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.

Decursive is dedicated to the memory of Bertrand Sense known as Glorfindal on the European server Les Sentinelles. He was the raid leader of my guild (Horizon)

Try Decursive alone then reset its options to defaults (using Decursive menu).
It may be a conflict with another add-on you recentky installed...
I have the same problem like Frido. The Mufs won't appear. I only have ACE2 Addons installed and ACE2 stands not for incompatiblity between addons using this framework.
I tried it out without any other addons activated and the MUF want appear either.
tried to reactivate it via option menu. Nothing :-(
Frido :
Did you try to reactivate it through the option menu?
Can you activate lua error reporting? (Blizzard disabled error reporting in wow 2.1... they added an option to re-enable it)
also try the command /dcrreset
I have a little problem. The MUF's are not showing up for me :-( Indepentent what i tried its not showing up anymore.
I deleted the decursive.lua from WTF, I reseted decursive, I reinstalled it. But the MUF's dont want to show up for me again.
I can agree with that completely! I already have a raid interface, I just want to see the names of who I'm decursing at a glance, without having to mouse over for the tooltip.
Your work with Decursive is awesome and I look forward to it as time goes on!
@Rulvan:
Ok but this will be for the next version. I want to release 2.0 final as soon as possible.
The problem with this is that once I'd have added the names, people will request a health and mana bar, to show when the unit is dead etc.... it's just another mod. Decursive is not a raiding interface :/
Request: Could you please add an option to show names on the MUFs? This would be really helpful to some players. I know it shows as a tooltip (optional) and that it's currently designed to be as discreet as possible. I also know that there's a certain organization to the MUFs. With all this in mind, I have used SmartDebuff for a little bit and I like they way they organize their version of the MUFs. You can organize them by class or group, and they show the names of the party/raid members. You can also adjust their size to show more or less, and thus decide how much or little screen space you want it to take up.
Having said all that, I like Decursive better, as far as decursing and setup options (lots of includes/excludes, priority list, skip list, etc). I just wish I could have an at-a-glance experience with using it.
Hi, I've just started playing WoW again after a break since pre TBC. I remember that in the old decursive you could just map one key, and whenever you pressed it, it would cure/cleanse, if needed, the nearest partyy member/raid member/yourself. What I'm wondering, is there any way to do i on this version?
Thanks
@Mushroombomb:
This is no longer possible since WoW 2.0 the MUFs and the mouse-over macro are the only way to cast spells... (Read the readme.txt file for more information)
the livelist is attached to the "Decursive" bar (there are diifeent ways to display it, one of them is by typing /dcrshow) To move this bar, just alt-click on it
Stupid question... how can you move the live list to a different area of the screen, can't seem to find out how to do it.
You sir, are wonderful. Thank you very much. :)
@Rikakiah:
Your request was not that complicate to implement after all (Decursive is so well coded^^) :) (The only issue was the string 'Rank' which is localized :/) You can download the dev version there:
http://www.2072productions.com/?to=decursive_dev
Grrr...that Ace2 folder was the only real major update I did (others were just minor version stuff)...this'll be fun to track down... Thanks for looking into it, though.
I was hoping there was simply some sort of call function to just cast the spell "Polymorph", in which case, casting "Polymorph(Rank 1)" wouldn't seem a major issue. :( If it's more than that, I understand and it's probably too much of a hassle, but I appreciate you looking at it.
All in all, though, thanks for a great mod--I seriously couldn't live without it and you've done a great job with it.
@Rikakiah:
The message does not seem to come from ACE2 (i've search for it in all my .lua and .xml files and I couldn't find it). It must be comming from another add-on... Are you sure this is the exact message?
For polymorph spell rank, I'll see what I can do but this is an annoying modification to make... (Decursive currently doesn't handle ranks)
First thing, and it's probably more Ace than specifically Decursive, but hopefully someone here can help me.
After installing the new Ace2 folder (and a few others, but I'm hoping Ace is what did this), I have a line of text in the top right of my screen: "0 cps via lib (800 bytes avail). 0 cps bypassed lib" Any idea what this is, and more importantly, how I can make it disappear?
And back to Decursive specific, any chance to get it to use Polymorph(Rank 1) as the default? I don't mean to be annoying, but it would really be more beneficial this way.
Changes from Decursive 2.0 BETA 6-Pub-fixed to Decursive 2.0 BETA 7-Pub New features: - It's now possible to add dynamic groups and classes in the priority and skip list: - The last change also allow to sort units per group AND classes at the same time. - An informative help message is displayed when the user doesn't click a MUF with the correct mouse button. - Major code optimization: reduced CPU usage from ~0.04 seconds per seconds to ~0.001 seconds per second (results obtained with up to date external Ace2 libraries, if Decursive's embedded shared libraries are the most up to date, Decursive CPU usage will also count the usage of the shared libraries by other add-ons). - Added revised Traditional Chinese translation by Peter Sun. Changes: - When a MUF is clicked, any spell targeting in progress is canceled. - The MUFs react upon mouse button release instead of mouse button press. - When adding an affliction to the filter, the entered name is trimmed. - It is now possible to move the "Decursive" bar maintaining the Alt key pushed with the buttons hidden. - Live-list system entirely rewritten. - The scale and transparency of the live-list can be changed in the options. - A message is displayed if the user clicks on the live-list... - It is possible to hear Decursive's debuff alert sound when the live-list is disabled. - Decursive uses SpecialEvent-Aura events to monitor debuffs. - You can create a virtual debuff to test the display (see in live-list options) - The MiniMap and FuBar Decursive Icon is now clickable and an information tool-tip is displayed when mouse-overing it. - Decursive Icon gets grey when both the live-list and MUFs are disabled. - Added Major Dreamless Sleep to the debuff skip list (Translation is needed for other localizations)
Fixed bug: - The status tool-tip was not displayed if the live-list was hidden. - Warlock pet detection could fail in some conditions. - Default Warrior ignored debuffs were not used because of a spelling mistake. - If you were already in combat when logging-in or if you reloaded your UI in combat, Decursive was unable to operate correctly. - Other little bugs were fixed.
Yes sorry about that Archarodim, it works after i have updated all other ace mods (i remember getting old library warning when decursive bugged)
Awsome addon btw :)
The problem is comming from another add-on that is using old Ace libraries, go on http://files.wowace.com and download all the Ace add-ons you use :/
Try to install those external libraries:
Ace2: http://www.wowace.com/files/Ace2/Ace2-r36539.zip
FubarPlugin: http://www.wowace.com/files/FuBarPlugin-2.0/FuBarPlugin-2.0-r36809.zip
My intuition says to me that it's probably FubarPlugin that's causing the issue...
You should also try to disable all your add-ons but Decursive to see if it works.
