Your rotation, read from the pixels

Pixelcast plays your DPS rotation from SimC APLs. A small addon draws the game state as a block of pixels; Pixelcast reads them and presses your own key binds. 27 DPS specs, each with a tuned Pixelcast APL. Updates install by themselves.

Free to download; a key starts the rotation.

Three parts, one loop

Pixelcast never reads the game's memory and injects nothing into it. The addon only paints pixels, and Pixelcast only looks at them and presses keys, as you would.

STEP 1

The addon paints the state

PixelcastBridge draws cooldowns, buffs, resources and nearby enemies as coloured cells in the top-left corner of your screen.

STEP 2

Pixelcast follows the APL

Many times a second it decodes the cells and asks your spec's APL what to cast next, line by line, the way SimC does.

STEP 3

Your key binds do the rest

It presses the key you bound to that spell. Cooldowns, defensives, interrupts, potions and movement follow your toggles.

27 DPS specs, 13 classes

Every spec comes with a Pixelcast APL tuned from SimC's, plus SimC's own default. You can import or write your own APL too. Tank specs are in the works.

Built for playing, not babysitting

Set it up once per class, then play. F8 pauses and resumes at any time.

In-game bar

A slim strip in WoW shows RUN or PAUSED, with toggles for cooldowns, defensives, interrupts, potions and movement.

Class settings

Defensives at the health % you pick, buffs, pets and poisons. Set once per class.

Switch on the fly

Change APL or spec without stopping. If WoW needs a /reload, Pixelcast says so and carries on by itself.

Updates itself

A new version installs when you switch class or spec, or at the next start. Never in the middle of a fight.

Help that starts from facts

Questions

Does it read game memory or inject code?

No. The addon is a normal WoW addon that draws pixels. Pixelcast reads those pixels from the screen and presses the keys you bound.

What do I need?

Windows 10 or 11 and WoW retail (Midnight 12.1). Put your spells on action bars with key binds. Keep the top-left corner of WoW uncovered, keep the UI shown, and turn off HDR, Night light and colour filters.

Tanks and healers?

Pixelcast plays the 27 DPS specs today. Tank APLs are in the works. Healers are not supported.

What does Pixelcast send?

The licence check sends your key and an anonymous ID for your PC. If Pixelcast hits an error, it sends a small anonymous error report: version, spec, the error and recent log lines without character names. Send report only uploads when you click it. Reports are deleted after 30 days.

New PC?

A key works on one PC at a time. Moving it to a new PC is limited; if you get stuck, open a ticket on Discord.
