You would need to create a target frame, however the "target bar" over the enemy's head can be done with a Nameplate mod like TidyPlates or Aloft (in fact this "bar" is an excellent candidate for TidyPlates). With the Nameplates changes in 3.3 (Nameplates can be seen further away, aka max targeting distance) this would be a good idea. Combine the completed plates with another mod (no work need for this combo once the TidyPlate/Aloft setup is complete) called _VirtualPlates (scales Nameplate size based on distance from you), you can fairly closely duplicate the "Target Bar" set up from Borderlands. Again the devil is getting the textures.
