Blizzard frames w/ inc heal

I am looking for a simple UI mod.

blizzard frames that would show incoming heals, on all player frames.

I like features from other UI's but i want the original blizzard skins.


maybe 3d portraits would be nice too.


anyone know how to implement incoming heal into blizzards UI?

edit. would be nice to party buffs and targets too :-p

I was also wondering about Blizz frames having visual heal and/or heal comm support. The other healers on my guild insist on the Blizz frames, while I feel the addition of these two elements would work wonders to improve our overall healing and mana conservation.

I've looked and short of writing your own using the Healcomm lib, the only thing I could find (Lots of Incoming heal mods, just none it seems for the Blizz frames) is Visual Heal. Which would allow you to place the heal close to the frame you want to monitor.
I haven't played with it so you might be able to anchor it to the Blizz frame or even have it show over the blizz frame for all I know.
Might be worth checking out for you.

Good luck!

i have used visual heal before and it works well. but, it doesn't incorporate into the default blizzard frames.

i already have way too many bars on my screen as it is.

it's a wonder that there are so many ui frame replacements that do all these great enhancements to the unit frames, yet not one of them can be set to look like the blizzard frames.

ag frames will have to do i guess.

X-perl is an excellent alternative as well. I think they are great UI frames for people in general. It looks sorta like (More square) the default blizzard frames and comes with it's own inc heal, plus it has healer modes built in. It also does a good job of keeping all the frames together.

Anyhow, I'm actually surprised that someone hasn't written a mod that does the Inc heal to the blizz frames. When I was searching I was surprised there wasn't one. Considering all the crap people modify with mods in WoW that would be one you'd think would be a no brainer.
To bad I suck at Lua or I'd make that.

Perhaps someone could make a Blizz look-alike layout in oUF that adds Visual Heal?

You could use oUF_Neav together with oUF_HealComm to get visual heals on some of the default frames (player, target, party, pet, focus).

There's no remake of the Blizz raidframes included in the oUF layout though.

You may have to update libHealcomm itself. There's a newer version than what came embedded in oUF_HealComm over on Curse.com
