Installation

This requires https://github.com/balakethelock/SuperWoW to work.

Remove AdvancedVanillaCombatLog and AdvancedVanillaCombatLog_Helper directories from your addons folder if they existed.

Place SuperWowCombatLogger in Interface/Addons.

Preparing for upload

If you don't have Python installed you'll need to get it from here https://www.python.org/downloads/, the windows store, or whatever package manager you use.

<b>In the installer wizard, make sure to check the box that says "Add Python to PATH".</b>

In order to upload your logs to monkeylogs/turtlogs you need to run format_log_for_upload.py on your WowCombatLog.txt.

Copy format_log_for_upload.py and run_format_log.bat(windows) or run_format_log.sh(mac/linux) to the same directory as your WowCombatLog.txt and double click the appropriate run_format_log file. You can also run the python script directly in a terminal in that directory with python format_log_for_upload.py.

Fill in the name of your log file when prompted or use the defaults, then upload a zip containing the formatted log to monkey/turtlogs. It now automatically determines your player name.

Changes from AdvancedVanillaCombatLog

• No longer requires any raiders to run the AdvancedVanillaCombatLog_Helper addon.
• No longer need to spam failure messages to write to the log
• No longer overwrites all of the combat event format strings to change you -> playername. This would break addons like bigwigs that looked for messages like "You have been afflicted by Poison Charge". It does still overwrite the initial debuff/buff events to add a (1) because I deemed it unlikely to break other addons and is convenient compared to editing those messages after the fact.

    AURAADDEDOTHERHELPFUL = "%s gains %s (1)."
    AURAADDEDOTHERHARMFUL = "%s is afflicted by %s (1)."
    AURAADDEDSELFHARMFUL = "You are afflicted by %s (1)."
    AURAADDEDSELFHELPFUL = "You gain %s (1)."

• Self damage is now separated as Playername (self damage)
• Shaman totem spells are edited to appear as though the shaman cast them so they get credit for the spell.
• Pet autoattacks will now appear under "Auto Attack (pet)" on their owners and their spells will appear as though the owner cast them.
• Greater Feral Spirit, Battle Chicken, Arcanite Dragonling are similarly edited to associate with their owners.
• Tracks the caster and target for the following max level spells that were missing from the combat log:
  • Faerie Fire
  • Sunder Armor
  • Curse of the Elements
  • Curse of Recklessness
  • Curse of Shadow
  • Curse of Weakness
  • Curse of Tongues
  • Expose Armor
  • Heal over Time casts (ticks have the original spell name)
    • Rejuvenation Cast -> Improved Rejuvenation
    • Regrowth Cast -> Improved Regrowth
    • Renew Cast -> Improved Renew
