DO NOT USE CombatStats v2.03 ANYMORE

[DmgInc]

NOTE : There was a version 2.02 post on the official forums last night,
turned out it really didn't work w/cosmos, so 2.03 fixes that.

For Today's Patch

Either ..

1) Edit the .TOC file and change 4044 to 4062
2) Redownload now as I have updated the TOC file already.

Version 2.03 fixes a lot of bugs and has a few more changes as well.

- Now works w/o cosmos [really :)]
- Changed the text display frame
- Fixed the crit % running out of the frame when it was 100%
- Put "Default" attack at top of the list
- Added in a "Total", put it at the bottom of the list
- UI is now movalbe
- UI will update itself while you are attacking if it is visible
- Fixed a bug where the close "X" button couldn't be pressed
- Now uses OnEvent and OnUpdate
- Pet damage is now tracked
- DOT damage totals are correctly shown
- Hopefully got rid of bogus entries
- Chat slash commands are in as well


/cs -or- /combatstats prints the help
/cs enable [on | off] turns it on or off
/cs target [on | off] en/disables the only show the DPS meter when you have a target
/cs reset yes - resets all the data to 0

Trying it...
I have a problem, the detailed info window stays open. I managed to close it once but now the next time I can't get rid of it. Not even if I disable combatstats.

Btw.. it would be really nice if the detailed info window was movable.

[sarf]

Cool!

I hope we can get our own bugs ironed out so we can stop the feature freeze - this seems very neat!

You have to click the X to close it.

[Anonymous]

dunno if you know about this or not, but there seems to be some sort of bug where the [X] will get stuck behind the window, making it difficult to click. i'll post you a screenshot if i can make it happen again.

I noticed the same thing right off the bat as well. I did some toying around with his xml file and found that if you repo the X outside from the widget window, you can click on it. His positioning dependancies unfortunately are off-kilter, and if you move the X button, it'll screw up the display of the stats.

Additionally, I know he has the window set to hide itself once you mouseoff the DPS minibar, but it doesn't rehide itself. I'll work on this later and see if I can come up with a fix. It's a usefull tool worth fixing :)

Also, it'd be really nice if we could get stats that refresh themselves in the window live. I know it's possible. Maybe serf can help him out with it?

[luizofoca]

i really liked this new windows with the stats separating every time of move... =) u can see what move is better what gives more criticals...

[l337vegeta]

that would be really nice too. if that could work out, i might not even need an x button :p

if this is possible (can't think of why it wouldn't be), i think someone should add an "All Attacks" section to the list at the bottom. that way you could see you totals, and not just a single attack.

[CheshireKatt]

I'm having a problem with the damage calculation with a few of my warlock spells.

First, Drain Life shows up in two different ways. It shows up as "Drain [DOT]" for drain life damage, and "Drain Life" for resists. Neither one of those shows any information at all for the actual damage dealt -- just # of hits out of # of uses, and % of overall damage, but no crit or damage stats whatsoever. And, of course, both of these are the same spell, and should be in the same item in the dropdown, both of them listed as "Drain Life [DOT]".

"Corruption [DOT]" and "Immolate [DOT]" are the same way as far as not having any information displayed. Hit count, % of overall damage, and that's else, everything else is zero. (Edit: I just picked up Siphon Life, so I'll update this post this evening hopefully to let you know how it ends up working out, but I'd wager it works just like the other DOTs)

So it looks like the dot parsing might be a little confused, at least as far as warlock dots go. It gets Curse of Agony just fine, but that's probably because Curse of Agony gets reported to the game as if it were a melee attack.

All that aside, I *love* what you've done with the UI. If you could make it draggable (and by dragging that would set the pop-up position for future mouse-overs of the DPS tooltip...hmm...this would probably require a "Reset DPS display position" button for the Cosmos config too) that'd be absolutely epic, but hey, I love it as it is anyway.

Thanks for all your hard work!

[CheshireKatt]

I figured I'd make a second post rather than this disappearing in my rather chatty previous post.

I was thinking -- you can get the player's Pet name, so would it be possible to watch for pet ability resists / uses / damage as well?

All of this information is, I believe, available in the chat, so it should be possible to track my pet's DPS, his hit / miss / dodge / block / parry stats, min-max melee, and ability usage / damage / resist / etc stats too.

