System Message Control Tool  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.3.12
by: [V]iper [More]

This add-on breaks up a lot of the system messages (the yellow ones) into groups, which you can then decide to send to different chat windows, change the color of them or simply mute them.
It also breaks up various other messages, like the guild messages (normal, officer and MotD), into their own groups, so you can set which chat windows they should show in and in what colors.
Note that regarding the guild messages those are being set through the default chat system (right clicking the chat tab), where all others are controlled from the SMCT option window.

No message will ever be "lost" if you, for instance, delete a chat window and forget to change the setting for some message group. In that case the message will just be sent back to the original chat system to do its default behaviour.

If you want to just change the color of a message, you will have to still set which chat window it should go to. If you just leave it at "Pass-through" the system will ignore the group to speed up processing of messages.

The "Pass-through" option will just send the message back into the original chat system for it to do whatever it's setup to do, so this setting is used for all the messages you just want to act as they do now.

To access the options just type "/smct".

Note:
This has not been fully tested on non-english clients, but it should however work since everything is parsed from the pre-defined variables within WoW.

If you find any messages missing, please give me the exact message and what you did when you got it so I can add it to the system.

The amount of message groups in the system now is rather substantial. I will reorganize them and improve the overall GUI to handle them better, providing a better overview.
Improvements to the profile copy system is coming too.

Version 1.3.12:
- Added support for the SMCT: Chat Function Wrapper add-on, which will attempt to fix the duplicate messages issues that some users are experiencing.

Version 1.3.11:
- Removed some left-over debug code that could cause errors.

Version 1.3.10:
- Fixed "/who" messages not being captured properly (and hence not processed either).

Version 1.3.9:
- Added group invite message to group group (group? Group!)
- Added a new group for messages related to reputation level changes.
- Added daily quest messages to quest group.

Thanks - I completely forgot to change the string parsing for those messages when Blizzard made it so the names were clickable in the /who results.

It's fixed in 1.3.10 which I just uploaded.

I can't seem to get alliance and or neutral battleground messaged to go to floating. I have the option set to floating but alas still working like a pass-through. Any advice?

I just tried it in AV and everything worked fine. Can you give me some specific examples of what's not going through?
Do note that in AV a lot of the messages are yells and those aren't being processed (and I doubt they ever will be by this add-on).

bah forgot

Forgot the most important thing....thanks for getting this running again. This and Prat help my chat filtering a ton. Right now just separating stuff I want to know all the time in the floating always-open window is good enough. But the other functions are nice and will get into refining my other tabs more.

Some old debug code that hadn't been fully removed seemed to cause it >_<
I've uploaded version 1.3.11 which should hopefully take care of it.

Prat Module Integration?

Hi there,

i love you addon.
Is it possible to have this availbale as a module of the chat framework PRAT?

The devs say that you had some contact in the past.
Would that be possible?

Thanks and keep up the great work!

Kind regards

I was in contact with them, yes. I didn't want to make a Prat module though, but instead focus on my add-on for those who want a stand-alone add-on to do it.

I did however allow them to use the list of strings I had compiled, so they wouldn't have to go through finding all those, putting them into groups and find parsing patterns for them.

So yeah, ball's in their court

I'm trying to move all system messages to one specific window. My first request is that there is an option to batch process the list. Second, I get duplicates of all messages. I'm running PhanxChat, but that doesn't have any system filtering in it so I doubt that's the culprit. Any ideas what's going on?
