Nameplates wont overlap?

#0 - Oct. 14, 2010, 7:36 a.m.

Ok so basically my issue is that before this patch there used to be a wonderful little option that allows nameplates to overlap, well now that option is gone and it makes tanking 10x harder, When a group of mob's is together the nameplates try to avoid colliding and go crazy and all over the place to the extent were nameplates swap places or in worse case scenario sometimes dissapear entirely. Anyway, i was wondering if anyone could help/inform me as to what the go with this is? I dont understand why the option was removed from the interface menu so im a bit confused.

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated, for example a good start being as to why the option was removed.

Thanks in advance,

I'm told the following lines will help correct the nameplate issue, Boozbear.

Q u o t e:
/console bloattest 1 - Might make nameplates larger but it fixes the disappearing ones.
/console spreadnameplates 0 - Makes them overlap like they used to.
/console bloatnameplates 1 - Makes nameplates larger depending on threat percentage.
/console bloatthreat 1 - Makes nameplates resize depending on threat gain/loss. Only active when a mob has multiple units on its
