Stupid text in the middle of my screen


I've posted about this before, but nothing I try works. I have this stupid green text in the middle of my screen when I get Missile Barrage proc'd on my mage. As frost, Fireball! is spammed in the center. My warrior has the same problem with Sword and Board. Here are my options for combat text (I don't use a combat text mod):

Anyone know what is causing this irritating text?

PLEASE HELP X_X

Try unchecking the floating combat text It's probably a forced inclusion to that as procs isn't an option it seems as the aura option isn't ticked so that must be for non procced auras or the more long term ones.

Though you have all of the types unchecked, I notice that you do still have "Enable My Floating Combat Text" enabled. Try turning it all the way off.

Unchecking it hides the normal combat text (damage) that is important. Is there a workaround, or is a mod required?

EDIT: Also, I downloaded the addon MoveAnything to see if I could locate the text that was responsible. After browsing through every single little checkbox, no cigar.

Ah, I suppose it would... But what you are seeing is coming from the default FCT. The only way to get rid of it, that I am aware of, is to use a replacement combat text addon.

Darn. SCT and MSBT and Parrot are the only ones I know of, and they change the text to appear in another location. Is there a mod that still has the yellow text above the mob's head? It's nice to know what you are hitting with your spells, and it's fun to watch numbers fly when you AoE

SCT keeps your yellow text unless you use SCT Damage

I believe you can allow the yellow text with MSBT and Parrot as well, but SCT I know for sure.

Yes, MSBT allows the default "yellow text" for sure as well...by default.

If unchecking "Enable Floating Combat Text" hides the damage then I suggest you repair your game or check that some addon isn't interfering as It shouldn't be hidden.

DOH! I love you. But unchecking it also hides the purple/red text you see when you get hit. That's important too :\
