The recent release of TBC Classic is a great opportunity to share our favorite Add-ons, that will make your journey through Outland more enjoyable, with you. We are of the opinion that you should play the game for fun and that you have more fun if you are able to customize your experience, thus, we like add-ons and the possibilities they give. Despite some of them being rather controversial, Add-ons are an inherent part of Classic by now and most of the players can't imagine playing without them. Despite the fact that some vanilla veterans despise add-ons, there's no arguing that they make the game better by adding a lot of customization options and quality of life improvements - there's an irony here: players had wanted no changes, and then they've changed the game with add-ons anyway, sometimes to a point where Blizzard was forced to ban some of the more invasive add-ons. These placement shortcomings will only last until out of combat.While Add-ons was not a major thing in vanilla, they have certainly made a great impact on Classic. There may be cases where Blizzard code might cause some minor overlapping around the pet frames while in combat. Furthermore, the party pet frames are protected frames and addons cannot customize their appearance during combat. Note that the ShowPartyPets console variable cannot be modified while in combat. This might be convenient for players who'd like to see party pet frames only in certain situations. The addon has it's own enable / disable state which can be toggled without having to reload the ui. If raid style party frames (compact frames) are enabled, this addon lies dormant. The pet frames will be shown when the pets are nearby. Party pet frames display unit portraits, health & power bars and debuffs. PartyPetFrames manages the console variable, updates party pet frames and implements pet power bars. Pet existence is not tracked properly and the power bars have been lost. Once the console variable is set, the party pet frames mostly work with a few shortcomings. I created PartyPetFrames to restore the vanilla feeling and functionality of these frames.Ĭurrently the party pet frames are hidden behind a console variable (ShowPartyPets) that can only be changed by loaded addon code. Having pet frames is useful in some niche situations and seeing awesome pet names is fun. This feature seems to have disappeared somewhere around patch 7.0.3 and is missing in classic as well. In vanilla WoW the default party frames also showed party members' pets.
