Displays a dot that moves left-to-right to indicate the global cooldown, and hides when GCD is not active.
NOTE: From 0.2.3-beta, it now uses Bar 1 Button 1 by default, and aligns it with the castbar. Feel free to change these later using the script commands below.
GCDPulse obtains the information about the GCD in a similar way to GCDisplay, in that it needs to check an action button. You can change the button it checks by typing these commands into the chat window:
/script GCDPulse.Settings.bar = <number>
/script GCDPulse.Settings.button = <number>
From v1.0.0, there is a configuration UI which is accessible by typing
/gcdpulse
if you have LibSlash, or if you don't, then use
/script GCDPulse.OpenConfig()
If you prefer using /script commands to configure, then read on.
By default, GCDPulse will be aligned to the bottom of your castbar. You can use the Layout Editor to move it wherever you like, and resize it horizontally. If you want to easily place it under the castbar again, you can use:
/script GCDPulse.MoveToCastbar()
To hide/show the little dots that mark the start/end (i.e. the "caps"), use:
/script GCDPulse.SetCapsShowing(false)
/script GCDPulse.SetCapsShowing(true)
To change the tint colour of the background, caps, or pulse, use the following commands, where "red", "green" and "blue" are numbers from 0 to 255:
/script GCDPulse.SetBackgroundTint(red, green, blue)
/script GCDPulse.SetCapsTint(red, green, blue)
/script GCDPulse.SetPulseTint(red, green, blue)
To change how transparent/opaque the background bar is, you can use the following command, where "alpha" is a value from 0 (completely transparent) to 1.0 (completely opaque):
/script GCDPulse.SetBackgroundAlpha(alpha)

Installation Guide
- Exit "Warhammer Online" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Verify your WAR Installation Path
That is where you are running WAR from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your Warhammer Online folder. (default is C:\Program Files\Warhammer Online\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start Warhammer Online
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of WAR. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
