Classic ThreatMeter

Version: 1.5.6a

by: Xabora [More]

Allows you to see the threat bars Blizzard had originally implemented in WoW, but disabled and removed with a patch down the road.

Uses:
As DPS you can use this to see your threat on the current DPS target.
As a healer you can see how much your heals are adding to your threat.
As a Tank you can keep accurate watch on your aggro and the next 4 players.

There is a second Threat Meter that only shows when you have a Focus Target.
As a tank this is useful so you can keep tabs on multiable mobs.

Six Modes of Threat Display:
Easy Threat
Percentage
Actual Threat (Short)
Actual Threat (Long)
Threat Per Second
Threat Per Minute

Installation is simple.
Extract into your Addons directory and load up WoW WoTLK 3.0 or WoW LIVE 3.0 and start Dungeon Running and Raiding.

Therigwin A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 44 Uploads: 1	Yup Yup I really am liking this one. Was a big fan of Diamond Threat, but this is much more cleaner. The only thing that would be nice is to add the additional meters - Focus Threat and Overall Threat on all mobs. But right now this is the threat meter for WotLK

You should see if among other user Addons as 'Classic Threatmeter'. EDIT: Yes LOOSING is a typo. Last edited by Xabora : 10-03-08 at 10:55 AM.

Thanks

It should work with them since it only checks for combat.
However I've only tested it with the default frames.

As for 3.0, that's required.
(WoTLK Beta, WoW 3.0 PTR, or the soon to come WoW 3.0 Live)

As of right now, it does not.
Since it pulls threat data from the server in realtime.

Just 1 thing i noticed while playing on my hunter: When you select a mob and send in your pet before you shoot of an arrow the meters will not appear untill i deselect the target and then select it again. Otherwise it has everything one needs ! Last edited by Haldon : 10-16-08 at 01:59 AM.

Thanks,
I've also corrected the issue you described.

So it'll be in the next update.

hypehuman A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 17 File comments: 87 Uploads: 8	Improvements! I modified this to add an option to show the exact amount of threat you need to gain in order to taunt the mob (or if you have aggro, the amount you would need to lose in order to drop aggro). In doing this, I noticed that the percentage value used in the mod (which comes from the UnitDetailedThreatSituation function) was slightly inaccurate (see my post for more details). In the case that a non-group-member is taunting, this cannot be remedied. However, if a group member has aggro on the mob, a more accurate percentage can be calculated, allowing me to calculate my "threat needed" values down to the individual threat point. Are you interested in seeing my files? I heard there is a way to upload spinoffs on wowinterface. I put comments in all the places where I made changes.

I currently have this enabled to my knowledge.
"Optional Files" iirc.

EDIT: After reading what you described...
Looks like this spans all ThreatMeters that pull the data from the call.

Yeah, it's an annoying problem. I posted a bug report if you wanna check it out or add to it.

EDIT: I just noticed that I was working with version 1.5.2, and you're already on 1.5.6. I put the modifications into 1.5.6 and now uploaded that version
