ACT

Me and my guildie who run ACT have been having quite a few problems with it lately. It seems the numbers are very far off from what they normally are. The cntrl-v to paste it hasn't been working. Sometimes you will see a lower parse higher up then someone with a higher parse... ex. Omex-2230 Ral 2622. When the paste does work the numbers from the paste are different than the numbers on the screen.

We have uninstalled and redownloaded about 6 times each as well. If anyone has anything for me, let me know. Thanks

Can't explain all of it, but when you paste the parse into chat and it's out of order, it's because you have the columns in ACT sorted by something other than extDPS

For the change: possible that you and the other people in your guild have a different setting to determine the end of an encounter, what are yours set to?

This can happen iirc when you sort the GUI by DPS, but paste Ext-DPS (or vice versa).

The export to clipboard is effected by the General Options: Text Only Formating and it can be different than how your GUI is sorted in ACT. For your "out of order pastes" I'd suggest that is the likely problem.

As far as different parse numbers, I have also seen this when we have fights that are spread out so the parses are only catching combat from part of the fight or part of the raid members. If you are seeing this when the fight is all up close and personal, then I'm not sure, though the previous suggestion of checking how you have set combat to end is a good one.

The log does have a distance in it so you don't always pick up other people when you are spread out. As for columns yes you need to change sorting in ACT.

Only problem I have seen lately is the spell timers being way off, 3-4 of us will have completely different numbers. We just have been blaming it on all the lag in some zones. Especially when everyone is in the loot pinata of Protectors realm, get 4-5 raids in there at once and it is horrible.
