There was some issues with sync I fixed last night which were causing messages not to be read which resulted in everyone trying to send messages for everyone that was fixed. Basically get everyone to update to the latest version and I'm hoping it will go away due to throttling added in but need to do some testing.

I asked one of the officers in my guild to download and use Recount last night. He received the same error referenced in this post. You posted that this error is caused by a buggy version of Omen/Threat- but he doesn't have Omen/Threat downloaded at all.

Any thoughts?

some questions concerning the addon recount:

1) is the syncing done automatically?
2) how can i make pet damage merge to the appropriate user?
3) I seem to be getting different damage result from everyone else?
4) the report button seems to be very small compare to the other buttons, I have to scroll over to this specific spot in order to open it, like the area to click is a lot smaller than the other icons.

graph disable at log in

I am unable to find an in-game method to prevent the graphs from showing up again. I clicked dps on raid and fps a couple times and then closed them all. But when I logged back on the same amount of graph windows shows up. My current solution is to delete the recount files in WTF folder.

Also I tried clicking Damage Done and my dps doesnt show like how SW Stats has your dps at the top. Great addon. Keep up the good work.

I updated the addon yesterday afternoon (which therefore should have been after the fix you mentioned) and used it in my raid last night. Unfortunately, I was still having the same issue. After a wipe on Karathress, I would have to wait up to five minutes for everyone's numbers to stop ticking upward. Resetting Recount (/recount reset) would reset previously accumulated data, but there would still be bits ticking in.

This is absolutely amazing Cryect, I haven't used it since around when you first posted here, and it's come a long way.

Just one small tweak to the death details: it autoselects the first death, but 99% of the time what I want to view is acutally the *last* death. I kept confusing my raid last night when I was talking about the wrong death.

Threat is a part of Recount. (Threat's a library that can be used by other addons).

1) Yes
2) It tries to automatically do it but few issues with pets of the same name I'm going to address shortly
3) Sync issues seems to be messing it up
4) The click area is the exact same so not sure?

Argh, I wish AceComm had a way to expose the queue size :-/ Back to work on that.

Bwah once again. Making a slight change that hopefully will fix it a little (I wasn't seeing it yesterday so thought it went away).

Yesterday in SSC we've had quite unpleasant issue regarding Recount. All people who were using Recount, had major problems with raid threatmeter Omen. Omen values were either invalid or were just not there (aka players did not see themself or several other players).

When all of us temporarily removed Recount, things started to work normal again.

I love this addon but I'd love to see a feature to disable sync. It's a pita when it auto syncs when you're trying to find out important info Thanks for your hard work on this.

To those having issues or getting errors regarding Threat-1.0, I believe you just need to make sure all your mods that use Threat-1.0 (Omen, Pitbull, Recount, etc) are in sync.

As in, search your addons folder for Threat-1.0.lua, and make sure all occurences have the *exact* same timestamp. Any versions that don't match are likely to be the cause of your errors. I always make sure, when I update, that all Threat-1.0 based mods are in sync, and have never gotten any the the Threat related errors described here.

Or just use standalone version on Threat-1.0

I'm having a most peculiar bug with recount (always updated to latest version) where one of our shadowpriests will always get his healing done added as damage. It even keeps adding damage out of combat, its very annoying and completely skews the table. Our other shadowpriests do not cause this to happen, I dont even think the shadowpriest in question has Recount installed. Its very odd.

And for the people that want to change the look of Recount, there is a skin for Recount in Skinner now.

This can actually cause more problems. If you blindly put a version of Threat-1.0 (standalone) in there, it may not be compatible with each of the other addons, as they may have not been built or tested against it.

A more foolproof approach is to download each mod complete, that uses Threat-1.0, and verify they each uses the same verison. Then you know they were built and tested against that version, and it's the same version for each parent.

Or just update all of your Ace addons at the same time including standalone libraries.

You are wrong. With mutiply instance of some lib, only one will be loaded and different versions will cause problems 99% of time. What exactly you will achieve by cheking build numbers? Omen and other addons are simply display data from threat lib. Its not possible for them to be uncompatible, unless Antiarc will make some huge change in how Threatlib works. Best way is to use wowaceupdater and download all mods without externals and use standalone libs.

Minor thing that may or may not be an easy fix...

The font replacement addon ClearFont2's default replacement font shifts the details page vertical location by a bit. That is, the crit %, hit%, etc, values. This is the only place I've seen an issue with text placement.

Not sure if its possible to do some sort of relative layout for said values, but briefly installing it would illustrate the issue.

I've been trying to figure out how to display this information...

How can I display the amount resisted (not %resist) per spell, and not per type of magic (ie, shadow / fire)?

Ok so another issue regarding sync. I'm in a french guild, so people are using recount with frFR locale, and they sync french data, which means I have in my dps "Fireball" and "Boule de Feu" seperately. And still incoming data when ooc ;x

Could you add an option to disable sync ?

Humm...

Just downloaded the latest version r44757 (not updated it since before synch) and it´s throwing errors at me from login. The error it gives me is:

Interface\AddOns\Recount\Sync.lua:167:AceComm-2.0: `SetCommPrefix' must be called before sending a message.

If i click OK, the box keeps coming back. Am I missing something that I should download or is this some slip up in the latest version of Recount?

I'll ask again seeing as I got no answer to my previous question.

Recount is using obscene amounts of memory(up to 10-30 MiB) after having a lot of information, say in a raid or in Alterac Valley - Is this normal? I'm thinking of replacing the addon because of this, because it's the addon that uses the most memory, nearly 50%.

Clear the data.
or
Set it to collect less data (in the options, reduce the 'time based' data).

No other mod keeps logs of the damage done and timestamps them. That is why it can use a lot of memory. There is absolutely no way to use less memory when you are collecting and recording that data.

Lastly, 30MB? So what. My machine has 2GB or RAM. Unless you are running with 512MB or ram or less, memory shouldn't be your primary concern.
