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
