Vanilla Consolidate Buff-Frames (VCB)
What is VCB?
Vanilla Consolidate Buff-Frames (VCB) is a smart system to manage your auras. The AddOn provides a lot functions to customize it to your tastes and adds a lot of helpful functions for a better overview, which is its purpose in the first place anyway.
What are the advantages with VCB?
- A better overview for your auras due to consolidation
- Never reach the aura cap because of useless auras that you don't need anyway with the Banning-System
- Each frame is movable, independently from each other
- Display even potential buffs, either grayed out or/and as number on the icon
- Display more than 16 buffs
- Customize the frames to your personal tastes
- Nearly everything is customizable

Supporting
This is AddOn has become very huge and for one person a gigantic task.
To keep this AddOn Up-To-Date, performant, clean and bugfree, I need your help!
You can help in many ways:
- Report Bugs, tell me how to reproduce them and improve everyones experience
- Give your opinion about the AddOn and point out ideas in the forum threads (Nostalrius / Kronos)
- Some localizations are still missing, and since some functions require this, it is an important task and deserves a lot of thanks. If you are a native speaker of following languages and willing to contribute to this project then copy this form and post it in one of those threads. (Nostalrius / Kronos)
Following languages are still missing: Spanish(esEs), Spanish(Mexican)(esMX), French(frFR), Italian(itIT), Korean(koKR), Portuguese(ptBR), Russian(ruRU), Chinese(zhCN), Chinese(Taiwan)(zhTW) - If you play on Kronos you can donate Gold to Shino (on Alliance). By that I can invest more time in programming instead farming consumables.
Everyone who contributes to this will be mentioned in the About Tab of the AddOn for an permanent time!
