Maleante project description

Maleante is NOT a stand-alone addon. It is the Spanish-language player piece of a custom quest, which is part of a federally funded research project being conducted by a team of academic researchers from Colorado State University, the University at Albany-SUNY, and Concordia University. It is only fully functional when used as part of the SCRIBE study in a group with the researcher. If you are not planning to take part in the study, please do not use this add on. If you want to participate, sign up at http:www.scribes.colostate.edu/espanol.html

The game portion of the add on generates quest windows, overhead text, sound, quest logic (e.g., is everyone standing in the right place to solve the puzzle?), and images that are used to play the custom-built quest in WoW. The recording portion of the add on sends local, party, and whispered chat - but NOT Real ID chat - to a designated researcher who is the party leader. It also sends location much like the add on Quest Helper, and records combat, jumps, and emotes. It registers and sends class, race, gender, and stats. It sends these things to a designated researcher *only* when players are in a party with the researcher, and recording requires a manual start by the researcher that only works when players are in that party with him. Even if others download the add on, they cannot play the custom quest, nor can they record anything themselves using this add on.

The way we save the chat and location data is by sending messages to the researcher's toon while players are still in game. The add on doesn't send or do anything at all remotely. Once players leave the study session party, no data are recorded or sent anywhere. Unlike add ons such as Auctioneer, our add on does NOT combine or apply the data recorded with data from other sessions.

Maleante doesn't record anything else that goes on in players' computers, and once they leave the party, it stops doing anything. It will *not* capture anything before they join the party, nor will it capture anything they do outside the party or outside WoW, even during sessions. Add ons are unable to access logins, passwords, or any other personal information.

The add on follows Blizzard's guidelines for add ons, their EULA, and ToS very carefully. This is federally funded research being conducted by academic researchers, and we have rigorous review processes to protect participant privacy and rights.

The project seeks to understand how people act and interact in the World of Warcraft. To do that, we need to record the chat and movement of ONLY those players who sign up and formally consent to participate in the study. The data we collect will be used to analyze patterns in how people chat and move when playing during their session. No names will be used in analysis, and participation is anonymous. No profit, donations, or payments are requested or accepted by the researchers for player use of this add on.

This project has been approved by the University at Albany Institutional Review Board, Colorado State University’s Institutional Review Board, and the Air Force Research Lab Institutional Review Board for ethical research with human subjects. Approval of this project signifies that the procedures adequately protect the rights and welfare of the participants.

RaidBuffStatus

no-reply@wowace.com () — Wed, 16 May 2012 20:34:51 +0000

Reports on a configurable dashboard or to /raid or /party on consumables, buffs, AFK, mana, aura, talent spec and many many others but in an intelligent automagic way. RBS is the last nail in the coffin of all slacking level 85 raiders. RBS also provides unique tank taunting warnings not provided by any other addon.

RaidBuffStatus is for 5 man instances and raids of all sizes.

RaidBuffStatus is dedicated to my new daughter, Jaina.

About

"RaidBuffStatus is the last nail in the coffin of slacking raiders." - Stormsnow, a Raid Leader

RaidBuffStatus is an addon to check, show and report on the complete buff status (including flasks etc) of a party or raid. It shows the information on a dashboard much like XRS. It can report via whispers and to raid chat. In addition it provides a talent spec window which also shows any special abilities such as improved spirit.

However it is quite unlike XRS, Bigbrother and most other buff checking addons. It was the first released (8th March 2008) addon to intelligently, in an automagic way, know what buffs to check for. For example only if there is a Mage will it check for intellect buff and it does not check the buffs of those not in the same zone. As much as possible is automatic.

Addons like XRS require lots of initial configuration. RBS works with no configuration out of the box. However RBS now features a Buff Wizard to help new user non-raid leaders to configure only the buffs they need to be displayed.

RBS can do the buffing for you such as your self and party buffs with a quick right-click.

RBS supports addons like Titan using LibDataBroker.

