Headline (Nameplates)  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: r13
by: senomar [More]

Very lightweight nameplates addon.

Nameplates for hostile players are classcolored.

Nameplates for hostile mob's are threatcolored in combat!
green: low or no threat
yellow: medium threat
red: aggro

/headline for basic settings:
- height
- width
- font size
- level display
- amplified target

Since this is a forked overhead: credits to p3lim.

r13
- removed 4.0.1a obsolete hook
r12
- option to amplify target
r10+11
- bugfixes
r9
- toggle level via /headline level
r8
- bars are threatcolored for hostile mobs in combat only. so, hostile mobs are red out of combat
r7
- moved the raid icons to a saner position
r6
- basic settings via /headline
r5
- fixes
r4
- fixed theatplates on mobs
r3
- wow 4.0.1 fixes

ja bei normalen mobs ist die balkenfarbe der aggro-level. von grün "alles ok", über gelb, bis rot "aggro". mit deiner änderung hast du jetzt nur noch rote balken für mobs.

mobs die dich nicht angreifen haben nen gelben balken.

die aggro-farbe ist zugegeben solo am anfang ungewöhnlich, aber in instanzen schon recht nice. so sieht man zb sehr schnell ob man zb bei adds aggro hat oder halt net.

for non-german folks: just told him that hostile mobs are threatcolored.

I don´t want to "change" your addon in a big way, it´s just another color i want to see there.

Dont know whats your problem. I´m not asking for other scripts, forms, fonts, textures or anything else...
and what exactly is holding you back from changing it to your liking?
dig the lua line 80 changes the background color.

From my pov this thing is feature complete.
Do you want other colors? Dig the lua. Do you want a combat toggle? Get yourself PlateSpinner or something. Do you want 101 more features? Get yourself another addon.

Headline will stay lightweight and minimalistic. No level info, no castbar xy-features, no boss skulls, whatever.

To mess with height, width and the font size, type /headline

Great addon. Glad someone finally made a simple clean but functional plate. Thanks! Cael's was ok but this is better. Look forward to helping test.

hi, im moving to this from cael nameplates wich i liked for its minimalistic look, and i decided to use this one which in my opinion looks better.
Now, before the patch i remember Cael Nameplates would just popup nameplates when i enter combat and remove em when exiting combat, is this mod able to do this? or i have to keep em toggled on all the time? So far i couldnt manage to figure out how to make it do this.

thanks for any info.

No, I'm not using PlateBuffs.
Castbar on Nameplates is also disabled.

blizzard standard nameplates have bugs since 4.x. i get this sometimes too. there is nothing i can do right now.

But apart from that it's a very nice mod!
