Posted Feb 13, 2010I'm thinking something like the old-school rogue energy-tick bar if you remember those.

Posted Feb 12, 2010Sorry, I wasn't clear: Chat bubbles don't have the player's name.

Posted Feb 12, 2010@Niightblade, The game itself says who is making the say, why would you need that information twice in the same line?

Posted Feb 12, 2010It would be great if the /say code said the player's name instead of "me".

Posted Feb 12, 2010Hey I noticed DBM has a timer for the delay until Necrotic Plague is cast (for 25m atleast) which seems to be reasonably accurate and pretty useful. So I went through the world of logs for my guild's attempts and copied the (hopefully) relevant data that you'd need to make a timer. It seems like the cooldown is 30 seconds but it's occasionally delayed by Infest cast.
Data is here: http://pastey.net/132923
It includes time Ice Lock applies to Highlord Tirion Fordring, first Hostile action against The Lich King, or by The Lich King, and each" The Lich King casts Necrotic Plague on X"
It should be noted that this was logged by an Australian and there may be a larger than usual variance in latency which might make some things look shorter or longer than they are.

Posted Feb 12, 2010Also, I use the manual timers (such as break and pull timers) in DBM frequently in my raids, does DXE have something similar? I may have to run both concurrently for the few DBM features DXE is missing.
Overall at the moment DXE looks superior for non-lead raiders to use (Arrows toward malleable goo targets on Putricide? Hell yes!), but DBM has certain raid LEADER benefits DXE seems to be lacking (unless I'm missing it). I have several people in my raids with terrible PC's that can't run their own boss mods without lagging out of fights, so I have to call stuff out myself. :/

Posted Feb 12, 2010Can the Defile chat announce be changed to occur when the Lich King begins his cast (the same time marks go out) rather than when the victim actually has the debuff applied to them (two seconds later)? That would be helpful in getting people to move a bit quicker.

Posted Feb 12, 2010@oray We already have the code in to support marking and identifying on the bar the person that gets the plague from the Lich King. Kollektiv was talking about the plague's that are passed. There is no combat log event for that. If what we have isn't working now I'm not sure why, when I did Lich King last week it was most certainly working.

we get a disease named as Necrotic Plague. it should be in combat log for sure at least for the first guy. I checked some our combat logs with worldoflogs, and there are logs like;
[23:08:13.041] The Lich King casts Necrotic Plague on XXXXX
and there should be combat log version of this. Unfornunately, if someone dispelled earlier, the next person who gets Necrotic Plague cannot be seen in combat log but on the character debuffs.
At least, if we can find out who gets the first Necrotic Plague from the Lich king will help a lot with a marking ability.

Posted Feb 11, 2010Kollektiv: /script DXE.RDB = {} followed by reloadui did not work for us. Any ideas? (To give you the full story, I edited the LK plugin and randomly chose v42 for my edited version. I pushed out to the raid, but now we can't switch to your latest without editing the DVE.lua. To make matters worse, some of the slower raid members with my version keep pushing it out, reseting everyone else with auto-accept so we do this dance every night now.)

Posted Feb 11, 2010@oray,melfus: It's hard to detect Necrotic Plague because there's no combat log event for it. I'll use the chat message to detect it.
@diiv: Yes, I'll add it to the TODO list. If you'd like to change it yourself you can open up Alerts/Alerts.lua and change the variable 'local FADETIME' on line 83
@ZubrDP: /script DXE.RDB = {} and then a /console reloadui
@Alexander234: Chat messages were probably only translated in English, so the encounter would not trigger for non-English clients. It should be fixed now.

Posted Feb 11, 2010I've pushed a new fix to v442-34. I misspelled a repository substitution which ended up commenting out code that broke the addon.
