I like them both but I find that Afenar's often requires less fiddling with the scale. luxthos' are huge without reducing the scale and then positioning them, the default on Afenar is often perfect.
Thanks for this! BlizzHuDTweaks was the last thing I needed to make my UI! I am using Bestride Mount Manager(currently a bit bugged but they seem to be working on it), BlizzHudTweaks, Immersion, LatrixPlus, Opie, and the last up in the air one is Rarity for tracking all my mount/pet/toy farming. This is such a huge difference from years past with 20+ addons.
Amazing video as always! Only thing I noticed after getting back into wow again was I think you might need to re-export your ElvUI profile? It doesn't seem to import for me but other, new, ElvUI profiles import nicely. Don't know if it has anything to do with an update to ElvUI or something like that?
@@jewgenijsurnin6043 Hope this get's fixed. I am way too attached to ElvUI and Bellulars layout of it to not use it. Any chance of that happening @BellularGamming ?
Thank you for this. More tubers need to do this as alot of people like the UI's of the people we are watching, but are never able to find out what they use!
@iFParasit Maybe because they had 3rd party add on support. Really doesn't make sense from a business perspective to allocate resources and labor to UI fixes that are already fixed. That being said, from a customer service, and quality perspective, it should have been done. Have to give credit where it's due and I think it's a great sign that they're prioritizing quality over maximum profit in atleast one way.
Love this. I’m having so much fun building my UI and I‘m going super minimal with the important stuff all in one place, and just a few TellMeWhen notifications. Most of my addons are actually non-combat. Oh and I wouldn’t know how to navigate through all my teleport toys and items without Opie, especially as an engineer 😅
ELVUI keeps telling me your string is corrupted. Any chance you could please check it, and if needed upload it properly ? Thanks for the work, i recently subscribed to your channel, and LOVE the Lorewalking Episodes. !
I really liked this video, how you put it together with showing the various different styles instead of just one or what only you use. I've got two set ups currently in my saved UI as I've gone down to the base myself. I've got one with class weakauras and one without. I've enjoyed the one without as lux's are what I used but they just take up SO much of my screen and been getting in my way. I may try the other version you mentioned in the video though as it appeared to be more minimalist in design.
Litebuttonauras addon. Adds buff/debuff timers, and red/green highlights to your actionbars. Very nice if you want your action bars to be similar to some weakauras.
Maybe you can help me out. Seems like most ui mods are triggering LuA errors but the blizzui that you tweaked is something that I am interested in. But I am looking for a few things and don’t seem to find them or not looking right. 1) looking for an option to not have the character portrait on health bar. Am I overlooking this in base options? 2) There a addon that allows you to customize colors ie health/mana etc? ESo has a addon that lets you customize things like health/stam/magic to whatever color you want. 3) There an addon that tracks buffs/HoTs/DoTs. Basically a bar the would countdown inside of numbers? Love the videos and enjoying the game coming from eso
There is a great addon for chat, it's called LS: Glass. It makes chat look so much better by changing a few things and adding autofading. Clean and beautiful.
Oh thank you. I was using the old Glass and had to manually fix it to work with new versions. Knowing that somebody took over it and update feels great!
I watched the i fixed df`s busted ui and this video, in both videos you mention a plater profile "that Matt setup" which you say looks like the original plates but with the plater functionality.... but you havent mentioned a way of actually obtaining it.. assuming its on wago? could you put a link to it or how to find it please
Hi thank you for the video! For the Elvui, whenever i try to import the profile, it say that there is an erro decoding data and that import string might be corrupted any idea?
So using this video I made a UI that I really like, the last piece of the puzzle that I'm struggling with is making my luxthos weak aura act like my other action bars are - only showing when i'm in combat OR if I have a target. The in combat part is easy but I can't figure out the target one if anyone knows how I can do this. Thanks!
I got overwhelmed with WeakAura and tried TellMeWhen instead. So far very happy. The one thing I wish TellMeWhen would do is only pop up my interrupt button if the target is casting an interruptable spell.
ELVUI just has so much customization that I don't need anything else. I can just tweak it around to look pretty much like anything I can imagine. Apart from it, I only use a few others (namely DBM, Details, CanIMogIt and Narcissus)
The one problem I've had with the base UI is the raid/group frames. I really like the little indicators from other addons (like a little green square in the top right corner for renew). I started using Base UI + Vuhdo and have been loving it.
