I am a one of the GM’s of a Warcraft guild, we have been using the EQDKP-Plus system for a few years now.

Since the launch of Cataclysm, we wanted to streamline our DKP system abit, so we moved from a Boss Kill system, to a Time based system where we are awarding DKP per hour instead of per Boss. Thankfully the Warcraft community has a lot of skilled developers creating addons that help manage this task, but after a few months of playing round with CT_RaidTracker and the newer Mizus RaidTracker we still couldn’t find something that worked for us.

Either the addons did not quite do exactly what we wanted, or more importantly, if the person running the addon was to crash – then all the raid data would be lost.

So I decided write my own application for keeping track of raids, and Importing them into EQDKP-Plus. After exchanging a few messages with Hoofy on the Raidlogimport & CTRT forum I finally managed to get it working. Originally the intention was just to use it for our own guild, but one of my fellow GM’s suggested it might also be of some use to the rest of the Warcraft/EQDKP-Plus community. So I sent an email to Corgan, and he asked me to make a post here with some screenshots and a description.

It is a .NET application, so you will need the .NET framework installed in order to run it.

Basicaly, it records how long each raider has been in the raid for - you can stop and start each individual as required. You can add loot to them, even fetch their current DKP values from your EQdkpPlus website if you have configured it. It can add a bonus amount of DKP for being ontime at the start of the raid - as well as a DKP bonus for attending a specified percentage of the entire raid duration.

You can also use it to generate a Raid-Log-Import compataible XML export of the raid, so you can easily enter all the raider DKP earnt and loot assignments onto your website.

Finally I added alitte feature so it can make a "DKP Decay" raid, where it can create a raid of individual adjustments of a specific percentage to everyone's DKP.

I believe Corgan will be adding a download link in the download section of the website for those that are interested in trying it out.

It doesn't look like Corgan has gotten round to adding it to the download page yet, and as a few people have been contacting me in warcraft about it, I can just post a direct download link here for those that were interested.
