Please try getting latest if you are having the issue of SCTD damage turning off. I turned off all code related to PvP to see if that fixes it. If it does, I know its something around that. If it doesn't I'll know its elsewhere.

Ok, here's my latest info on it using newest SVN without PvP code:
On initial login, everything works fine. As soon as either the SCT or SCTD Menus are opened, the damage text stops displaying. If I reloadui, everything works ok again, but once that menu gets opened...even if you don't change a thing, it breaks it.
About spell type colours: Shadow spell is show as gray and it's most of the time hard to see. Besides, gray isn't something I connect with shadow spells. Think priest shadow form or warlock shadow bolt for example: both are more purple and to some extend black instead of gray. So please, change the shadow color from gray to dark purple :).

I think the same, however mob special abilities are purple damage in the combat log. This would make it hard to distinguish shadow damage from physical special abilities :P
Amadeo, you are talking about SCTD damage right, not the WoW damage that appears over your targets head. I don't have any idea what it could. Not being able to reproduce it is making it impossible for me to track down. Can you try running only SCT/D and make sure its not some mod conflict. When it breaks, can you run these scripts seperately and tell me what each says:

About shadow damage, its supposed to be black, but that doesn't show up, so dark gray is the best I can do. Sorry if you don't like that =)
I'm sorry it took so long to get back to you, but I've done what you said. With all mods disabled other than SCT, the issue still happens. And yes, I do mean my damage being dealt to mobs, not incoming damage.
Thanks. Hmm, that indicates it should all be working. Couple things else I'd like you try.
First, when out of the game, goto your WTF/Account/SavedVariables folder and delete sct.lua and sct.bak. Then login and see if the helps at all (I doubt it).
Second, in the sct folder open up sct_event_config.lua and scroll down to the lines about "critical hits" and "all your his". Remove the "--" infront of each of those numbered lines, should be 15,16,17,18. This will in effect make SCT display your outgoing damage, and not SCTD. We'll see if that at least works to see if its some event problem.
Lastly, can you take a screenshot of your SCT and SCTD options if you don't mind.
I went ahead and deleted my saved variables and updated from SVN yet again, and everything is now working as it should. I honestly am confused as to why it ever happened in the first place, because I wasn't using SCT at all prior to "installing" it a few days ago, so I had no old saved variables. Either way, I don't know if this is a resolution to a hidden bug or just a fluke occurrence that won't happen again, but I'm happy that it's working properly now. So it looks like we just went around in a big circle here. :P
Just to add, I did uncomment those lines and it seemed to display no matter what, even prior to deleting my saved variable files. As for my options, I left everything standard but added Buff Fades and Combo Points.
Ahh, glad you got it working Amadeo. I imagine it was something with the saved variables just getting out of whack, but I can't imagine what. Either way thanks for your help in trying to track it down =)
I'm going to use some phrasing I used with Theondry for making comments on his commits to SVN:
Please, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, read the first post! This has also been brought up several more times throughout the course of the thread. It doesn't take too long to read through the posts and get caught up on everything.
And yes, I realize people miss things and the like, and I really am not jumping over your case personally, it's just that I keep seeing this kind of thing in many of the threads here.

Yes I am sorry, Normally I read everything. I used sct for ages and went to miks and just came back cause this is ace 2.0. I assumed I knew everything about sct being such a long term user. My assumptions made me look like an ass, Ill be sure and read more in future. Thanks for pointing it out. Actually now that you point it out, I do remember reading that also. I totally noob it up this time.
Ah, nothing to worry about :) Like I said, people make mistakes and such (especially me :) ) so I really wasn't jumping on your case per se, just all the other people that were thinking about posting the same question :)
Hi,
I think I´m blind as everytime :(
I really wanna try SCT 5.0 but i just can find that link "http://svn.wowace.com/root/trunk/SCT
" but when I click on it i just can find a few folders but no downloadable files. :(
go to www.wowace.com then click on ace wiki. at the bottom of the page there will be a colored link that says something like "whats SVN". Click it, then read up and download a program. you cant download all the files manual in your browser, you wont get eerything you need.
just a fyi i am getting that same bug where if i load the options menu the physical damage on SCT stops. I still get spell, heal, skill, etc... but the dmg part stops untill i do a /relaod ui

/script message(SCT.db.profile["SCTD_ENABLED"]) == 1
/script message(SCT.db.profile["SCTD_SHOWMELEE"]) == 1
/script message(SCT.db.profile["SCTD_SHOWSPELL"]) == 1
Not sure if that's what it was supposed to say or do, but I just got 1's for all of them.
Hope this helps! :/

"Now when Blizzard have practically build in a Scrolling Combat Text in the game, why should I use SCT?"
Good luck making a good answer, and thanks in advance for that answer. :)