Check Advanced Raid Frame Settings out. Using that i was able to replace Vuhdo. There some features missing (like frame color change for dispelling), but the author is planning on adding them soon.
Hey nice video 👍🏼 is there an opportunity to disable the player portrait next to the healthbars ? So that u only have the health and mana bar ? That's the only thing I don't like at the ui I don't no for what that should be good 😂
I hadn't tried the new UI until I logged into retail on Saturday. It was nice not having to use ElvUI as I have been doing in Classic. In both I use a variation of what I've been using in FFXIV. It is nice that WoW has finally caught modernized and actually has a few really nice features.
add a condition to the group that has all the relevant auras. Something like: all of, in combat false, has target false, then alpha 0%. This will make it so if you're in combat or have a target, your weak auras show. Otherwise they're fully transparent (hidden).
Hey, I'm not sure if you're familiar with the addon NeedToKnow, it gives pretty customizable options to create your own aura bars similar to what elvui offers. Only downside is you have to create each individual bar, it doesnt just track everything automatically like elv
The OPie addon can also be translated to Oppai in Japanese, meaning boob/boobies. I don't know if it was a coincidence but I find it funny that the addon makes a circle with a dot in the middle as its menu.
Before BFA, when I gave a shit about the game, I always made my own UI from assorted mods. I would spend hours per character getting it right, making my own weak auras for everything. Then I just got lazy and put elvui over it. Now in pre-patch I'm back to piecing my UI back together but this time I'm using Luxthros because I can't make that shit better anyway.
Your layout string with Weak Auras doesn't seeem to match what you're showing, Bar1 is still in the middle, Bar4 and Pet bar arer overlapping, Bar3 sits over the XP bar, and the map clips the bag/micromenu.
I'm curious, anyone know a command or script to set the camera distance on click (without mouse scrolling) for an instant zoom in close, over the shoulder view and then back out to max and center?
It's an alright change, but it has tons of errors that come if you touch opacity, hiding UI elements, etc. The new player frames suck pretty heavily too.
Okay... so maybe i have missed something.. somewhere... but the one thing i have issue with the 'stock'; UI is i can not see my Atonement or regens on the 'raid frames'... is there something that i am missing or ?
I need to try and force myself to give up a few of the ElvUI features that I'm very used to, lots of little QoL and minor features that I know I'd miss. But I really do want to drop as many addons as possible. It is certainly one of those things that requires adjusting and willpower to get used to not having.
The only thing I’m missing is the simple function that all my options are Accountwide -Auto loot -party/raidframes Settings (class colors for example are not checked by default) -tutorials OFF PLS I PLAY SINCE '07!! And why can’t we edit our Interface on exiles reach before entering OG/SW? I just want my settings not be characterspecific more Accountwide. Sorry for my English I like the new UI a lot and deleted my Elvvui for it. It’s fresh and clean I like it.
Weakauras really is a blessing and a curse. There's so much that it can do, it's silly not to have it. Yet while it's enabled, my load times go through the roof.
Have you checked if thats some WA leakage? A lot of folks don't put proper load conditions for WeakAuras and so funky stuff happens. Same with some WAs that track things every frame (not all of those are bad but some are).
@@Coliusz I'm not sure about that, but I always put load conditions to spec specific and what not. I don't use a ton of Weakauras, think it's more related to the addon just being more intensive than others than any sort of actual issue.
Can we get a controller setup by chance? Is it just straight console port? Played all of FF with a controller and honestly it's hard to get back to keyboard and mouse. Any suggestions would be great!
Having issues with plater. For whatever reason. If my target is one that starts as a neutral one it's nameplate will show up on top of them so I can clearly see what I'm attacking. BUT if the target is a hostile one. It's nameplate sits at their feet and blocks my view entirely.. does anyone know how to fix this?
For anyone having this same issue, it's a custom option in luxthos weakauras, there's a tab called Custom Options that allow you to set out of combat alpha
Chinchilla to increase the minimap and mess around with it's shape etc. MMB Reborn to clean up all the minimap buttons. I can't stand all the crap around my character like you have. I wish we could move the HP and power bar that is below it. Too many times it has blocked my view of something esp. when you are flying in to get something.
