arg1 formats are found in Blizzard's GlobalStrings.lua. Some possibilities:
|

|

Fired whenever a buff or debuff wears off - examples, Prowl, Mark of the Wild, Cat Form, or Disarm. arg1 is the full chat text, i.e. "Prowl fades from you." |

| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_CREATURE_VS_CREATURE_BUFF" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired when a mob begins casting a beneficial spell and again when the casting is completed. arg1 is the full combat chat text. Examples: Mob begins to cast Heal. Mob's Heal heals Mob for 20.

Examples:
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_DAMAGESHIELDS_ON_OTHERS" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_DAMAGESHIELDS_ON_SELF" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired when a buff (or possibly item) damages an opponent in response to an action... IE Thorns.
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_FAILED_LOCALPLAYER" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired when you fail to successfully cast a spell, for one of several reasons. arg1 is the full combat chat text and includes the reason. Examples: You fail to cast Heal: Interrupted. You fail to perform Bear Form: Not enough mana. |
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_FRIENDLYPLAYER_BUFF" | Category: Obsolete Events |

Some examples:
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_FRIENDLYPLAYER_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_HOSTILEPLAYER_BUFF" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired on multiple silly occasions.
Example:
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_HOSTILEPLAYER_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_ITEM_ENCHANTMENTS" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PARTY_BUFF" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PARTY_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Discovered a bug with this event as of v1.8. You can use CHAT_MSG_FRIENDLYPLAYER_DAMAGE to check for "Bob begins to cast Firebolt." However, if Bob joins your party, it does not show up in CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PARTY_DAMAGE as one would expect. It shows up in CHAT_MSG_SPELL_HOSTILEPLAYER_DAMAGE. This seems to only be the case for "begins to cast". Other damage messages properly show up under CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PARTY_DAMAGE.
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_CREATURE_BUFFS" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired when a mob gains an "insta-cast" beneficial effect. arg1 is the full combat chat text. Examples: Mob gains Defensive Stance. Mob gains Rushing Charge. Mob gains Demon Skin.
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_CREATURE_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Example:
Also records other people's DoT's, whether you are grouped or not, in combat or not. |
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_FRIENDLYPLAYER_BUFFS" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired when a non-hostile player gains a "buff" effect.
Examples:
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_FRIENDLYPLAYER_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_HOSTILEPLAYER_BUFFS" | Category: Obsolete Events |
For some weird reason, this event is fired when someone heals yourself or another player, eg "Priest's Flash Heal critically heals you for 2342" Haven't tested any other conditions as of yet.
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_HOSTILEPLAYER_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Indicates afflictions on players which are classified as hostile to the player. Covers ability types such as rend, polymorph, sap etc.
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_PARTY_BUFFS" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Example:
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_PARTY_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_SELF_BUFFS" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired when a buff is cast on self. (Unknown if external buff triggers this).
Example:
Also called for each "tick" of recurring effects, such as "heal-over-time" spells. Example: You gain 10 health from Rejuvenation. --Syllani |
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PERIODIC_SELF_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired (possibly among other times) when you are debuffed - so Disarm, Silenced, etc. I know the name doesn't match, but if you want to verify, enable printing this in your chat log. Get into combat and get debuffed. After combat, scroll back up, and while the debuff message is onscreen, change the chat color of this message, and you will see it change... Very strange. I assume this is named after poisons or diseases, but I haven't actually tested if those trigger this. See CHAT_MSG_SPELL_AURA_GONE_SELF if you want to know when it wears off (both buffs and debuffs). This is accurate as of US Release 1.2.4 (4222), tested by hacking Scrolling Combat Text.
This is also fired during the Gnomish Death Ray's channel. This is indeed triggered by poison / disease. arg1 messages in the form of: "You suffer 3 damage from Scorpid's Poison" or "You are afflicted by Something" come from this event. --Syllani |
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PET_BUFF" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_PET_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_SELF_BUFF" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired when you cast a beneficial spell. arg1 is the full combat chat text. Examples: Your Heal heals you for 50. Your Regrowth critically heals Someguy for 100. UnitHealth(...) is not updated when this event occours, it is possible to determine the exact overheal with something like this: Overheal = HealFromCombatChat - (UnitHealthMax(...) - UnitHealth(...));
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_SELF_DAMAGE" | Category: Obsolete Events |
Fired whenever you cast a harmful spell, be it direct damage or debuff of any kind, be it Warrior's taunt or DoT. arg1 holds the exact same string that is posted to the Combat Log. (eg. "Your Fireball hits Snivvle for 842.") Also fired when your spell does not actually take effect; ie. if it is resisted, or if the target is immune. A "resist" message is "Your Banish was resisted by Felguard Elite." while an "immune" message is of the format "Your Fire Blast failed. Firelord is immune." |
| "CHAT_MSG_SPELL_TRADESKILLS" | Category: Skill |
|
|
| "CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM" | Category: Communication |
|
arg1 formats are found in Blizzard's GlobalStrings.lua. Some possibilities:
Note: Be very careful with assuming when the event is actually sent. For example, "Quest accepted: Quest Title" is sent before the quest log updates, so at the time of the event the player's quest log does not yet contain the quest. Similarly, "Quest Title completed." is sent before the quest is removed from the quest log, so at the time of the event the player's quest log still contains the quest. |

Map_Changed = false; end end When the second function is called, it checks to see if the map has been opened/closed (Map_Changed), then checks to see if the map is currently open (WorldMapFrame). The effect is a code that executes only when the map closes. |
