Dysthymia: I found the issue. I'll upload the fixed 4.11 version later tonight. Thanks for the heads up.

Tomed: Yes, but that shouldn't be necessary in version 4.1 which I just posted. I redid the trigger system to eliminate the need for specifying lua search patterns and event types for the most common types. Under the new version you can simply set a main condition type of "Self Buff Gain" and the parameter would be "Focus". C...

Encholol: Currently only gains that show up in the combat log are displayed. I have plans to add a setting for power gains which are not shown in the combat log, but I haven't quite decided how I want to implement it yet. When you get into raids and have Vampiric Touch, Trinket Procs, Blessing of Wisdom, Judgement of Wisdom, Nat...

Mfong: Cool. Glad you figured it out. Also, in the next version there will be a specific event for interrupts by default, so that trigger will no longer be necessary. Farook: Thanks for the update! I received it and will incorporate it into the next version when I get it ready for release.

Posted By: Mikord
Fiorina: No, MSBT only currently has scrolling animation styles. However, I do believe that Witchhunt can display it in the style you are talking about using its own frame. Mfong: Yes. There is also a Riposte trigger by default to do just that.

AlbionDiaz: Yes. /msbt to bring up the interface. Click on the Events tab. Select Outgoing from the dropdown for outgoing events. Scroll down and find all of the Pet x events. Vodrin: Ok, I'll add that.

Jq-Amp: Not currently, but one of the things I have planned for "spam controls" is to be able to replace ability spell names, with your choice. That would cover what you want to do. I have a pretty large todo list though so I can't give you any specific time frame to expect it.

Posted By: Mikord
Vampirufo: Check the first trigger search pattern in my response to gngsk. The pattern should only match the first application. Mutilate gets merged because the 2 hits happen at the same time. Merged events can't be crits so there isn't currently any way to do that. I plan to offer more control over the "spam control" behavi...

Posted By: Mikord
Kwurc: I'll probably make the trailer text customizable in the near term so it can be changed / disabled. It's not impossible to separate the hits, but any control over that won't likely make it in for a while. Vampirufo: The damage that WoW displays above the enemy's head (game damage) can't be altered by mods outside of...

Just a quick note to let everyone know that MSBT 4.1 development is under way. One major change is that I plan to revamp the trigger system to both be more flexible and to accommodate for some of the new skills introduced that don't really work well within the current framework. I'm also looking to clean up some of the things that...

Posted By: Mikord
Kwurc: No you can't separate the hits. They are merged into one event with the total amount of damage done and a trailer containing how many hits/crits there were. Iceroth: Thanks for the heads up. I found the problem and will have it fixed in the next release. Karsus: The only way to get the damage above the enemy's...

Posted By: Mikord
Shzin: If you look down a couple of posts there is an example of how to make the trigger for dazed mobs. The only difference would be to change the Concussive Barrage to the poison name. Dulcea: I'll look into that message. Screech doesn't show up because all "outgoing" debuffs are not displayed since Blizzard doesn't spe...

Posted By: Mikord
Shania: To my understanding, Feign death resist messages are currently bugged and not showing up in the combat log. I believe that Blizzard has said it will be fixed in the next version. Until that point a trigger won't work since there is no message to search for. As far as when mobs are dazed, I'm not positive since I haven...

Posted By: Mikord
Fxxk: I was holding off on putting the update until I made a couple of other tweaks. I just got done updating it. Also, so you know you can check the "Load out of date AddOns" check box and it will usually continue to work if Blizzard didn't change anything major.

Posted By: Mikord
Jaim: Shaman totems are considered as pets by Blizzard. The Pet prefix is simply MSBT's default output message format for pet events. Because every output message for every event can be customized, there is a default message for each event type. This can be changed by modifying the format for the pet events under the Events tab...

Posted By: Mikord
x24702: As far as Windfury, that's a result of how Blizzard reports the damage for it. The combat log actually puts 4 messages when Windfury happens. One for each swing and an extra attack message: "Your Windfury Attack hits mob for 341." "Your Windfury Attack hits mob for 342." "Your Windfury Attack hits mob for 341." "...

Posted By: Mikord
Taroven: I understand what you mean now. Unfortunately, there is a range limitation on whether or not you receive combat events from other players in your party/raid. This means when someone is far enough away from you, your client doesn't receive the data about what's happening to them, and hence there would be no way to parse...

Posted By: Mikord
Maldai: I didn't add those events as selections since spell alert type of mods (like WitchHunt) handle those events and can output the information using any of MSBT's scroll areas. If WitchHunt doesn't do what you want and you really want to add them, send me a PM on here and I'll tell you how to modify the code real quick to m...

Hiznor: I've played with MSBT on a mage quite a bit and I've never noticed it doing that. I'll comb through the code and see if I spot anything that might be causing it, but I haven't heard the problem from anyone else either. Taroven: I'm pleased to hear you found some usefulness to the non stance based triggers. If you'r...

Posted By: Mikord
Taroven: There isn't a way to specify a stance for now. I didn't want them to only work while only in a specific stance by default because many people want to see when they can overpower, for example, to know to switch stances. I can probably get an option for that added in a future version though so the user can choose which wa...

Jaim: Correct. MSBT doesn't currently do spell alerting, but if you look down about 3 posts there is a link to WitchHunt which can output through MSBT.

Maldai: Check out a mod called WitchHunt on wowace.com (http://www.wowace.com/wiki/WitchHunt). It does spell alerting and can output through MSBT. I'm pretty sure monster emotes is one of the things it will alert. You'll most likely want to configure it though because it will output a lot of information by default. Ariose:...

Posted By: Mikord
Skator: Mana gains from life tap should already be showing up if you have the "Power Gains" event enabled under the Notifications event category (enabled by default). Good catch on Dark Pact not showing up though. I'll get that fixed. I'm pretty sure with Mana Spring/Tide though, there is no associated combat log event for...
