Description
Total RP 3 aims to be the best way to customize and describe your role-play interactions, by bringing together the powerful customization features from Total RP 2, new features asked by our users and a much better user interface, designed with usability in mind. With this add-on, you can fully customize all the information about your characters and companion (pets, battle pets, mounts), like the name, the description or even attach an image to represent them.
Our goal is to bring back the simplicity and user-friendliness of add-ons like FlagRSP and MyRoleplay but without sacrificing your freedom when defining your roleplay characters and adding neat features that you'll never want to live without anymore.
Total RP 3 implements the Mary Sue Protocol, which is also used by roleplay addons like MyRoleplay, XRP or even Total RP 2. That means Total RP 3 can understand and exchange data with all these add-ons.
Also, Total RP 3 is a fully modular add-on. So even if it will greatly expand in the future, you can choose exactly which features you want to use and won't be bothered by a complex user interface if you don't want to. This is the main module which will be required to run any future expansion.
Main features
- You can customize your characters and companions (battle pets, pets, and mounts) with a powerful profile system and quickly switch between profiles.
- Keep track of all characters and companions you met with the directory, a repository of profiles you have encountered.
- Locate other Total RP 3 users on the world map to see where people tend to gather. You can decide to appear on the map or not, or even appear only if you are in character.
- A customizable target frame, allowing you to easily reach useful actions about your roleplay target (see their profile, play their theme song).
- Chat customizations like OOC and emote detection and full role-play names using custom colors in the chat…
- NPC speeches to make an NPC say or do something during an event.
- Full Mary Sue Protocol implementation: Total RP 3 can communicate with MyRolePlay, XRP, Total RP 2 and other MSP add-ons so you can view other players information even if they are using another roleplaying add-on. (Details on the MSP implementation)
- A customizable toolbar with useful actions like switching from switching from one profile to another, switching from IC to OOC, from AFK to DND, switching languages…
- Import your existing profiles from Total RP 2, MyRolePlay, XRP, flagRSP2 and flagRSP(MoP). (Tutorial)
- Mature profile filtering to be warned before opening profiles that may contain mature content.

Total RP 3 modules spotlight
Total RP 3: Extended, by Kajisensei & Ellypse
This awesome module brings the new creation system. Create items, readable documents, campaigns with quests, customized NPCs and dialogs, loots. Use the inventory system to show items you are wearing and inspect other players' inventory. Create stashes that other players will be able to inspect. Trade items with other players safely thanks to our security level system that allows you to define authorizations per item and be sure you won't suddenly shout weird stuff because of a cursed item!
TRP3 Currently Frame, by tammymg
Adds a standalone frame to your UI that displays your "Currently" text and allows you to edit it easily.
TRP3 Location Toggle, by iMintty_
Adds a simple button to the toolbar to toggle on and off the map scan location feature.
[rp:tags], by Oraibi
[rp:tags] adds a bunch of new tags to ElvUI's Unit Frames system to expose Total RP 3 fields, like RP names, colors, and more, to be used on the player and target frames.
Just a question! ( or suggestion? ) Have you all ever thought of using a custom font to include things like unicode characters that WoW's classic font doesn't allow? I think it might be nice to use unicode characters in profiles you're usually not allowed to use ( ex., ☆, ✣, ✤, ✥, etc. ). Obviously WoW has limitations, so I understand if you can't, but I thought it would be worth asking about. :]
In reply to mannenulv:
We'd rather not package custom fonts. Using the default fonts is better to ensure that no issue happens for different languages (Russian, Chinese...) and to keep the interface consistent.
So, I'm getting this odd issue with the custom nameplates. On some characters, the NPC names are added with the custom nameplates, and in others, they aren't until I select them, and I have no idea why. From what I can tell, all the settings are exactly the same.
Edit: Nevermind, apparently a CVar got changed on those characters, for some reason. (If anyone is having this issue in the future, the CVar in particular is 'nameplateShowFriendlyNPCs' to always show NPC nameplates.)
I cannot get the kui nameplate/rp nameplate enabled on myself. All it shows me is the default blizzard text :( Please help.
In reply to SapphireSmoke:
Your own character doesn't have a nameplate, this is a limitation from Blizzard, nothing we can do.
I'm still having the problem of titles not showing, no matter what settings are checked. This is a problem with the TRP3 Nameplates module because it happens without Kui Nameplates installed.
Is there a way to completely uninstall TRP3 without losing all my character and companion profiles should I want to reinstall it in the future?
In reply to Tirasa:
The nameplates have to be configured to display in name-only mode to show full title information, in case this was missed. This is mostly because the full title information is displayed in-place of the health bar.
For Kui nameplates this is configured via their options panel ("/knp") to enable name-only mode. For the Blizzard provided ones we've got an advanced option at the bottom of the Nameplate Settings page for hiding bars on Blizzard nameplates.
