eNameplates  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.0.2
by: Elv22 [More]

This a nameplate addon that is extremely lightweight. It is a standalone version of my nameplates inside Elv's UI. Visit the ElvUI forums for support.

Options
-Display Health Text on NamePlates
-Enhanced Threat, instead of using nameplate border for threat colors, you can utilize the entire health bar for threat colors.
-Allow nameplates to overlap each other or not.
-Option to only display nameplates when in combat.
-Includes a nameplate Blacklist, so you can hide unwanted nameplates.

Setup
-All options are in the first 25 lines or so of the eNameplates.lua file. Use a text editing program such as Notepad ++ to edit the file. Threat colors will automatically adjust to your Role, for example if you are a Tank the good threat color will be green. Therefore mobs with threat will display as green. If you are a DPS/Healer the good color will be displayed on mobs you do not have threat on.

1.0.2
-Fix bug where becoming intoxicated in-game causes the default blizzard level text to re-appear.
-Add option to hide class icons.

1.0.1
-No longer depend on scaling cvar do this to prevent lua error.

Please add an option to show only names on friendly units and no bars. I guess there are many people who would appreciate that.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the update. There seems to be a problem with the fading, though.

Out of combat with nothing targetted the plates look fine, when you target something other units become slightly transparent as intended, but when you enter combat your selected target fades to the same as others.

Not a big deal, but distracting enough to mean I have to use different plates for the time being :/

Millions thanks Farmbuyer. The servers are down atm and I'll give it a try later, I'm sure this is what I want after looking at the lua. You made my day.

I've uploaded my fixes as an optional patch (actually it overwrites the existing files, the original is not required); see the "Other Files" tab and give that a try.

@Farmbuyer, I tried what you said with the code. Obviously I am not good with it so it is still broken for me. Elv is unlikely to update this, according to himself. Kind of sad because this is the best Nameplates for me.

I'll try to figure the codes again. If you happened to fix yours, please do share with me.

Thank you.

At minimum, you'll need to replace the old "spreadnameplates" CVar with the new API. Here're the changes I've made in my local copy, although I'm not done and Elv may finish updating before I do.

Is there any way, or chance, to add vendors profession names such as <stable master>, <innkeeper>, <trade supplies>, etc, to the name plate info?

Care to share? I'd like to try this to see how it looks. Thanks.


edit: Also, how would I remove the border from the health/cast bars? I'd like to see how that looks too.

Thanks! Love the addon!

Is there a way to change the offset? I'd like to make the nameplate a little above the mobs. I play so zoomed out that the nameplates often cover the entire mob.

Line 79 to 89 shows this:

Code:
local NamePlates = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, UIParent)
NamePlates:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...) self[event](self, ...) end)
SetCVar("bloatthreat", 0) -- stop resizing nameplate according to threat level.
SetCVar("bloattest", 0)
SetCVar("ShowClassColorInNameplate",1)
SetCVar("showVKeyCastbar",1)
if overlap == true then
	SetCVar("spreadnameplates", "0")
else
	SetCVar("spreadnameplates", "1")
end
Isn't that what you suggested for me to add? If so it's already there but still getting those bloated bars.
