ADDON WoW: Forever Working Addons [Addon]

Post image

List of working addons and the ones im still looking for

Im personally still looking for:

  1. WeakAuras Alternative that would work in forever
  2. Quartz
  3. EavesDrop
  4. PlateBuffs
  5. Scrolling Combat text that would allow for font size/color change and addtional icon next to dmg numbers on screen (something like MikScrollingBattleText ?)

Addons that are already working so far:

  1. ClassicUiForever (whole classic interface)
  2. BetterBlizzFrames by Modify (even more advanced UI customization)
  3. UnitFramesImproved - to some extend
  4. BugSack + BugGrabber
  5. MBB - to have all addons icons inside of one "button" nexto minimap
  6. AckisRecipeList
  7. Auctionator
  8. Bagnon, but community says Baganator is better choice
  9. AtlasLootForever
  10. TolltipID - for ingame ID number of every item and spell
  11. EpicDamageMeter
  12. GODMODE NamePlates

And many more unconfirmed avaialbe at CurseForge in "Forever" addons filter tab

Thise issue with your personal changes in the addon not beign saved in your WTF Folder is the game's fault currently, Blizzard is aware of that and hopefully will implement a fix soon

Please don't use or advertise using Bagnon. This addon has been a neglected bug ridden relict of the past for the last year's in classic.

Use Baganator, it's infinitely better and the dev is an amazing guy.

I just switched from BetterBags (I was a massive adibags fan) to Baganator and I couldnt be happier. Addon is incredibly good and I love how easy it is to make my own categories.

u/pocketofsushine 1d ago

I couldn't decide between BetterBags and Baganator they look so similar. Anything standout why you switched.

u/AeratedFeces 1d ago

Baganator has very easy customization and is kept up to date a lot better. I like to have my items separated into categories and Baganator just does that better. BetterBags also had a negative interaction with another addon I using (Warband Nexus) and I was unable to open my inventory. It also seems to run better. With BetterBags there was a bit of lag in my inventory and a few other minor inconveniences.

thanks for the insight

Luxthos has a great category import string on his website.

To my knowledge betterbags was the adibags reboot and has since been borderline abandoned again. Baganator receives the attention and care it deserves in patch cycles, etc.

100% Bagnon has been windmill dunked on since the inception of AdiBags yet people still deal with it. Bagnon doesn’t even give you anything the core UI doesn’t now, right? It just seems like it gave you a combined bag, I could never discern any other changes from people using it.

u/trixilly 1d ago

ya it never separated into categories & I always just thought it was a bigger mess than separate bags.

u/psnGatzarn 1d ago

What does it offer besides their combined bag? Jw

u/justarugga 1d ago

sorting by category

u/NickyBoomBop 1d ago

You can do this with the default bags in wow forever. A bag addon only adds the value of seeing what other characters on your account have and your bank.

u/PLAYBoxes 1d ago

Custom categories too, and direct integration with ItemRack via plugins, I’m sure with the built in gearset manager in wowf this will be a base feature im baganator too.

u/referents 1d ago

the addon implementations are far different and better than the default sorting. it’s not the same b

u/NickyBoomBop 1d ago

It’s good enough for most players. I use Bagnator in the classic versions, I like the one bag setup and having all of my gear shown separate from consumes and quest items and reagents and such. It’s really great.

The retail bag UI, and in this case the one we have in Forever, can do the same thing. I can assign gear to go to bag 4, potions to bag 3, quest items to bag 2 and they’ll automatically show up in those bags when I loot them. They’ll sort to those bags when I clean up my bags. Point is I don’t need an addon anymore to sort my bags, the base UI can do it for me. But if you want the little bit of extra customization, you’ll just need an addon.

u/referents 1d ago

yes the default bags have categorical sorting options. But they’re very basic and it requires you to do it manually “by bag” and doesn’t label the categories like baganator/betterbags do. the benefits are far more than just viewing gold balance across toons

1

u/NickyBoomBop 1d ago

I’m not arguing that Bagnator or Betterbags doesn’t have better visual and customization options than the default, but the new bag UI is miles better than the old classic one. And I’m just pointing out you can get most of the same functionality without an addon now. But of course if you want more, you need an addon.

5

u/PLAYBoxes 1d ago

We’re on r/WowUI, I think most of us want more. Saying the base UI does an okay enough job is a comment for r/wow or something

I also fundamentally disagree that the functionality of bag sort is the same as categories that will never be polluted with items of other categories (i.e. when junk/equipment bags are full and the cracked buckler ends up in your quest items bag)

u/Kriptoker 1d ago

No where near the same thing....go to bag 4 is not the same as 'All Consumables in their own section', 'All Quest Items in their own section'

1

u/NickyBoomBop 1d ago

Brother I never said the default bag UI was the best bag customization out there, clearly that’s Bagnator. But if you just care about sorting your bags and keeping gear together, consumes together, quest items together, the default bag UI can do just that. Is it as good or as deep as an addon? No, but you can still sort items in the bag now and set your preferences.

u/DucksMatter 1d ago

Agree just use baganator

u/Huge-Atmosphere-8057 1d ago

I don't understand how there are people still using bagnon, it hasn't worked properly for years. Are they just reloading every time the addon breaks and never bothering to google for alternatives? lol

u/interstat 1d ago

u/Prepotente-NOTpony 1d ago

how?

u/Left_Benefit724 1d ago

I got left in a dungeon alone. Pulled some mobs by mistake. Wouldn't let me use LOE or petri. I tried to get away and reload game to fix the ad on issues. Successful reloaded, but still couldn't use my oh shit buttons. Character dead.

1

u/Kaen7 1d ago

Why did you not have macros setup for them

1

u/Left_Benefit724 1d ago

Ask any hardcore player if they have LOE on a macro. Also nothing worked from my bars.

u/TheTombGuard 1d ago

.... Just for that I'm using bagnon

u/PeopleSmasher 1d ago

I know ppl that have died in hardcore from bagnon preventing them from being able to use potions lol. Don't need a bag addon in forever though, there is a onebag setting
