Mik's Scrolling Battle Text - Changelog

Version 5.2.1

Release Date: August 1, 2026

Changes:

• Updated TBC Anniversary interface version to 20506
  • Updated both MikScrollingBattleText.toc and MSBTOptions.toc
  • Addon now supports Classic (11503), Cataclysm (40400), Retail (110002), and TBC Anniversary (20506)

Version 5.2.0

Release Date: February 3, 2026

Changes:

• Fixed triggers not being saved due to incorrect version number
  • Root cause: The addon has a profile migration system at MSBTProfiles.lua:3463 that deletes all triggers when upgrading from versions prior to 5.2 to prevent incompatible trigger data
  • The version was incorrectly set to 1.0.4, causing the addon to think it was upgrading from an old version every time it loaded, which resulted in all triggers being wiped
  • Changed version from 1.0.4 to 5.2.0 to prevent this destructive migration from running
  • Triggers will now persist correctly between game sessions

Version 1.0.3

Release Date: January 26, 2026

Changes:

• Fixed GitHub Actions workflow syntax error
• Removed README.md from repository
• Corrected TBC Anniversary interface version to 20505 (was incorrectly set to 110205)
  • Updated both MikScrollingBattleText.toc and MSBTOptions.toc with correct interface version
  • Addon now correctly supports Classic (11503), TBC (40400), Retail (110002), and TBC Anniversary (20505)

Version 1.0.2

Release Date: January 26, 2026

Changes:

• Updated interface version to support TBC Anniversary (110205)
  • Added interface version 110205 for compatibility with latest TBC Anniversary client
  • Addon now supports Classic (11503), TBC (40400), Retail (110002), and TBC Anniversary (110205)

Version 1.0

Release Date: 2026

Changes:

• Reduced spam control slider step increments for better TBC compatibility

  • Heal Threshold slider: Changed step increment from 100 to 50
  • Damage Threshold slider: Changed step increment from 100 to 50
  • Power Threshold slider: Changed step increment from 40 to 25

  These changes allow for finer control when setting spam thresholds, making it easier to configure appropriate values for The Burning Crusade servers where damage/healing values are typically much lower than retail.

Installation:

1. Extract both "MikScrollingBattleText" and "MSBTOptions" folders to your World of Warcraft/anniversary/Interface/AddOns/ directory
2. Restart World of Warcraft or type /reload in-game
3. Configure your spam control thresholds in the options menu

Notes:

• This version is optimized for TBC servers
• The spam control thresholds can now be adjusted in increments of 50 for heal/damage and 25 for power, allowing for more precise filtering
