Decursive key benefits
Ease of use:
- Decursive supports all classes with cleansing abilities and configures itself automatically, it works straight out of the box, no configuration is required.
 - Intuitive interface and detailed options, Decursive is suitable for simple usage and power users.
 
Control what and who you want to dispel:
- Easily Filter out afflictions you don't want to cure or that are useless to remove by class (some are pre-configured). (Such as afflictions affecting mana on non-mana classes, etc...).
 - Choose between what you can dispel (magic, curses, poison, diseases, charms) choosing their priority. (this allows you to share the cleansing work with other players effectively)
 - Prioritize or exclude members. (keep players, classes, or raid groups in a specific order to cleanse them in order of importance)
 
Manage Mind controlled units:
- If you are a Mage, a Druid or a Shaman you can Polymorph/Cyclone/Hex mind-controlled players.
 - In any case Decursive will allow you to target mind controlled units easily.
 - Decursive supports magic charming affect removal for Shamans (Purge and Hex), Priests (Dispel Magic), Hunters (Tranquilizing Shot), and Warlocks (Fellhunter and Doomguards spells).
 
Don't waste time:
- Your cleansing spell Cooldown is displayed to maximize your dispel speed.
 - An automatic blacklist will prevent you from loosing time on players who can't be dispelled. (player 'out of line of sight' for example).
 - Decursive choose a logical cleansing order depending on your current position in the raid. (preventing dispel concurrence between players and thus 'nothing to dispel' messages)
 
React faster:
- Visual and/or auditive alerts when someone needs your attention and can be dispelled.
 - Special sound alert when Unstable Affliction is detected and you're about to dispel it.
 - Visual and auditive alert when your dispel attempts are resisted or fail.
 
Integration in any interface:
- Decursive is designed to save screen real estate and to be forgotten when not needed.
 - Many options allow you to customize Decursive appearance and interface behavior.
 - All Decursive alert colors can be modified making it suitable for color-blind people.
 
Highly optimized and effective coding:
- Decursive was developed with memory and CPU usage in mind, installing Decursive won't affect your frame rate even in the worst battle conditions.
 - Bug free: bugs are not tolerated in Decursive.
 
In brief, what you get with Decursive is effectiveness, a player using Decursive will always dispel faster than other players.

Posted Jan 16, 2007are you using Ct raid ? Because recently, I changed for ORA2 and other ACE replacement and my frame-rate is much better and there are no more freezes at all... Also note that if you are under windows, Windows update will cause freezes if set to automatic...

Posted Jan 16, 2007Ill start doing more analysis of what im doing.
Im also going through my mods to see what else it could be, but again, so far it still seems its decursive.
Update: It doesnt happen as often as it did for some wierd reason, but it happens usually when Im opening things, or about to cast anything.
Again, it doesnt happen that much now. But it still is there, and its just not common mod lag, its a literal pause in the game.

Posted Jan 16, 2007I believe this is causing freezing in the game.I disabled decursive and the freezing went away.
It appears to be random, but sorta frequent. Happens about every 5 or so minutes.

Posted Jan 16, 2007WoW 2.0 uses an incremental garbage collector, there is no more "garbage collection" that freezes the computer. However I noticed that some very unoptimized mods delay actions they cannot take while your in combat and execute them all at once when you leave combat, causing freezes...

Posted Jan 16, 2007Is it normal that Decursive uses memories very fast thus making my client does garbage collection (and freezes my computer for 1 second) every 5 minutes? I hope that made sense? :(

Posted Jan 15, 2007arggg sure it's errln() that should be called not Errln() :/
it should have printed:
"Too many macros exist, Decursive cannot create its macro"
So just remove one of your macros and it'll be OK

Posted Jan 15, 2007@archiv: You can move the MUFs frame by clicking and dragging the invisible handle just above the first MUF. I'll make something to improve that since a lot of people will have trouble to find this handle :/
@claudio:
Decursive has many many more options than Clique. And is
@Sumomo:
not yet, it will be uploaded on the svn once it is cmplete.
@Farook:
Yes Decursive acts like Smatrtbuf but is very optimized toward cleansing.
@jjb:
What do you mean by 'a little bit too beta' did you try at least?

Posted Jan 15, 2007atm i think for healer is the best way to use grid and clique. for all other decurser such a standalone addon like decursive is the best choice. but i think this decursive version is a bit too beta. so better use smartdebuff or my addon (much more features, but not yet a public release) :)

Posted Jan 15, 2007Just a thing... You can't do the exactly same thing, downloadin' a click&heal addon and binding to a mouse click the "decurse spell"?
Example: Set background of the tab in ct_raid or what you use in raid to see the other raid members as 100% alpha so you can surely see who is debuffed. - Bind right click with an anti-debuff spell (abolish, cleanse, etc.) - bind other anti-debuff spell, if you have, with combination (ctrl+click, alt+click, ...) - Simply move mouse pointer on the tab of the player debuffed and right click (or combinations of right click).
I've use "clique", and it can do the job of decursive at the same time of the main function of "click&heal" addon.

Posted Jan 15, 2007YAY! Cant wait to try this! Thank you Arch!
I havent read much about the new things, but a fast thought is, I hope this doesnt conflict with my other click to heal addons.
But thank you sooo much for continuing this addon!

Posted Jan 14, 2007Can I conceive that "Decursive" now acts similar to "SmartDebuff"? Showing small unit frames that are are highlighted somehow and can be clicked to decurse that particular unit?
If so, I have to give it a try (again) as it now uses Ace2-goodness.
