EavesDrop

What is it? - A simple combat log that displays events similar to how SCT/D would in a log, using icons to display spells/skills. It separates incoming events (left side) from out going events (right side) from misc. events (middle).

What all can it show?
- Your hits, spells, misses, heals, etc...
- Incoming damage, spells, heals, buffs, debuffs, etc...
- Power gain
- Honor, Reputation, SKill, and Experience gain
- Mob/People you have slain
- Combat start/stop
- Timestamps and details in tooltips
- High hit stat tracking for both incoming and outgoing skills.
- Combat Summaries
- Shift+Click to paste events of history into Chat Edit Box

Where did it come from? - Original idea by Bant. Coding help/samples from Andalia`s SideCombatLog and CombatChat.

How do I use it? - Unzip EavesDrop into your interface\addons directory. For more info on installing, please read install.txt. Now just run WoW and once logged in, you will see the EavesDrop in the middle of your screen. Left click the EavesDrop Tab to drag it. Right click the EavesDrop Tab to see the options menu.

FAQ
My periodic 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.

How do I reset EavesDrop or load another users settings? - EavesDrop uses the Ace3 profile system. By default all characters use the same profile. You may change this for each character using the Profile area of the option menu. You can reset the options for the current profile using the Rest option in the menu.

How do I change the fonts? - EavesDrop uses the games default fonts. EavesDrop now supports ShareMedia, so just select your font from the options menu.

Support
Please post all errors and suggestions on http://grayhoof.wowinterface.com/ using the provided forms.

Was wondering if you could add an option to display a spell's name instead (or in addition to) the spell's icon. I'm not familiar with other class's spell icons so it's not as digestible to me as it would be if the spell's name was listed. Everything else is perfect and brief, much better than the built in combat log.

Eavesdrop hasn't been updated in ages so maybe you SHOULD get to writing your own one

Hey there. That thing with being unable to post from eavesdrop history wehen the target (or oneself) has special charactersin their name..

I stilll don't know the cause, but I have a workaround.

Open Eavesdrop.lua and replace the local function cleanstring (line 150 I believe) with this:

Code:

local function cleanstring(s)
  local _, s_end, wordend
  s = gsub(s, "|r", "")
  s = gsub(s, "|c........", "")
  _, s_end = string.find(s, "|Hunit:..................:")
  s_end = s_end - 25
  s = string.gsub(s, "|Hunit:..................:", "")
  wordend = string.find(s, " ", s_end)
  s = string.sub(s, 1, s_end-1)..string.sub(s, s_end, wordend-((wordend-s_end)*0.5)-1)..string.sub(s, wordend)
  s = gsub(s, "|Haction:([%w_*]*)|h", "")
  s = gsub(s, "|Hitem:(%d+)|h", "")
  s = gsub(s, "|Hicon:%d+:dest|h", "")
  s = gsub(s, "|Hicon:%d+:source|h", "")
  s = gsub(s, "|Hspell:%d+:([%w_*]*)|h", "")
  s = gsub(s, "|TInterface.TargetingFrame.UI.RaidTargetingIcon.%d.blp:0|t", "")
  s = gsub(s, "|h", "")
  s = gsub(s, "\n", ", ")
  return s
end

Excuse my lame-ass coding style

Does it require any updates to work efficiently and effectively under the current version of WoW? __________________ Inwe Anwame - Luna Spellsinger

Try Goose. You can set frames by framename to show/hide based on macro conditionals. So if you only want to see EavesDrop in combat, then you can tell Goose to do that.

That is exactly what it puts in the chat box when I click an event in the box. the only thing I can think of is maybe it is the á in my name?

Happens to me, too.
More specifically, it happens when any mobs or players involved have special characters in their names.
My char Mirrizal gets those errors only when interacting (i.e. pounding on) players or mobs with special characters.
-> Looks like Eavesdrop has problems with special characters. Fixable? I may even look into it myself..

As I play on a german server, I run into a lot of ppl with "ä" "ö" "ü" in their names, not to mention those who just facepalmed at the character creation screen when they found out their name was taken, and added an apostrophe somewhere to punch it through