I would like the middle location of abilities if i was able to click through. when i need to land a trap off of a stun i dont wanna have to worry about clicking my bars by accident
How is anyone getting Elv Ui to work? I disable every other addon, fully updated version and all get is weird grey boxes near my chat, around my minimap, and my character icon panel vanishes... been updating and updating it since prepatch started and not a damn thing works.

A light-weight addition to move & scale the EXPbar, Micro Menu and Que Tracker is "MovableMenuFrames"
(for those who don't want to use bartender)
Luxthos is the man for real. The Weakaura folks are amazing and put in so much work. They deserve more support from all of us for sure
I prefer Afenar. Luxthos’ WA is too long for my taste
I like them both but I find that Afenar's often requires less fiddling with the scale. luxthos' are huge without reducing the scale and then positioning them, the default on Afenar is often perfect.
Opie for all my abilities. no buttons on the screen, only hopes & dreams.
You can do that and use a gamepad. Some disabled people have been playing like that.
Thanks for this! BlizzHuDTweaks was the last thing I needed to make my UI!
I am using Bestride Mount Manager(currently a bit bugged but they seem to be working on it), BlizzHudTweaks, Immersion, LatrixPlus, Opie, and the last up in the air one is Rarity for tracking all my mount/pet/toy farming.

Kinda surprised you went thru all that and didn't share the setup too.

Seconded this would be great, current import strings for elvui are broken on their shadowlands profiles.
Thank you for this. More tubers need to do this as alot of people like the UI's of the people we are watching, but are never able to find out what they use!
Great video as always! Is it possible to get that amazing preset for Plater?
OPie really is a game changer. Bell recommended it in a video years ago and I still update it every patch. It's SO good.
That ring click thing I've never seen before. that looks super handy!
The fact that you need so little to "perfect" the UI for yourself shows how good of a job Blizzard did
Literally took centuries to just adopt stuff addons gave u
@iFParasit Maybe because they had 3rd party add on support. Really doesn't make sense from a business perspective to allocate resources and labor to UI fixes that are already fixed. That being said, from a customer service, and quality perspective, it should have been done. Have to give credit where it's due and I think it's a great sign that they're prioritizing quality over maximum profit in atleast one way.
@@iFParasit I don't think you know what literally means. Seriously though, better late than never, right?
@@wolverinesfan9021 exactly, they could have just left it to the add-ons to continually make up for it, but instead they fixed it
@@stevencrosby5251 Id say they _fixed_ it cause they are trying to move the game to other media like consoles and so had to update the UI.
Love this. I’m having so much fun building my UI and I‘m going super minimal with the important stuff all in one place, and just a few TellMeWhen notifications. Most of my addons are actually non-combat. Oh and I wouldn’t know how to navigate through all my teleport toys and items without Opie, especially as an engineer 😅
Opie is the goat add-on and basically all you need especially with how good the stock is now
Opie is probably my number one needed addon honestly. I would be lost without it!
Can't copy the Plater string from the medium website because it seems to be cutting the whole thing short
so true
ELVUI keeps telling me your string is corrupted. Any chance you could please check it, and if needed upload it properly ? Thanks for the work, i recently subscribed to your channel, and LOVE the Lorewalking Episodes. !

@@RavienGaming yes exactly but it seems that there is no option for this so I think I will not use the blizzard frame... Again...
I hadn't tried the new UI until I logged into retail on Saturday. It was nice not having to use ElvUI as I have been doing in Classic. In both I use a variation of what I've been using in FFXIV. It is nice that WoW has finally caught modernized and actually has a few really nice features.
The ui revamp isn't even one tenth as good as elvUi or other add-ons. It's a very tiny baby step in the right direction.
Your Shadowlands UI import string on the written portions doesn't work, might wanna update or check on that
i could not get the Plater Profile to import into Plater properly... Help please.
I've been wanting a video like this for years!! Thank you so much!
I wanted to make a weakaura UI that follows personal resource display. With Plater I can remove the need for player and target unit frames entirely.
All your Plater import stuff is busted, any support? I liked Matt's idea of a blizzard ish version of Plater
Please Blizz can I please move the quest window in future updates
Opie ftw. I use it for all my transform, hearthstones, Teleports etc. Its freaking fantastic.
