Tried doing this myself but I have no brain for coding whatsoever. Meh.
Could anybody provide a tiny, simple mod which hooks rightclicking so if I rightclick on a spell I can cast on myself, it casts it on me (without dropping my target, losing any combopoints, etc)?
I've looked into selfcast mods already, but they all work on the "selfcast if you have a hostile target selected or no target, otherwise cast on the friendly target selected" principle, while what I want is the ability to selfcast (via rightclick) no matter what I have selected, with leftclick = cast on target functionality left intact.
i still use the first one - well, cause it works 100% and does nothing else but add right-click selfcasting - without interfering with any of my other cast mods at all
I just posted a new addon called SoloCast that works differently than the norm. It will self-cast if you have a hostile targeted and are in combat (togglable) and/or self-cast when you double-tap (or double-click) the spell.
i'd think about right-click vs double click, because several mods have a 'click once to cast, click again to cancel' function, so you dont hvae to strafe/jump to cancel a spellcast.
Once you use right click casting it makes so much sense its hard to imagine it any other way.
I was pretty sure the old method of right-click self casting wouldn't be possible, and it isn't using rSelfCast. If you use it in combat, your actionbar buttons will stop working.
Last edit. Got a blue response saying that you can do this to perform right-click casting on the default frames: MainMenuBarArtFrame:SetAttribute("unit2", "player"); I've adapted this technique to work for Bartender3, and I've attached it.
Right, done my best to attempt to get it working and stop throwing errors - and i think i did... unfortunately on PTR i get the message "rSelfCast has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI."
In other words, I probably farked up somewhere, so if someone has a version that works for them on PTR (confirmed working), please do let us all know, and if possible upload it. At the very least try to document the changes you made for it to work (seen the above changes, still no help).
I fear very much that right click selfcasting will fall under the "decursive nerf", as it allows the player to rapidly switch target and cast a spell with a single click.

Ok, i was under the impression that someone had it working. I have a beta key, so I'll start work on this.
@Sylvanaar:
Please excuse my stupidity, and maybe laziness ... i didn't try it yet, but tried to understand the code.
And didn't really understand how it can be that simple when selfcast addons need sometimes 100 lines.
Is it TBC only with future API ?
(sorry, don't have TBC beta account)
Btw thanks for it ^^
I'll give it a try tomorrow, between two debug or localization sessions :p

It just is that easy. The functionality is really built into the 2.0 client. The addon is just 3 lines of script you could execute in a macro - but this way it gets done for you.

Help? *hopeful look*
EasyPriest - SelfCast
I dont know why, but some addons can break the "absolute selfcast", you'll then have to find what one breaks epSC and delete it ...

It turns out it was an unauthorized fork of this original which was maintained up until 1.11.

Someone already suggested I add right-click support, so maybe I'll hoark some code from these addons. :)

Curse PremiumOnce you use right click casting it makes so much sense its hard to imagine it any other way.
EP_SelfCast is outdated and the newest one has many feature I don't use (and don't want to use).
rSelfCast is just straight and simple: add right-click self Cast, that's all.

Curse PremiumMight as well wait for 2.0 to do it, but I agree totally.
I ran FixAddOns on it, then change these lines :
to
It seems to work (not quite sure though).

I know it's quite different from Bartender purpose, but it's awesome and have nice features/ui.
