I untoggled "Show Percentage" and it just affects party members.
Being a hardcore TBC player on retail back in the day, I am well aware that this option was available without addons.
Is there a fix for this, or an addon?

It wasn't available without addons, they have been over this a million times and there has been a lot of proof thrown around to nail this in. When I dug through my old TBC photos I also found that mob/pvp player health was not shown, it was for that reason that addons existed to collect data to build a library of mob health in order for you to have this feature.
Addon is called Mobinfo
Looks like you were not hardcore pleayer , this was never implemented in the game before WOTLK. Use Mobinfo2Quote:

We had exact HP's of all targets without addons on Retail, and this is how we chose who to burst down in 2v2's.
You are right, I wasn't a pleayer, I was a player.
Patch 2.4.3 hit after season 3 , in July 2008, nearly 10y ago, after S3 ended, based on publicly checkable information online.
It is a big inconvenience for me. I well remember that I used only Recount and Atlas then...
Thank you very much in advance.

There are now options for displaying health and mana values on your health/mana bars for you/your party/your target and to display that information either as percentages or as numbers.
This pretty much nails it in, I do not know why this server ignores this. This is black and white, crystal clear.
The change you are quoting does not behave in quite the manner you think it does.Quote:

The change you are looking for was implemented in patch 3.0.2 http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Patch_3.0.2/API_changes
The relevant changes are:
UPDATED - UnitHealth("unit") -- No longer masks value as 0-100 on enemy units
UPDATED - UnitHealthMax("unit") -- No longer masks value as 0-100 on enemy units
UPDATED - UnitMana("unit") -- No longer masks value as 0-100 on enemy units
UPDATED - UnitManaMax("unit") -- No longer masks value as 0-100 on enemy units
Where it says that a value is masked, it means that you don't see the exact value (e.g. he has 357/9457hp) you see the masked values (4/100).
