Description
SlickFPS
Live FPS and latency, styled to fit your UI
SlickFPS is a lightweight, draggable performance HUD for World of Warcraft. It keeps your current FPS, Home latency, and World latency visible through responsive status bars, then gives you the styles, themes, fonts, profiles, and layout controls to make the display feel at home in your interface.
Read performance at a glance
See live frame rate and both latency paths without opening another window. Each row combines a clear numeric value with a status bar that changes color and fill as performance changes.
📊 Clear live feedback
- Track FPS, Home latency, and World latency in one compact HUD.
- Let FPS bars follow WoW's configured target while latency bars react to connection quality.
- Show or hide the FPS, Home, and World rows individually.
- Hover over the HUD for its lock status and quick control reminders, or disable the tooltip when you no longer need it.
- Left-drag the unlocked HUD into place, then right-click to lock it.
Rename note: SlickFPS was formerly FPSView. If both FPSView and SlickFPS appear in your AddOns list after updating, disable or remove FPSView to avoid duplicate HUDs.
Make performance data part of your UI
Go clean and minimal, bright and animated, segmented like an audio meter, or remove the bars entirely. SlickFPS separates bar style from color theme so you can mix the look you want instead of settling for a single preset design.
✨ Fourteen bar styles
- Choose Classic Blocks, Audio Meter, Fluid Flow, Fluid Solid, Neon Glow, Neon Pulse, Prism Flow, Pulse Blocks, Scanline Fill, Signal Sweep, Status Marker, Thin Line, Tuner Pulse, or None.
- Pair any style with 55 color themes, from the default Stoplight palette to soft, vivid, neon, earthy, and seasonal combinations.
- Fine-tune bar width, height, spacing, background, border, opacity, and brightness.
- Use separate label and value fonts, sizes, colors, and outline styles.
- Choose from 15 bundled fonts, with additional fonts available through LibSharedMedia.
Keep your favorite looks ready
Appearance profiles let you build different HUD designs and switch between them without recreating every setting. Save a new look, rename it, update it, or remove it while the protected Default profile always gives you a clean starting point.
💾 Profiles that travel with your setup
- Save complete HUD appearances, including styles, themes, fonts, colors, sizing, visibility, and position.
- Switch profiles from the options window and keep character-specific placement and appearance choices.
- Create, rename, save, and delete custom profiles with clear chat confirmation.
- Return to the protected Default profile whenever you want the original look.
Make it yours
- Scale the entire HUD and adjust bar width, height, and row spacing.
- Customize frame background, border, opacity, label color, and value color.
- Set bar background and border colors, opacity, and dimmer level independently.
- Choose separate fonts and sizes for labels and values, with None, Outline, or Thick Outline.
- Toggle the FPS, Home, World, and mouseover-tooltip elements individually.
- Keep the options window above the surrounding UI while you tune the result.
Type /slickfps to open the options window. You can also Shift + Right-Click the HUD to open or close it, Left-Drag to move an unlocked HUD, and Right-Click to lock or unlock it.

Latest update
2.3.9 - 2026-09-30
- Improved: TOC version is now updated for WoW 12.1.5.
- Fixed: HUD FPS bar now uses WoW's configured Target FPS value when no foreground limit or display refresh value is available and remains full within two FPS of that target without learning a false limit from temporary low FPS.