Tank warnings

This feature warns you about people taunting your target. It has different warnings according to who taunts; taunts, ninja taunts (someone taunting your target you are tanking), your taunt fails, other people's taunt fails and when a non-tank taunts your target. Ninja taunts are when the mob is targeting you which, in theory, means you are tanking it. It might be changed to take into account threat but so far it seems reliable without that.

The most interesting feature is that it can even tell you about mobs being taunted off you which you are not even targeting.

How to use it

When you join a party or raid the dashboard main window will open. (Alternatively click on the mini-map icon to toggle the dashboard open and closed). It will automatically know what to check for. If you want to disable a check then click the icon representing that spell. Click again to re-enable. RBS does not know if you want to check for Shadow Protection so that one single button you will have to disable or re-enable as needed.

To report to raid or party click Trash or Boss. You need to be in a party or in a raid and be the leader or assistant to do this. Trash assumes all buffs except elixirs and soul stone. Boss assumes all buffs. To report only on one buff, Shift-Click on the icon for that buff. To send a whisper to someone missing a buff, Control-Click on the icon for that buff.

It is as simple as that.

To initiate a ready check click R button.

To view the spec information on people in the raid click the top left menu button. This window can be sorted by any of the columns by clicking on the buttons above the column itself. The spec is gathered as soon as a person is within inspection range and cached for the duration of the raid. Considering you will have to gather up at the start or outside before you begin it is highly likely to have all the info when you need it.

In the top right there is a menu button which opens an options window. In that window you can do things like configure which buffs to check and when and so on.

Raiders in groups 6, 7 and 8 are ignored for buff checking as these groups are often used for substitutes. This is configurable.

Dual Spec

RBS copes with Dual Spec by re-reading talent specs any time they change it. You need take no action when someone changes spec as it is completely automatic.

Tank List

RBS tries to automatically spot who the tanks are. It does this in two steps. First it looks at the tank list. (Every raid uses a tank list right?) It can use many tank list systems in common use including anything compatible with the Blizzard tank list, oRA2, ctra, or xperl. Then it looks at the talents and class of the players on the list to check they could tank. It will ignore players who are not tanks (eg Priests) that are only being used for following DPS or other scenarios.

WIM (WoW Instant Messenger) v3

no-reply@wowace.com () — Mon, 14 May 2012 19:01:38 +0000

WIM (WoW Instant Messenger) is a World of Warcraft addon which brings an instant messenger feel to communication in game.

I created WIM over 2 years ago with the curiosity of creating an addon. Since then, WIM has evolved into what it is today, however so many requests from the community were added into the addon which resulted in bulky and inefficient coding practices that took a toll on both CPU and Memory usage. To resolve this, I decided to rewrite WIM from scratch. Each feature is being reintroduced one at a time and being advanced upon. That being said, I welcome you to WIM 3.0.

Features

Whispers in their own windows.
Chat in their own windows.
Tabbed windows
- Highly configurable.
History
- Copy and paste as:
  - Raw Text
  - BBCode
Advanced, intellectual window behaviors & animations.
Skins
Emoticons
Clickable web URLS for easy viewing. No more retyping a long url a friend sends you.
Customizable sound options.
Expose - great way to clear your screen of windows when you are in combat.
Addon Compatibility: (Always make sure you are running the latest versions.
- Prat
- DBM

AllPlayed

no-reply@wowace.com () — Mon, 14 May 2012 00:52:30 +0000

Description

AllPlayed display the total time played, rested XP and money for each of your WoW characters. It's just a snapshot of the current state, no history, no stats. You can look at the total time you have played WoW and be proud (or afraid ;-)).

Acknowledgement

AllPlayed is an Ace2 (now Ace3) re-write of an addon created by Riboflavin and latter updated to Titan AllPlayed. I didn't use any of the code from the original addons but I tried to emulate their outputs as mush as I could. I really missed Titan AllPlayed after I start using FuBar and since the originals appear to no longer be supported, I rolled up my sleeves and did something about it.

Special thanks to Riboflavin for creating Titan_AllPlayed that inspired this addon. Thanks to next96 for the koKR, kuja and AndusBeef1 for deDE, RoyalHawk, Mars1491 and wowuicn for zhCN, s8095324 for zhTW and Orbital Digital, oXid_FoX and Beltza for frFR localizations.

