Animated Blizzard Portraits

Animated Blizzard Portraits

Breathes life into every Blizzard unit frame by replacing the static 2D portrait icons with fully animated live 3D character models — your character, your target, your focus, your party members, all rendered in real time directly inside the existing Blizzard frames. No frame replacements, no UI overhaul required.

Features

• Live 3D animated models on all supported unit frames: Player, Target, Focus, and Party
• Seamlessly replaces the default portrait textures without breaking any other addons
• Fully compatible with The War Within (patch 11.x / 12.x)

Per-Portrait Customization Every portrait type (Player, Target, Focus, Party) has its own independent settings:

• Background — Transparent, Black, Class Color, or a fully custom color with opacity via the color picker
• Camera Zoom — Continuous slider from tight head shot down to full body view
• Idle Animations — Toggle natural idle fidget animations on or off
• X / Y Offset — Fine-tune the model position horizontally and vertically
• Portrait Size — Adjust how much the model fills the frame

Settings Panel Open with /abp — a clean dark-themed panel with bronze accents styled after popular addons. Each tab includes a live preview showing exactly how your changes will look before you close the panel.

Usage

Type /abp to open the settings panel. All changes apply live — no reload required.

Notes

• Settings are saved per character via SavedVariables
• Party previews show two side-by-side models reflecting your current party members
• The addon hooks SetPortraitTexture so it works automatically with any frame that uses the standard Blizzard portrait system
