Introduction

It's purpose is simple. When you do the /dance emote a song will start playing and the song will stop when you start moving again. The song that is played is determined by your character model.

For an idea on how it looks see this video http:www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgK6GmG2OTU

Adding Music

To add your songs you will have to place them in the "/Interface/Addons/DanceMusic/Music" folder. The songs must be in ogg or mp3 format.

TIP #1: If you use an add-on auto updater use the alternate music directory instead and run "/dancemusic altdir" once per server, to prevent deletion of songs.
TIP #2: Use "/dancemusic showsong" before dancing to display file name for current model.
TIP #3: For inspiration on songs to use you can browse around YouTube a bit for the WoW dance videos.
This is a good one http:www.youtube.com/watch?v=066_q4DIeqk
NOTE: SongFiles must be in the folder before launching WoW or they will not work

NOTE: To avoid copyright issues DanceMusic is distributed without any songs

History

Dancemusic is the first addon Robsato wrote, mainly to get a feeling of how making addons works.
It is also the first addon ShetiPhian ever worked on, starting with a fan update.
