Description
CC Alert
Lightweight, on-screen alerts for important crowd-control casts.
CC Alert shows a clear, central icon and optional sound whenever a tracked CC begins casting—so you can stop it, pre-wall, or call it out fast.
Core features
-
Instant visual alert: Big, centered spell icon with a standard Blizzard overlay glow.
-
Curated default list (locked): Common, high-impact CCs are always active and shown grayed out in the list, so you can’t accidentally remove them.
-
Your custom list on top: Add any spell IDs you want. Non-default entries can be freely added/removed without touching the locked defaults.
-
Optional sound cue: Play a short audio ping when an alert triggers (toggle in options).
-
Simple sizing & placement: Drag to position; adjust icon size with a slider. Overlay glow auto-updates with size changes.
-
Zero clutter UI: Clean options panel with a live preview of the spells being tracked.
Smart behavior
-
Event-driven: Uses Blizzard cast events for responsiveness with minimal overhead.
-
Always in sync: The alert’s overlay glow follows your size/scale changes automatically.
-
Safe defaults: Defaults are merged into your list on load and when saving, so you never lose the essentials.
