like Event Alert? (I tried "Tell me When" but didn`t really come to a goal with this.....). Hope someone have a tip for me (and sorry for my bad english ;)
