X-Perl UnitFrames  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 3.6.35
by: MysticalOS, Zeksie

A much enchanced version of Nymbia's Perl UnitFrames, and a complete replacement for Blizzard's default unit frames, including raid frames and raid tools, with many additions and improvements over the original Nymbia code.

Range Finder (combined with optional health check) for all frames based on spell or item range test.

HoT Monitor will highlight units clearly that have your own active Heal over Time spells.

Debuff Highlights in standard debuff colours on all friendly frames. Priority given to show debuffs that YOU can cure first.

Raid Frames, buff icons, MT list units and some other portions or X-Perl are Created on demand. Saving a lot of time and memory at system startup. Defering the creation of many parts of X-Perl to when they are actually required. And of course, most often outside of raids they are never required and are never created.

Raid Target icon support for Target, Target's Target, MT Targets.

Raid tooltip will show combat rezzers available (druids with Rebirth ready (or very soon available) and any normal rezzers out of combat) if you bring up tooltip of a dead person.

'In-combat' indicators for Pet, Target, Target's Target, Party, Party pets, Raid, MT Targets.

3D Portraits for player, pet, target, focus, party. Optional. Of course this may degrade your framerate somewhat because you are displaying more 3D character models that without this option. But some like it pretty, and it does look cool.

Red and Green combat flashes for frames when player, pet, target, party, partypets, raid take damage/heals. Useful indication of things happening.

Added time left on party member/target buffs/debuffs when in a raid, these depend somewhat on CTRA/oRA/oRA2 sending appropriate information over the addon channel, although some of it can be determined at run time by X-Perl, when a player gets a buff for example, we know how long it should last, and therefor when it should expire.

Totally new options window including all X-Perl options and access via minimap icon.

Configurable colours for borders and backgrounds. Including class coloured names, and configurable reaction colours.

Much care has been taken with code size, memory load, memory usage per cycle and so on. LuaProfiler/OnEvent mods used extensively and regularly to ensure that X-Perl does not do more work than is absolutely necessary.

With that in mind, the event system was totally re-written, and is as kind to system performance as possible. The majority of events are disabled while zoning to alleviate any event backlog issues. And where most addons use 1 event handler per unit frame, which although standard, the alternative has improved X-Perl's performance. By using single main event handlers, we can route the events to appropriate units. So, for example, when a single UNIT_HEALTH update is fired, then just a single raid frame or party frame etc. gets the event, rather than 40 raid frame's handlers, 4 party and so on. Nymbia's Perl used to do a lot of crazy full frame udpates all over the place, eating away at CPU cycles. This was all fixed to only update what was necessary based on events.

Liberal usage of local functions to cut down compiled code size, and increase speed since functions are called directly rather than by name. Every time you have a global function, you have a global string name associated with it, so size in the global environment saved where possible.

XPerl_RaidHelper sub-addon
Assists View
Will show anyone from raid assising you with your target, and can also show healers or all plus known enemies targetting you.
Tooltips for the same also available (on player and target frames) if you prefer to not use the main window.

MT Targets
Replaces CTRA/oRA2 MT Targets window, and doubles as a replacement for the Perl RaidFrames warrior targets.
Indicator shows which target you are on.
Frames will be coloured to show if tanks have duplicate targets.

XPerl_RaidMonitor sub-addon (WORK IN PROGRESS)
Casting Monitor
Shows selected classes (defaults to healer classes) in a list (much like the MT List), but with some differences.
Shows mana bars and cast bars on left. Their targets on right. Health bar as normal, but a secondary small red bar on targets which shows the maximum single hit this unit has received since entering combat. The secondary bar will extend downwards from their current HP level down to as far as zero.
A green name on the targets indicates this is the same target that you have.
You can click on casters or their targets as expected.
For druids, right clicking on a caster will cast Innervate on them.
For shamans, right clicking on a caster will cast Mana Tide Totem. Check the * indicator to see if they're in your group.

All bars can be re-sized in X-Perl main options (Monitor section).

Totals can be toggled (from the 'T' minibutton at top of frame) which gives overview of raid mana status.

