Scorchio!

Scorchio! Test Bars

Scorchio! keeps track of Mages' Improved Scorch debuff and warns you when you need to reapply the debuff on various mobs. It sync's information with other Scorchio! users so you can see which mobs are fire vulnerable at a glance!

scorchio:
- Added Raid Target Icons and configuration options.
- Reworked "Receive data from combat log events in range". Switching this off will now only parse messages created by you, or where it affects a mob you have in your scorchTable. This is useful in busy zones where you're soloing and the new combat log methodology will bring up bars for people scorching mobs from miles around!
- Replaced fake test bars with real triggered bars for placement/configuration. These will trigger "Vulnerability Expired" messages, but not "Rescorch" messages.
- Reverted changes to automatic blacklist creation.
- Fixed bug in target colour customisations.
- Fixed bug in COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED which could occasionally cause an error "table index is nil".
- Fixed/reverted changes to SSYN handling.
- Merged SetStacks() and UpdateTableScorch() and refined logic.
- Standardise and contextualise variable names.
- Massive code tidy up (ongoing process).

scorchio:
- Fixed double notification of vulnerability running out.
- Add configuration and support code to customise target bar colours.
- Removed all the casting notification code. It doesn't work with the current COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED way of doing things and until I can find another way of handling it, I feel that less code is better!
- Changed duplicate event window to 0.8 seconds (down from 1.2) to hopefully cover hastened scorches.

Installation Guide

Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
  - Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
  - WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
  - WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
  - StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.

- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.

Translations

When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".

TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)

When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.

If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support

WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.
