Decursive
Decursive for World of Warcraft
Decursive is a cleansing mod intended to make affliction removal easy, effective and fun for all the classes having this ability.
Documentation:
NOTE: Type /DECURSIVE to open the configuration panel. Decursive's options are not directly available in the "Interface" panel due to ongoing tainting issues Blizzard is not willing to fix.

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 Dec 27, 2006The problem is Blizzard changed many script functions to protected functions, meaning they cannot be used by non-Blizzard scripts. /cast and /castByName no longer work which is what Decursive used. You have to use new button templates that Blizzard made but they cannot be modified during combat. This makes it difficult to bring Decursive back the way it was. SmartBuff creates a button for each person in the party/raid and then changes their colors based on the debuff. But you cannot simply left click it to clean. For example: for Druids, left click is always Abolish Poison and right click is Remove Curse, so if someone is cursed I have to Right Click to clean them.
Decursive was really nice but unless Archarodim can think of something clever (or maybe hack something), Decursive will not come back in its old form.

Posted Dec 27, 2006What about the addon "smartdebuff"
In that addon you can right/left click on a "frame" to remove debuffs. Cant you move that over to a livelist? And then use the livelist on the old "/decursive" ? :)
(yet another non programer) :)

Posted Dec 26, 2006Ideus, you cannot execute '/target' or just any slash command from addons.
Addons environment is not the same than macro one/API.

Posted Dec 26, 2006Right I'm not a programmer or anything but would this work? (I know it would be very very memory demanding)
Create a list of those in the raid (perhaps having to type them in even) and upon hitting the decurse button, having the mod do a /target on every one of those people previously entered. If there is something to decurse, have another button to decurse. I mean I can, at present at least, do a /tar *player name* and then use my cleanse button, so would it be possible on a mass scale?

Posted Dec 26, 2006oh yeah, and things you can do in a macro you cannot necessarily do in a mod anymore.
Sucks to be a mod writer with idiots blaming us for crap Blizz screwed. Sounds like a 3-yr-old sayin "gimme gimme gimme" all the time. Either suck it up, complain to blizz, or try to write it yourself.
sorry folks, I just get tired of idiots saying "can't you just do that?"
the answer is no. if you find a way to do what blizz intentionally made impossible, Blizz will just plug the hole on the next patch.

Posted Dec 26, 2006Folks, come on, the problem isn't casting, it's targeting. you have 40 people (ok, 39 others) You have no mod that can target a member. period.
So, you do what? Tell the player in their chat channel that "Leeroy" has a curse!. Hell, go ahead and tell him "Leeroy is in Party3". "No, the Paladin" "The one wearing green armor ya noob!"
yes, you can tell the player that. IF he's paying attention to his chat channel (or wherever). but you CANNOT target Leeroy from a mod. at all.
if you can do that, you're smarter than the rest of us
Casting sure, casting against mouseover target, sure. but where is that target again? in the middle of a boss fight?
can't happen. At least, not yet.

Posted Dec 20, 2006There won't event be a decursive like before because as far as i understand the api changes of patch 2.0 addons aren't allowed anymore to target someone and to cast an action onto a target! Cause Blizzard loves to fuck up all of us O.o

Posted Dec 20, 2006Why do i have the feeling, they gave up on making a new version that will work with 2.0.1 or BC.
Can anyone that can code, write..or how ever you make a mod.
take over and give us a working mod?
There are a few that are out now that work...but they are nothing compared to this mod.
Please /beg dont give up on this awsome addon.
thanx,
Ts

Posted Dec 18, 2006Shadowbind beat me to it. To use those macros, simply pull out the blizzard raid frames, mouse over them and hit your keybind. Nothing more to it then that. It could work with some 2.0.1 addons as well.

Posted Dec 18, 2006Shouldn't you be able to implement the macro system into the addon, so when you click the target to decurse in the window, it uses a macro the player has created on the target the player is hovering over in Decursive?
