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 I do not support ancient outdated and unmaintained mods.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.

Yup, doesn't hurt to ask, you could always tweak the position of the frames so it fits into the name frame. Not sure how it would look or turn out, but it may be worth it to mess around with it.

Text placement is really just how me and that author prefer to have the info. Doubt I'll be adding any of this. It's just a few of the differences between the mods.

speak A Wyrmkin Dreamwalker Forum posts: 57 File comments: 186 Uploads: 0	quick question tried this out yesterday and loved what i saw. there's just one thing i want that's not there species/class/level inside the main frame, not separately. i'm currently using Minigroup2 and here's a pic of my unitframe: you see how it shows the F-keys, name, class & level in the party frame all in one clean way, and on the target frame (upper left) it shows the name, level, species (humanoid in this case), type elite or civilian/etc - that's the "type" of layout i like. the only way i could figure out how to do it in perl is to enable the class thing, but that's just an icon (staff for mage, some kinda hand for warlock, etc) and not a word. it also takes up a big chunk of space to do it >.< i dont know what i want is called, maybe inline-information? other than that, the mod pwns - one of the best unitframes ive ever tried. but for now, i gotta stick with minigroup2 to save some valuable screen space thanks for any consideration!

I changed the checks for that feature in 0.73 so once that one comes out try it again. @Norinion: Sorry, I have not taken a look at it yet. I'll try to get it working today. It's a pain sometimes to test party mods. Team that with 1.11 and it pretty much got put on the back burner. I need to get ArcaneBar fixed and Party_Pet positions saving and then I'll try to see what's up with the mod you linked before. I think it's just a matter of putting the text above the portrait frame and getting the anchors correct.

Is this a bug? glitch? or do i Have another mod conflicting with dropdown menu somehow?

not sure if i didn't turn this feature on or not.. but for some reason i can't tell if the mobs were tagged by someone else or not.. i think the target's text used to go grey if someone else hit it first.. but its not d oing that for me :S..

Re: debuff fix

Originally posted by seven0sav
don't mean to tell u how to update you're own mods, i love this one, but the one thing i didn't like was that it didn't show debuff stacks on tot frame, so a friend and i did some trial and error research and comparissons to the totot file (which did work). And if it's as important to you as it is to me in OT situations that u need to see the tot debuffs stacked, open the LUA file in the perl_target_target folder with notepad and search for "debuffApllications" and delete the "de" so it reads "buffApplications", it worked for us.

Yep. I only use this feature on my warrior, which is an alt, so I didn't notice this till the other night on a raid. Already fixed for 0.72

Thanks for the report.