Disclaimer

This is my first addon. I hold no responsibility if something breaks, smokes start coming off you computer or if there is a flood in your village. I'm also not responsible if your brain turn into oatmeal after looking at my code but comments are welcome.

GridConfigurableLayouts

no-reply@wowace.com () — Sun, 13 May 2012 23:39:50 +0000

1 A highly configurable in-game layout creation tool for Grid.
1. 1.1 Main Features:
2. 1.2 Limitations:

A highly configurable in-game layout creation tool for Grid.

Main Features:

Group filters which allow you to create groups by Role (Tank, Melee, Healer, Ranged), Raid Group, Name Lists, Out of Zone and/or Offline, and Guild, as well as a catch-all filter (Everyone). You can allow repetitions, or have players appear only in the first group for which they match the filter.
Sorting within groups by Name, Raid Index, Class, or Role. You can also choose to have yourself appear at the beginning or your group, or even to manually specify names that you wish to appear first if present.
Pet group class filters that allow you to see pets only for the classes you want.
Colored group borders that tell you what type of group you are looking at (the colors can be customized).
Layouts you create are saved and can be assigned within the GridLayout options to be the default for whichever party type you want (e.g. solo, group, raid10, raid25).
Roles are determined using both player talent spec and also Blizzard role information. You may choose to give priority to Blizzard information, in which case talents are only used to disambiguate for classes that have both a melee and a ranged damage spec (i.e. shamans and druids).
Quickly change layouts by left clicking the Grid icon on the minimap. This feature is off by default. A checkbox to turn on this option appears next to the option to enable the minimap icon in the Grid configuration UI.

Limitations:

When using role filters, a default role based on class will be assigned until the module can inspect the unit or Blizzard role data becomes available.
Zone information is not available in 5-man parties, so the out-of-zone filter will not be used.
The flexibility comes at a cost: group composition cannot be updated in combat. Generally speaking, all that this means is that you may not want to use this module in Battlegrounds, where raid composition could change in combat and you could have brief periods where you are missing newly added players. In PvE you would have to try really hard to make this an issue.

Healers have to die

no-reply@wowace.com () — Sun, 13 May 2012 22:03:02 +0000

Healers Have To Die

Spot those bloody healers instantly and help them accomplish their destiny! (PVP and PVE)

HHTD adds a red cross over enemy healer's name plates. You can't miss them! (see the screen-shot).

HHTD also adds a healer role symbol abovefriendly healers' name plates. Stop the slaughter!!

IMPORTANT NOTE: You have to enable name-plates, else you won't see the healer symbols!

It also rings when you hover or target a hostile unit who healed
someone else during the last 60 seconds (can be configured).

HHTD is PVP and PVE compatible.

Remember to check out available options (/HHTDG)

Special commands

/HHTDP (or /hhtdp) : Post healers name to the raid channel for all to see. (You need to configure the messages in the announce module options first).

You can bind this command to a key (WoW key-bindings interface)

Videos

Here is a video by Hybridpanda featuring HHTD in the Eye of the Storm battleground:

YouTube - This makes me a sad Panda

Articles

Here are two excellent articles about HHTD by Cynwise (A must read if you have some doubts about the fairness of this add-on!) :

Healers Have To Die and the PvP Addons Arms Race

Using Healers Have To Die to Protect Friendly Healers

Another one by Gevlon:
http://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/2011/05/healers-have-to-die.html

How it works

HHTD uses the combat log events to detect friendly and enemy healers.
By default, HHTD will detect specialized healers spells only (for PvP).

Another option lets you choose a specified amount of healing enemies have to
reach before being marked as healers. (this is the setting used for PvE)

By default HHTD uses both methods, specialised healers' spells detection AND a minimum cumulative healing to reach by the aforementioned spells.

Self-Heals and pets are filtered out.