Perhaps a second dropdown, that would select player or pet (by pet name, as over the course of a play session a hunter or warlock -- or priest using Mind Control, or anyone with a Gnomish Universal Remote / Mind Control Cap -- might use differently-named pets).

Another idea would be to have the "overall dps" display option have a dropdown for showing Player or Specific Pet + Player damage stats, and track ability usage based on not just the ability, but the pet that was out while they were in use, as my DPS with say, a Voidwalker out, might be a different breakdown of ability usage than it would be with a Succubus out, and so tracking ability usage by which pet is in use could be pretty handy for determining an optimal build for a particular area.

[DmgInc]

Yes pet tracking is coming soon.
Also, the [DOT] data will be shown differently, heh or shown period, in the next version as well.

Woohoo! I can't wait. I *love* this mod.

Thanks for all your work on this, I appreciate it!

[sarf]

Two or three things.

You manually set your close buttons framelevel to 6. This is not optimal.

Use the following code in its OnShow instead: local parent = this:GetParent();
if ( parent ) then
this:SetFrameLevel(parent:GetFrameLevel()+5);
else
this:SetFrameLevel(6);
end
Note that it is not always optimal to use HideUIPanel either. HideUIPanel(something) and something:Hide() is NOT equal in functionality. :(

Also, you use CombatStatsDataFrame_UIElement... you can replace CombatStatsDataFrame with $parent, you know?

Anyhow... great AddOn!

I couldn't afford a cool signature, so I just got this one.

[DmgInc]

A new version should be coming today.

Bunch -o- fixes, and yes it's movable :)

[Anonymous]

I love this Addon!

The two features it needs are to be moveable and real time updating. Then it would be near perfect!

Thanks for all the hard work.

[Anonymous]

Any ETA on the updated CombatStats?

[Lycaon]

I may have skipped over it but is this standalone or Cosmos-dependent?

I'd love to use this but at the moment I don't want to install Cosmos.

[Anonymous]

The darn servers aren't being too terribly cooperative. I am trying to test out the pet damage tracking.

Also, this next version will not require cosmos.

[DFX]

If you need help testing, I'd be glad to help you out. I really enjoy this mod.

[DmgInc]

/bump

Read the first post for the latest version.

[DmgInc]

Should also mention if you run it w/o cosmos it is turned off by default. You will need to enable it via "/cs enable on".

Huh?

If you downloaded before this timestamp and want to use it w/o cosmos...grab it again. I forgot to include the Print function.

[Anonymous]

Great addon.

I have a suggestion:

Have a listing of how many times I blocked, dodged, resisted, etc.

[WiZCoke]

Here is another suggestion if it is possible...

Add Kill Stats showing how many of each creature you killed and what experience you got from it (and average).

[DmgInc]

Mob tracking is coming in the next version.
Also the Mob attack stats against you as well.

[DmgInc]

Any luck on updating this with the defensive dps thing?

[Henna]

I would love it if I could move CombatStats! Since it defaults to stick above the playerFrame, I'm unable to use GypsyMod UnitBars inverted. It would absolutely rock if I could use both CombatStats and inverted Unit frames :D

[Anonymous]

Hey I was trying to install this last night and I cant seem to get it to work. I currently am running Gypsymod...(myabe thats the problem?)

If soemone could point me in the right direction in how to install this that would be great.

Hi guys!

I haven't forgotten about this mod.
I have just been too busy playing :)

I will be releasing an updated version this week!
That will contain Defensive DPS, and mob KillLog (in its early stages).

For Henna : You can move it, but in it's current form it is REAL sensitve to find the hot spot to move it, the fingertip of you mouse point has to be pretty much right in the middle of the border frame, then just click and drag.

Frostwolf : Yes it will work w/Gypsy mod, or anymod for that matter. Presumably you don't have cosmos. What you need to do is type /cs enable on in your chat. You will need to do that everytime you login in the vesrion you have because I forgot to save the enable status if you aren't using cosmos. That will be fixed in the next version.

[Anonymous]

Hey It's the same guy again who posted above you DmgInc. Csma from Frostwolf. Ok so yeah I have not checked back at the boards (cause I've been busy playing!) but I was still unable to get your Mod working on my system.

Do I need to unzip the file into a certain directory other than my WorldofWarcraft folder? Because what I did currently is that I just unzipped it straight into my World of Warcraft folder.

