Perl Classic Unit Frames

Version: 10.05

by: Global [More]

If you like this mod, please vote for it!

What is Perl Classic?
Perl Classic Unit Frames are a complete rewrite of the original mods by Perl. They replace the default Player, Pet, Target, Target of Target, Party, and Party Pet frames and add dedicated frames for many other units (Focus, Focus Target, Party Target, Target of Target of Target). It has been a high priority to maintain the look and feel or the original Perl mods while expanding functionality. The mod has been recoded for performance and is built around the Blizzard UI usage of events.

Q&A
-----
Q: I'm seeing double party buffs for some reason, what gives?
A: 99% of the time this is caused by CT_PartyBuffs. Simply remove the mod and you will return to having one set of party buffs.

Q: I am having massive dead spots for clicking on some of the unit frames, what's wrong?
A: This can be caused by a number of mods, but the most common seems to be CT_MovableParty. Please remove this mod as Perl can be moved without the use of this mod.

Q: The default party frames are showing up with red lightning bolts. What's going on?
A: As of version 1.503 of CT_RaidAssist this should no longer be caused by CTRA. The settings for this are now located in the WoW settings under Interface Options -> Basic -> Raid -> Hide Party Interface.

Q: Do you support ArcaneBar?
A: Yes, it is included in your download of Perl Classic.

Q: Will you be adding any features to Perl_PlayerBuff?
A: No, my coding for this mod goes as far as making sure it 'works.' If anyone would like to expand upon it, feel free to do so.

Q: Where are the raid frames?
A: As of 2.0 I no longer code raid frames for Perl Classic. Luckily, X-Perl's raid frames work great alongside Perl Classic. X-Perl's raid frames (and the unit frames themselves) can be found here: http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/3416/

Q: The scaling is all messed up! What do i do?
A: I recommend setting the scale to that of the UI if you are having issues. Open the options menu via "/perl" or the Black Pearl icon on the minimap and set the scale accordingly under the "All" tab.

Q: I am having an issue not listed in this FAQ, what can I do?
A: First, update *every* mod. I do not support ancient outdated and unmaintained mods. If you have double checked that everything is up to date, post on any of the Perl Classic mod pages and I'll be glad to help you narrow down the issue or give suggestions to help find a solution.

Q: Can you add this feature?
A: I'm sure it's possible, but the primary purpose of this mod is to 'modernize' the original Perl mod so that it doesn't slow your game down.

another thing, i'm looking for a hack (new feature ?) to see (symbol or anything) witch member of party has aggro.

If you are using the latest version, you can turn the focus and party ToT frames off independently. /perl -> Focus/Party Target

As for party frame agro indicators, I don't plan on adding support for it, but there's no reason someone else couldn't make a mod that adds this functionality. If anyone ever does make some additions to Perl and they need to know how to ensure their feature doesn't get overwritten by my code, simply ask

I use the german client and right click whispering on Target frame brings up the correct name, BUT wrong server name getas appended.

Please tell me how we could fix, its very important for me.

Perl never has and never will do special menu hooks. Any error like this (especially when it happens on a patch day) just shows the quality of QA Blizzard has. Unfortunately, without doing some pretty crazy "hacks" to improve their code, there is nothing I can do to fix this. With any luck, 2.1 will correct the issue.

@fockewulf8: For now, install the parts of X-Perl that give you the raid frames. They are coded very well and have more features than I would have been able to add.

oooo, i didnt know we could combine them like that. ok ill do that. thanks

Not sure what to tell you on that one other than delete the Perl folders from your Interface/Addons directory and get a fresh copy online again.
