A simple and compact addon for Shaman to keep track of relevant cooldowns more easily. This was originally created as an exercise in addon authoring, but it came out kinda cool. It's essentially intended to be a bit more in depth than TotemTimer's system, but simpler and more compact than Shock and Awe.
Three vertical bars keep track of Stormstrike, Earth Shock, and Lava Lash for Enhancement; Chain Lightning, Flame Shock, and Lava Burst for Elemental; Riptide, Wind Shock, and Earth Shield target/charges for Restoration. A main bar beneath keeps track of Maelstrom Weapon procs for Enhancement, Flame Shock duration for Elemental, and Tidal Waves for Restoration. Bars beneath these keep track of longer cooldowns and uptimes of Feral Spirit and Shamanistic Rage for Enhancement, Elemental Mastery for Elemental, and Nature's Swiftness and Tidal Force for Restoration.
Check out the screenshot to see what it looks like. It should all be fairly self-explanatory once it's up and running.
NOTE: There have been some people that have been confused as to the location on the MW/FS/TW tracker. It's to the right of the shield tracker. It's the only unlabeled bar. :)
For options, type /fullmoon or /fm.
Additional features:
- Red-out of out of range abilities
- Shield tracker that turns red as it nears depletion
- Simple, non-annoying alert sound for MWx5 (can be turned off)
- Out of combat fading
- GCD bar
- PvP totem timers
- Magma Totem and Mana Tide Totem timer
- Hex/trinket timer
- Can be enabled/disabled based on spec
- Automatically adjusts itself when you respec or swap between dual specs

Installation Guide
- Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
- StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
- Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start World of Warcraft
- Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)
When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.
If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.