Looking forward to using your Mod!

[cliffjeff]

hey, love your mod ;P and I know people are always flooding you with suggestions/requests, but I have an idea as well... perhaps an alternate 'party mode' where it doesn't track individual spell/skill DPS, but instead tracks your total DPS vs. party members' total DPS? like, 1 entry for each member of your party, so you can see who's doing the most damage, etc? would such a thing be possible, or would you have to tell it who's in your party and their pets' names and stuff?

another thing - sometimes I have to question the accuracy of the DPS meter... it generally says my 24 warlock is doing around 20-30dps and I have trouble believing it could be so low :( my 23 hunter does 60-70dps for instance... I'll do some calculations on what dps I EXPECT to be getting and post again later...

edit: unless it's my hunter's DPS that is reported as too high =P

[Lingering]

i am trying to get CS to work with gypsymod, i extracted the file in to my Interface\Addons dir so i had the Combatstats dir in there. When i go in to game and try typing /cs or /combatstats i get command not found. Am i forgetting something or something i am not seeing to do first? or did i just put it in the wrong place?

THanks

Probably need to change the TOC #.
Just edit CombatStast.toc and change 4062 to 4114.

[topi]

possibility you put a button after overall dps and in click on button make open the status window
loot of time i didont want open but with mouse actions always get opened

[topi]

another ask with upcoming save funtions in toc possible to save actual infos so if you reload nto reset the stats?

[DmgInc]

This change is already coded and will be in the next version.

[DmgInc]

I think I can actually do that now.

[Anonymous]

Just wanted to give you a heads up that I updated the cosmos CVS version to change the mouseover behavior to onclick. Please merge the code back in before your next release.

I cannot get this mod to work with gypsymod. It looks like a few others in this thread are having the same problem. Anyone have any ideas? my .toc version number is correct, and I can use /slash commands but they do not seem to do anything.

[DmgInc]

I haven't given up on this mod, have just been really busy.

I do have a 3.0 alpha in the works. It is tracking defensive DPS and stats, as well as a mob kill log. The mob kill log just needs a UI and then i can put out a test version.

To the person above, it should work if you just do /cs enable on
If that doesn't do the trick, I'll have to check it out.

[Anonymous]

CombatStat seems hardcoded for the english client. As in the german client the combat-messages are in german the parsing fails.
Example: string.gfind(arg1, "(.+) suffers (%d+) (.+) damage from your (.+).") doesnt find anything because a sentence like that will never occure in an non-english client.

is there a fix to it yet?

-lith

[Anonymous]

Yeah I do not think your download off your website works with Gypsy, as others and myself are having problems getting it to work.

So what I did was I went and installed CTmod, (which works really well with gypsy) and got combatstats that way, and it works perfectly.

So combatstats does work with Gypsy, you just need to grab it from CTmod to get it to work.

~Csma

[Chasim]

Hrm, I've been using CombatStats (ripped right out of Cosmos) with GypsyMod with no problems at all. The only trick is that you do have to type "/cs enable on".

(Wondering if the /cs enable on setting can be saved somehow outside Cosmos - I PM'd DmgInc about it.)

[Anonymous]

It seems his direct stand-alone link has some strange problem when being used with Gypsymod, so, either rip it off of cosmos or CTmod.

[Anonymous]

nice AddOn, but are you going to make a version which work with the german client? would be really nice :-)

[sarf]

You may find a working CombatStats version in the Cosmos_latest.zip file.

so where is combatstats for the german WoW? :wink:

Is a new version coming out any time soon? Or is the curse site just really old? (curse says newest is 01/13/2005)

Some things that could make this even better
-it saves the boolean if its enabled on or off (otherwise users need to type every login, or they need to edit the source)

-totem damage (example: searing totem) is currently showing up as pet damage :P

If I knew a new vesion was coming out, I could help test shaman totems if you need a char to help out with that.

[sarig]

have trouble with this combatstats:( its ist WORK with latest cosmos releaze! when i download latest alfa-version it work normaly! but in alfa is badly spam in general chat:( any suggestion?

[DmgInc]

Don't use this one anymore, it is old news. Use the 3.3 version. There is a post here about it.

[Anonymous]

for some reason, when i have this open, all the stats r at zero, as if im not doing anything. also the drop down menu doesnt work. i am a hunter if that helps my diagnosis.
