Hey guys I was disappointed to see Combat Cloud wasn't working after the DB patch, but its rather easy to fix so I figured I'd share the info here.

Hey guys, got a temporary fix for this. I made some other minor (and also lazy) changes to the LUA files for this to allow you to set different string formats for Critical Hots and Critical Dots.

I personally like to have my normal damage/healing numbers formated with the Name of the Ability + Number of Damage/Healing, but for the dots I like to keep them a little smaller and out of the way and all I want to see is the actual number and an "!" if it crit. This slightly modified version allows you to set a new format string for Critical Dots & Hots. Critical Dots and Hots will now use the standard damage/healing font sizes instead of the Critical font size now too. I personally set mine at 16 (dot/hot), 20 (heal/damage), and 24 (critical) so this works well for me. Sorry for not making it perfect but I'm no LUA expert and I've got this working with no issue so I'm just gonna leave it alone. ALSO, critical color override is disabled for this as I didn't feel like racking my brain to modify the new if/else statements to support it.

==========================================================================

Instructions to fix the addon yourself if you don't want to download my modified version:

1. Download CombatCloud and extract it into your ESO addons folder.
2. Open CombatCloud.lua in the CombatCloud base folder with a text editing program, its easier to do with a program that supports word wrap so the lines are spaced properly.
3. Scroll down until you find a selection called "--Event Listeners"
4. Remove the following 2 lines:
CombatCloud_PointsExperienceEventListener:New()
CombatCloud_PointsVeteranEventListener:New()
5. Save the .lua file and close.
6. (Optionally if you want to clean up) Remove Points_Experience.lua & Points_Veteran.lua from CombatCloud\Core\EventListeners\
7. Enjoy the best SCT addon working again!

*Note: I'm not 100% sure if the Alliance Points Listener is working currently either, but the addon seems to run okay with it still in there. You can remove this one too if you don't care about seeing Alliance Point gain.

    Quick update 6/3/2016, new format fields for crit hot/dot were referencing the wrong strings in the menu, causing entry fields to show incorrectly despite it successfully changing the string on user input. Fixed that.
