ColorBlindExtras WoW addon

The "ColorBlindExtras" World-of-Warcraft (WoW) addon that allows the player to customize which in-game Colorblind behavior.  The options are are set from the in-game addon options gui.  A typically usage maybe that player may only want the loot item rarity text to be displayed in the loot tip frame and does not want any of the other colorblind changes to money or other. 

The addon also extends the colorblind UI changes to include other changes that the prior colorblind solution had before Blizzard added their in-game solution.  A popular option is to display both the colorized money coins with text chars on them. 

ColorBlindExtras's official distribution site is here.

  • Use Blizzards color blind mode by default

  • Use Blizzards combo color blind solution
  • Change red combo dots to white
  • Show quest level number