Is there a way to only load Weak Auras when you have a target?

You might've mentioned this in the video and I probably missed it but do you prefer Afenar or Luxthos for class Weakauras?
Personal resource display options for sure need to be on edit mode UI as an option, im baffled that Blizzard UI team missed this
Hey man I just wanted to say thanks you for this , it’s great saves me a ton of work plus’s don’t really understand that stuff thanks a lot !!
I'm gettin tired of having to change the size of my chat window every single time I log back in, it never saves.
I like the Plater look mat mad but it could certainly use an update to more clearly indicate what you are targeting.
Did I miss anything about the UI scale? I used the no-WA import string, and a number of things are overlapping. I play at 1920x1080 at 100% scale.
Hey, where did you put your mounts and hearthstones?
The OPie addon can also be translated to Oppai in Japanese, meaning boob/boobies. I don't know if it was a coincidence but I find it funny that the addon makes a circle with a dot in the middle as its menu.
I mean its an O-Ring with Pie-slices as actions.
Thanks, but do you know why masque doesn't work with the default bars? :(

Enhanced Raid Frames is great for healing with baseui
Is there going to be an updated spreadsheet that accompanies Dragonflight for all the keybinds and suggestions?
I found it on their patreon for free ( public ), they also released a video on it.
I'm curious, anyone know a command or script to set the camera distance on click (without mouse scrolling) for an instant zoom in close, over the shoulder view and then back out to max and center?
can we move target casting bar and focus casting bar?
I dont know if im doing something wrong but when i try to copy the profile into Elvui it tells me the string is corrupted
It's an alright change, but it has tons of errors that come if you touch opacity, hiding UI elements, etc. The new player frames suck pretty heavily too.
everyone keeps saying they like minimal lol and here i am putting as many bars as i can and filling them up with abilities, mounts, pets and toys
Great video but can you share your profiles for the addons
This is super thorough thanks michael
Sadly, your exported profile for ElvUI doesn't work anymore. Any chance on having an update on that?
You need to get the ElvUI Profile converter (another addon) and then use that to convert it to the new style
Okay... so maybe i have missed something.. somewhere... but the one thing i have issue with the 'stock'; UI is i can not see my Atonement or regens on the 'raid frames'... is there something that i am missing or ?
where do i find the presets
in the written portion click the link in description.
Is the keybinding document going to be updated?
ElvUi Large and Small versions w/weakauras does not import "Error decoding data, Import string maybe corrupted!", any ideas?
thanks! been waiting for this!
Where can I get the plater profile? Thanks!
How do you move the unitframe enemy castbar so it's not below the unit frames and in the middle of the screen so easier to see for kicks?
I pray Bagnon gets fixed. The new bag ui is still bad
What specifically don't you like?
Is there an import code for this? It's mentioned in the video but I don't see it anywhere. Am I missing something?
Mine is closer to the old UI only more buttons and larger target and personal icons. Its a bar set up vid but not everyone likes the same esthetic.
Hey your Elvui import string doesnt work. Any chance you can update it?
Plater profile does not work. The addon only imports strings from wago
Thank you !! very useful info! Love all your vids !
I need to try and force myself to give up a few of the ElvUI features that I'm very used to, lots of little QoL and minor features that I know I'd miss. But I really do want to drop as many addons as possible.
It is certainly one of those things that requires adjusting and willpower to get used to not having.
Only thing missing from the blizzard ui, is the ability to move the micro menu and the bags. Otherwise I would use blizzard ui over elvui.
The only thing I’m missing is the simple function that all my options are Accountwide
-Auto loot
-party/raidframes Settings (class colors for example are not checked by default)
-tutorials OFF PLS I PLAY SINCE '07!!
And why can’t we edit our Interface on exiles reach before entering OG/SW?
I just want my settings not be characterspecific more Accountwide. Sorry for my English
I like the new UI a lot and deleted my Elvvui for it. It’s fresh and clean I like it.
Thank you, this helped a lot.
Is there an import link for the Plater
Thank you, you may have helped me find the few addons ill need to tweak the blizzard UI and leave ElvUI in the past!
I'm pretty certain that the profiles are not working correctly when I import it looks very different
wish you could import UIs the same way we can import specs
Still waiting for LUI to be updated. Played with it since Wrath so can't imagine to switch over to something new
