What is Perl Classic?
Perl Classic Unit Frames are a complete rewrite of the original mods by Perl. They replace the default Player, Pet, Target, Target of Target, Party, and Party Pet frames and add dedicated frames for many other units (Focus, Focus Target, Party Target, Target of Target of Target). It has been a high priority to maintain the look and feel or the original Perl mods while expanding functionality. The mod has been recoded for performance and is built around the Blizzard UI usage of events.

Q&A
-----
Q: I'm seeing double party buffs for some reason, what gives?
A: 99% of the time this is caused by CT_PartyBuffs. Simply remove the mod and you will return to having one set of party buffs.
Q: I am having massive dead spots for clicking on some of the unit frames, what's wrong?
A: This can be caused by a number of mods, but the most common seems to be CT_MovableParty. Please remove this mod as Perl can be moved without the use of this mod.
Q: The default party frames are showing up with red lightning bolts. What's going on?
A: As of version 1.503 of CT_RaidAssist this should no longer be caused by CTRA. The settings for this are now located in the WoW settings under Interface Options -> Basic -> Raid -> Hide Party Interface.
Q: Do you support ArcaneBar?
A: Yes, it is included in your download of Perl Classic.
Q: Will you be adding any features to Perl_PlayerBuff?
A: No, my coding for this mod goes as far as making sure it 'works.' If anyone would like to expand upon it, feel free to do so.
Q: Where are the raid frames?
A: As of 2.0 I no longer code raid frames for Perl Classic. Luckily, X-Perl's raid frames work great alongside Perl Classic. X-Perl's raid frames (and the unit frames themselves) can be found here: http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/3416/
Q: The scaling is all messed up! What do i do?
A: I recommend setting the scale to that of the UI if you are having issues. Open the options menu via "/perl" or the Black Pearl icon on the minimap and set the scale accordingly under the "All" tab.
Q: I am having an issue not listed in this FAQ, what can I do?
A: First, update *every* mod. I do not support ancient outdated and unmaintained mods. If you have double checked that everything is up to date, post on any of the Perl Classic mod pages and I'll be glad to help you narrow down the issue or give suggestions to help find a solution.
Q: Can you add this feature?
A: I'm sure it's possible, but the primary purpose of this mod is to 'modernize' the original Perl mod so that it doesn't slow your game down.

Global saidNew version has been posted that fixes a bug in the new MobInfo2 code. Since I have no idea why it takes so long for this page to update, here's a link to the new Curse page which already has the file.

Global said2.20 should hopefully fix the broken MobInfo2 support and with any luck, fix the errors it was throwing before. If you would like to download it before it shows up on this page, follow the link: http://wow.curseforge.com/projects/perl-classic-unit-frames/files/16-2-20/

DohNotAgain saidWith this update I don't get mob health shown at all, just % values. I'm using mobinfo2 also. I just checked and its version 3.61. I have not found a later version since Skeeve retired completely from the WoW universe.
So far I've not been able to find any settings in either mod that could be causing this problem. Maybe I'll rename my saved variables file so it resets everything to see if that helps.

Schladorn saidI have this problem as well, I haven't tried to delete my saved variables, but that would suck to have to do so as well, all data then would be lost.

Global saidI'll probably just end up rewriting all the code to support MobInfo2 specifically since MobHealth2 isn't being used anymore (I hope).

Global said@asole & dector: I just installed MobInfo2 and went and did some duels. I'm not getting any errors on my end. Could you perhaps give some more in dept steps to reproduce this error, or perhaps backup your SV file for MobInfo2 and then try to reset its mobhealth database. It just seems like something is getting corrupt on its end.

Global said@fusey: It would probably be a lot easier for the Feed-O-Matic author to add support for Perl Classic than the other way around. Perhaps you could see if he would do it.
@Adema88: No. I may add this for 3.x though.
@asole & dector: I'm going to look at the MobInfo code and see what has changed lately since this worked fine for over 2 years before just recently.
@ylitil: Open Perl_Target.lua and search for "Perl_Target_NameFrame:SetBackdropColor(0, 0, 0, 1);". The 3 0s represent RGB colors, so just put a value between 0 and 1 in there and experiment some.
@Hashani: Not too sure what the problem is. Download the zip files, extract contents into your WoW\Interface\AddOns folder.
@krolling: The background bar color won't change, but the text color will.
