Pitbull 4

I downloaded and installed Pitbull 4 from Wowace.com last night and so far I really like it. It’s not ready for release yet, but it has most of the necessary functionality aside from raid frames. It’s also much easier to configure than its predecessor. Being that I spent some time with Pitbull before, I had this version up and running in nothing flat. I was having some issues with my target’s health bars with the older version. Every time I …

The Garwulf UI Version 2.0

The Garwulf UI Version 2.0

Since I posted my short video of the Loque’nahak taming on YouTube, I’ve received a lot of questions about the addons that I use. As a result of this, I have packaged and uploaded my UI suite to this website so that others may try it out.

I’d been meaning to do this for some time, but two things held me up. First off, a UI is in constant flux in my opinion. Anyone who’s tackled trying to install and configure 3rd party addons knows this. It is rare that someone will actually be 100% satisfied with their UI and give up messing with it. Secondly, there are only so many hours in a day. Instead of taking the time to dial in my UI, write installation instructions, package it up, upload it to the site, and write this post, I opted to just “play the game” in my spare time. After all, what good is having a site like this if you don’t actually have time to play. 😉

Well, the waiting is over. I finally got off my ass, err… well I’m still on my ass, but at least I’ve managed to upload my UI as I’d promised months ago.

About The Garwulf UI

This UI is designed to perform in about any environment. My primary focus is on PvP Battlegrounds and Arena, but this UI will work just fine for any actively raiding Hunter.

The idea behind it was to keep everything tight and orgainized at the bottom of the screen. Before I started working with more addons and was using the deafult Blizzard UI, I was always frustrated with the placement of various addons such as  Omen, Recount, and the DBM timers, not to mention the 2 action bars on the right side of my screen. Since I played so long with the default UI I got used to that layout. I tried other configurations of the unit frames, map, etc, but it always confused me so I just stuck with what I was used to as far as placement.

Coming soon: The new and improved UI 2.0

I’m currently working on a new user interface since I accidentally trashed my old one. I had to completely uninstall World of Warcraft from my computer prior to installing Wrath of the Lich King (I had serious issues – long story…), and I neglected to save my wtf folder with the addon preferences in it. Not a huge deal, as now I’ve reassembled all of the mods I can’t live without, discovered a few new gems, and left anything out …
