My health add on?

Guides UI and Macro
1

I don’t want to move my unit frames but wants to show my health under my player. Like just a bar. No portrait or anything. Just HP. I have something like this for energy and wanted just HP so better see if I’m going to die.

2

Enable the Personal Resource Display

I don’t see that. I’m playing SoD btw.

You’ll need a weakaura or other addon in that case.

Or if you want something small to play around with, you can post the following to the website addon.bool.no to create/down a simple player health bar.

local function CreateBar(name, previous) -- Create StatusBar with a text overlay
	local f = CreateFrame("StatusBar", "PersonalBar"..name, UIParent)
	f:SetSize(100, 10)
	f:SetPoint("CENTER", 0, -100)
	f:SetStatusBarTexture("Interface\\TargetingFrame\\UI-StatusBar")
	f.BG = f:CreateTexture()
	f.BG:SetAllPoints()
	f.BG:SetDrawLayer("BACKGROUND", -1)
	f.BG:SetColorTexture(1, 1, 1, 0.4)
	f.Text = f:CreateFontString()
	f.Text:SetFontObject(GameFontNormalSmall)
	f.Text:SetPoint("CENTER")
	f.Text:SetJustifyH("CENTER")
	f.Text:SetJustifyV("CENTER")
	return f
end

local function UpdateHealth(self) -- Update the health bar
	local health = UnitHealth("player")
	self:SetValue(health)
	self.Text:SetText(FormatLargeNumber(health) .. '/' .. FormatLargeNumber(self.healthMax))
end

local function UpdateHealthMax(self) -- Update min./max. health values
	self.healthMax = UnitHealthMax("player")
	self:SetMinMaxValues(0, self.healthMax)
	UpdateHealth(self)
end

local Health = CreateBar('Health') -- Create the health bar
Health:SetStatusBarColor(0, 1, 0) -- make it green
Health.BG:SetVertexColor(0, 0.7, 0.3)
Health:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, ...)
	if event == "UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT" then
		UpdateHealth(self)
	elseif event == "UNIT_MAXHEALTH" then
		UpdateHealthMax(self)
	else	-- PLAYER_LOGIN
		UpdateHealthMax(self)
	end
end)
Health:RegisterUnitEvent("UNIT_HEALTH_FREQUENT", "player") -- register the events to be used
Health:RegisterUnitEvent("UNIT_MAXHEALTH", "player")
Health:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_LOGIN") -- Initialise bar on login
