Hello again

Earlier this year, I posted about an experimental way that my add-on could re-skin the Blizzard Cast Bars. The reception was good, but there was hesitance around having to use Blizzard Unit Frames to achieve these Cast Bars.

I finally got around to recreating that concept as stand-alone Cast Bars that will work with any Unit Frame!

• Scoot has a ton of features; if these Cast Bars are all you care about, just download > go to 'Features' tab > cycle the Cast Bar option until it says 'Z' > reload UI. That's it!
• The Cast Bars are positioned via Edit Mode. They have snapping options if you are using Blizzard or Scoot Unit Frames.
• Every bar uses its Class color as a base, and then a Spec color gradient I've decided for the Spell Names.
• Most things are customizable/togglable, if there's something you'd like to change that isn't available: let me know.

Every single spec in the game has a custom color gradient, let me know your favorite!

If you remember my previous posts about Scoot (below), a lot has changed:

• I took community feedback and made sure every last component of the add-on must be toggled on first, so a fresh profile should be running NO code
• This means you can test or try out any part of Scoot you want, and just forget about any of the ones you don't :)

Hi everyone,

Earlier in the Spring, I posted about my add-on suite's ability to customize and add some features to the Blizzard Damage Meters.

After using the Scoot-customized Blizzard meters across many keys this season, I found there were some occasional errors that I could just not overcome with the built-in meters, and so I decided to create my own.

My goals for these meters were:

• Allow all of the same color, texture, font, and QoL customizations that I was trying to support for the Blizzard Meters
• Experiment and see if it was possible to enable a single `Overall` meter to track multiple metrics for the same player; across and during combat throughout any raid or dungeon (spoiler: I finally got it working great!)
• Offer detailed drill-downs for every metric type, showing Details (the add-on) level of information for any metric that the meters can track
• Still offer the retro style 'export' window, which is just a fancier view for screenshotting the meters that you send to your friends/group chats (we all do it, don't be humble)

After a full season of tweaking, the meters are finally achieving all of that and I couldn't be happier with the end result.

There are a couple other features I showed earlier in the season that folks wanted to try but without all of the other parts of Scoot, and standalone versions of those are coming soon (if you are a fan of my custom cast bars, they're already in the add-on as a beta!)
