MazzleUI updated for 2.4
MazzleUI updated for 2.4 Eliah Hecht
If you're a common browser of the WoW General Forums, you're well aware of the constant barrage of keyloggers that show up far more quickly than Blizzard can shut them down. You might have also noticed that many of them come from the .cn (China) domain. It may not be completely your imaginations, as McAfee's testing reports that 11.8% of all .cn domains are full of bad stuff.
It actually only came in second, behind the .hk (Hong Kong) domain. 19.2% of .hk websites came up with a red or yellow alert. Both .hk and .cn surpassed last year's most risky domain, .tk (Tokelau), which had a 10.8% rate of risky sites in the 2007 report (and has only a 1.43% rate this year). Even generic domain types got in on the action. 5.26% of .com sites tested red or yellow, as did 11.8% of all .info sites.
Some of you may remember me gushing over MazzleUI back in the day, when it first came out of private beta. In short, it's an extremely coherent and well-designed UI compilation, that aims to be lightweight and efficient while still being complete and feature-filled. However, its long-suffering author, Mazzlefizz, quit wow gold at a certain point, and MazzleUI started to become plagued with incompatibilities as wow gold went through its normal patching process. No more! Docevl has come and rescued this lovely UI from the dust, and it's now all patched-up and ready for 2.4.2. I just installed it myself and it worked pretty faultlessly.
Of course, I did have to bring over a few AddOns from my previous UI (13 of them, in fact), since Mazz isn't meant to be all things to all people, and I have several that I've gotten very used too that aren't included (like MetaHud and TBag). And there are a few things you'll probably want to change from the default configuration:
- Set the text size to Large or Mr Magoo, unless you keep a magnifying glass by your monitor (or it has fewer pixels per inch than mine).
- Be sure and prevent it from yelling garbage about "mazzlegasms" (seriously) by setting the appropriate menu to "Bite your lip and keep it in" at the end of configuration. Those around you will thank you.
I actually ended up going back to my cobbled-together UI after not too long with Mazz, because I prefer something that uses minimal screen space and I don't need all the machinery that Mazz brings. I've also gotten very used to my setup. But if you want an all-in-one package, this is one of the best ones out there.
