Natur EnemyCastBar

New: WoW2.2 ready (+PTRs), Many big changes to improve NECB's performance and garbage creation AGAIN!, Stack Counter in Icons, New command to request RespawnTimers

other latest additions: Killing Blow - Sound System!, Fix Cooldowns with a pin (Rightclick) to keep them tracked, First Serpentshrine Cavern timers, 25 new spells added!, NECB detects debuffs that proc (poisons, vulnerabilities etc.) now!, Debuffs/Buffs casted by you are read on the fly from your target/focus which updates/triggers the bars!

Description:

Shows Debuffs (e.g. Sheep timers), Casts, Gains, Stuns, DoTs, BossTimers, Cooldowns, Diminishing Returns by lovely colored CastBars - Peace :D Supports 'target' and 'focus'. Recognizes unknown spell casts, stops and delays!

=> Use "/necb" or the minimap icon to call the menue.

Features (see "/necb help" for commands):

• Greatly improved AddOn with regard to garbage creation and CPU usage (version 8.3.7+; compare 8.3.7 with 7.9.8 yourself ;-) )
• Options may be set through a GUI matching the game's design. They are outsourced into a separate AddOn which is loaded on demand.
• Complete control of five shared profiles to fastly load/save and copy your settings!
• Offers a CounterStrike-like sound system that plays several sounds for killing blow events!
• Even unknown spell casts will trigger a bar, thanks to the new WoW 2.x API. Delays and CastStops are detected, too!
• Detects Debuffs/Buffs which return a duration and adapts CastBars to it!
• CastBars are even updated if Debuffs/Buffs are renewed. NECB checks for Resists/Misses, reads stack numbers and applied Debuffs for optimum results.
• Addon splitted into separated load on demand modules
• Automatic RaidSpell broadcasts through AddOns channel! (Users with a latency more than 500ms won't broadcast!)
• The CastBars will be pulled together if there is one bar deleted between others. (If CastBars last longer than 1 second.)
• CastBars will be sorted by color
• CastBar types may be separated into different movable frames!
• Afflictions/ (Spell)Debuffs implemented! This shows you how long "Shackle Undead" or "Polymorph" last!
• Class specific Diminishing Return timers which are only displayed for the class that can use this spell. The DeBuff duration IS recalculated by this timer!
• Detects almost every Stun and triggers a global stun diminishing return timer
• Icons to the left of the CastBars!
• CastBars watch your DoTs!
• Separated FPS Bar updated every frame and a latency bar
• Combopoints are taken into account for many spells
• You see some(!) spell cooldowns and detected cooldowns are stored into a dynamic database for all spells around you. The cooldown is displayed once you target the player/mob and cleared if you change targets.
• The Addon unregisters all Events if it is disabled or if the user gets a loading screen to minimize CPU load!
• Checks the version of group- and guildmembers and also has a button to whisper all users with old versions of NECB to update!
• You may trigger CastBars on your Party/RaidMembers screens. They have to toggle this feature on and receive your input via ".countmin", ".countsec" or ".repeat"
• CastBars with a total time >= 20 seconds will Flash if they reached the last 20% AND their time left is smaller than 10 seconds.
• All Fading/ Flashing of CastBars and the collapse animation of the options frame are FPS independent until the framerate drops below 5(fps).
• You may disable single(!) spells and save/load your selection ('SHIFT + RightClick' feature + see '/necb help')
• A checkbox to disable CastBars for 'gains' (like HoTs or 'Blink') separately.
• A checkbox to flip over the CastBars' order.
• The CastBar's width can be modified!
• You may customize the CastBar Colors!
• A Checkbox to enable 'global Mob outs'. If this one is enabled 'Mob outs' (which are 'Polymorph', 'Shackle Undead' etc.) will trigger a castbar even if the affected mob is NOT your current target.
• A slider to set the space between the CastBars!
• A slider to chose how many CastBars are displayed at once
• Afflictions/Gains which fade off will have their bars deleted! (Even if you don't target your enemy anymore.)
• Raidboss Debuffs supported! E.g. Vaelastrasz (BA), Razorgore (Conflagration), (Shadow of) Ebonroc, Geddon (Living Bomb), (Delusions of) Jin'do...
• A minimap button (movable/ hideable)
• A fullreset-button
• Settings will be saved per character
• Mainly the german client is supported
• Many new Spells added to the database regularly
• Channel parser for NECB's broadcasts
• Info box about the LUA5.1 Garbage Collector status!
• And more...

Supportet spells:

• All supported spells are listed in NECB's checkbox tooltips ;-)

These are not bugs:

• Spells won't trigger CastBars in many cases if you are not near enough for them to appear in your combatlog (e.g. Chromaggus). Use "/necb setrange cmax" or "necb setrange allmax" to increase the range.
• Spell cooldowns: Only spells with a castime or "gains" work. And no, I won't add more spell-checks to support those spells. (Too many complications :/ )
• If Mobs with a Debuff have the same name, it is (mostly) enough to have one Mob's debuff (or death) fade to clear the bar even without a target!
• If someone does not inflict your current target, but has debuffed a Mob with the name name, a bar will appear
• Conclusion: Expect strange bar behaviors if there are mobs with the same name :D That lies mostly in the nature of the combatlog!
• It works best if the same known debuffs are only casted on one mob if there are more mobs with the same name in combatlog-range ;-)
• Remember, some combatlog-messages (and with it the castbar clear or popup) only appear if you are very close to your enemy! (E.g. desheep.)
