Combat Log Fix  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: r20100217
by: Shadowed [More]

Fixes the combat log break bugs that have existed since 2.4. Credit goes to Imbad on ArenaJunkies for finding this. It works by clearing your combat log essentially, but it does it a little bit more automatically:

Slash commands: /logfix

On zone type change (pvp -> none, raid -> none, etc) it will clear the combat log
If no combat log events are found for 2 seconds after you cast a spell, it'll clear the log. It will also report how many combat log messages you had when it broke, if you can report these numbers in comments that would be great, might help narrow the bug down.

The above are enabled by default, you can disable them with /logfix.

- Changed logic, now based off of when the spell with a cost (mana/health/rage/etc) is cast and checks if any combat log messages fired within the last 1 second
- Fixed events not being unregistered
- Reduced timeout to 2 seconds
- Initial commit (/logfix), auto fixes the combat log by clearing it

If this fixes the problems I've been having, well, since 2.4, I will worship the ground you walk on, sir.

You should see less false positives with it clearing the combat log due to server/client side lag, or when hearthing. Update isn't really necessary unless it bugs you.

Are you using the first version, or the one I released a few hours later?

It seems to fix the damage and healing in the combat log fine but doesn't seem to fix interupts/dispels although I haven't had many chances to test it.

Are you sure? It really shouldn't be a partial fix, pretty much an all or nothing.

I'm not sure if its the combat log itself or MSBT but MSBT is definitely not reporting interupts/dispels after the combat log breaks and fixes.

Do I have to do something special to make it work? It doesn't seem to be doing anything at all.

The /logfix command works and I have everything set to enabled but it doesn't seem to clear my combat logs nor does it fix broken ones. And it doesn't give me the line that says how much it cleared.

What class are you? Also try I think it's /logfix status, make sure auto fixing is on.

I'm having inconsistent results using it for Arenaing on both a rogue and a death knight.

It doesn't seem to have an issue in PvE though I never get the report line saying how many it cleared so i'm not sure if it's working.

/logfix status reports:

[05:07:10] Log Fixer: Showing set options
[05:07:10] Message report is enabled
[05:07:10] Wait on clear is disabled
[05:07:10] Auto clearing is enabled
[05:07:10] Zone clearing is enabled

Hrm, it might be due to Rogues and Death Knights not triggering the cast events properly. One thing you could try is manually running /script CombatLogClearEntries() and seeing if that does it.

It's a weird fix, if you want to trust the ArenaJunkies poll, it fixes it for about 80% of the people, but not the other 20%.
