What does it do?
Ever wanted to know when a certain ability will come off cooldown, but you're too caught up in a fight to notice? Doom_CooldownPulse is designed to fix that problem! It flashes the icon of the ability in the middle of your screen whenever it becomes usable again.
Great! Now.. how do I set it up?
Doom_CooldownPulse requires no initial setup; just install and you're good to go! However, the options frame (which is accessable by typing /dcp) allows very easy customization. You can change all of the following:
- Icon size
- Icon position (press the unlock button)
- Fade in time
- Fade out time
- Max opacity (transparency)
- Max opacity hold time
- Animation scaling (how big/small it gets when it flashes)
- Cooldowns to ignore
- Overlay color for pet cooldown pulses
It is intended to be very easy to customize, and your changes take effect immediately. You can see how your settings will look by pressing the "Test" button, or reset them to the default settings by pressing the "Defaults" button.
Isn't this very similar to another addon, JIM's Cooldown Pulse?
Yes, the concept was originally developed by JIM. However, JIM has since gone MIA due to his new job and no longer updates his addon. I was able to get in touch with him, and he is very much supportive of DoomCooldownPulse. DoomCooldownPulse is neither an updated version nor a direct clone, but instead an alternative option with the same concept.
Hey man love the addon! Just one small problem - when a cooldown gets reduced like when overpower reduces mortal strikes cooldown DCP will not react and display the cooldown later than it should.
Thanks a lot for the update, that was damn fast :D
Ok so I had issues with doom since 8.2 dropped. This is totally my update I made to have it work and not throw errors. Basically, in 8.2, the playsoundfile api changed so you could not place the path.
So go to your doom pulse lua file, open it up, and look for where ti says playsoundfile. Mine looked like this: PlaySoundFile("Interface\\AddOns\\Doom_CooldownPulse\\lubdub.wav"). I changed mine to say PlaySound(852) instead and the addon worked.
If you want to use a different sound can check here for the IDs: https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-source/blob/live/SharedXML/SoundKitConstants.lua
Anyways that was my bandaid fix, I'm sure another way would be to have it not play a sound at all, but I dunno how to do that.
Hope this helps someone.
Hi, getting a lot of errors after 8.2.0, is there a chance for an update? thanks a lot !
A lot of thanks... this is what i was searching for
Hey, great addon i have only one problem. Im hunter and my pet has ability called "Claw" which has 3s cd and it just spamms my screen. I tried to put it on Cooldowns to ignore but that doesnt work (probably because its a pet, my other abilities on that list work). Is there anything you can do about it ?
Thanks
Frost mage water elementel's FREEZE doesn't show up in BFA.
Is there a fix for it?
I second what meeporonga said. Outlaw Rogue also has a passive that finishing moves reduce the CD of several abilities by 1 second per combo point spent. This ends up with the addon being WAY off.
If this could be fixed we would be extremely grateful.
The CD timer does not allow for the tick of the spell to complete before it shows complete
The cooldown pulse does not show when there is a cooldown reset. Example: Mistweaver monk, every Blackout Kick has a chance to reset the cooldown of Rising Sun Kick. When Blackout Kick resets the cooldown of Rising Sun Kick, the Pulse shows then the real timer of Rising Sun Kick should be, and ignores the reset of the cooldown, if this can be fixed, will be great. Thank you

Pls set to 7.3
Im Menü kann man nichts Einstellen !
for patch 7.3 at this time of writing
On line 422 change
PlaySound("igMainMenuOption")
to
PlaySound(850)
that will fix the error you get when you press any button in the settings window.
Wont let me mess with the settings in game when i do /dcp. Cant unlock it and move it back to the middle of the screen. Have deleted the addon and re-downloaded it and still getting the same
7.3.0 fix
Open Doom_CooldownPulse.lua with any editor tool like notepad.
Line422:PlaySound("igMainMenuOption")
->replace to
PlaySound(852)
Line366: local newState = (self:GetChecked() == 1) or nil
->replace to
local newState;if self:GetChecked() then newState=true else newState=false end
thx mate, worked for me
If you just ignore Cooldown affected by Artifacts Sets and just use it for like Prayer of Mending or a short cooldown you want to make sure you have up its still useful
what a shame that id does not work anymore. i loved this addon
