Perl doesn't seem to display the miniature buff icons in the raid - anyone know what's wrong? It works fine in party, but for raid, its just the HP bar, MP bar, name - no mini icons.

The raid portion does not show buffs at this time since I'm not too sure how to limit the 4 or 5 main buffs to show. On top of that, I don't know if I really want to add 40 people to check buffs on, that's a ton of potential lag that isn't overly needed.

Hi, these frame are awesome, is it possible just to include a target picture/portrait in ToT? This way its much easier to see who your target is targeting. Thanks very much.
Also, I am using MobHealth2, on regular blizzard bar, MobHealth2 will attempt to give me approximate HP of player in PvP, is it possible to add this feature?
And lastly, I was wondering if it is possible to turn off the numbers on your player Hp/Mana bar? I think its better to have a clear view of your Hp/Mana w/o the numbers.

Thanks you very much for this great addon!

Just wanted to check here to see if you could explain this error message.

interface\addons\perl\perlplayer.lua:200:attempt to call method`setTexCoord'(a nil value)

I have posted a thread but have gotten no responses. Did a search and this thread popped up.

Any help would be welcomed.
I have downloaded the new perl and I still get the error message, It will not click off the screen.

If I have posted in the wrong area, my apologies.

Thanks for your time.

Based on the directory structure you have listed, it looks like you are using Nymbia's Perl and not Perl Classic. Oddly enough, I came across the same error in my version of it the other night in an instance. Regardless, wrong mod thread and I don't think Nymbia has a page here. I recommend trying Perl Classic anyway, runs better and has more options

Hey, great mod! Anyway, there are two features that I'd like to request. First off, the ability to set bar text ingame. I really liked that feature from Nymbia's Perl, and found it quite useful. It gets tedious having to edit the code every new version. Another thing I'd like to ask for is combat text for party frames. Before using Perl Classic, I was using MiniGroup2, and I found that party combat text helped a lot when healing. Thanks again for the time and dedication you put into writing this mod!

Thanks for the info. I will try it out tonight.

Much thanks for your help.

Well, last time I checked, Nymbia's had zero options for text. Perl Classic has text options to a point in the sense that different modes give you different displayed text. At this point I don't see myself doing a full custom text interface simply because it's a ton of work for something that really isn't needed in my opinion. I do like to play WoW sometimes without thinking of code Regarding party damage text, I doubt I'll support it natively, but I'll look into having another mod support it.
