Foundry Tactical Combat (FTC) Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 0.72

by: Atropos [More]

Foundry Tactical Combat is a user interface enhancement for The Elder Scrolls Online designed to give players access to relevant combat data in an easy to process framework which allows them to respond quickly and effectively to evolving combat situations. The multiple components of the FTC addon are designed to restore certain information to the game interface which many gamers may feel is missing from the default minimalistic UI.

The addon is still in active development by Atropos, and will hopefully continue to evolve and improve during the coming weeks and months. If you are a fan of the addon, keep an eye on the main addon page on Tamriel Foundry to ensure you always have the latest version.

FTC Components

Foundry Tactical Combat has six primary components which are each optionally configurable. All UI elements added by FTC can be disabled or repositioned to suit your preferences. Additionally, Foundry Tactical Combat is fully localized for French and German client versions!

Unit Frames – FTC Unit Frames refers to the display of attribute bars and other information pertaining to yourself, your target, and your group members. The FTC frames are designed to be lightweight and informative. The frames show numerical values for your resources and damage shielding, as well as visual indicators for active HoT and DoT effects, your target’s exceute threshold, and more. The unit frames can have a rich set of aesthetic customization options allowing you to achieve the exact look that fits your UI style.

Active Buff Tracking – The Buff Tracking component of FTC displays a configurable list of icons representing the known buff and debuff effects that are currently affecting your character. The ESO addon API does not provide this information for buffs with durations shorter than 30 seconds, but FTC uses an intelligent combination of detection mechanisms to carefully approximate your inventory of active effects. This knowledge can help you make more informed combat decisions, improve your resource management, and optimize your ability rotation.

Combat Log – Foundry Tactical Combat incorporates a text-based combat log which records a history of combat events so that you can review the details of recent encounters. The combat log by default alternates visibility with the ESO chat tab, but can be detached and positioned wherever you desire on-screen. An optional keybinding can be used to quickly toggle the visibility of the combat log.

Scrolling Combat Text – The FTC Scrolling Combat Text component enables real-time display of damage and healing values as they occur in combat as well as a helpful Combat Alerts component that warns your character immediately when significant combat events occur. FTC’s combat text displays the name and icon (when possible) for known sources of damage as well as useful indicators for damage avoidance through shielding, blocking, or dodging. The display style and format of scrolling combat text events can be customized in the settings menu.

Damage Statistics – The Damage Statistics component adds analytical tools to help you examine and improve your combat performance. While in-combat a small DPS meter tracks the length of your current encounter, your cumulative damage-per-second, and your cumulative healing-per-second throughout the fight. After combat has concluded, you can open a full Damage Report which details the composition of your damage and healing by target. These statitics can be linked to your party members in chat using a configurable keybinding or by clicking on the chat icons in the damage report.

Advanced Hotbar – The Advanced Hotbar component improves the default ESO action bar by adding some additional information that is useful in combat. Your current Ultimate pool and your percentage towards the next Ultimate activation is displayed as well as a visual glow indicator behind the ultimate itself which indicates that you are currently generating additional Ultimate in combat. The Advanced Hotbar component also adds an explicit potion cooldown timer so you can know exactly when you will be able to use your next consumable item.

Installation Instructions
To install Foundry Tactical Combat follow these steps. FTC is also supported by Minion, an automated ESO addon management utility.

1) Download FTC_Current.zip to a location of your choosing.
2) Extract the .zip archive into your ESO addons folder found in My Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/Addons/ for Windows users, or Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/Addons. for OS X.
3) You should now have a folder inside Addons named “FoundryTacticalCombat” which contains the addon files.
4) Launch The Elder Scrolls Online. FTC should be automatically enabled. If not, go to the Add-Ons section of the game menu and make sure that the box beside Foundry Tactical Combat is checked.
5) Access the FTC configuration settings by navigating in-game to Settings -> Add-Ons -> FTC, or by simply typing “/ftc” into chat.

Should be easy enough because the only difference between clients are names of the skills.

