SmartCast - Fast and accurate ground targeting  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.3
by: Shinni [More]
This addon lets you cast ground targeting abilities with only one button tap instead of double tapping.
The ground target indicator appears while you hold the abilities key down and the ability is cast when the key is released.

Additionally you can select for each ground targeting ability, if it should be smart cast (one button press) or cast via two button presses (like the regular cast system).

With the Dark Brotherhood update, ZOS will add a quick cast option for ground target abilities. ZOS' quick cast option however will cast the ability immediately, so there isn't any targeting indicator.
This addon is a kind of hybrid between the new quick cast and the normal cast system as it will cast the ability with only one button press while still displaying the target indicator.

This addon works with the current live version of the game and with the Dark Brotherhood version on the PTS.
## 1.3
- fixed lua error

## 1.2
- fixed a bug where the map would break when casting an ability while the targeting indicator is active for a different ability

## 1.1
- compatible with Summerset

## 1.0

I still had the workaround going from last time it broke (see generic's Oct 7th post). That worked fine until this update. Illustrious Healing works fine after i turn off Smartcast. sadness. much sadness.

Ditto. I use SmartCast on my Necro to use Boneyard as an AOE centered on myself. Since the latest update SmartCast being active stops Boneyard from activating. Hopefully, someone with more programming skills than I will look into this ....

I don't know enough about lua to fix, hopefully someone here can think of something since SmartCast is a necessity for me.
That was actually a good hint. Both LibChatMessage (used by many addons) and SmartCast rely on doing stuff with CHAT_ROUTER:FormatAndAddChatMessage, and it seems the order in which both are loaded has a huge impact on SmartCast.

I found an easy fix, which includes no real coding:
Edit the LibChatMessage.txt with the editor of your choice and add a new line after "## SavedVariables: ..."
Code:
## OptionalDependsOn: SmartCast
Now, LibChatMessage will wait until SmartCast is loaded, and for me it works reliably afterwards.
From what I can see, there are no issues with LibChatMessage, but use that patch at your own risk.

I'm not sure how i'd go about fixing this.

I am a really poor coder but i do know diagnostics and seeing where the errors lie and trying to fix them. If this is not going to be maintained by the developer i'd love to take a crack at it with a couple friends to get this great addon working again for ESO.

Yeah, stopped working today, since there were no updates to the game or this addon, it's probably interference from some other addon (bandit's perhaps)?

Is there a way to get it to auto target cast just directly under me, forego the targeting all together, aka eliminate the "range"?

Re: Disable Icons?

I have the same OCD issue myself. Now the files in question are .dds files so I tried resizing them to make them smaller but the addon would not then work :-(

Just a thought. My OCD can't handle the S's :-P

Thanks!
