- info -
I recommend installing the addon SharedMedia to get more textures and font's to play with in the options:
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/sharedmedia
I use UI scale at 75% and my monitor is 1440p resolution, you may want to scale up or down in plater depending on your own UI scale settings (you change it in the graphics setting in WoW).
I'll update screenshot 1 every now and then to show some of the later changes.
OKIDOKI PLATES
The goal:
Plates that don't cover the entire screen, but still are functional, work in progress.
About the font and bar textures:
The fonts and bar textures does not come with the game as default, so your bars and font may look different.
Change them to whatever you like, but in the pictures i use:
Font: "expressway"
Texture for the bars: "Details Flat" (I believe you have it if you use Details damage meter addon.
Other info:
Minor units = smaller plates without names
Castbar colors:
Green castbar = interruptable
Gray castbar = can't interrupt
Blue'ish castbar = channeled spell
For interrupt not ready colors, u can adjust the mod "interrupt not ready cast color" (see screenshot)
NPC colors:
The mod M+ Colored Mobs takes care of the coloring, u can change the colors yourself in the mod's options.
You can also change colors yourself on individual NPC's in the NPC Colors and Names options in Plater built in tab.
Quest markers:
The mod Jimmo's Quest Marker is adding quest progress above the nameplates, see screenshot.
Purge/dispel/spell steal etc.:
The mod Steal/Purge Aura Glow adds an obvious glowing border to the stuff u can remove if your class has the spell to do so, change it to what you want in the mod options.
--> I did not make these mod's <--
Go through the mod list and disable/change the ones you want yourself, i did not list them all here
