DragonUI_AddOnSkins is a World of Warcraft 3.3.5a (WotLK) addon that provides retail-style visual skins for popular third-party addons. Its primary function is to modernize the appearance of legacy addons to match the look and feel of the current retail WoW interface.
DragonUI - DragonUI addon is required to load DragonUI_AddOnSkin
Addons skinned
- Details! Damage Meter skin
- Skada
- CompactRaidFrame
- WIM
Key features include:
- Details! damage meter skin: Applies a gold title header, near-invisible background panel, and class-colored bar textures to the Details! addon
- Modular design: Built to support skins for multiple addons (currently focused on Details!, with framework for others)
- Persistent settings: Skin enablement and options (like background opacity) are saved across sessions and reloads
- Integration: Uses DragonUI's options panel for configuration, with localization support via AceLocale
- Texture atlases: Employs custom BLP texture sheets for efficient rendering of skin elements
- Lifecycle management: Properly installs, applies, and uninstalls skins while respecting Details!'s skinning system
The addon essentially acts as a bridge between the 3.3.5a client and modern UI aesthetics, allowing players to enjoy updated visuals without losing functionality of their preferred addons. When enabled, it transforms the Details! damage meter from its default appearance to a sleek, retail-inspired interface while maintaining all core features like DPS/HPS tracking, threat display, and customizable views.
