You can report bugs you find in #wowace @ irc.freenode.net to Gagorian or alternatively email me at gagorian(a)gmail.com
I'm happy to accept any help anyone wants to provide.

*** If any damage/healing calculation is incorrect, please report it. Provide as much information as possible. ***

Latest version always available at (developer version):

http://files.wowace.com/DrDamage/

DrDamage displays the calculated, average damage or healing of abilities with talents, gear and buffs included on your actionbar buttons. The addon will also add various information to the default tooltips in your spellbook and on the actionbar.

Slash Commands:

/drdamage or /drdmg

Current features:

Supports all classes
Actionbar addons supported: Default, Bartender 3&4, Bongos 2&3, CT_BarMod, DAB, Nurfed AB, CogsBar, InfiniBar, FlexBar2, TrinityBar 1&2, idActionBar and IPopBar.
Places a text with metric of your choosing on the actionbar buttons
Different damage and healing statistics from tooltips on the actionbar and in the spellbook. This includes for example crit %, spell damage and damage coefficients, averages (w/ or w/o crits/DoTs), DPS, DPSC (damage per seconds cast), damage until OOM and more!
Includes your buffs and the target debuffs in calculations

More information about functionality:

Uses mostly default WoW API to retrieve your stats, keeping tooltip scanning to a minimum
Uses the same Adaptable damage/healing calculation engine used for all the calculations
Easy table design to add/modify talent effects, spells and buffs/debuffs
Allows manual modification of the essential base stats used to calculate (you can test how much that +n spelldamage or healing would increase your spells different calculated values)

Try r=1, g=1, b=1

The integration of damage values into the tooltips would require tooltip parsing code and is outside the intended goal for the addon.

Perfectly understandable. A little setback to my eyes isn't enough for you to need to change the scope of your addon. As for the casts left on damage spells, I find it useful when I'm using particular spells (arcane blast) whose mana cost fluctuates, to allow myself some warning that I'm within a certain amount of spellcasts, etc. It also helps somewhat in knowing how my spells (I'm a elemental-spec mage, so I use nearly every spell in my spellbook to an extent) interact with each other in terms of mana cost. It's nothing terribly important, it's just something nice to have for mana conservation.

One last thing... I did just notice that there is no notice on evocation as to how much mana is regenerated while using it. Any chance of that? I'm a needly little bugger, I know. ;>>

Heh... Whether you look into my suggestions or not, thanks for coding this addon. I'll be using it for some time into the future.

Then again, I could be missing where they are if they're in. If I am, please tell me.

If not, what is the main difference (beside being aced, what I appreciate a lot)?

Well, it's a different approach to the same thing. For starters this is (at least for now) only intended for spellcasters. The design is quite different from TheoryCraft. The point is to reduce bloat and only have the crucial information. Instead of relying on reading tooltips for everything, it has a lightweight database for the stuff we want to include which allows it to work better in different locales without needing huge localization (nearly everything is done via BabbleSpell). I'm not too familiar with the TheoryCraft code but, from the glances I've seen I'd say DrDamage is easier to maintain. Also, in my opinion the strongest point compared to TheoryCraft is using the new API calls to get spell damage/heal, stats, crit % from intelligence and mana regeneration. This wont need a script to scan through all items and sum up the bonuses (which can easily leave some bonuses unaccounted for). This should improve performance and accuracy. And for now, since I started this project at the brink of TBC, nearly all talent and spell information should be up-to-date allowing higher calculation accuracy.

On the other hand TheoryCraft has a larger amount of features (including comparing item sets, DrDamage only allows manual setting of damage variables to compare changes). It's also compatible with melee and hunters so it'll serve a wider range of players.

So all in all DrDamage isn't meant to replace TheoryCraft.. Just to function as a hopefully lighter alternative to the old favorite.

I tried replacing the lib with the one from 1.0.0 and other things, but was unable to remedy this myself.

Any help is appreciated, and thanks for the addon.

Alright.. AceOO-2.0 library isn't required for DrDamage but apparently is a dependency for one of the libs. You aren't probably using any other addon that provides this library in question. I'll add it to the next version.

*EDIT*

If you don't want to wait for that you should get the standalone version of Ace2 libs from http://files.wowace.com/Ace2/Ace2.zip and extract into Addons folder

Would you hate me if i asked if/where I can change the font color of the dmg text on the icons to white and not yellow??

The average damage on the actionbar includes the average crit damage bonus. You can turn this off in the options.

There isn't an option to change the text color yet. You'd have to do it in the code. But I could add an option to change it eventually.

One more thing this addon ROX! Im using it with bartender3 and work great and also with learn2count, now i have all info at my buttons i ever wanted! and i can trun off spelltips(buttontips) carelessly thanks to Your incredible mod :-)

small, simple and useful keep the good work THANKS again

It's true that the name can be a bit misleading. When it was given its name it was only for warlocks and planned to be expanded only to mages but the project grew a bit... But I think I'll let the name remain as it is.
