Another Clean Curves layout

Summary

IceHUD is another HUD addon in the spirit of DHUD, MetaHUD, and others. It is written completely in the Ace2 framework.

What it is

Player and target health and mana bars, casting and mirror bars, pet health and mana bars, druid mana bar in forms, extensive target info, ToT display, and more

What it is not

A complete unit frame replacement. IceHUD has no party/raid/battleground support.

Short feature list

  • Lots of different textures to make the HUD look like you want
  • Class-specific bars such as combo point counters, sunder application counters, lacerate application counters, Slice'n'dice timers, druid mana trackers, and more
  • Target-of-target bars, Crowd Control timers, Range Finders, Threat meters, and plenty of other helpful modules
  • Lots of DogTag-supported strings for extreme customizability
  • Cast lag indicator (optional)
  • Alpha settings for in combat, target selected, etc.
  • Highly configurable (can totally re-arrange all bars, change text display, etc.)

Slash commands

/icehud - opens the configuration UI to tweak any setting

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do I hide the default Blizzard player and target unit frames?
Type /icehud, expand the "Module Settings" section, click "Player Health" or "Target Health," and check "Hide Blizzard Frame" (NOTE: before version 1.3.7, the player/target unitframes were hidden by default. Follow the same steps to enable them if desired)

2. How do I turn off click-targeting and menus on the player bar?
Type /icehud, expand the "Module Settings" section, click "Player Health," un-check "Allow click-targeting." Note that as of v1.3, there is now an option to allow click-targeting out of combat, but turn it off while in combat.

3. How do I hide the HUD or change its transparency based on combat, targeting, etc.?
Type /icehud, check the "Transparency Settings" section. Nearly any combination of states should be available for tweaking.

4. Even if the rest of the HUD is transparent, the health percentages seem to show up. Why?
Type /icehud, expand the "Module Settings" section, expand "Player Health," click "Text Settings," look for options about keeping the lower/upper text blocks alpha locked. If the text is alpha locked, it will not drop below 100%, otherwise it respects its bar's transparency setting. Player Health/Mana, Target Health/Mana, and pet bars should all have these options.

5. Is there any way to see combo points for Rogues and Druids or sunder applications for Warriors?
Yes, check the "combo points" and "sunder count" modules in the /icehud configuration panel. (Note that these modules may not show up if you're not of the appropriate class to see them. They should be present for their respective classes, however.) There is also a "DruidMana" module for feral druids in forms.

6. Any plans for a range finder?
Why yes! One was added in version 1.3.

7. What's this thing at the top of the player's cast bar and threat bar? It's darker than the rest of the bar. (and may be colored red)
That's the Cast Lag Indicator (or the aggro-pull warning for the Threat bar) that shows you when you can start casting a new spell and still be able to finish the current one (based on your lag to the server). You can disable this in the Player Cast Bar settings under the /icehud configuration screen.

8. Is there a bar that shows breath underwater and if so, how can I adjust it?
Yes, this is called the MirrorBarHandler in the module settings portion of the /icehud configuration. It's called that because it mirrors casting bar behavior, displays more than just breathing (fatigue is one example), and that's what Blizzard calls it. It can be moved/adjusted/resized/etc. as with any other module.

9. There's a long green bar that sometimes shows up below everything else. What is it?
That would be the TargetOfTarget module. That module is available for people who don't want the full ToT health/mana bars, but do want some sort of ToT representation on the screen. It's configurable through the /icehud module settings.

10. IceHUD needs a bar or counter for buff/debuff X!
Good news: as of v1.5, you can create as many bars and counters for any buffs or debuffs you want! Type /icehud and click either "Create custom bar" or "Create custom counter". This will create a module named MyCustomBar# (where # is a number based on how many custom bars you've made so far) or MyCustomCounter#. You can then expand the Module Settings group and modify all sorts of settings on the new custom module. It is highly recommend that you rename the bar as soon as possible to avoid any confusion later. These custom modules are full-featured enough to replace some of the class-specific ones that are already there, but I will leave them so as not to upset people who are already using them.

11. How do I turn off the resting/combat/PvP/etc. icons on the player or target?
Type /icehud, expand Module Settings, expand PlayerHealth (or TargetHealth for targets), click Icon Settings. You can control every aspect of the icons there including location, visibility, draw order, etc.

    Hi,
    this is a very nice mod, very good on resources too in my opinion.

    I miss one little thing that i do see on the screenshots that the author posted: i can't see how many seconds are left on buff/debuff icons.
    For example : when i apply mangle, a 12 sec debuff, I'd like to see 12,11,10.9.and so on on the mangle icon in the target info module.

    Could it be a problem with some other mods?

    Nice addon but hard to set it up so it is nicely setup and practical. Anyone have a setup for a warlock or a hunter that looks nice ?

    Is there any way we can reduce the amount of damage this thing does to memory? Cool hud, very expansive in accordance to memory.

    This mod doesn't take as much memory as you think, it's the libraries that it loads. Try running disembedded to get the true footprint. If you really want to make it lean, remove all of the textures except the one you really care about and turn off all the modules you aren't using. This mod by itself does not use a lot of memory, but DogTag and a couple of other libraries do. If this mod is alphabetically the first one installed with the highest version of a library, then it will get blamed for that library's memory usage. This is just how the ace framework works.

    Is there anyway to get rid of the buffs and debufs under the bars? and is there a way to desable the cast bar?

    /icehud => module settings => targetinfo => un-check "enable" will get rid of buffs/debuffs. alternatively, set the number of buffs per row to 0 to keep the other features.
    /icehud => module settings => cast bar/target cast bar => un-check "enable" to get rid of the cast bars.

    After dinking around with this thing I've finally learned what it's capable of and omg is it nice!
    Stop reading these comments and DL now it is extremely functional and one of the only add ons out there that is aesthetically pleasing.
    I got sick of how ugly Xperl was and gave this a try and do not regret it at all

    i just got this addon and im having alot of fun with it. currently my target health bar is green and changes color as it loses health. is there a way to make it so the target health bar stays red all the time?

    Reply Report Permalink
  • Parnic said 

    /icehud => modules => target health => un-check "color bar by health %". Either check "color NPC's by hostility" or set the TargetHealth color to red.

    Reader, if you wonder, this addon is a must to have, no need anymore to keep looking up/down for the hotkey resets and keep an eye on the mana/health.


    Q? to the author please:

    1) Is there a way to hide completely the bars when they are full or like when out of combat.

    2) Is there a way to hide the mana bar text (or even better the whole bar) when shape shifted as a druid? I set the mana bar and the druid "mana" bar in the same spot and the text ovelaps

    3) Is there a way to copy all the setting from one character on one account to another character on another account on a different PC?
