SmartRes

SmartRes Test Bars

Automated and co-ordinated Party & Raid Resurrection

SmartRes puts bars on your screen that have timers for the various resurrection spells: Resurrection, Ancestral Spirit, Revive, Redemption, and tells you who is casting on whom, how long it will take to bring the target back to life.

Q: Why SmartRes, and not simply a macro?
A: Because macros cannot tell you the name of released (ghost) players, and SmartRes can.
A(2): When using the keybind (auto) rez feature, SmartRes will not try to res players who are already being rezzed by someone else.
A(3): Players who use SmartRes will see every out of combat res type spell being cast, Raid leaders can tell those without SmartRes that a given corpse is already being ressed so the resser can stop casting and pick a new target, thus speeding up wipe recovery.

SmartRes reports, and gets reports, from other addons that have a Resurrection Monitor. It is more accurate if all the ressers have SmartRes, of course!

KNOWN ISSUES: if you use oRA2, it apparently conflicts with SmartRes, although I used both at the same time for months and never had an issue. For now, if you do have a conflict, I suggest using HealInc or simply watch the res monitor in oRA2.
SmartRes is sometimes displaying in combat res casts (Rebirth) and it should not do so. I do not plan to fix this issue in the addon.
SmartRes2 is in development that addresses these, and a few other concerns.

Type /sr or /smartres for options, or use FuBar.

  • Change the resurrection message, which chat type you want it: Party, Raid, custom
  • Whisper the target of your res spell
  • Move, colour, and re-texture the bars
  • Set your own key bindings for Normal and Auto ressing
  • More!!

It has both a manual and auto-bind key for resurrecting. The manual key is for targeting released players, and the auto key is for non-released corpses. The default keys are "-" and "." and to change keys, pick a key, or key combination, and then press the Enter button on your keyboard.

Localized: enUS, deDE, koKR, zhCN –– I would appreciate more localizations, and will give credit to those who help. Sadly, I do not know who provided the existing localizations pre-Wrath. Apparently, the German deDE is incorrect. Please go here to update that, or any other locales!

Original addon by Maia, continued by Kyahx and poull. WotLK version by Myrroddin.
Thank you for the bug fixes, Zidomo!

    stonecow, weird, since that alpha has the Revive spell in it. Or should, at least. In any case, since every version I try on my own computer won't allow me to config (bind a res key, show the anchor, appear on FuBar) that's why I am rebuilding the mod. If the addon is working for you right now, even w/o the Druid spell, keep using it.

    In the meantime, I'm still coding when I can spare the time.

    Yea it's been working fine for me on 3.x but my druid's new ooc res seems to be missing from the mod. That's the only problem I've come across.

    Contrary to the notes above, SmartRes is working just fine in WoW 3.0.x live. Poull's last r87 (and the current "Alpha2") are working without errors or issues.

    Bars appear when you & others res, the party/raid chat alerts occur fine and so on. So you may want to rephrase "SmartRes is not working on live 3.x", because it is not the case ;).

    New author: lrn2test. After that, only commit after making sure your test revision...actually works.

    "beta" does not work in WoW 3.0.2 live, USEng server/client. Details on the WowAce thread for this mod.

    I rolled back your updates on the SVN to the working r87.
