Minimap Party/Raid Blips

[FatalEntity]

Hey, Does blizzard have some function that will take the english class name (like "WARRIOR" or "DEATH_KNIGHT") and preform setTexCoords on this texture http://wowprogramming.com/BlizzArt/M...yRaidBlips.png ?

Or will I just have to do this myself?

idealy it would be somthing like

BlizzardFunction_SetClassIcon(myTexture, "MAGE")

I looked around but couldn't find anything, even a table with the coords for each of the icons for each class would be good.

Thanks

I'm not sure if things were ever resolved, but some developers were trying to get this to work quite some time ago. Offsite forum thread.

That is a bit of a separate issue. I'm not trying to replace minimap blips or anything along those lines, I'm just trying to easily get part of that texture using SetTexCoords depending on a units class, right now I have to do something along the lines of

-- Setup raid/party icons similar too the minimap
local icon = [[Interface\MINIMAP\PartyRaidBlips]]
local classIndex = {
	WARRIOR = {0, .125, .5, .75},
	PALADIN = {.125, .25, .5, .75},
	HUNTER = {.25, .375, .5, .75},
	ROGUE = {.375, .5, .5, .75},
	PRIEST = {.5, .625, .5, .75},
	DEATH_KNIGHT = {.625, .75, .5, .75},
	SHAMAN = {.75, .875, .5, .75},
	MAGE = {.875, 1, .5, .75},
	WARLOCK = {0, .125, .75, 1},
	DRUID = {.25, .375, .75, 1},
}

function module:setIconTexture(blip)
	if not UnitExists(blip.unit) then return end
	
	local l, r, t, b = unpack(classIndex[select(2, UnitClass(blip.unit))])
	
	blip.icon:SetTexture(icon)
	if UnitInParty(blip.unit) then
		blip.icon:SetTexCoord(l, r, t - .5, b - .5)
	else
		blip.icon:SetTexCoord(l, r, t, b)
	end
end

but I would like to have a function that I just give the units class too and it handles the cropping for me. I figured blizzard might have had one because of the minimap but I don't know.

It would be similar to blizzards function

SetRaidTargetIconTexture(icon, index)
