Exterminatus Rainbow Reticle  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 0.9
by: Mitazaki [More]
Exterminatus.eu Presents Rainbow Reticle

Author: Mitazaki
Guild: Exterminatus ( Ebonheart Pact )

NEW in v0.9
> Show names for other targets in the world <
> Health Min/Max numbers and Percentages <


The Rainbow Reticile Add on with help you identify targets in game by coloring your reticle certain colors depending on what you are looking at.

In addition to this the character name of friends, guild mates and grouped players will be shown above the reticle.

This will make it easy to identify friends and guild members when there is quite a few players around and should make PVPing in groups a little easier too.

Hostile Mobs
Neutral Mobs
Friends
Guild Members
Group Members
0.9
- Added Health numbers and health percentages to right of the reticle. This can be enabled or disabled.
- Added level indicator next to name. This also can be toggled on or off.
- Tweaked the option menu.
- You can now toggle on and off name plates for different types of targets.

0.2
Fixed a problem with the directory structure. This was causing bugs with those that didn't already use certain libraries in other addons. Thx jnzooger.

0.13
Minor Fixes and changes

0.12
This update is mainly to address some problems with the addon and get it working properly. I'm still kinda ill but will be working on finishing off some new features that were suggested.
  • Text should no longer be display when looking at stuff.
  • Guild tags removed. I felt it was pointless to indicate the target was in your guild then show you the guild you are in anyway.
  • Added Groups to color and can now show group player names
  • Started adding options in the settings menu. For now you can disable all text and just use the colors or you can disable group names. More will be added with next main patch.

0.12
Fixed text not being removed when switching to menus etc.

0.1
Addon released, some improvements planned

Exclamation Similar Problem

Love the addon. But I am having a similar problem. After joining a 3rd guild I now see the name of the guild whenever I don't have something targeted just constantly up. Hope it gets fixed soon!

Bug Report

This is... special.

For some reason, when I look at ANYTHING other than mobs, it's giving me this:



Pink triangle?? WTF?

Walls, floor, table? Pink triangle!

Issue only appeared for me after joining the 2nd or 3rd guild. In one guild, I never saw it.
The guild name that I always see is my 1st guild.

I'm in guild (in 2 guilds) and it shows the name of my 2nd guild and only if my target clear.

But I really start loving this addon, please, fix this

Hi, I have the same issue. otherwise pretty cool Mod!
Are you in a guild, or if you are how many guilds are you in ?
Patch is coming soon to add groups and fix some problems.

Will be released before the end of tomorrow (5th of April)

Will Include
  • Added option menu which will save your settings for Rainbow Reticle
  • Group Names and Group colors
  • Reticle Resizing Option
  • Option to disable all target names
  • Option to enable other target names ( hostiles, neutrals, critters etc. )
  • Options to disable or enable names for certain targets
  • REMOVED - Guild Names. I feel that displaying guild names is mostly pointless as it's only ever going to be a guild you are already in. The reticle color will still change to green any for guild mates and by default will show just their character name.

That's odd, I'll have a look for any errors in the code.

Default reticle is too annoying, at least for me.
1) Will add to my list for next patch
2) It is possible but will require a bit of time, maybe at some point

Our guild created 4 guilds for banking and filtering purposes, and currently everytime I mouse over a guild member, I see the green reticle, their name in green, and 3 of our guilds listed under them in green.

I know they are a part of our guild via the green name, I would just love to get rid of all the guild names as it is quite a bit of text.

Thanks for the consideration and the amazing mod!
To remove guild names from Rainbow Reticle do the following easy changes:

-------------------------------------------------
OPEN RainbowReticle.lua
-------------------------------------------------
Find:
Code:
if isguildno == 0 then
	isguildno = 1
	isguildstring = GetUnitName('reticleover') .. "\n" .. GetGuildName(xguildid)
	RainbowReticleGuildName:SetColor(.2,1,.2)
else
	isguildstring = isguildstring .. "\n" ..GetGuildName(xguildid)
end
Change to:
Code:
if isguildno == 0 then
	isguildno = 1
	isguildstring = GetUnitName('reticleover')
	RainbowReticleGuildName:SetColor(.2,1,.2)
else
	--isguildstring = isguildstring .. "\n" ..GetGuildName(xguildid)
end
I will make a more perma solution with an update but that should sort you for now.

Yeh I'm aware that a bug would crop up and only show like 3 guilds max due to dimensions which I forgot to test and will fix that.

I will also add your suggestion to my list and get it sorted in next day I think.

Glad you find the addon useful.
