I like the emotes one, as they have cleverly not used the names for a lot of the standard emotes in other games.

Topbar (http://forums.thesecretworld.com/showthread.php?t=45461) - Addon: Shows current system time, FPS, latency, pax romana, coordiantes in the topbar. All options toggable.

This also has a dps meter (just as effective as the mod DPS meter) but it's not moveable - it's locked into the top left of the topbar

there should be a little padlock, if it's unlocked you can move it.

As far as I can tell, MainMenuWindowX (http://www.secretui.com/downloads/info17-MainMenuWindowX.html) is the one with the DPS readout on the left-hand side.  Topbar (http://www.secretui.com/downloads/info24-TopbarInformationOverload.html) doesn't have that, but is otherwise very similar.

Is there a way to just use the dps part, I like the topbar better otherwise.

That was it, thanks! I still would prefer to see groupwide dps, but for solo performance MMWX/DPS mod does the trick.


As for only the DPS part that is where the DPS mod comes in that Calapine linked, found here (http://www.secretui.com/downloads/info29-DamageMeter.html)

www.secretui.com is a solid place for addons, otherwise Curse has an addon site running for TSW.

It takes a lot of tweaking, but Custom UI (http://www.secretui.com/downloads/info43-CustomUI.html) is pretty nice for moving around the bits of your UI that are in terrible places. Most specifically I mean your weapon resources, which I've always wanted to be on my target or up near my character. With Custom UI, I can move those around like I want, it just takes a little in-game adjustments, then placing the right variables in a login_prefs.xml file.

MainMenuWindowX has a major framerate/slowdown/stuttering issue in regards to aoes due to it's dps meter.  If you're using it and seem to having problems with multi-mob pulls or defend missions, this might be the culprit.

Thanks for this, I wonder how the DPS mod handles it and if it has the same slow down. I do notice massive slowdown during AOE bits, figured it was my crappy PC

These guys seem to have guides for pretty much every mission/dungeon in the game, or at least they always show up when I google a mission.

Yah, they're how I stay sane during investigation missions.
