ElvUI Now Updated for Midnight Pre-Patch

ElvUI

Update
The first official ElvUI 15 build is about to be released to all the usual sources (Website, Tukui Client, WowUp and Wago App).
As mentioned in our original Midnight post, this initial release is not perfectly fine but a very good start to keep working on reports and features. Special shoutout to p3lim and the oUF team for maintaining the library to keep our Unitframes and Nameplates powered for Midnight
Thanks to Nevcairiel for updating the action button library which makes it easier for us to have our Actionbars

Compatibility

We've done our best to test and verify all of our Midnight changes are as compatible with Classic, TBC and Mists as possible
Style Filters and Portraits have been removed for all versions of the game and Cutaway Bars has been removed for Midnight
The new basic filtering for buffs and debuffs can optionally be used in Classic, TBC and Mists (its a performance increase)

Midnight

Basic filtering for buffs and debuffs has been implemented for all frames, based on what Blizzard allows in 12.0
Basic text format tags have been added, logic such as "only show last name" and similar is no longer possible
Basic cooldown manager skinning and font settings implemented in the BlizzUI Improvements tab under General
Cooldown text settings have been reworked from scratch, if you don't see them on Actionbars u have to enable "Show Numbers for Cooldowns" in Blizzard settings
Custom classbar for the Devourer Demon Hunter has been added
Custom classbar tab for "Additional Power" has been added to display Ebon Might for the Augmentation Evoker
Nameplate classification colors have been added for enemy types Melee, Caster, Miniboss, Boss, Rares and more (these work in dungeons and raids as well!)
Nameplates Health Width setting is now separate from Nameplates > General > Clickable Width

Good to know

Added a "Reset Text" button next to all "Text Format" boxes in Unitframes and Nameplates to restore (and fix in case of Midnight) our defaults

Cooldown manager

We have noted down a big list of ideas for features we would like to work on for the cooldown manager
The general long-term plan here is to make a dedicated "Cooldown Manager" tab in the main ElvUI config on the left side
Nothing is set in stone yet, this implementation might take weeks or months or not even happen at all, but the general thought exists

Known issues

Support for the new Diminishing Returns Tracking module on Arena frames has not been implemented yet
The border for Private Auras on Unitframes is not scaled yet, expect it to be very big and overlapping until we get to work on it and test

Comment by ForgottenSpearBetter late than never, eh? Most everyone I know has moved on from Elvui after their response with the changes Blizzard is making. Several friends have created their new UI that they enjoy even more and it's even easier to maintain now.

Wish Elvui the best in the future.Comment by mewhywhyWait isn't this from the developers that were blaming other UI's that they "stole code" (Without ever providing proof even when asked 10000x) and made other addon creators quit their UI making and some even quit WoW cause of the backlash ElvUI devs created for these UI creators due to them falsely sending hordes of fanboys attacking these people. All while other UI Dev's have been working on fixing their UI since day one of Midnight Beta while ElvUI was just afk threatning to quit and rant/cry on twitter.

Insane, never supporting their work again.

#FreeQuaziiComment by SingularShadowThank god, never knew how much i missed my old ui until pre-patch, many thanks guys!Comment by IianaPRAISE BE!
This week without elvui has been complete assComment by WhammoSeems as if the addon devs were farming interest in their Discord. Was a bit gross to see.Comment by ControladoI wonder why people actually want to remove other people addons, with no benefit for them whatsoever.

WeakAuras is dead and the game is not better in any way.
If ElvUI was dead, the game also would not be better in any way.Comment by ivikatashaLove ElvUI, glad to see it back!Comment by ForgottenSpearYou are better off without ElvUI.Comment by AndarviDHCrazy timing considering they just whined and cried their way into running off one of the better WOW content creators who produced a far superior product to their trash.Comment by wowiwim980Wait isn't this from the developers that were blaming other UI's that they "stole code" (Without ever providing proof even when asked 10000x) and made other addon creators quit their UI making and some even quit WoW cause of the backlash ElvUI devs created for these UI creators due to them falsely sending hordes of fanboys attacking these people.
