Prat 3.0

Version: 3.9.58

by: lucifercatnip, humfras, MysticalOS, pompachomp, sylvanaar

Prat is a chat addon framework, and collection. It consists of 30+ modules which each add some functionality to the WoW chat interface. There is literally a module for just about everything chat related. While large in size, i have been working to keep the runtime memory usage down, and eliminate the costs of the unused modules without littering the addon directory with a slew of folders.

For the options menu, type "/prat", or if you have a broker host mod installed you will get a launcher icon.

You control the load behavior of modules via the module control screen. You have 3 choices "Don't load", "Disabled", and "Enabled"

You can report any bugs you find here:

http://www.wowace.com/projects/prat-3-0/tickets/

Prat has just about every feature you can think of, and then some. Really. When I get some more time, I'll try and put together a full list (Even I have lost count)

(Thanks to Dreamsight for this partial list)

* Change arrows, buttons, mouse scroll for chat scroll, scroll speed
* you can add color per channel, color per lvl, color per class
* timestamps
* timestamp color
* whether to show timestamp (what format the timestamp should be in)
* whether to show players lvl
* you can select the option for channel "stickys" (last channel you used you auto use when hitting enter, that sort of thing – or last thing someone said)
* change the looks of the chat's editbox - as well as where it appears (you can even undock it and move it to where you'd like it to be)
* chat fading, fading delay
* You can change the font to a list of fonts, add an outline to it, monochrome it (if you don’t mind messing with files a bit you could prolly even add other fonts to that list)
* change the chat frame/chat box appearance
* set Chat history
* set channel abbreviations
* set brackets and color(or something instead of brackets)round player/lvl
* alt invite option (press keyboard “alt” button and click on the player’s name to auto inv them)
* raid icon
* invite links
* info keeping
* url copying
* full chat copying + options (html,bbcode, plain, forum) + copy button
* allows pop-up msgs
* enables tell target /tt
* Alias options
* altnames options
* you can enable/disable all prat modules - dont have to have the ones you dont use running
* change chat sounds (incoming and outgoing as well as per channel
* acheivement info, and clickable links to say "grats"

For those interested:

There is an additional folder Prat-3.0_HighCPUUsageModules.

Note: These features use CPU, so they have been placed in a special folder so that is 100% clear.

I am really sorry to hear that and send my regards, as a Disabled gamer, Prat 3.0 and its color coding functionality has been a HUGE blessing to me... and has been one of the best addons I commonly recommend... For anyone with visual issues or such.

3.9.2c was only a toc update (should work for all clients [Classic, TBC, Retail]).

The current github page is https://github.com/Legacy-of-Sylvanaar/prat-3-0

Hi, thanks a lot for posting this. Jon was my friend... His family have expressed their deepest appreciation for the outpouring of love and support.

I just learned about this forum so I'm going to try to contact support and see if I can be added to Jon's projects to help manage them. I already have control of his Curseforge projects, and was able to fork Prat over to a new repo in github.

Jon was a champion for open source so continuing his work would have made him proud.

I am trying to distinguish the guildmaster inchat from others, is there a current module or a way to make either his whole line a different color in guild other than green or maybe add a guildmaster icon infront of his name using prat 3.0? I used to have this in elv ui chat and its wonderful.

Not that I know of. It seems to be part of the internal implementation
