Threat Plates - Version 9.1
Classic Version
A classic port of Threat Plates is available here: Threat Plates (Classic).
About:
Threat Plates (TPTP for short) is a addon for customizing your nameplates. It offers a high amount of customization and tweaks to how your nameplates react and look. It also offers some unique features that are not available with any other nameplate addon. I've spent a considerable amount of time improving this addon and any comments or concerns about this addon are appreciated. I'm always looking for ways to improve this addon.
Starting with version 8.6.0, Threat Plates now is a standalone addon that no longer requires TidyPlates. Please enable only one of these two nameplate addons, otherwise two overlapping nameplates will be shown for units.
Features:
- SharedMedia support and many, many, options for name, health, level, and spell text. As well as all of the standard nameplate features such as castbar and icon, elite icons / textures, skull icons / textures, raid marks, and healthbar coloring/alpha/scale.
- Ace3 profiling.
- Low memory footprint.
- Threat system management.
- Automatic talent detection and role assigning for an easy out of the box setup.
- Customizable widgets.
- Customizable totem nameplates.
- Customizable nameplates for extra customization for specifically named units.
Commands:
- /tptp - Displays options.
- /tptptoggle - Toggle Role from one to the other.
- /tptpdps - Toggles DPS/Healing threat plates.
- /tptptank - Toggles Tank threat plates.
- /tptpol - Toggles nameplate overlapping.
- /tptpverbose - Toggles addon feedback text.
Additional Information:
- A considerable amount of information about options and its internal priorities are not gone into details. Most options that are enable or disable based will toggle off options that are no longer changeable once enabled or disabled. If you have any questions about options and what they do, feel free to leave a comment or PM me here for more information.

i have the costum threat plates on friendly units and i cant make the title appear. I can make the guild name appear but the title i cant. Some help please? Thx
In reply to FMRSilva:
Ah, there is currently no option to show titles. You cannot configure that.
hey, is there any way to customize the format of totems like the customize option of nameplates ? great addon btw
In reply to Neomindz:
There are some options available under Totems like changing the color of the nameplates, but not to the same degree as custom nameplates. As totems have priority, I think, you also cannot create a custom nameplate for a totem. Something that could be improved, I guess.
im having trouble adding new custom name plates. for me there is basically no option i have to change existing ones, which i don't want to do .
In reply to Bonerus:
You should see a button to migrate the current custom namepates at the top of the options dialog under Custom Nameplates. This will delete all default custom nameplates and give you two new buttons for adding and deleting custom nameplates. (I recommend to make a backup of your Threat Plates configuration file before doing that. It should not change any custom nameplates that you added, but just to be save.)

thnx brother
Hi, is there any way to permanently show Status Text so I can see a mobs health without being in combat with them?
In reply to Big_Buffet:
Yes. In the options, go to General - Status Text and enablie Full Health at the bottom of the page in Health Text. Now you should see the health even at mobs with 100% health.
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that there's a bug with how ThreatPlates interacts with the "Void-touched Egg" for the new raise a mount daily quest. Whenever I have the addon on, I can't see the progress bar anymore. I think it has something to do with them changing how the progress bar looks since last patch. Thanks so much for all the work though, I love the addon.
In reply to krazisham:
I was just coming to mention this
In reply to krazisham:
It's not really a but, this progress bar ist just not supported. I did not yet look into it if it could be added.
Just wondering if these nameplates support any form of highlighting (scaling, coloring etc.) for targets that are in execute range (eg. below 30% HP).
I've had a look but can't seem to a find a way to do this if you can.
In reply to nucrus:
No, execute range is currently not supported - always wanted to add that, but did not yet do that.
Edit: Ops sorry this is for the classic version.

Hello :) Thanks for the addon ! I want to use it for PVP and i want to see the duration of certain buff of the ennemy, like Ice block, Cloak of shadow etc... But in the options I only can chose "dispelable spell" or to see ALL buffs (and toys etc...) someone has an idea ? Thanks !
In reply to zonked82:
Currently, there is not really a pre-configured filter for important or relevant PvP auras on enemy units. The only thing right now you can do is to switch the filter mode to whitelist and add all auras, you want to see, in the filter list.
How do I decrease the view distance of the threat plates, that way I don't see every single enemy within 40 meters or whatever, I really love this addon, but whenever I do something like Motherlode, or Waycrest Manor, I'm bombarded by so many targets filling the screen, I'd appreciate any help if possible, please and thank you!
In reply to Xebenatros:
There are not that many options to control view distances. There's the general WoW view distance CVar. You can change that to a lower value in General - Blizzard Settings. Or you can enable occluded transparency (in General - Transparency). This way, nameplates of occluded units can be hidden (by setting the transparency to 100%).
