I fixed this mod for 2.10, added support for the new arena. I am *NOT* a LUA programmer, this is just a relatively simple patch. Any advanced requests probably won't be able to be fulfilled, but please, if you have any ideas, post them, and other modders are FREE to work on them: I'll put newer versions on here if someone uploads them.

New features:

/alf lock - locks the frames /alf unlock - unlocks the frames

From the original author:

A.L.F. is a mod for wow arena pvp. No configuration is required. Soon after entering the arena, you will see the mod title pop up, you can drag anywhere you like. During the match, as soon as you can get the info about your opponents (targeting them, moving your mouse over them, or one of your teammates targeting them), a targeting bar for that player will be added. It will show their class and their 'missing health' in a bar colored according to their class (Shamans are colored reddish to distinguish better from mages). The targeting will only be successful if you acquire the target information before becoming flagged as 'in combat'. If targets are added after you are in combat they will be semi-transparent to show that you can't click to target them.

During the match small rectangles will also appear ontop of the targeting frames. These rectangles indicate who in your party is targeting that opponent. By clicking on that rectangle you will assist your party member and target that opponent - this works even if you acquired the target information after entering combat, but your teammate must be targeting that opponent. Actually you can accidentally click an invisible assist rectangle on the wrong target frame and that will still cause you to assist, for that reason I recommend clicking the class icon that appears to the left of the health bar for regular targeting.

After the match the frame will automatically reset/disappear after a few moments. The only commands available are:

"/alf reset" - this manually resets the window. This is useful if you went straight from the arena to another arena, which can occur in unrated skirmish matches.

"/alf version" - reports the mod's version as well as the version of other members of your party or battleground, great for nagging other people to install it! Since the addon synchronizes target and health updates with your teammates, the more people who install the mod, the more reliable it will be.
