Curse

Hi!  Yes, by default Hear Kitty will still play sounds even with in-game sounds off.  (There's also an option to have Hear Kitty sound effects respect those settings if you prefer.)

Rest assured that as soon as add-ons are allowed on beta I'll make sure that mine are all working properly.  :)  Right now I haven't seen any reason why any of my mods wouldn't work mostly-fine with the "enable out-of-date addons" box checked once they start allowing them, but I'll get to work as soon as I can.

...unless that happens to be right after Diablo III launches or something.

I'm sorry, I completely missed this comment.  You can now create and share your own sound packs for Hear Kitty as add-ons.  Replacing the 0-5.ogg files in Interface\AddOns\HearKitty\Symphony should work after restarting the game, but you'll lose your custom sounds the next time that you update Hear Kitty.  You can make a sound pack pretty easily by looking at the Readme file that comes with Hear Kitty and looking at the section called "Developing your own sound packs."  You just need a basic text editor like Notepad, and it should only take a couple minutes beyond the time you spend actually producing the sound effects.

Thanks!  That's a good suggestion.  I'll definitely look into it.  Realistically, I might not get around to it until after the current tier set is no longer relevant though.  :-P

In the meantime, I'm using a super-simple addon called TargetPercent that tells me the percentage health of the boss without having to keep the other numbers visible or set to percentages (I like all of the other numbers at their defaults: raw numbers, only shown on hover, but I want enemy health percentages shown at all times).  It makes those last few seconds really nerve-wracking as you see that Rip has 2 seconds to go and the boss is at 60.8% health, but I'm sure that overall it's increased my DPS.  :)

Hi!  Thanks for the suggestion.  Yes, this is definitely something that I'd like to do for a future version.  Unfortunately it's a little less straightforward since the game doesn't tell addons about combo points that weren't generated due to combo points already being "full," but I could build up and maintain a list of all of the abilities that should generate combo points and then determine if any were used when the player already had five.  I'd probably start with feral druids, get that working well, and then start adding similar features for rogues and then other classes and specs over time.

Hear Kitty 1.3.1 is marked for use with WoW 4.3.  Maybe Curse was just a little behind; it shows up as 4.3 for me now.  (Both 1.3 and 1.3.1 will work fine on either WoW 4.2 or 4.3 though.)  If you use the "out of date addons" checkbox then the only difference between the two versions is a minor spellsteal fix.

Hope that helps!
