How did I ever manage without it.

[Sparkz]

This is one of the must-haves :)

[NaVie]

I'm still waiting for the implementation where it says who healed me and who buffed me. But other than that, it's great.

[pail]

Absolutely could not live without this mod.

Version 3.5.4 is out. Would be nice to get it added to the distribution.

Version 4.0 is out: http://ui.worldofwar.net/ui.php?id=75

Hunterz, please don't double post.

Because this addon is not updated directly by the SCT author it needs to be tested before being added to Cosmos. This current version is cosmetic changes, there is no rush to have it added to Cosmos.

[HunterZ]

Sorry, just wanted to make sure the Cosmos team was aware in case they didn't know. Where would you prefer that I make a single post such that it would be most visible?

Also, I had no expectation of any time frame for inclusion of the new version in Cosmos. I just wanted to make the devs aware.

[Gryphon]

No problem, anywhere is fine as long as it is a single place. Most of use use other addons and watch the UI database sites regularly as well. A small few of Cosmos addons, including Atlas and SCT, are not directly added by their authors so they need to be tested before being added.

Request: on *Resisted* message, add name of resisted spell/effect.

eg: *Resisted Fireball* and *Resisted Cheap Shot*

Fantastic addon, by the way.

We don't actually maintain this particular addon. You will have to speak to the author. Probably by posting at the link HunterZ gave.

Thanks, I will.

[Xaith]

I know, you won't maintain this addon on your own.
But anyway, I would like to make a suggestion for an extra addon related to SCT.

Is it possible to make a message for gaining aggro of any monster in SCT?

If you're targeted by a monster, your little leveldot on your character portrait in the upper left corner turns into two crossed swords, showing you, that you gained aggro.
If this happens, I would like to have a red message like
"You gained Aggro of [Monstername]" or just "You gained Aggro".

Simetimes I don't notice it, for example when I turn off my sound.

[HunterZ]

I thought the swords just means that you're in combat, but maybe I'm wrong.

Also, I recommend getting a mod called SmartAssist, as it adds the exact feature you want if you use it alongside SCT.

Hm yea I guess the swords show that you're in combat, but when an enemy attacks you, you gained his aggro.
So it would be nice to see something like "You entered combat" or just "You gained aggro".

And thanks, I will give this SmartAssist a try :)

[Xavio]

I don't like all the symbols it puts around various things, like asterisks on healing. Maybe it's possible to change that now, I haven't tried it recently.

Regardless, I don't use this because I find the text too jarring, too different from the text above monster's heads.

[jgleigh]

Any plans to update to sct v4.12 and also add sctd to the distribution?

[Hel]

Is there a way to change Pet Damage Done color?

[KarlKFI]

Removed. Ace has their own hosting and development and the new version of sct requires it. Plus, greyhoof never really maintained sct in Cosmos anyway, we just had his permission.

If you still want to use it, you'll have to get it elsewhere. It shouldn't conflict.
