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".

This version of Skada is updated for World of Warcraft: Midnight and uses Blizzard's new session-based combat systems.

Posted Aug 8, 2011With the new Title Bar, its easy to report , select mode, etc. But since the new title bar, i no longer see the little Wheel (config icon), in the upper right hand corner to allow reporting when you choose to keep the Title Bar hidden.
Is there a /slash command to pull this up? Currently i have to /skada config, enable the title bar, then i have access to the reporting options.

Posted Aug 8, 2011Given that I had them surrounded by other UI elements, this makes me exceedingly unhappy at the change.
Is there a fix I just haven't found yet?

Posted Aug 8, 2011There is no option to set max. bars shown, therefore I'm not able to fit it like this again: http://s.wowinterface.com/preview/pvw52264.jpg
(2 frames, aggro and dmg/heal)
What's the point of redesigning the layout(options)?

Posted Aug 7, 2011Any reason why your Absorbs module records widely innacurate information in regards to Paladin bubbles via Illuminated Healing Mastery?
I'm seeing variances in numbers of over 1 million effective healing difference between your mod and World of Logs on my Pally.
In game the meters attribute the vast majority of the shields to me, and not my Pally healing partner. Yet on World of Logs its properly attributed to the right healer. You can tell because my total healing for spells that generate IH has a maximum limit of 13-15% of my total depending on my equipped Mastery Gear and in-game the percent sometimes exceeds 20-30%.

Posted Aug 7, 2011Ya, it was the "Total" that gave the error.
No errors at all with r338, everything is working great.

Posted Aug 7, 2011Will you add in some kind of profile support, such as a default setting that all new characters will have? I liked the older behavior where I could set up my Skada window on one toon, and have all the settings apply to other characters without having to change profiles.
Also, I find that I have to keep on resetting the background and border options. They do not save. I set the border to "none", and the background to total transparency, and the settings neither save, nor carry over between reloadui.

2x Skada\Skada-r336.lua:704 attempt to index local "pvpinfo" (a nil value)
1 return of GetZonePVPInfo() is a String not a Table
http://www.wowwiki.com/API_IsInInstance
5x SkadaDamage-r336\Damage-Damage.lua:315 attempt to index local "player" (a nil value)
you hover over the "total" right?
fix:
bardisplay.lua
l 125
but you get an error if you shift click on total
