Fiend Damage Meters Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 3.3.5-9

by: zariel [More]

Fiend - Damage Meters

I started raiding and wanted to see how my damage compared to the rest of the raid, my old damage meter Violation is great, does everything I want it to but it still uses Ace2. Which is the only addon which uses it so its pulling in huge dependencies which I dont want.

So I figured i'd write my own and keep it as simple as I can and not go crazy with features. Enjoy!

I recomend using LDB with some sort of display so you can access the menu to hide and show windows.

News

Latest version (3.3.3-7) Adds initial support for DPS! Please go test it and tell me how accurate it is. It tracks it while your in combat, ie hit something in the past 5 seconds. It resets AFTER you enter combat again, so you can view the meters. THeres a switch in core.lua to turn it off and have simple damage tracking back, as DPS is a bit of a hack around.

Features

Is able to track:

Damage
Healing
Overhealing
DPS

Simple Design
No External Libaries
Low Memory usage
Flexible design
No in-game config
LDB Feed

Also the config is all in core.lua

Config
Here is an example of how to use it, all in core.lua:73.

Code:

	-- Displays are the windows
	local win = self:NewDisplay("main")
	-- View syntax:
	-- Display:NewView(String name, String[] events, int barSize, int[]
	-- headerColor, int[] barColor)
	-- Only name, events and size are required.
	local damage = win:NewView(L["Damage"], {
		"SWING_DAMAGE",
		"RANGE_DAMAGE",
		"SPELL_DAMAGE",
		"SPELL_PERIODIC_DAMAGE",
	}, 16, { 0.6, 0.2, 0.2 })

	local heal = win:NewView(L["Healing"], { "SPELL_HEAL", "SPELL_PERIDOIC_HEAL" }, 16, { 0.2, 0.6, 0.2 })

	local overHeal = win:NewView(L["OverHealing"], { "SPELL_HEAL", "SPELL_PERIDOIC_HEAL" }, 16, { 0.2, 0.6, 0.5 })
	overHeal.overHeal = true

Also tooltips on the bars showing which abilities are used for each player (will increase memory usage though). Last edited by Skylinee : 04-10-10 at 11:23 AM.

Having used pretty much all damage meters available I believe you'll find Skada is pretty much the closest replacement for Violation these days. It's the one I now use and I too liked Violation a lot.

Aschker A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 6 File comments: 116 Uploads: 1	Like the concept, nice and small and still an interface instead of just a damage report(like damagereport does :P) but the values this mod tracks differ great (2-3%) from what recount counts and what damage report counts. The damage is always close, but for some reason the dps calculations is really different. On a fight lasting 15 seconds when just living bombing 4 targets the dps output was only half of that what recount and damagereport said, and the damage was like 50% off. Any idea? I know you said the dps track isnt that good, but when doing about 1million damage, it sometimes differs over 100k from recount and damagereport (those 2 allso differ, but thats within the 10k margin everytime on me.)
