Spell Timer and Temp buff windows

[Kraal of BDA]

I'm currently using DragonwulfUI SpellTimer window. It works well but it would be nice if it were modified to be able to add spells to track for individual classes vs. having 15 available slots shared between all of your toons. Sort of like Profit's quickcast raid buttons are.

Would also love to see a temp buff window that could track what temp buffs were on you. Same basic idea as the spell timer window only it would show for example, when the dirge in your group has CoB up. Or whenever the Illy hits Timewarp it would pop up in your window with a countdown timer.

I don't know squat about writing the scripts for this stuff, but it seems like it would just be a tweak to the spell timer window to have it monitor your effects window for whatever buffs you entered the names for in the xml file.

Use multi-character spell timer

From what I've read, alot of people are having issues with it since DoV. Besides that, I don't really want to use a hotbar for it.

In that case I don't see why you could create a few xtras of it naming them successively, making sure the correct includes are did, and changing the call window on each one to the one you need.
eg:
<dragowulf_spell_cleric_window.xml>
<dragowulf_spell_settings_cleric.txt>
and the associated includes.

I use the mulit-char one daily for raiding on mulitple healers and haven't had any issues what so ever from it, but the above should work though it might add some load time, or possibly lag. Haven't tried it before to be honest.

Thx for the suggestion, but still not what I'm looking for. Not really in the mood to swap text files and relog everytime I switch toons.

With this method you wouldn't have to just click a macro to launch the appropriate window.

Spell Effects and Detrimental shows the icons of spells.
You may find IconRect and IconSource of each spell, and... )

In the eq2ui_mainhud_effects.xml we have:

<Icon BackgroundTint="#000000" IconStyle="/IconStyles.effect" MouseOverColor="#FFFF00" Name="Effect1" Size="24,24" TreatAsButton="true"/>

But it means:

<Icon BackgroundTint="#000000" IconStyle="/IconStyles.effect" IconResource="/images/icons/xxx.dds" IconRect="x,x,x,x" MouseOverColor="#FFFF00" Name="Effect1" Size="24,24" TreatAsButton="true"/>

For example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Page ... Name="Effects" ... >

<DataSource Name="EffectsDS">
<Data Name="1" IconResource="/images/icons/icon_ss10.dds126,42,168,84" Text="Spell 1"/>
<Data Name="2" IconResource="/images/icons/icon_ss6.dds210,0,252,42" Text="Spell 2"/>
</DataSource>
<Dropdownbox BackdropControl="true" DataSource="EffectsDS" Name="EffectsDropdown" RowTemplate="/Templates.dropdowntemplate" Location="22,3" PackLocation="left,top" PackSize="a,f" Size="108,15" ScrollExtent="108,15" Style="/dropdownlist.dropdown_default" UserScrollable="true"/>

<Text Location="5,5" Name="Trigger" TextColor="#FF0000" Font="/TextStyles.Normal.NormalStyle" Size="100,28" ShadowStyle="/ShadowStylesNew.Outline.style" Visible="false">Bingo!</Text>
<Text Name="Check" DynamicData="/GameData.General.BytesPerSecond" OnTextChanged="

......
COND45=Parent.EffectsDropdown.SelectedItem.IconResource == Parent.Volume.Effect45.IconResource ## Parent.Volume.Effect45.IconRect

TCOND1=COND1 &amp;&amp; Parent.Volume.Effect1.Visible
TCOND2=COND2 &amp;&amp; Parent.Volume.Effect2.Visible
......
TCOND45=COND45 &amp;&amp; Parent.Volume.Effect45.Visible

Parent.Trigger.Visible=TCOND1 || TCOND2 || TCOND3 || TCOND4 || TCOND5 || TCOND6 || TCOND7 || TCOND8 || TCOND9 || TCOND10 || TCOND11 || TCOND12 || TCOND13 || TCOND14 || TCOND15 || TCOND16 || TCOND17 || TCOND18 || TCOND19 || TCOND20 || TCOND21 || TCOND22 || TCOND23 || TCOND24 || TCOND25 || TCOND26 || TCOND27 || TCOND28 || TCOND29 || TCOND30 || TCOND31 || TCOND32 || TCOND33 || TCOND34 || TCOND35 || TCOND36 || TCOND37 || TCOND38 || TCOND39 || TCOND40 || TCOND41 || TCOND42 || TCOND43 || TCOND44 || TCOND45" Visible="false"/>

<VolumePage AbsorbsInput="false" CellCount="1,5" CellPadding="0,0" CellSelectable="false" CellSize="24,24" Location="3,3" MinimumScrollExtent="24,120" Name="Volume" PackSize="a,a" Size="144,120" VolumeFill="left2right_down">
<Icon BackgroundTint="#000000" IconStyle="/IconStyles.effect" MouseOverColor="#FFFF00" Name="Effect1" Size="24,24" TreatAsButton="true"/>
......
<Icon BackgroundTint="#000000" IconStyle="/IconStyles.effect" MouseOverColor="#FFFF00" Name="Effect45" Size="24,24" TreatAsButton="true"/>
</VolumePage>
<Page AbsorbsInput="false" BackgroundOpacity="1.000" Enabled="false" GetsInput="false" Name="WC_Frame" PackSize="a,a" RStyleDefault="/FrameStyles.single_pixel" Size="150,126"/>
<Page AbsorbsInput="false" BackgroundOpacity="1.000" Enabled="false" GetsInput="false" Name="WC_Backdrop" PackSize="a,a" Size="150,126"/>
</Page>

So we may trigger specific detrimental effects when they shows up in Detrimental window... )

You mean based on the icon? There are a lot of overlapping icons for buffs and debuffs unfortunately. And holy crap that is a long conditional.
