WowAce

I Finally narrowed my FPS issue down to Shadowed Unit Frames :(

Everything is all fine and dandy until I get into a raid boss encounter, then my fps drops from 100 to under 5, and the game usually locks up afterwards.

It has something to do with the boss health frames, because when I disable them, it go back to normal.

Please help! Hard to raid without my usual boss frames! lol

To clarify, this no longer happens once you disable the boss UNIT or the boss HEALTH BARS?

@Shadowed: Go

I had to untick "Boss" under "Enabled Units" in SuF options.

Additionally, when I try to unlock my frames to reposition them, I get the below error.

Also wanted to state that it's been this way since 6.0. I've probably downloaded most alpha versions as well since the release.

Try latest alpha for the last error. You seem to be getting a lot of random errors and issues that nobody else has had though. Have you tried anything like a WoW client repair?

If there was a consistent performance issue, I would have gotten more reports by now.

No respond in 20 days, if this is an issue open a new ticket after trying a new profile/WoW repair
