RaidFrames+ is another set to improve the game experience with the standard interface provided with the latest version of World of Warcraft.
I have resumed this project (which started with the not so popular MacTools) because the current RaidFrames have been improved with Wrath of the Lich King but not as much as I wished (and other RaidFrames looks just deplaced in the default Interface).
What does this AddOn do to the RaidFrames
Currently this AddOn adds ( or improves ) these functions in the raidframes:
- Debuff-highlightning : the frame of an affected Raidmember will glow in the corresponding debuff color also the Debuff is moved within the UnitButton to save screen estate.
- Custom Aura-Highlightning : define in a special list in which color a Raidmember should be highlighted if it has a defined aura (by name)
- Healthtext: over the Health and Manabar there is now a number that display the current Health of this unit
- 4 Different displaytypes of Health:
- absolute values,
- deficite values (mainly for healers),
- big k values ( values bigger than 1,000 will be represented as thousands) and
- percent values
- NEW : custom format (see below)
- Aggro : the littel dot next to the healthbar is a nice addition by Blizzard, but for me it is hard to distinguish; so the Healthtext will be colored by the current ThreatSituation (Red : tanking; Orange: Winning on Threat; Yellow: hardly tanking)
- RaidIcons: right next to the UnitButtons thier should be the current raid target icon (lucky charms) displayed
- Fixed Borders: of Healthbars and Manabars
- Graphical Interface Configuration Panel
- Enhanced Healthar display modi:
- Allways doublesize : this option will hide the manabar and increase height of the healthbar by 200%
- No Mana: this option will hide the manabar if the unit has no mana as powersource (rogues, warriors, deathknights, non caster-pets, vehicles) and increase the height of the healthbar (in this mode those raidframes looks like xperl in blizzard style)
- Never : the healthbar is untouched and the manabar is displayed as usual
- Mass-toggle between debuff and buff display (this is useful during buffing the raid) inspired by lab1702 and his addon RaidPulloutOrganizer
how to configure this AddOn?
The configuration will be done via the interface options, but you have to use
/rfp -d
to mass-toggle between buffs and debuffs
