Vex Runes
Vex Runes
is an alternative to the blizzard rune frames.
Features
consecutive sorting of runes - available runes will always be displayed first.
The default by blizzard is to use runes that are available for the spending. By that it can happen that the runes aren't ordered at all and it's a pain to keep track of them. This addon features a sort function that sorts the rune by cooldown, making it way easier to keep up with your ressources.

Highly customizable
Design
- Vertical or horizontal rune filling (left to right, right to left, top to bottom and bottom to top are possible)
- rune sizes
- You can choose to use a preset of rune arrangements or setup the position on your own for every single rune
- rune background (visible when the rune is charging)
- Blink color (a flash indicating that the rune has just been used)
- Blood, Frost and Unholy rune colors
- Setup the cooldown text (or disable it)
Choose when to hide the addon
- Hide in vehicle
- Hide in combat
- Hide in combat, but show when targeting something
- Hide when in a pet battle

Posted Feb 16, 2015For players using this addon that have "Hide when 'not in combat'" enabled, and are seeing the Runebar show up after a reload/load screen, a quick edit will correct this issue.
vexrunes.xml :: <OnLoad>
core.lua :: function vexrunes_onEvent
Adding this additional event and function check will keep VexRunes from appearing after a loading screen is encountered.

Posted Dec 21, 2012Addon doesnt work correctly with Runic Corruption talent
Basicly what it does it starts to regenerate all runes by 100% increased speed instead of only one of each type. End after it is done it shows that all runes are depleted... please fix this because this bug makes this addon useless.

Posted Aug 31, 2012I tried this addon after much time with death knight monitor addon, so I would like to see runic power as a number and not a bar, and maybe the diseases too on the target (made both with power auras so no problem).
Another thing that would make it more visible i think, is adding colored borders on the runes so its easier when they are fully depleted to see what rune is coming,
Good job on the addon, thanks!

Posted Sep 1, 2012That was fast and thanks! Thing is when death runes come its still red blue or green and not purple, so I dont know if its easy to add the purple border for death runes too!
Another last thing if you can add is the option to show time in seconds without the tenths (8 instead of 8.3 i mean)
Thanks for your time and effort on this!
edit: I gave another thought on tenths and remembered that if you do it like that i will say 7 seconds when its 7.9 for example or 0 for 0.9 so its not the best idea i guess :P
edit2: about the border i found out that it shows purple border for blue or green runes too, so i guess again the best option is to remove border at all!

Posted Sep 1, 2012ok i just tested it, looks like your playing unholy? tested it earlier with frost and it worked fine, with unholy it was bugged, sry about that. I'll upload new version in a few minutes. Death runes have a death rune colored border, frost runes a frost rune colored border, etc etc ... BUT when I use a death rune, blizz triggers an event and says "boooooyyyyy look at that rune, its' no longer a death rune ! it's now a frost/blood/unholy rune again !" and as soon as its starting to be on cd blizz says "haha just kidding, it's a death rune again".
What that means: When you use a death rune, the bordercolor becomes the color of the frost/unholy/blood rune for a sec and then it becomes the bordercolor of a death rune again.

Posted Jul 31, 2012Doesn't hide blizzard's rune display.
All the "Set to default" buttons don't work.
Some suggestions; add an option for vertical runes and font outline and shadow.
