Essential Roleplay Addons

My list:

  • TRP3 Extended. Customize to make a unique character profile as well as additional roleplay tools like inventory, custom items, custom quests/campaigns, and NPC speech.

  • Dicemaster. Use to create a Tabletop RPG stat sheet complete with an intuitive dice-rolling tool that takes your stats and automates the modifiers for you. Even works for those who don’t have the addon (yet)! Also included are custom unit frames to serve as visual references for players, a DM interface to keep track of rolls, give banner alerts, and award experience!

  • Elephant. Keep a record of everything entered into your chatbox! Useful for non-roleplayers as well. Even features a copy and paste!

  • Extended ChatMessage. Any variation of this is essential to allow you to type messages beyond the maximum default. Now you can drop your walls of text unimpeded!

  • Musician. Seriously, who wouldn’t love to play and hear music with other players using your keyboard as your instrument?! Many instruments (including voice) available and you can even save and share original compositions to perform!

Like my list? What else do you all recommend?

Is tongues still a thing?

No… you can’t bypass the faction barrier with it any more nor as far as I know there is any futher support for it. but you can buy potions of tongues at Broken Isles Dalaran so that you can understand the opposite faction’s languages. Both need to imbibe to communicate though.

Thanks *Ten characters

Yeah…and the creator would rather work on dragon race language vs adding in the allied race support or was it ogres i forget what he replied on the comment -

Got that one. I haven’t gotten to do a lot with the item-creating when it comes to actual roleplay, like I did with GHI back in the day. But I do like what’s possible with it.

Yaas. What is more, it tells you when another person with DM is working on an emote. I wish TRP3 had that, so you could just target the person and it’d give you a “Raedolf is typing…” text blip.

Definitely useful. Especially as a guildmaster, both for roleplay and OOC things. I can go review past RP, or look back over what somebody said in whisper. I don’t have to screenshot everything anymore. If someone tries to lie, I can go look up and copy-n-paste what they said.

I have UnlimitedChatMessage. Same thing, or different?

Let’s see. Main one I recommend, that I don’t see on your list yet, is Misspelled. Basic spellcheck. Word shows up light blue if spelled incorrectly, and right-clicking gives you suggestions you can select.

I feel like there was another one I use… but I don’t remember what it was.

Okay, this is epic.

Still a great addon. I use it for Trolls and Draenei
I use custom accents though, the Troll accent isn’t expansive enough and Tongues’s stock Draenei accept is terrible. I think they were trying for authentic Russian but Draenei don’t sound authentically Russian, they sound like Boris & Natasha.

The CrossRP addon is still relevant. The Elixir of Tongues translates /s, but it does NOT translate custom emotes, which are used very often in RP. CrossRP returns this functionality.
