AAV - atrox Arena Viewer  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.2.10
by: Zwacky [More]

AAV is an arena replay addon, that lets you record or even broadcast arena matches.
These arena matches can be viewed within WoW, while doing your daily quests, raids or just idling in Dalaran. It's optimized to run in very good-performance.

If you ever wanted to analyze your arena matches, why you died on that particular time on that particular match against that particular game and what skill could have been used, then **AAV ** is a gem for you! Or if you want to follow your guildmates while they're doing arena, just hop in to their broadcast and watch their play.

Features

  • record, replay, delete arena matches
  • broadcast arena matches to **guild** mates
  • see used skills
  • casting bar
  • cooldown bar
  • interrupts (school locks)
  • target system
  • health and mana tracking
  • change game speed in replay
  • minimap icon menu
  • match statistics (damage/healing done, ratings)

Limitation
AAV is like a graphical and interactive combatlog, that parses every action in the arena. However, it's not possible to keep track of the positionings. Who knows, maybe Blizzard opens up their API to make coordination gathering available in arena; this would make **AAV ** more workable.

Slash Commands
  • /play [number] - plays a given match.
  • /delete [number] - deletes a give match.
  • /record - whether a match will be recorded.
  • /broadcast - enable/disable broadcasting.
  • /lookup - lists all available broadcasts.
  • /connect [name] - connects to the broadcast with the given name.

Known Bugs
  • in rare cases stealth classes are not visible at all
  • during broadcasting the icon and healthbar of combatants may switch places in rare cases and the buff and debuf bar doesn't fit

FAQ
How much Memory does the addon use?
The addon is optimized for high-performance and as few memory usage as possible. Due to these requirements the player uses in play less than 1 MB memory. An average match takes up from 60 ~ 180kb, depends on heavy usage of spells and events (warlocks and resto druids do their job pretty well!).
Matches can be deleted to free memory if needed.

Does it hurt my FPS rate?
Not at all. From the stated requirements in the first question the addon is designed for high-performance and you won't notice any FPS loss.

Does my ping increase while broadcasting?
Not at all as well. The sent data is small and won't delay your latency. Additionally a sending mechanism takes care of the sending behaviour so you will never burst in sending data.

Isn't it possible to disconnect when sending too much data?
Yes, it is possible, but in AAV a sending mechanism takes care of all outgoing data. Rather sending all data at once, it apportions the big load of data over a certain time, that prevents from being disconnected.

Where is the match data stored to?
World of Warcraft\WTF\<your account>\SavedVariables\aav.lua

I don't record/broadcast any combat events anymore, only Healthbar and Mana changes, why?
This happens when your combat log and any addons that use the //COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED //event (like AAV or afflicted) get screwed up due to massive glitched spam (courtesy of Blizzard). If you're familiar with the /run CombatLogClearEntries() command, that's being fired on every frame update, then you //should// be fine.
Otherwise type /run ReloadUI() or relog will solve this problem. The incomplete match data that have been recorded under the bug cannot be fixed to show other events than Health's or Mana's.

The damage in the score board doesn't match with my recount's, why?
In the current version pets are completely disabled, means, their damage and contribution doesn't count yet.

Hi, you can use directory linking on windows to get the folder in SSD to point to a folder on HDD. this will accomplish what you ask for, but will slow down the game loading a bit if you have lots of addons (SSD reading is much faster than HDD, which is probably why you have SSD in the first place)

I'll answer this one, there is no way whatsoever for any addon to save files outside of the WTF/Saved Variables folder(s). It's just not possible, the API doesn't allow for a file location to be set, blizzard controls the location, and there is no way to get around it.

And it won't fill with excess files, it can only use the single file, where it will store all the data.

You can always move the file to another location when you close wow, and then wow will create a new one when you start the game next.

never thought about it that way, that really could look slick, thx!

you're right, i was (semi) working on it for the next release. though there is only one really important localization to make it work: ARENA_START. After it pronounces, that the arena has started, aav starts tracking all events. If that localization sentence is invalid, the tracking will never start.

otherwise you could help out by adding your translations here: http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/aav.../localization/

thank you =)

no, i'm really bad when it comes to UI design. the used healthbar texture is named "oCB" and is present in every bigger unit frame addon out there. So you could make a familiar looking UI by that.
but i'm afraid, i don't have any packages, nor is there a functionality to change the look of aav (yet!).
I think he means that actual setup.

Would be awesome if you could somehow turn it into actual unit frames.

Hi, grats for your add-on.

I tried to solve the problem with the french client by myself and I created fr localization, but it still doesn't work... (???)

I have maybe wrote some wrong lines and it'll be nice if you could push the fr localization. If u want I can post here what I've already done :]

Thank you, cya

could you tell me your client language?
this looks like a bug in the locale settings. perhaps the event hasn't been caught to start the arena, which is listening to a certain sentence (in this case "The Arena battle has begun!")

thx for the reply
yes, i meant the /run CombatLogClearEntries() command. some put this in a custom frame, that will be called on every frame (so with 60 fps 60 times), but might lower your overall fps.

the ReloadUI command fixes it completely if the error occurs. both commands are for the broadcaster and not the viewers.
that should make it!