XPerl_RaidAdmin sub-addon (WORK IN PROGRESS)
Raid Admin
Save/Load raid roster setups
Only does direct save and load for the moment, but more to come (templates and such).

Item Check
Replacement for /raitem /radur /raresist /rareg. Use the old commands before, or drop items in the left item list.
Query button will perform /raitem on all ticked items (query always includes dur and resists) and you can then view and review all the results whenever, without having to re-query each item.
Includes everyone in raid, so you don't have to work out who doesn't have items, it'll list them with 0 instead of no entry.
Active Scanner to check raid member's equipment for the item selected. So you can be sure that people actually have the item worn (Onyxia Cloak for example), without having to go round single target inspecting everyone who 'forgot' to install CTRA for the 50th raid in a row.

Supported Addons
CT_RaidAssist, oRA2. Shows tooltip info and player status, replaces MT Targets List, improves raid frames, shows player status, resurrection monitor, buff timers aware.
MobInfo-2 / MobHealth3 - Shows target health from MobHealth database.
DruidBar - Shows druid mana bar from DruidBar when shapeshifted.
Clique compatible. And any other click cast addon that uses the same communication method. (see below)

Changes:
*Updated for 5.x
*Should use signifcently less cpu then it did before

i'm actually testing x-perl and couldn't find one option:
is it possible to get an indicator for group targets, to see if i have the same target like a groupmember (or the tank)?
the mt tragets in raids look nice und work perfectly.

Player's Buff

HI , i hope this is not some option i missed but here we go !

as a resto , i check the "only my buff's" option in the Party Tab and it's all good =)
when i play as enhancend shaman do i like having all the raid buff the old blizzard way to see what i got or miss .. but when fighting it would be nice to have only mine under my name plate so i could see when to cast my dmg shield or when maelstrom weapon is up to 5 stack and such
i have failed to see the "only my buff" option under the Player Tab

so i guess unless i missed the option .. this end's up being a suggestion

in any case .. Amazing addon keep up the good work !

In the player frame when you uncheck "values" and "percentages", the mana value text is still visible on the mana bar as is the mana percentage to the right of the mana bar - health values and % are hidden properly."

Hope this small annoyance gets fixed...

Thanks either way!
Ack, I killed the thread!

A quick suggestion;

Instead of above the name, display threat above the frame.

Why;

I know my pet's name, no need to display it.. I know what my pet looks like, no need to display his portrait. With these two features disabled, I can't enable threat display for my pet's frame.

Also, there's no way to disable player's name.
I know what my toon's name is.. there's no reason to display it.

Here are a few easy ways to tell what your player's name is without enabling this feature..
Mouse over the person's frame who's name you would like to learn.
Press C to open your character menu, there's your name right on top.
The same can be done for your pet's name too.

There may be some people out there that forget what their character's/pet's name is every 5 seconds.. I however am not one of them, I don't need that info on-screen all of the time.

Same goes for the portraits, I know what my character/pet looks like.. it's standing right there in the middle of my screen.

What may be a cool feature for some people is a nuisance, a distraction, and a waste of screen space for me.

I love the addon.. highly dependable with zero errors, great bar display, and simple setup.

Quick bug report, unknown what replicates it, but sometimes one of the inline cast bars on the party member frame are replicated on to another.

For example, when a mage casts Blizzard, it looks like the Shaman is also casting Blizzard.

A reload seems to fix the problem.

I tried deleting everything x-perl related (the addon, WTF folder) and installing the latest one (from this site).

I hope this will be fixed soon, since I tried other UF addons and isn't satisfied with them...
I am having the same problem - I found that reloading the UI solves the problem for quite a long time, though it does return. Then I just reload again.

Maybe you would like it to run the instance for you too, and feed you and change your nappy afterwards

I'd like, too. However, it's not a priority.

That's a social problem, not technical.

Why? I don't see a problem. Have you lost your tongue, so you can't ask "Who's tanking"? Don't consider everyone around you NPC, be a little more social, than a wood plank.

Answer is quite simple: It's not possible for non-Blizzard frames.
Use keybind (Alt+F for example)

and any chance DF class icons will be added, I know this has been asked, but these 2 things are keeping me from using one of my all time fav addons, x-perl