Here i made some translations in the FoundryTacticalCombat\buffs\Effects.lua for the Sorcerer and Restostaff-Skilline:

Code:

-- Restoration Staff
["heilende Quellen^p"] 			= {	{ 1 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 3 , false , 0.5 } , { 2 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 3 , true , 0.5 } },
["Mutagen^n"] 				= {	{ 1 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 20 , true , 0.5 }},
["Segen der Wiederherstellung^m"]       = {	{ 1 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 8 , false , 1 } , { 2 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 8 , true , 1 } },
["standhafter Schutz^m"] 		= {	{ 1 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 6 , false , 1 } },

--Sorcerer--
["endloser Zorn^m"] 			= {	{ 2 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_DEBUFF , 4 , true , 0.5 } },
["grenzenloser Sturm^m"] 		= {	{ 1 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 6 , false , 0.5 } },
["Blitzfeld^n"] 		        = {	{ 1 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_BUFF , 3 , false , 1 } , { 2 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_DEBUFF , 3 , false , 1 } },
["Kristallfragmente^p"] 		= {	{ 2 , BUFF_EFFECT_TYPE_DEBUFF , 2.4 , true , 3 } },

--also put the AOE`s in function FTC.Buffs:IsGroundTarget( name )

'heilende Quellen^p',
'Blitzfeld^n'

--and for shields in function FTC.Buffs:IsDamageShield( name )

'standhafter Schutz^m'

I hope i could help you with this.
At the begining for me it was hard to find out the right suffix like "^m" or "^p" and also case sensitivity is important. For me the addons "Combat Log Statistics" or "Recount" could help me with the right nemes a bit. If there is no way to find out the correct suffix you may try from a-z, or does anybody knows a better way?
For the "Greater Stom Atronach" skill i cant find any working translation, anybody could help?

I also have a problem with the "function FTC.Buffs:IsToggle( name )" and the longterm buffs, they are not shown. But i could add them to my UI via Warlegend.

I get this error as well and it only started happening after the last update of FTC (ZrMM hasn't been updated for a while). When I disable FTC the error is gone and ZrMM works again.

If you are using the updated/modified version of ZrMM see this:
http://www.esoui.com/downloads/filei...d=142#cmnt9120

If you are using the really old school one that hasn't been updated since 3/31, can't really help you... but you might want to consider switching to the one that is actively being updated.

Edit, not sure why the permanent link didn't work but basically it says delete the zrMM saved variables and this goes away.

FoundryTacticalCombat\sct\Functions.lua

Rows 153-177

Code:

-- Flag blocked damage
if ( damage.result == ACTION_RESULT_BLOCKED_DAMAGE ) then
	dam		= "|c990000(" .. dam .. ")|"

-- Flag damage immunity
elseif ( damage.result == ACTION_RESULT_IMMUNE ) then
	dam		= "|c990000(Immune)|"

-- Dodges
elseif ( damage.result == ACTION_RESULT_DODGED ) then
	dam		= "|c990000(Dodge)|"

-- Flag heals
elseif( damage.heal == true ) then
	dam = "|c99DD93" .. dam .. "|"
	if string.match( damage.name , "Potion" ) then damage.name = "Health Potion" end

-- Magic damage
elseif ( damage.type ~= DAMAGE_TYPE_PHYSICAL	) then
	dam = ( context == "Out" ) and "|c336699" .. dam .. "|" or "|c990000" .. dam .. "|"

-- Standard hits
else
	dam = ( context == "Out" ) and "|cAA9F83" .. dam .. "|" or "|c990000" .. dam .. "|"
end

The "|c336699","|c990000","|cAA9F83" etc is the colors where |c is telling the game that here comes a color value and the following 6 hexnumbers is the values. Where in the case of "|c336699" the red=33, green=66 and blue=99. Max values for each is FF since it's hex.
Hope it helps until we get a complete settings screen for all the goodies.

I love you!!!

Yep, got it in one, Try jumping off a small cliff and you'll see it is quite effective

@Atropos

Many thanks for your addon, I am wondering is it possible at all in terms of aesthetics to keep the default bar graphics whilst maintaining the layout design of the frames? Pure curiosity for me as I have never really been a fan of rectangle/box frames, though dislike having several addons for functionality of one.

Also, Crystal Fragments proc (Instant cast, short duration buff) does not show up in player buff frame.

EDIT: Question and bug report for Author.

That is a little graphical display of real-time/last combat dps, hps, dtps.

I haven't actually tried to disable it, however the option for the damage meter might do the trick for you.
