Version: 5.6.113

by: Mikord [More]

Announcements:

Release version 5.6.113 should fix the issue some people were having with the cooldown sound.
Release version 5.6.112 has been updated to resolve the absorb issue where it would display "<%a> Absorbed!"
Release version 5.6.111 has been updated to support Patch 4.3.

Description:

MSBT is designed to be an extremely lightweight, efficient, and highly configurable mod that makes it easier to see combat information by scrolling the information on the screen in separate, dynamically creatable scroll areas. It is a replacement for Blizzard's Floating Combat Text and Damage output.

Features:

Lightweight and efficient design.
Scroll incoming damage/heals, outgoing damage/heals, and notifications in separate configurable scroll areas on the playing field.
Display cooldown completion alerts.
Display loot alerts with a total of how many are now in inventory.
Add triggers that will allow you to show notifications based on a variety of conditions.
Assign a sound file to play for events/triggers.
Dynamically create new scroll areas and assign any event/trigger to them.
Customize the position, size, animation style, enabled state, font style, font size, font outline, and opacity for each of the scroll areas.
Customize each individual event's color, font style, font size, font outline, opacity, output message, enabled state, and scroll area.
Set "Master Font" settings that will be inherited by all of the scroll areas and the events in them unless they are overridden at the scroll area or event level.
Merge AoE data into one event with cumulative damage/healing done with number of normal and crits specified.
Show overhealing amounts against yourself or party/raid members.
Color unit names according to their class (including CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS support).
Color damage amounts according to damage type.
Show partial effects (resists, absorbs, vulnerabilities, etc) colored according to type.
Filter output information with a full suite of spam controls.
Load on demand options.
For mod developers:
- Output your own scrolling messages with the MikSBT.DisplayMessage function instead of having to create your own frame and animation code. You can also use your own font by first registering it with MSBT via the MikSBT.RegisterFont function.
- Create custom animation styles.
- See the included API.html file for reference information.

moondawg96 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Trigger Exception for dead targets Situation: I created multiple aura removal triggers for various auras applied to a target by me. They are working great, however, when the target dies, I get spammed with all of the removals. I have tried various conditions, main events and trigger exceptions to get this to not occur. Question: Is there a way to suppress or except aura removals from dead targets? Or am I missing something? I tried initially to add a main event to the trigger such that the target health was > 0, but then I realized that main events are on an OR logic, so the trigger just spammed. If the main events were ANDs or could be set to ANDs, then I think this would have worked. I love the addon, if this is not a feature, I hope it can be one day. Thanks.

From briefly scanning through the main lua it doesn't look like there's handle for you to use combo point gains for triggers, but I could be wrong. If this is the case you would probably have to do some function writing to enable this functionality. I would suggest using Holy Power gains as a starting point, copying and pasting the new functions and handles and then modifying the functionality to track combo point gains instead of holy power.

If you correctly implement all your handles and functions you should be able to select combo points as an option from the Trigger event menu under power gains.

Deadlyz A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 33 Uploads: 0	Hi, I wonder if this handy addon is going to be updated I was trying to configure MSBT for my needs (and i'm almost done) when suddenly I thought: 'It's a great addon but what's the point to set it up if it won't be working/updated in MoP?' Last update was 1 year ago. There are already few changes i'd like to see: - would be nice if "-" (minus) had the same color as the incoming damage type: shadow damage with shadow "-" both in purple, etc. - separate animation speed for every frame or event/trigger (like we can set font or opacity). - option to filter buff gains to 'self-buffs only' __________________ Last edited by Deadlyz : 04-27-12 at 01:30 AM.

The money string is not properly formatted(the 2nd is the correct one):
http://imgur.com/a/UHqXv

Code:

local GOLD = string_gsub(GOLD_AMOUNT, "%%d ", "")

it won't work because of this(no space between words)

Code:

GOLD_AMOUNT = "%d金币";

here's the patch

All the damage data, both incoming and outgoing, is so delayed that it shows the dmg data 10 seconds after the fight is over. I have tried to turn up the animation speed etc but it doesnt seem to work. Anyone else had this problem? And how do I fix it? Thanks! ~ KimG

ideas?

Do you have the damage threshold for displayed damage on that profile set so high that it's not showing the small amount of damage your lowbie alt is doing?

One question, tho, I can't seem to find where to adjust font for trinket, and equipped item use, like gloves with engineering buff, or an on use trinket (not a pvp trinket) I've searched for days, and I think I'm just snow blind, lol. Any help is very appreciated~ __________________

Lovestar A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 7 File comments: 17 Uploads: 0	Thank you for this addon, I've found it very helpful in conveying combat log information more clearly. :> I do have two requests that would make things even smoother for me: Allow filtering of spells per scroll area, rather than globally. Instead of just a Suppression filter, the ability to choose between Whitelist (only show these spells) and Blacklist (show everything except these spells) would make setting up some scroll areas much faster. In my specific example, I'm playing a Fire Mage. I need to see when Pyroblast crits, but I do not need to see the ticks of the Pyroblast dot. However, if I Suppress Pyroblast, I won't see ticks or crits (because WoW treats it as one spellid). So if I could tell MSBT: 'Dot Ticks' scroll area: "Blacklist: Don't show Pyroblast, Don't show Living Bomb" 'Crits' scroll area: "Whitelist: Show Pyroblast, Show Fireball" it would help filter out a lot of distracting information. You can sort-of emulate this with Triggers, but those don't have the nice effect of coloring damage and effect name separately. Last edited by Lovestar : 01-21-12 at 08:42 PM.

Draigars A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 4 File comments: 36 Uploads: 0	Hi. Is it possible to play with the Merge Swings option? I'd like to have more swings merged, with only one message per 2-3 seconds (as a rogue, I'm really spammed by Melee swings). I have found a line (51) in MSBTMain (local MERGE_DELAY_TIME = 0.3), but modifying it changes the merge delay time for every action and spells, which I do not want. Thanks.
