party battle text

If anyone has a simple solution to getting MSBT to throttle my party's damage I would be grateful. As much fun as it seeing 10,000 numbers when spamming arcane explosion and holy nova I'd much rather see the
xx,xxx dmg (40 hits, 12 crits) type display when my 4 slaves are aoe'ing away rather than having my entire screen flood with numbers

yeah, my roommate went to a 25-man raid on my comp without realizing that i had been messing with the combat text... 25 separate sources of damage can get a bit spammy...

i seem to remember seeing a setting somewhere for throttling, but i can't think of where it might be.. i'm at work right now, i'll try to remember to take a look when i get home if someone else doesn't answer first :P

Look at the settings window, when you first type /msbt the window that appears, there's a way in there(its pretty obvious when you see it) to throttle down the speeds, tho i dont know much about the syntax or settings ... havent figured it out yet how it all works hehehe!

as to the question "whats the graph at the top of my screen?" its recount fps chart.... if you use recount (its a damage meter addon, you can find it on curse.com) something like /recount realtime fps brings it up... its resizeable and show's a flowing chart of fps... you can also set latency and mem usage i believe to their own charts.... its pretty neat, i like it just for the looks of it



i'd be interested in starting an all druid team on a server somewhere, but only two of my 5 are under raf bonus time, and i'm still working my dk's and druid to 80 on azgalor yet.... perhaps once i get to the goal i may start a group and chill with yas =) we'll see... what server do you reside on, alliance/horde?

8. Add a condition, source unit affiliation = party member. (Basically what this is saying is when the source of a spell is coming from a party member fire this trigger) okay so here's where i made MY change to make it so i can show a specific member's name. Instead of adding source unit affiliation party member, i chose to set source unit affiliation = <character name>make sure you use proper capitalization however... and in the out put message(to keep things easier to keep track of, instead of %n for name, just put the name in... i set up 4 different scroll areas, shrank the size, and then put my characters in one at a time, also specifying crits in a separate event, so it would separate them(bigger text, and sticky option)

I just downloaded the latest ver. of Mik's Scrolling battle text 5.4.49. Under set source unit affiliation = " ". I see options " Focus, Mine, Outsider, Party Member, Raid Member, Target, You"
I do not see where I can type in the "character name" anywhere. Do I miss some steps in the setup :?:
