    Global Cooldown (GCD) Bar  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
    Version: 2.6
    by: Wheels [More]
    Required libraries: LibAddonMenu

    Description:

    Another Andy.s inspired addon! I'm beginning to sense a theme here...

    This addon adds a bar to your screen that shows the remaining time on your global cooldown after doing anything that affects it. This allows you to get a better idea of when your game is ready to take the next action input, even when you may not be able to see your character's animation clearly.

    To make it clear, this addon does not track cast times or channel times, only the global cooldown.

    To see the basic functionality, take a look at Andy's original version in his video (it's the red bar in the bottom center).

    There is also an option to enable the Action Bar GCD animations that the game already has, but doesn't seem to include a setting for (other than a slash command). There are also options for size/position/color of the bar obviously. When it's unlocked, moving it can sometimes be a little weird, but it works trust me, just keep clicking. I swear. It definitely works. Usually.

    Version 2.6:
    • API bump for Markarth

    Version 2.5:
    • The GCD 'bar' itself can now be disabled if you just want the radial skill cooldowns on your skill bars

    Version 2.4:
    • Removed reference to libstub in the menu

    Version 2.3:
    • API bump for Greymoor

    Version 2.2:
    • API bump for Greymoor

    Version 2.1:
    • Fixed an issue where the bar would not work if you had necro siphon as the first ability on your bar
    • Smoothed bar animation
    • Temporarily removed the fast settings

    Version 1.2:
    • Changed how resizing works, can now resize any dimension individually
    • Advanced fast GCD option added
    • Reverse bar option added
    • Bar timing more consistent now (thanks Andy!)

    Version 1.1:
    • Added 'fast GCD' option to simulate a 900ms GCD

    What lines would I need to edit to get the grey backround off or at least adjust the opacity on skill bar effect?

    edit: I think I answered my own question, the animation and grey overlay over the skill bar is a builtin ESO function and nothing can be done?

    The skill bar effects are a zos thing yes, you can probably modify how it looks somehow but I haven't looked into it and have no advice currently. Take a look in the ESO source code.

    While I'd also appreciate an official update for account wide settings, here is a quick fix:
    Just replace line 56:
    Lua Code:
    1. gb.savedVars = ZO_SavedVars:NewCharacterIdSettings("GCDBarSavedVars", 1, nil, defaults)
    with this:
    Lua Code:
    1. gb.savedVars = ZO_SavedVars:NewAccountWide("GCDBarSavedVars", 1, nil, defaults)

    Lines 58-59 in the GCDBarUI.lua file:

    Code:
    gbBack:SetCenterColor(0, 0, 0, .25)
gbBack:SetEdgeColor(0, 0, 0, .25)
    Change the ".25" to 0, and POOF! No grey background!

    How to move the box?
    "When it's unlocked, moving it can sometimes be a little weird, but it works trust me, just keep clicking." I have not a clue what you mean by "unlocked". I just installed this and it put it high in the center-left of my screen and I hate it. I've clicked and clicked and clicked but it never moves. What am I missing here? I've disabled it for now out of sheer frustration.
