Buttons Flashing

This addon is able to make suggestions of what spell you may want to cast next by flashing on top of the spell buttons.

If you like this addon, please rate it!

  • This addon has functionality added for Warriors, Hunters, Warlocks and Argent Tournament mounts so far.
  • Support has been added for the addons: Bartender, Dominos, Extra Bars, nUI and OpenRDX.

To add code for another class yourself, you may now use the included SpellFlash_TemplateAddon addon as a starting template, and may look at the other addons I have made for the existing class functionality as a reference.

Please let me know what you think! I would appreciate any feedback I can get.

To open the SpellFlash options window, you may use the following slash commands:
/spellflash
/sflash
/sf

I have been trying to use these colors for labeling what kinds of spells are being flashed:
White: Default
Yellow: Limited Time or No Global Cooldown
Purple: AOE or Positional Damage
Blue: AOE Debuff
Orange: Finishing Move
Aqua: Spell Interrupt, Reflect or Dispel
Green: Self Buff or Turn Autocast On
Red: Emergency Mitigation Cooldowns or Turn Autocast Off
Pink: Optional

Will flash a macro if the macro itself is labeled with the desired spell name with the upper case letter F attached to the end of the macro label.
Example: Heroic StrikeF
Example: Commanding ShouF
The spell name must be in the language of the used game client with the capital letter F at the end of it.
If the macro label is renamed,
then you will need to move the macro off of or onto one of the action bars for the change to be detected.
This will not be able to flash more then one spell for each macro since a macro may only have one macro label.

If you have even five or ten dollars to spare, it would mean an awful lot to me and my family.

    Really looks great, but can't get it to work. Updated my Questhelper and also added Auctionator at same time and these work fine. (Before logging in, I checked and only the two mentioned showed up). I even tried the commands: /sf, OR /spellflash, etc only gives me the default error message.

    Forgot to apologize for the misrating (can't rate what I can't use). I accidentally clicked the one star and couldn't get it to drop to nothing).

    I do not currently play the game because of money problems. Someone told me they was working on adding support for Death Knights, but no word in months on how much development has been done for it.

    Is there a way to have Spellflash only indicate when Bloodsurge procs? The rest of the indicators are pretty annoying. (ex. Spellflash: Whirlwind is off cooldown! Me: No Kidding rite? Like, it kinda happens every 8 seconds duh!)

    Doing some sleuthing of my own, I've stumbled upon the "Spellflash_Warrior_Functions" File. I'm wondering if deleting the spells I don't want indicated (between "Function" and "end" of those spells) from the Spellflash file will disable the Spellflash for them?

    Other than that, it's a great addon and I'd donate in a second if I had any dough of my own!

    I guess if all you wanted to flash was the Bloodsurge procs then you could just replace everything in the SpellFlash_Warrior_Scripts.lua file with this:

    if not SpellFlashAddon.isClass("WARRIOR", "player") then return end
    function SpellFlashAddon.Spam.SpellFlash_Warrior()
    if SpellFlashAddon.FlashableButtonFound((GetSpellInfo(1464--[[Slam]]))) and not SpellFlashAddon.isNoDamageCC() and SpellFlashAddon.checkBuff((GetSpellInfo(46916--[[Slam!]]))) and SpellFlashAddon.Castable.Slam(1) then
    if SpellFlashAddon.isActiveEnemy() then
    SpellFlashAddon.FlashActionButtonBySpellName((GetSpellInfo(1464--[[Slam]])), 1,1,0)
    else
    SpellFlashAddon.FlashActionButtonBySpellName((GetSpellInfo(1464--[[Slam]])), 0.9,0.4,0.4)
    end
    end
    end

    I'm a warlock and tried this addon, seems like it's a great idea and time saver (no more watching timers) but I noticed that the Curse of Agony spell is not flashing even when it's being used with no conflicts (that being Curse of Elements or Curse of Doom). Can that issue be corrected?

    I'm a Affliction Warlock and my rotation is:
    Hunt - Corruption - Curse of Agony - Unstable Affliction - Shadow Bolt as filler

    You sure about this? Because I did extensive testing with the curse indicators before I stopped playing WoW months ago, and it was working exactly as expected for me.

    Any chance on making it compatible with Lunar Sphere?

    Reply Report Permalink
  • BigRedBrent said

    A chance only exists if I can figure out how LunarSphere works. I would have to find out what button frame names it uses for the spells in a way that they can be easily found based on the spell or macro name. So far I have found a way to do this for all the other supported addons. Most addons are fairly easy to add support for once I know exactly how they are creating the spell buttons, and if they are storing necessary information about those buttons such as if it is a macro or some other kind of button.

    I love this one, but it affects my DK Interface. I was having movement and d/c problems on my DK, and Blizz said it was Addons. So i checked which ones i had on and shut Spellflash off- the problem cleared right up! It seems to work fine on my Hunter and my Lock, tho. Maybe you could make it so it only loads on appropriate UI's?

    If it is causing problems on one of your characters, you could disable this addon from loading for it at the character selection screen from the addons button.

    Thanks! that is what i did. But it is still one of my faves!

    Hey there
    Just a suggestion. For Hunters when Lock and Load procs, you might want Explosive Shot to stop flashing while one is already active. Just so they dont overwrite eachother.
    Apart from that, it's pretty cool.

    Could you explain this in more detail? I am no longer playing the game because of money problems, but if I am able, I still try to update this addon. So far the time has not been worth my efforts monetarily, but I truly love this addon even though I currently have no use for it at the moment, and would some day like to expand upon it further.

    Does not work with Macaroon bar mod?

    Reply Report Permalink
  • BigRedBrent said

    Not until I can figure out how Macaroon works. I need to know what frame names it uses and a way to find the button details if they are stored in a table.
