BetterBlizzPlates 2.1.0

All versions

New

  • Small Pets setting now has more right click options to also change the height of small pet nameplates.
  • "Show Only Friendly NP Names" new setting in CVar Control. This enables Blizzards new CVar that hides healthbar and castbar and only leaves name. BBP was turning this on/off depending on your settings before but now you can force it on with this setting if youd like.

Tweak

  • Some minor tweaks and fixes to castbar test mode

Bugfix

  • Fix some issues with border color setting.

Classics (Era, TBC, MoP)

New

  • Ported Retail's "Show Target Text" setting to classics (under Enemy Nameplates in /bbp) with more settings for it in Advanced Settings. This has replaced the normal "Show target underneat castbar". It lets you see true target of the cast (who the spell is actually being cast on, no macro bait) and you can set it to always show target etc. You may have to tweak your settings again here now.

BetterBlizzPlates 2.0.9

Classic Era/SoD

New/Bugfix

  • Update Classic version of addon to TBC version for compatibility. Not everything is fixed on TBC yet either; You are recommended to keep Blizzards "Nameplate Style" setting to "Classic" otherwise errors are likely. Era might need some Era specific tweaks we'll see. Report issues please.

BetterBlizzPlates 2.0.8d

All versions (except Era, comes next week)

Tweak

  • Improve handling of Blizzards Mind Control bug. Should now properly set width and class color after a MC. Auras are still not worked out entirely yet but I wont be able to get it 100% there either. I wish Blizzard fixed this bug.

Tweak

BetterBlizzPlates 2.0.8c

All versions (except Era, comes next week)

Tweak

  • Tweak Classic Nameplates' top name anchor a bit and move it a bit over to the right so its more centered on the nameplate when level is shown.

Bugfix

  • Fix castbar "Always on top" setting causing some issues with the new nameplate rework. Should hopefully work better now but please report any issues.

BetterBlizzPlates 2.0.8

All versions (except Era, comes next week)

New

  • Complete haulover on how nameplates' clicking, stacking and positioning works. Nameplates should now stop "vibrating" and stop bouncing up and down. New section "Look & Behaviour" with these new things in it, some settings from Misc & CVar Control moved in here. You will have to re-do your settings for these things in here. Due to these new changes other addons (MiniCC++) that anchor things specifically to the nameplate (as opposed to its healthbar) will likely need you to tweak their x/y offsets to be positioned correctly.
  • Castbar can now be adjusted the position of too in the new "Look & Behaviour" section.
  • Castbar can also be adjusted the width of in the new "Look & Behaviour" section.
  • Castbar now has a new "Fit Cast Icon on the left" setting. It moves the castbar to the right to make space for the icon and locks the icon perfectly. In the new "Look & Behaviour" section.
  • Minimalist texture and PT Sans Narrow Bold font is now included.
  • Castbar Customization section has a new "Anchor Icon Right" setting if you want the cast icon on the right side instead.
  • Added a hidden variable if you want to change the castbar cast timer text font size. In order to tweak it you need to set a font size, 12 default, with this command and reload after /run BetterBlizzPlatesDB.npCastTimerSize = 12
  • The WeakAura for ComboPoints, Shards, etc has been fixed for Era, TBC and MoP. Re-import it from the CVar Control section or ask me on Discord or check the pinned comment in BetterBlizzPlates channel if you have customized yours a lot for a simple update fix.

TBC & MoP

New

  • New "Minimal" profile. Made by skinnay on Discord. Neat profile that is clean and using classic nameplates with clutter removed and auras neatly organized.

Bugfix

  • Fix a bunch of CVar names that were wrong after Blizzard changed them on the latest patches. This caused settings to not stick among other things.
  • Fix castbar flashing wrong & white texture at the end of a cast sometimes.
  • Fix missing kick spell id for aura interrupts.
  • Fix Small Pets setting being wrong and ending up with way wider nameplates than intended.
  • Fix potential lua error in castbar code when it sometimes doesnt have a texture.
  • Add back missing TBC "Break-CC DoT" filter. PR by Romainjava ty!
  • 2.0.8b: Fix the Overlap Sliders in the new "Look and Behaviour" section not changing values.

Midnight

Tweak

  • Class Icon "Pet": Added Whiptails icon. Ty Stroold for helping.
  • Fix a check for BetterBlizzFrames' Personal Resource Display settings causing BBP to send chat msg about skipping the settings unintentionally.
  • Tweak castbar background for when people who selected castbar pixel border without changing the background texture to fit the corners. Original texture has cut corners which left some gaps.
  • Fix BBP cancelling out BBF's PRD settings with certain settings.
