kNamePlates

A tiny name plate addon:

Relatively simple addon for my own use, recreates my Aloft nameplates but without all the extra gunk to make it take 2MB. It is unlikely that I'll be adding features or the ability to edit options in game.

Features

• Lowfoot memory print (18kb)
• Compact Frames
  • Name and Level text inside status bar
  • Level = level if unit HP is 100%, otherwise shows remaining HP
• Custom Threat Highlighting (same as Aloft default override)
• Stacking points text
  • Druids: Combo Points (cat), Lacerate (bear)
  • Warriors: Sunder Armor
  • Rogues: Combo Points
  • Paladins: Seal of Vengeance/Corruption stacks

Customizing

No in game options

For custom options, create a new file in the addon folder named CustomOptions.lua. Include any of the following variables and change their value (currently the shown values are the defaults)

kNPCustom_frameheight = 11
kNPCustom_framewidth = 120
kNPCustom_castbarheight = kNPCustom_frameheight * 0.8
kNPCustom_agrocolors = {
	-- alpha is not currently used here, these are really just placeholders
	[0]		= { 1.00, 0.00, 0.00 },	-- "gray" equivalent (translate gray glow to red, the default hostile nameplate color; low aggro)
	[1]		= { 0.00, 1.00, 1.00 },	-- "yellow" equivalent (tranlate glow to a bright cyan; you are at risk of pulling/losing aggro)
	[2]		= { 1.00, 0.00, 1.00 },	-- "orange" equivalent (tranlate glow to a bright magenta; you are really close to pulling/losing aggro)
	[3]		= { 1.00, 0.67, 0.00 },	-- "red" equivalent (tranlate glow to a bright orange; this target is securely yours)
}
kNPCustom_barTexture = [[Interface\Addons\kNamePlates\media\Smoothv2]]
kNPCustom_glowTexture = [[Interface\Addons\kNamePlates\media\Outline]]
kNPCustom_font = [[Interface\Addons\kNamePlates\media\Calibri1.ttf]]
kNPCustom_fontSize = 9
kNPCustom_fontOutline = "OUTLINE"
kNPCustom_stackedPointsfontSize = kNPCustom_fontSize + 3
kNPCustom_castbarfontsize = 8
kNPCustom_thousandstext = "%.1fk"
kNPCustom_millionstext = "%.1fm"
kNPCustom_HPValuefunction = function(value, minhp, maxhp)
	if value < 10000 then
		return value
	elseif value >= 10000 and value < 1000000 then
		return string.format(thousandstext, value / 1000)
	elseif value >= 1000000 and value < 1000000000 then
		return string.format(millionstext, value / 1000000)
	else
