I would like to go back to ElvUI but I was wondering if there had been any "improvements" to it's stability. My LUA errors mostly disappeared, along with the occasional but "horrendous-blue-screen-of-death-gotta-run-memchecker" screens that would pop up. I didn't want to but I didn't see any other choice.
I was having all sorts of LUA errors back before Christmas and I decided on removing ElvUI and basically resetting everything back to BlizzBasics.
What I would do there is make a copy of the interface and wtf folders to keep your ElvUI settings intact and then if the addons clash or you simply do not like them you can change back to your previous interface just by renaming the folders rather than trying to delete the other addons and fix anything that could have been tainted by both being installed. If it's fine then continue on playing and after a couple weeks when you are satisfied with the results you can delete the folders you renamed.įor adding other addons to ElvUI you should be pretty much fine unless both ElvUI and the addon you are attempting to use try to do the same functions, like adding bartender for the action bars as ElvUI already has something like that built in. Load your addons into them and see how things work.
After you have done that exit the game and the interface and wtf folders will have been recreated. The stability issues in ElvUI itself should be pretty well ironed out by now so I would say go ahead but to keep your current settings intact what I would do is go to your WoW directory and rename the "interface" and "WTF" folders to something like "interface old" and "WTF old" and then start the WoW client and log in to a character.

If it does not show any errors after running some full scans overnight then look to the OS or drivers, which to correct may require a reinstall.Īs per the addons, I do not know anything specifically about ElvUI but all addons have their issues after a major patch so that was likely what ended up happening there.

Something that is free and easy to use is: If you are having BSOD's you really should figure out what is going on there as any addon which can add to the memory usage can cause more problems.
#Elvui addons included how to
Could updating an addon outside of ElvUI from Curse have caused issues with the UI? There seem to be a great number of videos on how to change and modify Elv but I was wondering if there are very specific steps to take to ensure a good stable download and subsequent updates and if 3rd party addons are compatible.
I did not download the DK addon's from Tuk but from Curse. Also, I had downloaded a few of the DK specific addons to try them out and when I looked on Tuk's website I didn't see any information on how to handle additional addons and updates for them.
