Thanks for the mod Valve!

I just started trying it out last night and I have to say, in my opinion, this is something that should have been part of the in-game ui from the start.

Hey, thanks for the comment!

Technically, it is part of the standard UI for the action bar but is just disabled by default. The addon just enables the hidden setting.

I find it strange that the code has been left in but isn't accessible through any of the in-game interface menus. Maybe one day they will add it in the future.

Post Global Cooldown on "Action Bar" ??

Maybe I use one too many add-ons. Mostly I use Sorcerer's Helper which shows countdowns for active spells. I have been able to locate its output so that it doesn't interfere with the Action Bars and output from Combat Metrics. On occasion I've used Srendarr's Buff and Debuff Tracker as well, or instead of one of the others. Keeping track of which one displays what and where can be a bit of a task.

Regardless, I have not been able to identify the Show Global Cooldown output. Exactly where is it displayed?

It enables a setting that displays an animation to show the global cooldown for each skill on the default action bar. It's possible that you're using an add-on that overrides this functionality, or you're expecting this addon to do something different.

Are you using any add-ons that replace numerous elements of the action bar? I believe LUI has a similar option to this.

And sorry for the late response; I haven't been on here too much!

Thanks,

Danny

I will update them when I have access to my computer and some free time -- which should hopefully be soon.

I actually already have a minor update for GuildShrines which I was originally going to release before the patch but I guess that didn't happen!

Is there a way to combine Action Duration Reminder with that addon here?

Hi,

Ty for this addon, but I seem to have an issue. TLDR: this addon causes big FPS drops.

So, I've been having big fps drops for a while and I always thought it was the game being buggy, even though I have a very solid PC. I spent weeks reading guides and making all kinds of tweaks to get better FPS, to no avail. Then, I tried changing options and nvidia settings, and turning off some addons that I hear can cause FPS issues. I tried to narrow down the problem and to my surprise it was this addon.

Basically, whenever I use a skill, my FPS immediately drops by 20-30 FPS for a few seconds. This is very noticeable in large or crowded fights since FPS is normally low in such situations (around 40-60 fps), so any FPS drops from this addon will cause it to drop to 10-20 FPS, making the game stutter badly.

It is visible by enabling the ingame FPS meter and I was able to reproduce the problem:
- I enabled all addons except this one, no FPS drop.
- I disabled all addons expect this one, I got the usual FPS drop.

I hope there is a way to fix this.

I neither have this problem nor could I reproduce it. The addon works perfectly fine^^

Beware, this addon causes absolutely massive framerate problems. Expect framerate to drop in half while GCD animation is processing.

Not 100% sure. But I've also experienced bad lag during the animation of GCD, but after a reloadui it was gone. But since I dont watch my action bar anymore I stopped using the addon now.

I used to have FPS issues with this addon months ago before I took a break.

I recently returned to the game and reinstalled it. I just wanted to say that I've NOT had any stuttering issues or FPS problems since.

Thanks

Anybody know any addon that does a similar thing, but at another place?
I dont like watching my skill bar, bc I might move my cursor off-target, or miss important mechanics...

So just a visual effect on reticle or somewhere else would be cool

Great Idea but does not work for me

I love the idea, but it looks like this conflicts with LUI. I do not see the animation.
