Display Procs and Cooldowns on Main's Screen

[eohippus]

I have seen a few posts from a while back that mention partial solutions to displaying cooldowns or procs like Eclipse, Lock n Load or Arcane Barrage on your main's screen, but there did not seem to be any that would just show a large graphic when the ability proc'd. Is anyone aware of a good tool that I can select specific abilities/procs/cooldowns of my alts and display them on the screen of my main? Any suggestions/solutions would be greatly appreciated! I had been hoping that Jamba would have such a feature, but it does not appear to be an option.

No real way to show procs on your main screen, but cooldowns you can use Party Ability Bars, it gives visual cooldowns for your party.

you can show procs with Power Aura for example.

I actually found a mod that did this but i was unable to edit it.

So it flashed big buttons on all my cds wich ended up beeing more a mess then it helped me.

I mean Grounding,shocks,CL,earth bind,stoneskin,fire nova,thunderstorm,LvB while all i realy wanted to see was grounding totem,thunderstorm and LvB.

Mik's scrolling battle text.

You need to change specific triggers to be partymember not the character you are on.

Worked a treat for shaemans 5 maelstrom weapon proc.

I was playing with this for an unrelated purpose this week and it will do exactly what you want.

On your Main you will create Triggers where you will set
Unit or Class Name - You can set it for a class (Shaman) or individual toons
Event - You can add specifc abilities. You can add multiple events to one trigger or create triggers for each ability
Execptions - If you don't want to display a Proc out of combat for example (like when clearcasting procs while crafting) you can set that

You can also configure
Display - You can configure what type of alert it generates - this controls where it goes on the screen and how it behaves, scroll time etc. You can pick fonts and colors for individual triggers too. So make each alt's trigger a different color if you wanted.

You can even create custom sounds to play. You could record sounds to say things like "Toon B eclipse Proc'd". I could only get them to work if I actually placed the mp3 in the Addon's sound folder. Which I need to remember to be careful not to delete when I update the addon.

You can also create triggers for things like buffs fading. So if you have a shaman alt you could create a Trigger to alert you when Flametongue fades, Mage self buffs would work the same.

I have an alt that camps a rare spawn. The mobs is a caster and puts a buff on himself as soon as he spawns. I created a Trigger to alert me whenever this specific mobs casts that buff. It plays a custom mp3 I recorded and puts a large font text alert up that sitcks in the middle of the screen for about 10 seconds. All I have to do is alt tab over and target the mob, run to it and kill it. I no longer have to check that window every few minutes to try and target it. I just wait for the sound.

Thank you all for the quick replies, I am going to check out the scrolling battle text and Power Auras. I am hoping to boost my DPS by going beyond just "faceroll" macro castsequences in a mixed group...

While searching on similar addons today, I also found one called Buffwatch++ that works as well for buffs and procs (you just have to capture them once). I have decided to use MikScrollingBattletext, but Buffwatch was not a bad solution either, just not as flexible.
