Perl Classic Unit Frames

Version: 10.07

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 I do not support ancient outdated and unmaintained mods.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.

Go down to the downloads section on Curse and switch to the "Other" tab.

Known error. It's caused on Blizzard's end, not Perl's. Every 3rd party unit frame has this issue. With any luck, it will be fixed in the next patch.

For the time being, I highly recommend using Natur's EnemyCastBar. @Fyrwulf: Open Perl_Target_Target.lua and search for "function Perl_Target_Target_Play_Sound()". In that function is where you can change the sound that is played. @alya: Some other mod you have installed is turning them back on. Archaeologist and ArcaneBar from the Cosmos pack have been recent offenders of this.

I found the target of target sound file, and tried to open Blizzard's MPQ file with an MPG viewer, but was unable to get that working. Is it possible to play a wave sound not in your Blizzard directory, or do you have to choose one that is in that MPQ file?

But it looks like the focus target raid icon isn't working correctly. I can see that the unit has a raid icon, but it is just a green square instead of the raid icon. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, this is one of my must haves, target of target's target and now a focus frame, makes my life so much easier.

Yes i hated that sound myself heres how to fix it.

create a folder in the Perl_Target_Target folder i called mine sound

then change the "function Perl_Target_Target_Play_Sound()" to look like this.

function Perl_Target_Target_Play_Sound()
if (alertsound == 1) then
PlaySoundFile("Interface\\Addons\\Perl_Target_Target\\Sound\\fear.mp3");

Change the fear.mp3 to any sound file you added to that folder you created and boom custom aggro sounds.

Note i did this while in game a simple reload of the ui will let you test to see if you got it right.

Enjoy
