You asked for a "DPS Meter" that is also a "Threat Meter".
Recount is, at it's heart, a "Damage Meter". You can add the RecountThreat addon to it, so that Recount tracks everything it normally does - and also makes it a "Threat Meter" Skada is a "Damage Meter" with a built in "Threat Meter". They have minor differences, but both of them will allow you to see the changes to your DPS if you change up your gear or rotation. In fact, this is a very common use for these addons. Skada's threat meter is built in. Recount requires you to also install RecountThreat for it to act as a threat meter. |

I want an actual meter "meter" so I don't have to use chat to look at my DPS. |
Recount is a visual meter. The chat postings of Recount are a feature of it.

I'm really confused. Recount is a visual meter in a windowed/paneled form. It has nothing to do with needing to read chat unless someone posts the results of the fight afterward.
Those are the panels that appear on your screen. Sounds exactly like what you want to me. |

Someone already explained up there^ that you have to install the threat module to go along with it. Google Recount. It's literally the first result, and has a long and exact description/explanation of what it is.

Do you want help or do you just want to be rude to people who try to help you? Because so far in this thread, all I've seen is the latter. Good luck on your search for whatever it is you seem to be after, even though the answer to your question was already provided for you.

Take a look at Skada. It may take a bit of sorting out but it allows you to set up multiple windows to show what you want whether, threat, damage, dps, healing etc.
http://www.wowinterface.com/download...mageMeter.html It has 5 screenshots showing some of the information available. Download it, find a test dummy and see if it suits the bill. |
It's hard to help someone that has preconceived notions (regarding just about anything) of how things do or don't work without any firsthand experience. If that weren't bad enough, you act as if everyone is here to serve you. What makes you think someone is going to create an addon just to cater to your needs and wants?

this is what I was looking for "Skada is entirely modular; the modes listed below are all separate addons. Only the modes you load adds to the memory and CPU cycles used." I am a comp techy who is trying to reduce all the lag on my system so I can pin it to ISP or Blizzard for lag issues so I can contact the right ppl to work on it to fix it up. If u couldn't figure that out stop programming ur whole life and get out more with ppl.

That's enough. You were being rude. These people are taking their free time to help you and offer suggestions. I am so proud that this community is as helpful and friendly as it is. Don't bite the hand that feeds you. And don't make more rude comments when people are offended at your behavior.
Welcome to the forums. I hope that you choose to come back. But, next time, please have a little respect for those that you ask for help. And, please, read through our forum/site rules before posting again: http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...84&postcount=2 |

This thread is great is pure madness/fun. I do not want to offend anybody but this are my thoughts:
First, RazorClaw99 asked for "[...] an addon that has both a threat meter as well as a DPS meter" After he has been given an answer of two of the most used AddOns, he assumes that they both are only textual. Ok, very smart to say that an AddOn is lacking a feature the AddOn (in fact) is based of if you have no conception and did not take a single look at it. Try a research first next time before repeate yourself, being foolish and rude to others. eg: 10 posts after Othgar's suggestions, you say thanks to Xrystal posting a link to Skada (with a nice description, I have to say!). It shows that you have not take a minute to search and look for the given answers but relied on your wrong evaluation of them. There is no big difference between the 'Module' system Skada has and the Recount plugin regarding 'disk space'. Skada needs 2.5 MB of disc space, Recoutn needs 1.6 MB Regarding the fact that WoW needs about 30 GB of disc space, your argument seems valid :D You should be more worried about CPU usage than disc or RAM usage of an AddOn. "If u couldn't figure that out stop programming ur whole life and get out more with ppl." Also you claim yourself as "a comp techy", I ask myself if you have any experience in programming a script/application that has more than 500 lines of code or is done by dozens of contributors. I am glad you get what you were looking for. Thanks to the nice and constructive people. And thanks for the lolz! |
