Damage meter

FourOne · 05/25/14, 07:19 AM

Hi there!

Since 1.1 we could really need a proper dmg-meter, Recount and CLS are outdated and don't show group damage - this should be possible now duo the changes of the API restriction.

Is there someone who is willing to update Recount/CLS or is up for coding a new dmg-meter? Think many peeps in the community would appreciate this.

So far, FourOne.

No? Where do you have that info from?

Just tick "allow outdated addons".
They're still working fine.

So all in all it was probably an accident as their Group-DPS limitation was very well intended
and it seems like it already got hotfixed (disabled) again.

OK, thought it was intended... Nevermind

Nope that 's to much information to be send/recv per second.
Maybe only for completing a combat but that would ultimatively
require a really proper logic before it could be used (that takes
into consideration multiple enemies and basically sends/recvs only
a minimal amount of data in a longer timeframe)

Hmm I thought the addon coud then just write your current DPS/HPS into guildnote every 5 sec or so and other players coud read it out with their recount. It woud of cause only work if you are not the only one how has the addon and it will not show where other players dps/hps is from. I think its a good idea because so the infos are only visible from ppl who want to see other ppls dps too.

The problem is, it's clear that ZO don't want us to create such addons, so even if you find a way around it, you're just going to force them to further restrict the API.
