Description

Mateos Classic Frames

The original classic unit frames, for every class, as one standalone addon. 

Built for World of Warcraft: Forever, which ships retail's unit frames and cast bar, and works on Classic Era today.

Frames

  • Player: portrait, level, health and power, combat and resting glow, PvP, leader, master looter and raid group.
  • Pet: happiness for hunter pets, the attack glow and debuffs.
  • Target and focus: the elite, rare and rare-elite borders, the name strip in reaction colour, buffs and debuffs in the classic layout, combo points and threat percentage.
  • Target of target and target of focus: with their debuffs.
  • Totems: timers for shamans; right-click a totem to destroy it.

Cast bars

The classic cast bars for the player, pet, target and focus:

  • yellow while casting, green while channelling
  • a flash when a cast finishes, red for "Interrupted" or "Failed"
  • a grey shield for casts that can't be interrupted
  • optional spell icons and time left

Moving and sizing

Type /mcf unlock. Every frame, cast bar and the totem row gets a box. Drag a box to move it, and the frame moves with it. Drag its white corner to resize. Type /mcf lock when you're done.

Settings

Type /mcf, or open Options → AddOns → Mateos Classic Frames:

  • switch any frame or cast bar off; Blizzard's own comes back in its place
  • health and power text: numbers, percent, both or none, optionally only on mouseover
  • buffs, debuffs, only your own debuffs, bigger icons for your auras
  • class-coloured health bars, incoming heals, threat, combo points, combat glow and PvP icons

Commands

Command What it does
/mcf open the settings
/mcf unlock / /mcf lock move and resize frames
/mcf show show the click areas, to check what you click
/mcf reset put every frame back in its starting spot

Notes

  • Only the Blizzard frames this addon replaces are hidden. Party and raid frames, the buff row and everything else stay as they are.
  • The artwork is the game's own classic art, used from the game files; none of it is packaged with the addon.
  • Frames can't be moved in combat. Unlocked boxes lock themselves when a fight starts.
