Description

Plate-o-Matic

Plate-o-Matic is a lightweight, performance-focused nameplate overhaul for World of Warcraft, designed for clarity and combat awareness without UI bloat. It is made for my main addon
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/robui
but also works fully as a standalone addon.

Inspired by Plater and Platynator, Plate-o-Matic focuses on doing one thing well: showing accurate, readable, combat-critical information in both PvE and PvP.


Features

  • Advanced threat coloring with full MT / OT tank logic

  • Dynamic tank states: Main Tank, Off-Tank, and danger detection

  • Custom built-in castbar system (safe and optimized)

  • Modern unified settings UI (≈80% complete)

  • Custom skins & textures per unit type
    (normal, elite, caster, melee, high-level, class, miniboss)

  • Threat % text, target glow, arrows, scaling, and border highlights

  • Quest icons & progress shown directly on nameplates

  • “Who is casting on me” detection module

  • Built-in Scripts tab for advanced tweaks and testing

  • PvP-focused visibility and targeting improvements

  • One simple setup menu (/pom)

  • Combat-safe & taint-free

  • Very low CPU & memory usage


Philosophy

Plate-o-Matic is built for players who want control, clarity, and performance — without replacing their entire UI or adding unnecessary complexity.

Designed to work reliably in high-pressure PvE encounters and fast-paced PvP combat.


Usage

Just install and play.

Type /pom to open the settings.

You need to set up your own colors and visual preferences to get the best results, especially for PvP.

Advanced users can use the Scripts tab for custom tweaks and debugging.


Disclaimer / Credits

Plate-o-Matic is visually inspired by Plater, Platynator, and other nameplate addons, but no code has been copied or reused.

All code is written independently from scratch.

AI has been used as a development assistant.
