PlateBuffs

Version: 1.11.0

by: Cyprias, acapela

4.1 update Acapela (aloft's developer) and Archarodim (Healers have to die) assisted in getting PlateBuffs working for 4.1, please send your thanks to them.

PlateBuffs (PB) displays people's buffs above their nameplates.

Future plans

Known issues

PB breaks Skinner's nameplate skin. Explanation here

FAQ:
Q) Will PlateBuffs work on mobs?
A) Yes. but since mobs can share the same name you'll need to target or mouseover the nameplate so PlateBuffs can determine which nameplate belongs to what mob. Once that nameplate disappears from the screen and reappears you'll need to mouseover/target again.
Q) What's the question mark for?
A) It can mean 2 things. 1) We don't know what mob that nameplate belongs to, 2) We don't know what spells are on that mob/player. In both cases you need to target/mouseover the nameplate.
Q) Will PB work with non default nameplates?
A) PB should work with Tidy Plates, Aloft, dNameplates and caelNameplates. PB may or may not work with other nameplate addons.
Q) Can I have specific buff options?
A) Yes. Open PlateBuff's options (/pb) and go to the Specific Spells menu. In there you can add spells and choose always/mine/never show, icon size and cooldown text size. Some spells are added by default to have large icons.
Q) Why do spells blink?
A) Spells will blink if there's less then 20% of the time remaining.
Q) Can you add a clockwise cooldown overlay to the spell icons?
A) Unfortunately the clock cooldown doesn't work well on frames that are constantly moving around the screen. It tends to disappear while the frame's moving and only appear when the icon's perfectly still. So as soon as you move, they move or your camera moves (including breathing up and down motion) the overlay disappears. Sorry.
Q) What do all these spells in the Specific Spells list do?
A) If you're unfamiliar on what spells do what effects, enable the Add Spell Description option on the main screen. That will add a spell icon and spell description to each of the spells. When enabled, PlateBuffs' memory usage will go up around 2MB (memory usage only impacts login/load time, not FPS).
Q) How do I turn off all buffs except those on my Specific Spells list?
A) In PlateBuffs' options, set both "Show Buffs" and "Show Debuffs" to none.

here is my question: is there a way to view ONLY 4 debuff?
explanation: i want to see only druid HoT like Lifebloom, Rejuvenation, Regrowth, Wild Growth.
this would be very nice to switch in arena to a player without hot -> more chanche to kill.

thanks mate
ps: sorry for my bad english

Go into the PlateBuff options (/pb) then into the Specific Spells list and input the name into the list. The name is case sensitive. Once it's added it'll show up in the list and by default always show on their nameplate.

I think so. Add Essence of the Blood Queen to the specific spells list then, if a player/mob has that buff/debuff it will be shown on their nameplate.

TOoKs A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	I have made a small fix and this addon work again The problem is some totems have disapear and the addon is looking for their ID. You have to change at line 228 in PlateBuffs\core.lua: Code: totems[name] = texture by: Code: if name then totems[name] = texture; end Of course, the best solution will be to update the totem list.

I just uploaded a alpha to the WoWAce page. I cannot login to WoW so I can't confirm if the update works. Once some people say it loads ingame I'll upload it to WoWInterface.

DL the PlateBuffs-r179.zip and extract the zip to your addons folder.

Would allow me to track mutilate debuff from my tank buddy without having all other players debuffs on the nameplate. Would make it better to track crowd control from a pve point at least (stun valkyr \o/ : ) nice addon btw

You mean only show your friend's mutilate and no other person's mutilate spell?
