What other addons are you using? It's probably one of them blocking it at first. Works perfectly for me, as well as several others that I've asked.

I'm not sure if he ever had thought of it or not, but it sounds like a good idea. It might require a slight rewrite, but it definitely sounds like something I should toss on the To Do list.

It only just started that for me after 4.0.3 for some reason, so never noticed it before. It turns out the addon was just loading way too early.

I wanted to see the name of the person I killed and I also wanted to see only pvp killing blows, not pve mobs. I thought I could write the changes made here in case someone else wants the same: Replace the following code Code: ("OnEvent", function(_, _, _, event, guid) if event == "PARTY_KILL" and guid==playerid then msg:AddMessage("KILLING BLOW!", 1, 1, 0) with Code: ("OnEvent", function(_, _, _, event, guid, _, _, _, destName, destFlags) if event == "PARTY_KILL" and guid==playerid and bit.band(destFlags, COMBATLOG_OBJECT_CONTROL_PLAYER) > 0 then msg:AddMessage("KB: "..destName, 1, 1, 0) and if you wish to see pve mob killing blows also then just remove this part from the latter code Code: and bit.band(destFlags, COMBATLOG_OBJECT_CONTROL_PLAYER) > 0 edit: These changes were for version 1.2 Last edited by eccentric10 : 11-22-10 at 03:20 AM.

Replace the following code

Code:

("OnEvent", function(_, _, _, event, guid) if event == "PARTY_KILL" and guid==playerid then msg:AddMessage("KILLING BLOW!", 1, 1, 0)

with

Code:

("OnEvent", function(_, _, _, event, guid, _, _, _, destName, destFlags) if event == "PARTY_KILL" and guid==playerid and bit.band(destFlags, COMBATLOG_OBJECT_CONTROL_PLAYER) > 0 then msg:AddMessage("KB: "..destName, 1, 1, 0)

and if you wish to see pve mob killing blows also then just remove this part from the latter code

Code:

and bit.band(destFlags, COMBATLOG_OBJECT_CONTROL_PLAYER) > 0

edit: These changes were for version 1.2

If you wouldn't mind, would it be alright to upload that as an Optional File?

Yes, but it wouldn't be difficult to do so with little to no knowledge.

eccentric10 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 6 Uploads: 0	Hi, I noticed you put up the optional file, however it doesn't work because you have added an extra dot in the lua code. the part with: Code: ("KB: "...destName, 1, 1, 0) should have been Code: ("KB: "..destName, 1, 1, 0) While at it, could you also change COMBATLOG_OBJECT_CONTROL_PLAYER to COMBATLOG_OBJECT_TYPE_PLAYER in the code. Thank you. (the old one was reporting grounding totem "kills" and possibly some other non-player kills) Last edited by eccentric10 : 11-26-10 at 07:17 AM.