Planned features

Detection when a friendly healer is being attacked and alert others through /yell or /say (I would like to make it work for nearby healers only)

Debates

An 'interesting' debate about this add-on is also happening on Blizzard's official forum:

Break the HHTD mod already. (UI and Macro forum) (full),
Healers Have To Die, part I (UI and Macro forum) (full),
Healers Have to Die, part III (General discussion) (full),

Sadly, as a European I cannot participate but I'm reading those threads with great interest.

The funniest part about all those 26 pages discussions is that only about 16,000 people were actually using HHTD at the time (from the Curse Client popularity statistics)... Now over 80,000 players have it installed!

In those discussions it's also rarely noted that HHTD is also very helpful to protect healers on your side.
This debate is leading nowhere though... I won't post any additional links to those endless threads.

type /hhtdg to open the configuration interface, or /hhtd for command-line access

Blood Shield Tracker

no-reply@wowace.com () — Sun, 13 May 2012 05:37:08 +0000

Overview

Blood Shield Tracker is an addon to track the value of the Death Knight Blood Shield. It can show bars for the following items:

The current Blood Shield value (when Blood Shield is up).
The estimated heal of a Death Strike or the Blood Shield value based on damage taken in the last five seconds.
The current Power Word:Shield value on the player.
The total value of all Illuminated Healing shields on the player.
The current and maximum health of the player.

Blood Shield Bar

Appears when Blood Shield is up and shows the current shield value.
Updates the current value of the Blood Shield. It provides both an absolute value and a percent of the remaining shield value. With stacking Blood Shields, the maximum and percent values are less useful but it might be interesting for some people so I left that option. The current value is key thing to use.
Disappears when the Blood Shield buff ends.

Estimate Bar

Predicts the size of the Death Strike heal or Blood Shield based on the damage in the last five seconds. Because that calculation occurs on Blizzard's servers, there are timing issues and the amount could be wrong compared to the actual value received.
The bar will fill based on how close you are to getting the minimum Death Strike heal or Blood Shield value.
The bar changes from red to green if you will get more than the minimum Death Strike heal or Blood Shield value (i.e., an optimal heal or shield value).
The user can configure if this bar predicts the Death Strike heal or Blood Shield value.

Power Word: Shield Bar

Shows the current value of the Power Word: Shield on you. It is shown when a shield is on you and hidden when no PW:S is on you.
By default this bar includes the Divine Aegis shield too. You can disable that in the options if you wish though.
It is fully configurable just like the other bars.

Illuminated Healing Bar

Shows the current value of all Illuminated Healing shields on you. it is shown when an Illuminated Healing shield is on you and hidden when no shield is on you.
It is fully configurable just like the other bars.

Total Absorbs Bar

Shows the total of various absorbs on you. It includes the following absorb types and you can configure which ones you want included:
- Blood Shield
- Power Word: Shield
- Divine Aegis
- Illuminated Healing
- Indomitable Pride
It is fully configurable just like the other bars.

Health Bar

Provides a health bar to make monitoring your health easier. Based on your UI setup, you may find this very useful to keep near the other Blood Shield Tracker bars and your rune addon of choice.
It is off by default and needs to be enabled first.
It is fully configurable and has an option to change color based on a user-set threshold.

LDB / Minimap Data

The LDB or minimap icon provides a tooltip with some statistics for your Blood Shields. The following statistics are provided for the session and for the last fight:

The total number of blood shields.
The number of shields refreshed. This is the number that are re-applied before the previous shield was removed (i.e., stacking).
The number of removed shields.
The minimum, maximum, and average shields maximum/starting values. The maximum value is the full, initial value of the shield.
The total amount absorbed by the shields, the total value of all shields, and percent of the shields used. This lets you see how much of the shields were used to absorb damage.

In addition, for the last fight it provides:

The duration of the fight.
The average number of seconds between Blood Shields (or successful Death Strikes).

The LDB can be configured to use a shorter label and can also set a data feed to display values such as the last Death Strike, last Blood Shield, and the Estimate Bar value.

Options

Blood Shield Tracker provides several configuration options. It also supports LibSharedMedia so fonts and textures loaded there can also be used. It also provides full support for profiles.

