Skada Damage Meter
Skada Damage Meter
Skada is a modular damage meter for World of Warcraft with various viewing modes, segmented fights, and customizable windows. It is designed for efficiency with minimal memory and CPU impact.
"Skada" is Swedish for "Damage".
Midnight Edition (WoW 12.0+)
This version of Skada is updated for World of Warcraft: Midnight and uses Blizzard's new session-based combat systems.
Features
- Midnight Optimized: Uses Blizzard's internal session data for performance and accuracy.
- Combat Reliability: Handles modern combat data restrictions for a stable experience.
- Updated UI: Includes new presets with smooth animations, gradients, and textures.
- Dynamic Elements: Alternating row colors, highlight overlays, spark effects, and icon scaling.
- LDB Integration: Compatible with Data Broker displays such as Titan Panel, ChocolateBar, and ElvUI.
- Extensible Architecture: The API allows developers to create additional plugins.
Usage
Getting Started
A default window is created upon first load. Access the configuration menu by clicking the cog icon on the window title bar or via the minimap button. Select Configure to access settings.
Multiple Windows
Skada supports multiple windows. Create new ones under the Windows section of the configuration panel. Windows can be:
- Bar: The standard customizable meter.
- Inline: A horizontal line for custom UI setups.
- Data Text: For LDB displays and minimal setups.
Navigation
- Left-Click: View more detailed information.
- Right-Click: Return to the previous view.
- Mousewheel: Scroll through lists.
- Tooltips: Hover over bars to see additional context and shortcut keys (e.g., Shift-click for targets).
Themes
Manage window designs with the built-in Theme Engine. You can import and export themes by using theme strings.
Versions
- Midnight (Default): For WoW 12.0+ using the Native API.
- Classic Version: The version for older WoW releases.

Posted Mar 6, 2012I'm not sure if I had miss it, but if I didn't it would be nice to have an option supressing the question if I would like to Reset Skada, when I enter a new Dungeon or group for example. My poit is to have the option to make the reset automatic without any need of confirmation.
Skada really rules.
Thanks for the addon.

Posted Feb 28, 2012Is it possible to make Skada show in combat and hide out of combat? Changed from recount to skada since recount wouldnt do it. Hopefully this can but i cant seem to get it to do that :(

Posted Feb 13, 2012I am currently having problems with it not merging my pets stats with my own. Weather the box is or isn't checked.
edit: i have disabled all my addons excluding skada and its still showing me and my pet as two sources of damage on the meter. With and without the 'merge pets' option.
edit 2: i use curse client to install my addons and i have skada 'perfered release type set to alpha' if that helps any.

Posted Jan 29, 2012Frst time user of Skada. Trying it in a LFR and after Spine wanted to see the Ultraxion DPS when came upon this error. Am guessing its due to players leaving and new ones joining.

Posted Jan 25, 2012Thank you!
you can change under the following content?
Menus.lua
target = { "Whisper Target", "whisper"},->target = { L["Whisper Target"], "whisper"},
whisperbox:SetLabel("Whisper Target")-> whisperbox:SetLabel(L["Whisper Target"])
Add language file
L["Whisper Target"] = "密è¯ç›®æ ‡"

Sorry about that, looks like I missed the case of saved healing spells. Try r378.

Are you still seeing this? I thought my commit 3 days ago would have fixed it.

Posted Jan 15, 2012Hi, is it possible, that i can change the option, so that i see in "dps at the moment" to see only the max DPS. That means i can change it so that i see only the highest DPS. My problem is i can't an won't see every timme to skada. Only after the fight i see to skada, but as firemage my dps is falling and get lower and i see no time, whats my highest dps. Ok i can show "dps for all" but thats not what i want. I need to see my highest dps at every fight.
Thanks
