About this addon
What it does
SlickFPS
SlickFPS is a lightweight, highly customizable FPS and latency HUD for World of Warcraft. It gives you a sleek, draggable performance display for frames per second, Home latency, and World latency, with multiple bar styles, color themes, fonts, profiles, and layout controls so it can match almost any UI.
Features
- Real-Time Tracking: Displays FPS, Home Latency (H), and World Latency (W) directly on your UI.
- Smart Status Bars: Visual performance bars change color and fill behavior based on FPS and latency thresholds.
- Multiple Bar Styles: Choose from Classic Blocks, Audio Meter, Fluid Flow, Fluid Solid, Neon Glow, Neon Pulse, Prism Flow, Pulse Blocks, Scanline Fill, Signal Sweep, Status Marker, Thin Line, Tuner Pulse, or None.
- Appearance Profiles: Save, rename, delete, and switch between different HUD looks. Includes a protected Default profile.
- Row Visibility Toggles: Show or hide FPS, Home, and World rows individually.
- Persistent & Draggable: Left-drag to move the HUD, right-click to lock or unlock it.
- Low Footprint: Built to stay lightweight while updating performance data in real time.
Rename Note: SlickFPS was formerly FPSView. If both FPSView and SlickFPS appear in your AddOns list after updating, disable or remove FPSView to avoid duplicate HUDs.
