Wow Max Dps Addon
Hello,I'm developer of rotation helper addon named TDDps. It is a simple single-target rotation helper that helps new players to learn rotation.Here is the video how it worksMajor problem is that It is impossible for me to maintain all of them because:1. I don't play all classes, at least not to the point i could say i know how to play them properly.2. It consumes too much time to update them once rotation changes (new expansion, raid tier, class changes)Currently on curse there are modules for Warrior, Warlock, Shaman and Priest BUT I have all of them somewhat prepared (icy veins rotation) except Monk and Rogue.So I am looking for players that knows their class and could help me with this. In both testing and maintaining.Why not use spellflash or insert-other-rotation-helper-here?Well thing is i have tried spellflash and it was not accurate enough, for some classes like hunter i found it extremely buggy like flashing always steady shot.There was another one I tried which was accurate but my FPS dropped to the floor while using it.
So I came up with the idea to create a new one that is:1. Super Lightweight2. Has proper rotation that I can actually use on at least heroic with full heroic gear3.
Does recognize talents and is good enough on low gear.Result was TDDps which currently takes 51KB memory (mostly because of options, textures) and 0.01% CPU usage in combat (it is just a set of library and helper functions).Plus Class module (Loaded on Demand) which takes 7KB memory and takes 0.1% CPU usage in combat.If that is still too much for someone, update interval is configurable from 10ms to 2000ms (by default rotation updates in 150ms interval)TDDps can be used as standalone library to for example for WeakAuras or other addons. Dialogue script sample. Thanks to that Warlock module has JUST one file and that file has 340 lines for all specializations including empty lines.
Modules are under GIT version control system.If you are interested in contributing, please contact me via Curse or here on the forum by private message.-Updated -How to write/edit module for this, In example of mage:The basic template for all classes are inside TDDps folder in TDDpsModulesmodule.lua.template.Replace class with full class name like RogueReplace spec1 - spec3 to full specialization name like BrewmasterHow do I do it? (If you want to try it yourself)1. Focus on one spec, write down all spell IDs on the top of the file (you can remove original variable 'Spell') that are relevant for specific specializations for example. Just downloaded and tested Mage helper. Very nice effects and Arcane seems to work okay (apart from it doesn't recommend Evocation if you have Prismatic Crystal chosen), Frost needs a little bit of work - icy veins never gets suggested for instance and it doesn't seem too flexible with talents.The one thing to add is how Archi class trinks affect playstyle. Mages BIS is archi class trink, so mages using it is very common.
Obviously it changes spell rotation and this isnt accounted for in the addon, BUT overall im impressed! (The addon not recognising and adapting for class trinks setups / number of mobs is NOT the end of the world as arcane but sticking to the rotation as frost in certainly not optimal).I love that it recognises doom nova and instantly recommends AM (great dps increase), and that it recommends using 3 x arcane missiles before using arcane power with HFC 4 set (to get powerup) is a very nice touch. PM me if you want a tester. In late content raiding any amount of mental resources you can reduce greatly improve performance.
How To Use Maxdps Addon
(you cant always be on form for 300 Gore wipes! - need to focus on mechanics and timing)Just my two cents anyway!
And you have TDDps + Class modules?There was issue not so long ago about this:1. Do you use english client or not? If not and it doesn't work for you, please send me your BTag on private message.2. Please check if you have proper folder names it should be exactly like this:TDDpsTDDpsWarlockTDDpsShamanevery letter counts. There was issue with packager and but this was suppose to be fixed long ago.Well no as it doesnt say anywhere on your curse page or this forum you need to seperatly download 'Class modules' unless im blind or going crazy But thanks ill download it when i come home. Bumping thread, since prepatch went live now everyone has access to new spells and yet again I am asking for help.Mini guide how can you help:There is one major condition here you need to meet to actually be able to help me. You need to understand rotation of specific class/spec and be able to execute it.
It doesn't need to be perfect, but it must be at least good.1. Do you have basic programming skills and some time?a) YesGreat, you can help with actual development of plugins, write me private message on Curse or on mmo-champion and I will explain (if first post is not enough) how to write rotation.b) NoThere are 2 ways you can help here:- Translate guide rotations into priority based list with conditions - may sound complex but its actually fairly simple. Something like this.
