Wow Using Spell Alerts And Addons
WoW Addons
The decision to allow users to modify their World of Warcraft experience through the use of custom addons was one of the best the developers at Blizzard ever made. The addon community surrounding the game has flourished, and the customizability of the interface and ability to craft and implement useful tools is one of the things that keeps players continually coming back for more.
The WoW addon process can seem complicated, especially to a more casual gamer not accustomed to modifying their games the way PC players have for years. For those new to the idea, our Introduction to WoW Addons provides a general overview of the types of addons and their different functions.
If you’re ready to dive into the world of WoW addons, but just not sure where to get started, our article covering Where to Find WoW Addons has a rundown on two of the best places online to find programs to modify your game.
Installing WoW Addons
This addon was created to be a lightweight replacement for Power Auras but has since introduced more functionalities while remaining efficient and easy to use. An intuitive and powerful configuration interface; Custom textures including all textures from Power Auras and Blizzard's spell alerts.
- SpellSteal alert/addon Sometimes when fighting a group of mobs several targets may have buffs like void shell or stone bulwark. Obviously the mob i am targeting i can see the buff appear on the target frame and i immediately spellsteal it.
- It is SOUND ALERT addon leads you to become GLADIATOR, so having the name GladiatorlosSA. This addon will alert spells using customized voice.

——————————————————–
SoundAlerter is an addon that alerts players via sound when enemies are casting or have used certain abilities aswell as a tracker for when abilities have worn off (eg. divine shield down, deterrence down)

- Supports Customisation of where you want the addon enabled.

- The “Target and Focus only” option also alert you if debuffs that have afflicted you from players that aren’t your target or focus

http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/831…alerter444.jpgSlash commands
Slash commands for SoundAlerter will be /soundalerter, /salerter, or /sa (provided SpellAlerter or SunnArt isn’t enabled)
1. Click Zip
2. Extract the SoundAlerter Folder (inside the trololol-SoundAlerter3.3.5a-xx folder) into your WoW folder/Interface/Addons/
1. If an update is mentioned on the forum, the easiest way to update the addon is by deleting the SoundAlerter folder in your wow folder/interface/addons- make sure you have saved any mp3s, etc that you have added
2. Download the addon again and place it where the old folder was
SpellAlerter – Text alerter for Spells casted
Gladius – Arena frame addon that alerts when cooldowns are used
LoseControl – Spell Icon popup in middle of screen when CC’d
Icicle – Addon that shows enemy cooldowns on top of their nameplate
Help! The addon doesn’t work!
If the addon doesn’t work, Make sure:
1. You have went to https://github.com/trolololol/SoundAlerter-3.3.5a
2. Clicked Zip and fully have downloaded the zip archive
3. Unzipped the SoundAlerter folder (inside the trololol-SoundAlerter3.3.5a-xx folder) into your WoW folder/Interface/Addons/
4. Made sure it’s enabled on your addon list, on your character selection screen, bottom right
5. If it’s enabled, log in the game and type /soundalerter
6. If nothing comes up, let me know
Okay /soundalerter shows up a menu, but the sound alerts aren’t working!
1. Make sure you have your WoW sound effects are on, volume turned up, and WoW and windows/mac sounds unmuted
2. Try pasting in this:
/run local f = CreateFrame(“frame”,nil, UIParent); f:SetScript(“OnUpdate”, CombatLogClearEntries);
3. If that didn’t work, check your sound options. Here is an example on how to set up your sound so you can only hear addons:http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/5…1611165329.jpg
