I would like to remove default nameplate's buff frame

Hi,

I would like to remove default nameplate's buff frame and make myself a custom buff frame.

Lua Code:

local function ModifyNamePlate()
    NamePlateDriverFrame:HookScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
        if (event == "NAME_PLATE_CREATED") then
            local nameplate = ...
            if (nameplate and nameplate.UnitFrame) then
                local buffFrame = nameplate.UnitFrame.BuffFrame
                if (buffFrame) then
                    buffFrame:UnregisterAllEvents()
                    buffFrame = nil
                end
            end
        end
    end)
end

I thought this would remove the frame, but it didn't...

What would have I done wrong :confused:?

I've been doing some further research on those nameplate addons, but could have not found any solution...

It would have been easier to understand if it gave me some errors, but it is not even throwing one :confused:

Hiding the buff frame will hide the frames and make it stop responding to events.

Lua Code:

nameplate.UnitFrame.BuffFrame:Hide()

So, it won't give any affects on CPU usage?!

It should lower usage as it is no longer drawing or in need of processing.
