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!
Total RP 3: KuiNameplates module, by Ellypse
This module adds several customizations to KuiNameplates like displaying colored full RP names in the nameplates of players, customize pet names and even hide nameplates of non-RP players!
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.
Hi again.
Thank you for your files. They helped us identify the issue. It should be fixed in the next version (you might have to click on the reset button for the glance bar in the settings though).

Hello.
I have recently experience the problem where I tried to reload the game (Had a problem where TRP blackened out Character, Companion and Directory tabs), and it them moved my "At First Glance" buffs. Instead of being placed beneath the bar which appears when you target someone, it appears on top of it. Quite bothersome, really.
This happens to both my own and other's character.
Hello.
We haven't tried using Total RP 3 with TipTac. I will give it a try and check how it goes and what can be improved. We are trying to make Total RP 3 as compatible as possible with other addons, using nicer methods, but it's hard to be compatible with every addon out there when you are manipulating so many part of the UI. We'll do our best ;)
About the other RP functions, they will be added later as modules. We are focusing our attention to the character's sheet for now, but we definetly want to add the item creation system to Total RP 3, and all the other function (I agre witth you, the feature to "place a cache of RP goodness on the map" is neat ^^ I also want the feature to show other TRP users' location on the map back as soon as possible).
About your suggestion of having a unified protocol for languages and custom item/buff/faction/quest creation, this is very difficult to do. GHI has its own way to create items, using its own variables, totally different from Total RP 2 (and surely from what Total RP 3 will do). And they both have feature that the other doesn't have. I understand the need for this, but if a standard protocol will ever be created, it would mean a lot of features lost in the name of unification (for example, GHI feature to flash the entire screen with effect is really specific to GHI). I'll have to check on Tongues though, as a unified way of dealing with languages seems easier to implement.
Thank you for your feedback :)

That would be great. I've encountered some problems in RP because of the diffrent language systems as some use TRP and some MRP or XRP with Tongues.
I'm eager to give TotalRP3 a try, having enjoyed TRP2 since its "rebirth" so to speak! I'm very happy that you are implementing the MarySue Protocol in its entirety. Have you by chance tried it with the tooltip mod, TipTac? There was one point where it was difficult to have the high-end fancy tooltip enhancements (that changed the tip itself, not just the location etc..) but thankfully TipTac has even enabled a special profile to make it easier for MSP compatible mods and there is the additional addon "TipTacMSP" (found here on Curse) that helps as well. Between the three of them and MyRolePlay, I've been able to kudge together an implementation that "mostly" works (ie MSP character names still disappear a second after mouseover etc.), and lets me see all the fields (with the help of the TipTacMSP mod for the "Currently: " field, which isn't visible without it) . I'm curious if you've tried using TRP3 alongside TipTac (and TipTacMSP) and how well it seems to work for you!
Next, I'm curious regarding the "other RP function" mods out there, like Gryphonheart Items and Tongues. If I recall, TRP2 had ites own compehensive (admittedly a bit complex) feature sets for what these mods do, such as in-game Language support (a la Tongues) and virtual/custom item creation (a la Gryphoneart Items), plus unique other things like custom Reputations/Factions, Quests, and the very neat "place a cache of RP goodness on the map that others with the mod can see, interact with when they get to the locale in world). Will these features be present in TRP3 and if so, will they be compatible with thoe who use Tongues and Gryphonheart Items? It would be nice for there to be a unified protocol for languages and custom item/buff/faction/quest creation etc.. so everyone will be able to share no matter the mods they use, but that may not yet be possible.
Thanks in any case; glad to see this next evolution of TotalRP is still going strong!
Hello.
We are aware of issues caused by the minimap button and the profiles system. We are actively working on fixing this for the next version. We are hoping to release a new build for the end of this week.

Love the Addon, but after i logged out last night it completely stopped working for me i have uninstalled it and reinstalled it a few times changing between the client and manually...and I have used both /run TRP3_MainFrame:Show() and /run TP3_API.configuration.CONFIG_FRAME_PAGE.elements[4].callback(). And it will open the Addon window..but none of the options for the addon are working. it was working last night..but after updating ElvUI is when the problem started..so just wondering if its Elv..or just something else..after some testing..no matter what i do the map button will not work..and there are no options showing up in the addon.
Hello. Thank you for your feedback.
About the BG issue, the function used by Blizzard to point at an add-on is hazardous. It might say it comes from an add-on using the said function but the issue comes from another add-on using the same function. We have no lines of codes using the BG queuing system, so I don't see how it could come from us. We will check, to be completely sure, but could you try with only Total RP 3 on and confirm wether it comes from it or not ?
The map tracking system is planed. It was there in Total RP 2 and it was very useful. We will add it in a future version ;)