In reply to Meorawr:
My settings look exactly like that and I see only prefix titles.
Is there any specific reason the language flags were removed? It was a neat feature and I and many other friends of mine are sad to see it go.
In reply to byzantineimperial:
The feature was initially conceived for Classic's launch when Blizzard's plan was to not have any language-specific RP servers. We implemented the Roleplay Language indicator to help alleviate any problems with this, but then they ended up changing course and the problem this was intended to solve largely disappeared with it.
The initial implementation was, for the most part, intended to be a quickly implemented solution that we'd later expand upon if the feature proved its worth. This meant that we limited the language selection to the locales supported by the game, and as we didn't want to disrupt the tooltip too much we used flag icons to represent languages.
The first problem we found is that, for example, there's no way for someone to declare their preferred language as being Swedish. There's far more than just the 12 game-localized languages in the world, which if we solve then we'd need to include an extremely large dropdown to accommodate additional options. By expanding this we'd be additionally concerned if it implied that we'd be open to accepting translations for the addon that step outside of the supported locales Blizzard provides for the game client, which due to technical issues isn't feasible.
The use of language flags was just a quick and easy solution at the time, but if we were to suddenly one day ship an additional 50+ languages the use of flags becomes more problematic. Languages don't really map 1:1 to a country flag to begin with, and some country flags are more obvious and well known than others. There were also technical issues with game client when it came to the use of language flags - for example you may have noticed a very brief client stutter when initially displaying a tooltip with a flag present. We investigated using a textual indicator for the language we couldn't really decide on an appropriate format - anything short like "enGB" is a bit technical, and dedicating another whole line in the tooltip for this feature wasn't really desirable either.
Finally while we exposed the preferred language for other RP addons to display, none of them implemented it in practice. Setting your preferred language in TRP as a result didn't show up anywhere within any display provided by other addons, and they also wouldn't send any information back about such either.
When evaluating the above we took into consideration what the feature was initially designed to solve and how widely used it's ended up being in practice versus the costs of solving the problems listed. As Blizzard solved the Classic RP server problem themselves, and we didn't find that the feature was being too widely used, it was decided that we'd remove it and instead recommend that people just place any preferred language information into their OOC information field. This lets you format the information however you please, means that all RP addons will actually display it.
The new 9.1 icons and music tracks (possibly the images as well) appear to be missing as selectable options during profile editing despite my TRP3 being fully updated. Is this unintentional or are they not available for use yet?
In reply to Darisper:
Just took a look - seems we forgot to bundle the data with the release. Should be fixed soon, but in the meantime you can install LibRPMedia as a standalone addon to enable the use of them if you're feeling particularly eager.
In reply to Meorawr:
Ahh awesome! Thank you very much for the quick reply!! <3
So my nameplate settings has dissapired how do you get those back?
In reply to zadris:
Go to TRP settings > Modules status and reenable the Nameplates module
I can't seem to get it to work with the BC stuff. Keeps giving me a pop up which sends me here and I've redownloaded, reinstalled, done everything I could think of and no change. Just the same pop up telling me I'm running classic version or whatever. x.x
In reply to pixelpengin:
The popup that I think you're referring to was removed in 2.3.5, so it shouldn't be present at all if you've updated it correctly, but there might be some issues with it correctly updating however since we merged the Classic and Retail projects into one. Otherwise if you're using the CurseForge client to get updates then there's apparently some issues with its BC support.
We've got a small guide for manual installation of the addon: How to install and update Total RP 3 · Total-RP/Total-RP-3 Wiki (github.com)
So WowUp.io gave me this warning message: "Curse did not return the addon when we requested it. We are no longer able to update this addon until Curse fixes it." This addon can no longer get updated through that app.
It took me a couple of upset ifs and buts, but I realized that this addon has changed names from "Total RP 3: Classic" to just "Total RP 3". The former now yields a Not found page here on CurseForge.
The WowUp.io app doesn't recognize this addon anymore, because the name got changed ...? What should I do to solve this? I certainly don't want to have to uninstall and reinstall this entire addon and remake all of my character profiles just because WowUp.io can't keep up with addon name changes and update access goes up in smoke as a result.
EDIT: ... okay, have the retail and classic versions of TRP3 simply gotten merged? Will this TRP3 still work on Classic Era realms after BC Classic goes live, seeing as the Classic Era realms will remain forever on patch 1.13?
In reply to TuanTaureo:
You'll have to take this up with wowup.io I'm afraid, we don't really have the bandwidth to support third party updater clients. We deleted the Classic project and merged it into this one - the CurseForge client has had no issue with this from what we've seen.
In reply to Meorawr:
Well, that does confirm that part of my question, now I want to make sure if this merged project will work on all three versions of WoW - retail 9.0.5, Classic Era 1.13, and BC Classic 2.x.
