Talents to dual wield 2 2handers so can't switch to weapons you can't wield yet :P.

Yep! Just add /tptpdps for dps or /tptptank for tanking for your macros!

Here's another example of a spec change, stance, gear, and mode switching all in one press:

Code:
/stopmacro [combat]
/equipset [spec:2] set1name; set2name
/cast [spec:2] Defensive Stance; Battle Stance
/usetalents [spec:2] 1 ; 2
/run if (GetActiveTalentGroup() == 2) then SlashCmdList["TPTPTANK"]() else SlashCmdList["TPTPDPS"]() end
Not sure if the equipset will work.

You may get some errors pertaining to TidyThreatPlates.lua, these are the important ones.
Updated and should be bug free. Let me know if you have any problems!

At the character select screen I have both enabled (I even have all other addons disabled).

When I start up the game it just looks like only Tidy Plates is installed. In the Interface > Addons section I only have "Tidy Plates: Default Options". And typing /tptp does nothing

Any suggestions why I can't get this working?

Re: 1.7c errors

I just installed as a new user, and version 1.7c threw a few syntax errors at me.
There are missing "end"s near the end of the lua in some of the decision trees for tank/dps/other.

It also said there was a missing end for an entire function, but i couldn't find it.
I downloaded version 1.7b in the meantime.
I'll look into it thanks, I kinda just made this update blindly with no error checks >.> so, if you could post some of the errors I'll check them out.

Edit: Fixed a few things and updated.

Something that we could work on is a way of using the old DTM code to update the 'unit' table for the nameplates. Sometime in the New Year, perhaps, since this holiday season has me swamped.

Their isn't a way to do that with Tidy Plates, however I updated a mod that can add a threat meter to nameplates.

How hard would it be to make TP get the values from e.g. Omen and then make the warning-levels configurable?

And if it's doable, could a donation entice you to work on it? :P

You can edit the lua and change the size and position for the normal.lua, dps.lua, and tank.lua.

hmmm

Oh, I know!.. I didn't give a value for friendly mobs... I'll fix it in a little while. I feel stupid lol...
