can anyone tell me if there is a way to change only the texture of nameplates? i was able to do that using skinner addon but yesterday it stopped working. now i see like 90% nameplates with cael texture and rest 10% with mine chosen in skinner and even then when i run away and come back the texture changes back.

I just love those minimalistic nameplates.
Is there any posiblillity to cange the border color of the frame (like it was done with the thread) when the mob is <20% life ? I saw some coding in the lua but was unable to make it work.

Terribly constructed question as I was about to start raiding as I posted. Starting from fresh:

If I wanted to implement a custom .tga for the texture (for example, I want to emulate bantobar), should I simply create a simple texture or is there a custom method for creating the bitmap. I notice that the glowtex file isn't just a simple texture but a texture with multiple slices.

Edit: The answer to my question is: yes, you can pick any tga texture that you might find in a SharedMedia library

I'm not quite sure what you mean. If you want to decrease the brightness of the aggro borders, you can lower the alpha on .hpGlow somewhat.

I wish to raise brightness of border, prompt what lines it is necessary to change. Thanks.

the bars that are poping are cael bars btw, not the original wow bars.
would love you guys if some1 can point me on a fix for this, thanks alot.
Changelogs are there to be read:

- Disabled auto toggling nameplates in combat
Remove line 310 and 320 to re-enable.

@zajceff: The healthbar makes up most of the plate, and its background is stored as healthBar.hpBackground. There is currently no background behind all parts of the nameplate, you'll have to create that yourself.

@Andrei2000: I'm not quite sure what you mean. If you want to decrease the brightness of the aggro borders, you can lower the alpha on .hpGlow somewhat.

I was able to modify pretty much everything I wanted, but just can't find code responsible for plates background. Right now (default) plates background is transparent and I'd like to have it simple black. Thanks in advance for your help.

Btw, great name plates addon. Love it.

I don't know if I remember this correctly but did the addon used to have just show on selection? Like the nameplate only show when the target is highlight. If not, is it possible to make it to do so? And also the nameplate isn't showing horde players in Dalaran, is there a way to activate that as well?

Thanks

You're doing it wrong™. Although I can't quite say what exactly you're doing wrong until I see the code. Post a pastey (www.pastey.net) and I'll have a look.
