Hello
 

Hello everyone,

This is my first month playing World of Warcraft. An excellent game... to bad it took me 3 years to get around to trying it. :)


I find it very hard to read the blue text over people's heads in-game, showing their name and guild, until they are very close. Does anyone know of an Add-on that lets you change the color of that text? I'm 45 and my eyes ain't what they used to be. Thank-You in advance.

Hi Talentless, great to see fellow mature gamers joining, and trust me were not alone :)

as to name plates, i use ALOFT http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Aloft

click the beta link to download, it'll take a bit of playing with to learn and to find what you want, but in my opinion you cant beat it.

Have fun in Wow, it's a great game

hehe mulesh obviously great mind think alike, and at the same time too :)

Thank- You all very much, I will try it. :D

unfortunately, i don't think Aloft will help much because nameplates aren't displayed until the player/npc gets relatively close to you and i don't believe there is any way to modify that distance.

<--- another of the "senior" crowd. only 40 tho...so still just a young'un! :rolleyes:

You are correct sir.... It's the ones in the distance that are the problem, which Aloft is not having an effect on. If Blizzard would just allow changing text color to white that would solve it for me... thanks again for helping guys :)
