KillingBlow_Enhanced
Last Updated: Jul 27, 2018 Game Version: 8.0.1
Description
This AddOn shows an image and plays a sound when you get a killing blow. When in a battleground, only killing blows on players are recorded; but all killing blows are recorded outside of battlegrounds.
You can configure the AddOn by editing the options at the top of core.lua in a text editor. This lets you enable/disable the printing of your current KB total to the chat frame and choose whether the AddOn works everywhere or only in BGs.
You can also change the texture and the sound. The AddOn includes three textures: an Alliance crest, a Horde crest and a picture of the Horde/Alliance battleground flags.
The KB total is reset whenever you go through a loading screen (e.g. when you enter/leave a battleground).
Source Code
You can view the AddOn's source code on GitHub.

Posted Jul 27, 2018How do I get this to work only in PvP situations, including WPvP? I set "local PVP_ONLY" to false but now its triggering on NPC kills. I just want it to trigger on player killing blows regardless of location. Is there any way to do this?

Posted Aug 11, 2016You should really add some options (at the very least slash commands) to change the configurable options like only in battlegrounds.
Also, why have world pvp disabled by default? Anyone who wants this would probably not mind it out in the wild.

Posted Aug 12, 2016I probably won't be adding any major features like in-game configuration, I'm mostly just keeping this updated.
World PvP should already be enabled by default (i.e. PVP_ONLY set to false). Was this not the case for you?

Posted Jan 7, 2016There's only one killing blow sound included in the AddOn.
If you want to add your own, put it somewhere in your WoW directory and change the SOUND_PATH option in core.lua to point to it. This option is the path of the sound relative to the root WoW directory (the one with Wow.exe in it), using double backslashes as directory separators.
core.lua can be opened in any text editor (e.g. Notepad), but using one with syntax highlighting (e.g. one of these) will make it easier to read.

Posted Nov 13, 2015I know this is still working, but listed as an "out of date" module. Any chance of issuing an update?
Thanks!

Posted Sep 7, 2015It's possible, but it's a bit of a pain.
I may do it at some point, but it's not a high priority at the moment.

Posted Aug 20, 2015hi, is it possible to remove the image in the middle, when you kill someone?
it's really blocking the view when you're fighting 2 people at the same time.

Posted Aug 20, 2015Set ALLIANCE_TEXTURE_PATH and HORDE_TEXTURE_PATH to "" (two quotation marks, i.e. an empty string) at the top of core.lua.

Posted Jul 5, 2015Create the WoW\Interface\AddOns\KillingBlowImage directory and put your TGA in it. Then change the ALLIANCE_TEXTURE_PATH or HORDE_TEXTURE_PATH variables to match it.
If your image is WoW\Interface\AddOns\KillingBlowImage\Fatality.tga, you can set it as the Alliance texture by chaning this:
local ALLIANCE_TEXTURE_PATH = "Interface\\AddOns\\KillingBlow_Enhanced\\KillingBlow_Alliance"
To this:
local ALLIANCE_TEXTURE_PATH = "Interface\\AddOns\\KillingBlowImage\\Fatality"