You can change the following:

If the minimap button is shown. The addon also provides an LDB data feed.
Whether a bar is shown.
If a bar is locked and cannot be moved.
The width, height, and scale of the bars
The font, font size, and font options of the text on the bars
Whether the background/bar is shown or just the text.
The color of each bar and bar text, including setting the minimum and optimal heal colors.
The texture to use for each bar.
Whether a bar has a Blizzard-style border around it.
The format of the text on a bar.

Skinning

Blood Shield Tracker provides support for skinning. In particular, it will match the look and feel of ElvUI and Tukui. There are settings in the configuration to control it selectively. By default, it will override the textures, font, and borders of the bars to match the UI. The user will just need to position the bars to where he or she would like them. If you do change the Skinning settings, you will need to reload the UI since the changes are only made when the addon loads.

If you need to access the configuration but cannot find it, you can always type /bst in a chat window.

Enhancements and Bugs

You can use the Ticket Tracker at Wowace to report bugs or request enhancements: http://www.wowace.com/addons/blood-shield-tracker/tickets/

Please leave detailed information on the problem or request.

Issue in 4.2

There was a change in 4.2 with combat log events that causes the Blood Shield Tracker to no longer account for absorbs to the blood shield. I'm releasing 0.11 which will, by default, use another method of tracking the blood shield value. This method should work for now until Blizzard responds to this issue. The change wasn't announced so it may just be a bug. If you are using 0.11 and want to revert to the old method you would need to go into the options and un-check the new "Use Aura" option. Until it is fixed though, the Blood Shield will not have the correct value if that isn't checked. It will only show the maximum value and not the current value of the shield.

UPDATE: It is now 4.3 and this hasn't changed. This addon will continue to use the aura for updates until they change it. If they never change it, then it will always rely on the aura.

Skada Damage Meter

no-reply@wowace.com () — Sun, 13 May 2012 02:59:05 +0000

Skada is a modular damage meter with various viewing modes. It is inspired mainly by Assessment, but also by Recount.

Skada sports segmented fights and detailed views, while being highly efficient with memory. This is accomplished by aggregating data on fight segments.

Skada is entirely modular; the modes listed below are all separate addons. Only the modes you load adds to the memory and CPU cycles used.

Features:

Automatic mode switching when entering combat. For example, you can have Threat mode be shown in combat. Skada can switch back after combat ends.
Specific fight segments can be kept indefinately.
Multiple windows. Each window can be configured fully.
Threat mode can warn on high threat.
Modes: Damage done, DPS, Threat, Enemy damage done, Enemy damage taken, Healing, Overhealing, Total healing, Absorbs estimated, Damage taken, Dispels, Mana regen, Debuff uptimes, and more.
Reports can be done everywhere. For example, you can report a certain player's Debuff uptimes.
Summary information for most modes (DPS, HPS, Fails, etc) in a LDB view/minimap button.
LDB data feed can show personal/raid DPS or personal threat.
Support for SharedMedia and Class Colors.

Skada is very easy to extend, and there are many addons out there that add functionality, such as Skada Graphs, SkadaEnsidiaFails, Skada Window Buttons, Skada_FriendlyFire, SkadaHealAbsorbs. There is a page with API information here.

Usage:

Navigation in Skada is done by "drilling down" to the information you want. You go to a lower level, showing more detailed information, by clicking on it, and you go to a higher level by right-clicking.

The top level is the list of all saved fight segments. The second level is the list of all available data modes, such as Damage Done. The third level is one of these modes. Most modes let you drill down for further details. Some modes have several detailed views. In this case you choose alternate views by holding certain keys pressed while clicking. For example, in Damage mode, you can Shift-click a player to see what enemies the player caused damage to. Tooltips will display how to reach the different views.

You can also use window buttons for selecting fight segment and mode directly.

Scrolling in Skada is done with the mousewheel.

New Skada windows can be created from the configuration screen. Each window can be separately configured. A popular feature is "Mode switching", which lets Skada automatically switch to a specific mode on entering combat.

There is a forum thread for discussion on Skada. All suggestions and bug reports are very welcome.

"Skada" is Swedish for "Damage".
