Introducing ShadowlandsUI By Hodag

Recommended Posts

2vmRhFJ.jpeg

Hodag has created a Shadowlands-inspired User Interface that you can download on WoW Interface, and in this post, we are looking at it in more detail.

ShadowlandsUI comes with custom target frame, health/player frames, masque skin, background button art, status bars, border, map, fonts, nameplates, cast bar, and more.

You can see for yourself how the UI looks like in action (party/raid layouts included).

Quick Demo

Included Addons

  • Pitbull Unit Frames to configure unit frames, cast bar, xp/rep bar, and XP bar.
  • Weak Auras to provide custom art for the unit frames, cast bars, XP/rep bar, and “button holder” art.
  • Plater to overhaul the look of the nameplates and use the custom assets included in the UI.
  • Glass to update the look of the chatbox and enable the custom font.
  • SexyMap to update the look of the map and keep it consistent with the Shadowlands theme.
  • Masque + Masque: Shadowlands skin to skin the buttons for your action bars.
  • Bartender4 to manage your bars.
  • Slightly tweaked Details! to align with custom fonts/statusbars used in the interface.
  • BetterDamage to change the damage/healing font to align with the font used in the interface.
  • MoveAnything to move a few default blizzard UI elements around to accommodate for the UI layout.
  • SharedMedia to house some of the custom assets.
  • Slightly tweaked OmniCC to work nicely with the Masque skin.
  • Bagnon to declutter the bag icons and well its an essential addon regardless.
  • Reflux is used to help profile switching of the UI between characters and specs.
  • NibProfileLoader is used to automate profile switching upon load.

Installation Guide

  1. Backup your current Interface and WTF folders by renaming them Interface_backup and WTF_backup. These are located in your WoW directory (e.g. C:/Program Files/World of Warcraft/_retail_/)
  2. Extract the ShadowlandsUI Interface and WTF folders to your /_retail_/ directory
  3. In the newly extracted WTF folder, rename the following folders to match the names in your WTF_backup folder:
    ACCOUNTNAME (usually a # or account name if your account is older)
    REALM NAME (name of the realm your character resides)
    CHARACTER NAME (name of the character you wish to inherit ShadowlandsUI – you only need to list one. Read the FAQ if you want to use it on multiple characters)
  4. Launch WoW, choose the character you renamed the folder to and ensure all addons are selected and “Load out of date addons” is checked.
  5. Launch the game and click “Yes” when it asks if you wish to load ShadowlandsUI at the top of the screen. The interface will reload and you will be looking at the ShadowlandsUI.
  6. Ensure all nameplates are turned to “on” by hitting Ctrl+V.
  7. Right click the map and click on the button towards the bottom that says “Use global profile”
  8. *(if required) As we are in pre-patch land, a lot of addons are still under development and some settings get wonky. If you notice any LUA errors after install, reload the UI. If you notice a semi-transparent black square in the middle of your screen or on the top left of your health bar, type /pitbull and navigate to layout editor → Shadowlands Player → Indicators → Totems and uncheck enable. Do this same thing for the layout “Shadowlands Cast.”

    ShadowlandsUI is now installed and configured properly. Make sure to keep all addons updated as you normally would – especially if you get weird errors as you install the UI, as you probably need to update the addons that were included in the package. If you want to copy your macros and hotkeys from your backup folder, check the FAQ.

Head over to WoW Interface for FAQ and to download the UI!

So when I use my normal WTF and Interface folders, i can see my addons, but as soon as I copy the UI folders in, and change the other ones to _backup, I dont see any addons anymore. I have changed the filenamesin the WTF folder to match the _backup, but still nothing. Anyone know of this, and has a solution?

Looks amazing in game as well, it gives the feeling of a fresh new game and while it works with most classes almost perfect, there are small issues with spell bars and balance druid spec. Where bar one shifts into Moonkin spell bar, with this UI it doesn't, note here that the bar 1 do changes for cat form and bear form.

An other issue for me is with the key binds and spell bars. I use no more than 30 binds and most of my action bars were full with spells, some macros, pots and prof icons, mounts as well (mostly mounts were unbound). I had utilised 99% of the spell space given. What happened after I installed this UI : Bar 1 shows my key binds as before but with the issue mentioned on my Moonkin, were it was left top bar (horizontal one) have disappeared and the spell icons along with them. Pressing the binds I had on those bars make the spells happen still, but no visual. I tried to find how to customise all of this and so far 0 luck. This is because, (if my understanding is correct) its a blend of many overlapping add-ons, and for me what's missing is a universal control panel. This UI feels incomplete. I look forward to a more complete version.

Moving from BenikUI (elvui edit) to try this, installation was quick and easy, also for multiple characters. Only thing I had to do over was my keybinds and skills on action bars because in my previous UI I was using different bars than what bartender uses so even swapping over savedvariables, it wouldn't have worked.

Only things I'm not too keen on atm is that I feel the nameplates could be cleaner and maybe a bit scaled up and show health numbers or % out of the box. The other thing being is that the buffs are too far tucked away and I think they need to be brough out a bit more and maybe add timers to them.

Would be nice to also have this come packaged with a scrolling combat text rather than the in-game one, something a bit clearer.
And have you thought about possibly replacing some blizz interface textures with your own custom ones? I guess it depends if uses a lot more resources ? im guessing this pack is intended to be lightweight.

Overall this is super awesome and looks really sleek and refreshing to see someone do something that's not elvui or tukui ? Thanks for making this ?

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
