What is Perl Classic?
Perl Classic Unit Frames are a complete rewrite of the original mods by Perl. They replace the default Player, Pet, Target, Target of Target, Party, and Party Pet frames and add dedicated frames for many other units (Focus, Focus Target, Party Target, Target of Target of Target). It has been a high priority to maintain the look and feel or the original Perl mods while expanding functionality. The mod has been recoded for performance and is built around the Blizzard UI usage of events.

Q&A
-----
Q: I'm seeing double party buffs for some reason, what gives?
A: 99% of the time this is caused by CT_PartyBuffs. Simply remove the mod and you will return to having one set of party buffs.
Q: I am having massive dead spots for clicking on some of the unit frames, what's wrong?
A: This can be caused by a number of mods, but the most common seems to be CT_MovableParty. Please remove this mod as Perl can be moved without the use of this mod.
Q: The default party frames are showing up with red lightning bolts. What's going on?
A: As of version 1.503 of CT_RaidAssist this should no longer be caused by CTRA. The settings for this are now located in the WoW settings under Interface Options -> Basic -> Raid -> Hide Party Interface.
Q: Do you support ArcaneBar?
A: Yes, it is included in your download of Perl Classic.
Q: Will you be adding any features to Perl_PlayerBuff?
A: No, my coding for this mod goes as far as making sure it 'works.' If anyone would like to expand upon it, feel free to do so.
Q: Where are the raid frames?
A: As of 2.0 I no longer code raid frames for Perl Classic. Luckily, X-Perl's raid frames work great alongside Perl Classic. X-Perl's raid frames (and the unit frames themselves) can be found here: http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/3416/
Q: The scaling is all messed up! What do i do?
A: I recommend setting the scale to that of the UI if you are having issues. Open the options menu via "/perl" or the Black Pearl icon on the minimap and set the scale accordingly under the "All" tab.
Q: I am having an issue not listed in this FAQ, what can I do?
A: First, update *every* mod. I do not support ancient outdated and unmaintained mods. If you have double checked that everything is up to date, post on any of the Perl Classic mod pages and I'll be glad to help you narrow down the issue or give suggestions to help find a solution.
Q: Can you add this feature?
A: I'm sure it's possible, but the primary purpose of this mod is to 'modernize' the original Perl mod so that it doesn't slow your game down.

Sorry for this.
Greetings

Global said@Ektor: The issue you are having is related to your hotbar mod, not Perl. Perl only modifies the unit frames and does not interact with your hotbars whatsoever.

Ektor saidHi Global,
I have a question to this great mod!
I used it since the releas. During this time there was a version including the possibility to switch only between two bars by holding shift + using mousewheel up or down.
Pleas readd this feature!
It's damn surprising when during a great PvP fight you start to rebuff your target or yourself cause the wrong bar has been chosen.
Pleas go on with this mod, its one of the best ever.

Global said@rassvet: It can be localized to any language. I can PM you later with the information needed to start localizing it if you wish. If you look at the other localization files though in the Perl_Config and Perl_Config_Option folders, it's pretty straight forward :)

rassvet saidHello. It is the best unit frame addon. Whether it is planned to localize addon for Russian realms?

Global said@tyranni: Are you sure you have a focus target set? Target someone and type "/focus". A frame should then show up. If one doesn't, try resetting the frame positions on the All tab of the options.
@gordon1986: Some portions of the Secure API were changed, but none that affect Perl Classic. Technically, all that was needed to get it working was a single function change in Perl_Target and the removal of all of the Perl_Config dependencies. It is still required to run, but no longer enforced. Hopefully that gets fixed on Blizzard's end in a future patch. I also took this opportunity to tweak and fix a few other things which can be found in the changelog.

gordon1986 saidIs there a WLK port in the works? I heard that the secure frame API was changed.
local isWLK = tonumber(select(1,GetBuildInfo()):match("(%d).(%d).(%d)"))==3
Is what I use to check to see if it is a WLK client.

tyranni saidFirstly, thank you for a great addon and quick responses to player concerns.
I am having difficulty with my Focus Frame. I clicked the box to turn the focus frame on, but it does not come up. Any suggesions? Also, why is the option to turn the focus frame not located in the focus tab window?

elusif saidMy player avatar is 3d, my target avatar is 3d but my raid party member avatars aren't 3d and I have display portrait frames and 3d portrait frames selected in the party options menu.

Global saidPerl Classic doesn't have raid frames, and certainly doesn't have raid portraits. If you are referring to the party frame, be sure that the 3D option is also enabled in that section of the options.

Global saidNew version has been posted that fixes a bug in the new MobInfo2 code. Since I have no idea why it takes so long for this page to update, here's a link to the new Curse page which already has the file.
