SCT - Damage  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 7.1
by: Grayhoof [More]

What is it? - A mod that adds your damage to SCT. It provides a way for you to see your damage in a static location. This can be useful against large mobs like those in MC, Bosses, etc...Can use SCT animations or its on built in style.

What can it do?

- Your Melee, Spell, Skill, Periodic, and Pet Damage
- Spell Damage/Resists and Damage Type (by color)
- Target and Spell ID's
- All "Miss" events (dodge, block, immune, etc...)
- Custom Colors for all text events and crits.
- Ability to show only target damage
- Four Fonts to choose from
- Can disable built in WoW damage
- Sliders for text size, fade speed, and on screen placement (with custom editbox)
- Localized to work in almost all WoW clients.
How do I use it? - First you must have SCT installed already. Next, unzip SCTD it into your interface\addons directory. For more info on installing, please read install.txt. Now just run WoW and once logged in, type /sctdmenu to get the options screen or you can click the SCTD button on the SCT options menu.

FAQ
How do I remove the damage the scrolls above my targets head? - WoW itself does this. You can turn it off by checking the the "Disable WoW Damage" option, or by going to the Advanced Options under Interface options.

My Wow Damage won't turn back on, even after I turn off SCTD! - You need to turn this back on manually in WoW. Go to Advanced Options under Interface options and you will see a checkbox to enable damage. Also, it is highly recommended you don't use the "Enable Wow Damage in PvP" option if you are on a PvP server.

My peridoic damage is not showing up in the combat log or on the screen! How do I fix it? - You have turned off periodic damage on the Advanced Options under Interface options. Make sure the "Periodic Damage" check box is checked, even if you have Damage unchecked.

I don't like friendly nameplates on. How do I make my heals appear over who I heal? - Friendly nameplates have to be on in order to show your heals. SCT will turn them on if you turn on the option, but you must manually turn them off if you don't like it (see Target keybindings).

SCTD damage is ontop of my SCT messages, how do I fix this? - I highly suggest you move SCT's message using the sliders on the SCT option menu. You can also move SCTD using the sliders on its menu. Consider placing it over you target bar.

How do I reset SCTD or load another users settings? - SCTD is tied directly to SCT. You can reset SCTD using SCT's reset button or typing /sctreset. You can load another users SCTD settings by loading them from the SCT option menu.

How do I change the fonts? - You can select from four fonts on the options page.

I don't like enemy nameplates on. How do I make my damage appear over who I hit? - Enemy nameplates have to be on in order to show your hit over the enemy heads. SCT will turn them on if you turn on the option, but you must manually turn them off if you don't like it (see Target keybindings).

Spell Filtering

I play a retribution paladin in PVE, and most bosses are immune to the "Vindication" talent... as such a need to filter it from SCTD but I'm having problems sorting out the events system.

What do I need to do? A quick explaination would be great too, just so I actually learn how to do it for the future p:

Spell: Vindication
Keeps reporting "Immune"
Only effects my target

Regards,

Revenga

I want to be able to see my crit, but not my regular "non-crit" damage. But if I uncheck the "Spell Damage" and "Periodic Damage" check box, the crits I deal wont show. Is it a bug? Is there an option I missed somewhere that let me see my crits without seeing my regular damage? Thanks

How do you get to the options?

I'm having trouble even getting SCT/SCTD working. It's installed and enabled, but typing /sctmenu or /sctdmenu does nothing (just brings up the message to type /help for more options). What do I do?

Re: How do you get to the options?

Try going to the game menu (esc) and selecting Interface, then select the addons tab. If you do not see SCT and SCTD showing up there, then you probably just don't have them installed correctly. The install.txt in the zip files should help you find the issue in most cases.

There is no add-ons tab. Where should I be looking?

And I'm sure it's installed correctly. All you have to do is put the folders in the AddOns folder, right?

Try just typing /sct. However, if you do not see the addons tab under interface options, that still points to them not being installed correctly.

/sct does not work either. And I have never seen an "addon" tab under the Interface menu, before or after installing SCT.

And I really don't understand how it could be installed wrong. The sct, sct_options, sctd, and sctd_options are in my AddOns folder, and they all have their proper subfolders and files.

Please read install.txt. Everything you are saying here is pointing to it not being installed correctly. The options screen shots shows you what it should look like.

Do you have an addons buttons on the character select page?

I did read the install.txt file. I have sct, sct_options, sctd, and sctd_options in my AddOns folder. Within the sct and sctd folders are /fonts, /libs, and /local, and various other files. The two options folders each have a /local folder and other files.

And yes all four things are enabled on my AddOns page on the login screen.

Try disabling all other addons, and only having those 4 enabled.

Re: Re: Re: How do you get to the options?

You've downloaded the wrong version of SCT. You need to download the live version (6.2), not the WotLK version (only for beta).

2 Errors.

I get these errors:

I get this one whenever i go into the SCTD Frame Options tab.

Interface\AddOns\sctd_options\options.lua:78: attempt to call global 'OptionsFrame_EnableCheckBox' (a nil value)

This when i turn on "show at nameplates"

Interface\Addons\sctd.lua:577: attempt to call global 'ShowNamePlates' (a nil value)

When i unselect "show at nameplates"

Interface\Addons\sctd.lua:584: attempt to call global 'HideNamePlates' (a nil value)

and this if two enemies come into my range

Interface\Addons\sct\sct_unitpos.lua:22: attempt to call method 'GetText' (a nil value)

I'm using both the latest builds of SCT and SCTD downloaded from WoWinterface. I've done a clean install of both (deleting everything to do with SCT and SCTD from the interface folder and the WTF folder)

It only seems to happen when i have my nameplates turned on (i cant play without name plates)
