I made a little addon to show XP bars at your partymembers portraits. It depends on LibRpc and LibTrust ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=6136') , which are also in the zipfile. I just quickly put this together, it's my first addon ever, so keep that in mind :). It has absolutely no options whatsoever (unless you want to dive into the lua code).

Also, there is a little snag, since LibRpc isn't capable of registering for remote events yet, it relies on local XP_GAIN events. Meaning, that the PartyXPBars will update as soon as you gain XP. This will change in the future.

To use it you need to do the following, let's assume you have three characters 'AA', 'BB' and 'CC':

On AA you have to do:


/trust allow BB
/trust allow CC


On BB you have to do:


/trust allow AA
/trust allow CC


On CC you have to do:


/trust allow AA
/trust allow BB


If you have more characters you have to add all of them to the other characters' trust DB.

Changes since 0.2
- LibRpc spam removed
- Using remote events now, so it updates XP bars when the party member gains XP, not when your main gets XP.
- Added XPerl_Party support. More party frames can be added by request.

Please move the debug info off the main chat... very annoying! ;)

I expect that's my debugging spew (LibRpc) that's annoying you. I'll upload a new spew-less version tomorrow.

DL it again, I bumped it to 0.2 which removes the spam, and has some other stuff ;).
