Description

ZaeUI_FriendlyPlates

Show friendly player nameplates in name-only mode with class colors and custom font size — works in dungeons, raids and open world, including on Blizzard's "forbidden" nameplates in instances.

Compatible with World of Warcraft Midnight (12.0.0+).

Features

  • Friendly Nameplates — Activates friendly player nameplates via native CVars
  • Name-Only Mode — Hides health bars, cast bars and classification icons — shows only the player name for a clean look
  • Class Colors — Colors each player name by their class for quick identification (Warrior brown, Paladin pink, Priest white, etc.)
  • Custom Font Size — Adjustable nameplate font size (8–28) via global font objects — works even on forbidden nameplates in instances
  • Forbidden Nameplate Support — Hooks into Blizzard's nameplate driver to apply settings on nameplates that are normally inaccessible to addons (instanced content)
  • Original CVar Preservation — Saves your original CVar values on first use and restores them cleanly on reset
  • Full Options Panel — Configure via Escape > Options > AddOns > ZaeUI > FriendlyPlates
  • Persistent Settings — All settings saved across sessions
