Saeris's WoW and WAR Addons

World of Warcraft Addons
Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning Addons



Preamble

This page is a portal for numerous World of Warcraft and Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning user interface addons created by me, Saeris. Each addon also has a "Documentation" directory within its folder, containing a description of its functionality, the entire documented history of changes, developer notes (if applicable), the license, contact information (including the information needed to donate if you wish), and an explanation of my versioning system. All of this information is also present either right here or on the addon's own page. Also, if needed, installation instructions are available.

Made with Notepad++



Installation Instructions

To install an addon, first download the latest version of that addon, which is a simple .zip archive file. Navigate to the location where you saved the file, right click it, and select the option to unzip the file to the current directory from the context menu. Open the folder that appears to find one or more additional folders inside, select and right click those folders, and select "Cut". Now navigate to the directory on your hard drive where the game is installed. If there is no folder in that directory named "Interface", create one, and then create another folder within that one named "AddOns". Within the AddOns folder, right click and select "Paste", to drop the addon you are installing into this folder. If you are asked whether to overwrite existing files, select "Yes". Then ensure the folder hierarchy is correct by checking this format:
{game directory} \ Interface \ AddOns \ {addon name} \ {individual files and possibly other sub-folders}
If the folders and files are in that order, with respect to case sensitivity, you have successfully installed the addon. For WoW addons, you must exit the game before installing the addon to ensure that it is fully installed. For WAR addons, the addon can be installed while the game is running, but you must type "/reloadui" afterward to load it.

Versioning System
as of September 27th, 2008

These addons adhere to a #.#.# versioning format:

The first number (the 11 in 11.22.33) denotes the current major version. This number is incremented when the addon's functionality or style of code changes so significantly as to barely resemble previous versions. For library-type addons, which provide functionality to client addons, this number is also a guarantee that every release within this major version will be backwards compatible with previous releases that are also within this major version. In these cases, this number is actually a suffix on the library's name. This is done so newer major versions of libraries will not overwrite older ones, since those may still be in use by other clients.

The second number (the 22 in 11.22.33) denotes the current minor version. This number is incremented when functionality is added, modified, or removed.

The third number (the 33 in 11.22.33) denotes the current subminor version. This number is incremented when a release's purpose is to fix bugs or errors, or to increase efficiency in some way, or to make a minor cosmetic adjustment.
