Version: 5.7.138
by: Mikord, Resike

Announcements:

  • Version 5.7.134 is updated to work with Warlord of Draenor Patch 6.0.2 and fixes the font preview issues.
  • If you are having issues with the fonts "resetting" on initial game load, update to Version 5.7.137.
  • Version 5.7.138 corrects issues with several triggers like Kill Shot and Hammer of Wrath.


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 player and pet 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.

ScytheZ:

That explains it. WoW's combat log implementation was significantly changed from version 2.4.3 to version 3.x (WotLK) and they are completely incompatible with one another.

All mods that make use of the combat log (which includes scrolling text type of mods, boss mods, etc) that have been updated to work with WotLK will not work with any game versions prior to 3.0.

The last released version of MSBT that worked on the WoW 2.4.3 code base was 5.2.14. I'll PM you a link to where you can download it as it's no longer available through the official distribution sites.


Deviant:

That is an unfortunate limitation of the way WoW reports the events. WoW reports auras fading from a target as a part of the process of the unit dying, but before it's actually dead. As a result, checking if a target is dead at the time the aura fades won't help, because well, it's not really dead yet (in other words, WoW has not flagged the unit dead yet). There is no API call to check if it's "in the process" of dying either.

Heya it's me again

First of all, thank you for adding the combat/offcombat exception, works like a charm.

Now for my question! Since I play a paladin, keeping judgements up on my target is pretty important stuff. I have a focus macro for that and I made a trigger that tells me if JoL on my focus target falls off. However, it also triggers when the target dies. I tried to add "Trivial target" exception but it doesn't seem to be what I was looking for (I'm guessing it's for critters or something?). So is it possible to add (yet another) exception to check if target is dead? If not, how about some sort of check for targets health? Exception like if target has <2% hp could do the trick.

And for ScytheZ, try to delete MSBT's saved variables... that trick has worked for me few times (On other addons tho... Worth a shot anyway I think).

2.4.3. and US version

yes i did but now i dont. ill enable it see what it shows

p.s. i found this while looking through wow's files in logs (framexml.log)


1/6 00:11:56.710 Loading add-on MikScrollingBattleText
1/6 00:11:56.710 ** Loading table of contents Interface\AddOns\MikScrollingBattleText\MikScrollingBattleText.toc
1/6 00:11:56.710 ...rface\AddOns\MikScrollingBattleText\MSBTProfiles.lua:951: attempt to concatenate local 'SPELL_BLOODSURGE' (a nil value)
1/6 00:11:56.710 ...face\AddOns\MikScrollingBattleText\MSBTCooldowns.lua:292: table index is nil
1/6 00:11:56.710 Interface\AddOns\MikScrollingBattleText\MSBTMain.lua:1439: table index is nil



p.s.2 the same error appears when lua errror reporting service is enabled. The error with Bloodsurge so it's a pre 3.0 patch problem? should i get an older version if so ..from where?

Interesting. Everything appears to be in order as far as installation is concerned. What version of WoW (patch, language) are you running?

Also, do you have lua errors enabled (Interface->Help)?

Image 1. addons folder
Image 2. Ingame Char selection Screen
Image 3. To no avail, although i typed all the /msbt and all the various combos i could find

the real funny thing is that i tried also the SCT mod and SCTD and they do EXACTLY the same. Other mods work at least have the decency to give some errors..

ScytheZ:

From what you describe, it sounds like perhaps the options module is installed, but not the core module.

First, verify that the following two folders exist in your addons directory:

<WoW Folder>\Interface\AddOns\MikScrollingBattleText
<WoW Folder>\Interface\AddOns\MSBTOptions

Next, on your character selection screen, click the "AddOns" button and ensure that both MikScrollingBattleText and MSBTOptions are enabled.


skullripperdelux:

Make sure the sound files you've added the MikScrollingBattleText\Sounds folder are there before you start WoW or will not use them. Second, when you enter the name of the file, make sure you include the extension. In the example you provided, you should enter "maiden.mp3" without the quotes.