Here's my updated review.
I love it. It's really cool how you can add your own stats to your information. I kind of miss having the ability to make custom items. And, as a sidenote, today, when trying to queue for a bg, I got one of those ignore/disable error popups and it said TRP3 was the culprit. Just a headsup. Good work, keep it up.
oh, is it possible to add a feature to track people on the map like with carbonite if, say, you added them to friendly or something like that under relationship? Seems like it would be neat if you could add that.
Totally loving TRP3, so excited, however, I have one problem. I can use it on my druid, but on every other character I'm unable to click on the minimap button or move it, and I can't access the addon in any way. I was unsure what was going on, so I moved around the minimap to see if that was the issue, but it isn't. I disabled all addons but TRP 3 and it seems to not have changed the issue. I am anxious to see the addon up and running with commands, and at the moment, I am unable to really use the addon on anyone but my druid. XD
Hello.
It seems that our minimap button is beeing silly lately. Can you try running this command to reset the minimap button position /run TRP3_API.configuration.CONFIG_FRAME_PAGE.elements[4].callback() ?
You can also use this command to show the main frame /run TRP3_MainFrame:Show() and reset the minimap button position in the settings (we will make easier commands in the future).
(Nice profile picture ^^)

Hi Ellypse, I'm having the same issue many others are having regarding the non-responsive minimap button.
However, on top of that, I am unable to interact with the addon at all. It seems to load as it gives the welcome message, and has the minimap button appear. However, unless I am on the very first character I used TRP3 on (and imported my TRP2 profiles from), the addon is unresponsive. I cannot click the minimap, and using the /run TRP3_MainFrame:Show() command (or the reset minimap command you also noted) results in abnormal behaviour. The screenshot shows the window that pops up-- I cannot interact with the window at all except to close it.
edit: I cleared the TRP3 SavedVariables, reinstalled TRP2, imported all profiles on Character 1, and after disabling TRP2 TRP3 acts as expected on Character 1. But any other character experiences the freezing issues. I'm thinking its an issue with profiles imported from TRP2 not parsing properly on character load, except if its the active character...?
Hello.
Thank you for letting us now about his. I don't think it's from the profiles imported from Total RP 2. If they work on one character they will work on all of them, they are bound to the account, not a specific character. I'm thinking the issue here is still the minimap button. Something happens at loading that prevent the addon from being displayed correctly, and as the minimap button is not displayed I'm thinking it comes from here.
You can enable Lua error reports in the setting Interface -> Help -> "Display LUA errors". Could you tell us if an error happens at loading and in that case could you paste the bug report here ?

Here is the error from a non-working character.
Interesting notes: Working profiles have names in SavedVariables like "Muiren-WyrmrestAccord", non-working profiles have names like "Muiren - Wyrmrest Accord". Formatting issue?
Hello there.
Thank you for pasting the Lua error. It helped us a lot. We fully understand where the issue come from and we will fix this for the next version. Until then, the work around would be to rename the profiles imported from Total RP 2 named after the characters you are trying to log in (for example, for your toon Muiren - Wyrmrest Accord, rename the currently existing profile "Muiren - Wyrmrest Accord" from your character that don't have this issue).
Sorry for the inconvinience.

You sir, rock my socks! Both those updates and the fact that TRP3 supports RP names when using the Prat addon (MRP can't do it) makes this addon a total win. Can't wait to see the new changes in action :D
I can totally understand the reasoning for not having the databroker, and that's fine, I can do without it. I do currently have my custom statuses set in the 'current' field, but, that's all fine and dandy for other TRP3 users, however, those not using it, (there are a lot of MRP users on WrA) won't see it at a glance when looking at the tooltip of another player. They'd actually have to be bothered to select me, and view my profile just to see it. And in any case, I always thought of the 'currently' section as being IC info and not OOC.
I actually have good news. I managed to convice Telkostrasz about the benefits of using databroker, so we will use it in a future version :)
We discussed the custom RP status yesterday and it was decided to actually make it customizable (we will also be able to support MRP users' custom status that way) ;)

Hi, just wanted to say, this is amazing work so far! I think I may finally change from MyRolePlay to this after all these years.
I wanted to ask, being a person who uses a databroker bar, would this be able to support that one day? I'd rather have no minimap button and have it instead in my databroker bar at the top of my screen.
Also, a major thing with MRP that I liked, was being able to set custom statuses in both sections. So instead of using the default:
Full-time roleplayer; In character status
I was able to set my own in an edit field, for either of those sections, so that other RPers would see it as:
Full-time roleplayer; LFC / Walk ups welcome (8+ years)
Could custom statuses be implemented? That would really be the deal breaker for me, and I'm sure for many others on the WrA server. So many of them use the custom statuses to describe the type of RPer they are.
Hello. Thank you for your kind words :)
I implemented databroker in Total RP 2 for the minimap and it worked nicely with "minimap button collectors". However, it added a LOT of librairies to the add-on. Telkostrasz doesn't like to have so many librairies just for a button and we decided together to not use databroker in Total RP 3. I'll discuss this again with him, using your message to argue, but I can't promise anything for now.
I understand your point about custom statuses. We actually want to add the "looking for contact" that MRP has and we are missing. I'm not sure about custom statuses though, as, unlike MRP, we are using the RP status in more part of the add-on than just displaying it as is. Adding custom values prevent us from using standard values (on/off) for more features.
Also, Total RP 3 allows you to add a "currently" OOC, where you can add information like "LFC / Walk ups welcome (8+ years)" or any other information (youtube link to a theme, link to your guild's website) that other players will see in the tooltip. It could be used for custom statuses.
