OK Guys, i try to do a quick translation of my HowTo from the German Board.
The Goal is have as less work as possible importting a Raid from CTRT.
After te Import you should have ONE Raid matching oen of youtr EVENTS and a Commentfield in which you can see all the Bosses you killed so the Boss Suite cann pick that up to show your Progress correctly.
A few things to start with.
you need a aAid tracker that recognizes all the Instances and Boss. Check after each Boss, whether the loot ist assoziated correctly, otherwise you have to change ist after looting.
The newest verion of the MLDP RT should do the trick.
it can be found
here (1.7.2)
Another Version is my modded version of teh MLDKP 1.5.7 which can be found
here (It is tested and works with the german client, let me know if something is wrong with the english client)
Next step ist to make sure that all Instances and their Bosses are assigned to the corresponding EVENTS.
Little parenthesis regarding WotLK:
Since WotLK all "big" Intsanzes have e Version for 10 (Normal) and 25 people (heroic), therefor you have to distinguish between them. I did it by creating to verisons for each EVENT:
Naxxramas 10
Naxxramas 25
Vault of Archavon 10
Vault of Archavons 25
Eye of Eternity 10
Eye of Eternity 25
Obsidian Sanctum 10
Obsidian Sanctum 25
You can stick with that or think of soemthing else like Naxxramas Hero and ANxxramas Normal or whatever you like, but it recomend someting short, as right now the CTRT Import Module is not able to distinguish between the two difficulties by itself, so this is the only thing ou have to do when importing a String from the CTRT.
What you wanna do now ist to create Raid Note Trigger and Event Trigger, that look into the String from teh Raidtracker and extract the Info from it an enter ist in the correct postion.
You could do that manually or import my Trigger, but in this case you have to stick with my naming of the events. In case you have named your EVENTS different and want to stick with it make sure you changed teh Event Name in my Trigger before importing them (STRG+R in an editor would be an easy way to do that).
In case you wanna do the easy way import my Triggers

If you imported everything correctly and renamed all your EVENTS matching the Names in the Trigger the next time you import a String from teh raidtracker you should see a Raid
Named "Naxxramas" and see all the Bosses killed in the Commets Field.
Now it is Time to use your Brain (dont worry this isn't to hard and it ist the only time you have to do that). As i metioned before the Import Plugin is cant see wheter it was a 10 or 25 people Raid, therefore we have to do that.
Right now the Raid is called "Naxxramas" but our EVENTS are called "Naxxramas 10" or Naxxramas 25" so just add the " 10" or " 25" to the Raidname an click "Import Raid".
Worst case is the you forget to do that and the Raidname stays Naxxramas, as a resilt the DKP wont count as there is no EVENT with that Name conected to the DKP accounts. In that Case just edit the Raid and choose the correct EVENT from the Drop down menu.
In case you are using DKP only for 25 people Instances you can forget about the "Naxxramas 10" and "Naxxramas 25" Events and Name your Event "Naxxramas" an you dont have to do anything manually.
For those of you who want to know what they just did:
the Trick is to create a new Event for Each boss, but as all teh Events of bosses from one Instance have the same Name (e. Naxxramas) it will be only one Raid created, the raid note Trigger is here to put teh name of the boss in a short form in the Raid comment, so the boss suite can do its thing. Just make sure teh Name of the Trigger matches the string from the boss suite.
Hope this helps you guys
note:
this is just quick and dirty and will for sure have lots of typos, but i hope everyone understand the essentials. So feel free to correct my Typos and put this in the WIKI
