Like I posted in my thread: I haven't found a good parser.
ParseThis just really gives me back a total mess. I don't even see my chars name.

I have timestamp enabled and used /autolog. Is there anything else I need to change in the settings?

Always us the combat-log obviously to parse...but it really is a mess. Or I am way too used to Advanced Combat Tracker and how it is set up.

Not really - unless you are not logging something that it looks for (ie. Misses, others' damage, etc.)  I will also be adding more features soon that will reveal non-DPS figures - so it may be better to just log it all for now.  As for the Timestamp thing - that was one of the first problems I came across, so the workaround is already in-place.  It just needs to see [HH:MM:SS] at the beginning of each line to work properly.

ah I am sorry. I didn't mean to come over as rude Smiley

I guess "Player" is me. I am just confused as to why I am seeing names of other chars but not mine in the overview and I guess I am not really knowing how to read it.

Did you code the parser and if so, might I send you a pm with some questions about it?

Not at all.  Some log parsers will not show other entities' DPS - this one will.  I was merely suggesting that if you were set up for another app that ignores NPC or other players' damage or misses - you might want to enable those for comparison against your own damage.

I guess "Player" is me. I am just confused as to why I am seeing names of other chars but not mine in the overview and I guess I am not really knowing how to read it.

It shows you all DPS from any source in your vicinity - in other words, you can use it to compare their damage to yours (including NPC's.)  Where are you seeing "Player?"

Sure did - feel free.  Smiley

Just spotted the download. I was actually talking about this parser -> http://home.gwi.net/~mboutin/parsethis/ (sorry for the confusion).

Would it be possible to add the level and class to the players that get parsed too, in your version? Otherwise we would have to write them down by hand to remember them if we want to check out the files after a longer session. I am no coder and I don't know how Sigil is handling their log files so I am not sure if that would be possible.

For now, the communication is one-way (from the vanguard client to the parser by way of the log file.)  So the only way this could be done is if you were to periodically issue the /who command.  It may be possible to hook into the client and do something two-way - but knowing Brad McQuaid and Jeff Butler, it may be against the EULA.  This would be a huge disappointment, since UI mods are so common in other games these days...

Is there a way to export the pared info, and how should we get this to QTM?

Noticed a little bug...the parser believes the logs when it reads the 50 billion damage you sometimes see yourself do a little bit after leveling. I had one parse where I had like 25 million dps. But I guess that will not be fixed until Sigil fixes it on their end.

Sure, you can copy directly from the output text.  Just select with the mouse and either hit edit -> copy or right-click the text and select copy with the mouse.  Before bugging the devs, I'd like to make sure we have a good idea of what's happening.  Maybe we can collect our findings in a thread before passing them along?

I can probably remove these entries if the damage is just impossibly large.  Any idea what they look like in the log file?  Also, could you send me a screenshot of the output?

Getting some error when trying to start it (could not initlilize the program proper or sommert), need some sort of other software to support it? Freshly reinstalled the computer so I might very well be missing something obvious. ~

No problem, I will take some screenies of thecombat log and damage when I level today.

[edit] well, have not had any of the wierd 50 billion damage hits yet, maybe they fixed that, so I guess that is not an issue heh.

It requires the Microsoft .NET framework to run - it should download itself easily from Windows Update.

out of curiosity, do you plan on taking this as far as something like SW Stats or Damage Meters was for WoW, IE in game functionality with a display and such? Because if so...that would be amazing  Smiley
