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 20, 2009Has completely replaced Recount and Omen on my Rogue.
On my hunter, though, I still end up using Recount because it shows a DPS bar for my pet.
Is there any way this could be added to Skada?
thanks for the awesome addon.

Posted Mar 19, 2009My concerns: most of the time it shows more DPS done say over recount, its close many times, other times it could be off 200dps more. Its always more as well, its never shows less dps than recount.

Posted Mar 19, 2009Also, please bring back command line reporting, so much easier to whisper someone /skada report [Name] then dig around the menus.

Posted Mar 17, 2009Return command line report options please.
(Like /skada report raid)
It's takes a much time to go a lot of sub menu's and check a lot of things.
Or make clickable text [Skada] to title, which will popup report window, where you can check anything without travel to submenu's (like Report window in Recount)
And little question, it's okay when I reset a big data after Naxx, Skada still takes 2.50mb of memory? Just wondering.
Anyway this addon are great, using it from early versions :)

Posted Mar 17, 2009bug fix for Report(1.1-3)
Whisper bug fix in Skada.lua line 1009 change to Skada:Report(report_channel, Skada.db.profile.report.chantype, Skada.db.profile.report.mode, Skada.db.profile.report.set, Skada.db.profile.report.number)
Custom channel bug fix in Skada.lua line 1096 replace with
local list = {GetChannelList()} for i=1,table.getn(list)/2 do info.text = list[i*2] info.checked = (Skada.db.profile.report.channel == list[i*2]) info.func = function() Skada.db.profile.report.channel = list[i*2]; Skada.db.profile.report.chantype = "channel" end UIDropDownMenu_AddButton(info, level) end
and in Skada:Report function add these under "function Skada:Report(channel, chantype, report_mode_name, report_set, max)"
if(chantype == "channel") then local list = {GetChannelList()} for i=1,table.getn(list)/2 do if(Skada.db.profile.report.channel == list[i*2]) then channel = list[i*2-1] break end end end
Thanks for the great work! I just replace Recount with it!!!

Posted Mar 16, 2009tested 1.1-1 today.
no errors
its really coming together, nice work. I know a couple of items that I need have already been planned by author or others have suggested, but I thought I would do a simple side by side with results from Skada and Recount.
RECOUNT SKADA
Suggestions or Enhancements:
Thanks for the above considerations,
and keep up the good work.
p.s I am a nub at forum formatting; tried to get the table to align (sigh)