Enkidu:

The intent is not to prevent it from showing when an enemy casts a chanelled AoE spell on you, rather it is to stop the spam created when you cast a chanelled AoE spell. For example, when you, as a mage, cast Blizzard, you gain a buff of the same name followed by that buff fading once the channel is done. This behavior is rather odd and what is being filtered.

That said, upon reviewing the code, I can see how the current method would end up filtering debuff gains and losses by those specific abilities when an enemy casts them on you. I will update it to only affect those which you cast as intended.


Buio/blankStare:

Thank you for your posts.

Channeled AoE buffs/debuffs.

Hello Mikord, thanks a lot for the update.

About the channeled AoE suppression changes, is there any way to disable this new feature? Some (like me) might find it preferable to know in text that we're not under that RoF/Blizzard even though it seems to be very close, etc.

Edit: I found the toggle in MSBTMain.lua line 1454, thanks again!

it seems i have a little bit of an issue:

i installed MSBT twice, once through Curse and once through Interface (after deleting it manually). and although i see and enable it (also the options one) in char selection window. when im in the game i cant see any SCT and even more when i type any related msbt command all i get is the default type help for command messages or smth like that.

Any ideea where i went in the wrong direction or forgot to install smth else?

Hello everyone,

I apologize for the delayed response. I've been preoccupied with the holidays and such. I've just released v5.3.33 that addresses many of the reports over the last couple of weeks such as the DK cooldown interaction with runes. I've also put in some logic to help reduce some of the spam that is created from strange behavior on the part of Blizzard's combat log such as reporting buff gains and losses on channeled AoE skills. The change log contains more information on what was changed.

Anyways, on to your questions.


Davidoff:

The picture you've linked is the default behavior for MSBT. If you are using a non-English version of WoW, the particular font shown will likely not be the default because it does not have glyphs for all languages such as Russian, Chinese, etc. The colors should be the same however. If you don't like the default font, you can add your own by following the FAQ entries in the readme.html file included with the mod.


Taybard:

That would be an aura application. You can use Fingers of Frost as an example if you like. The only differences would be setting the class to apply to your priest (as opposed to mage) and setting the skill name to Surge of Light.

Aura Application
Recipient Unit Affiliation - Is Equal To - You
Skill Name - Is Equal To - Surge or Light


Elite_Gamer04:

There is no internal distinction between buffs type aside from them being buffs or debuffs, and as a result the only way you can filter them is one at a time.


DK2499/Arkive:

I've made some tweaks to the latest version (5.3.33) to try and help the situation, but I suspect it's a combination of the upgraded spell effects eating most of the available cycles which is causing the additional merging to be starved for resources. I've heard several people that don't even use MSBT complain of frame rate lag on DK effects like Death and Decay and Path of Frost. I hope the changes I made have a positive impact.


flyg:

A disease is an aura like any other (technically a debuff, but MSBT allows you to refer to them generically as auras, and then if you want to, you can set a condition to specifically filter debuffs). Remember that a trigger is based off of combat log events, so you can't just randomly check if a series of auras exist on a target.


wazooda:

It looks like you have a corrupt profile. Try resetting it with /msbt reset.


Oakayam:

I've added an in combat exception to v5.3.33.


Minou:

You should be able to set a sound for Events->Outgoing Player->Skill DoTs, but that would be for every dot and I imagine would be incredibly irritating. Alternatively, you could create a trigger that looks specifically for damage done by you that was caused by a given skill (such as drain life) and assign a sound effect to that.


skullripperdelux:

I'm not exactly sure what your question is about the mp3 files, but I'll take a guess. Yes, it can play mp3 files when some given event happens, but there isn't a mechanism to specify how long it should play. That is determined by the length of the sound file itself.

As far as bloodsurge, make sure your using the latest version of MSBT. I just checked and Bloodsurge is a default trigger.


Mongul:

The font settings are all set to inherit by default. There are master font settings, scroll area font settings, and per event font settings for both crit and non-crit events. Typically you just change the master font settings, and everything else will inherit them, but if you've modified any of the scroll area or per event font settings they would be overriding them.

I don't know of any conflicts with other mods in that area, but I would suggest getting the latest version of MSBT (v5.3.33) and if that doesn't work, try restting your profile.
