Archon App: Auto Logging
Setting up logging can be confusing! Annoying! And once you've set everything up, it can still be so easy to forget!
If you can relate, the newest Archon App feature might be for you.
What is Auto Logging?
Our question while developing Auto Logging was simple: how can we make logging easier? While some games have in-game settings that a player needs to enable themselves, we did find that we could add additional automation on our end! We decided on a system where you decide on what content you'd like to upload, under what conditions, and where the logs should be uploaded. We're calling these "Upload Rules", and you set them ahead of time.
Once set up, your logging process will be fully automated!
Note: At the time of writing, Auto Logging only supports Warcraft, Fellowship, and Final Fantasy. Additionally, it only supports complete raids that start on bosses, not trash. This is actively being worked on!
How to Use Auto Logging
Setting this feature up is quick and easy! Remember, this is an Archon App feature, so you'll want to install the app first.
Navigate to the Logging tab on the left-side app menu. Then, from the top menu, select Auto Log.
Enable Auto-logging by clicking the switch on.
- Click "Upload Rules" to choose what type of content will be logged.
- Fill out the settings to specify what content should be uploaded, and where. You can create multiple rules to satisfy multiple conditions! For example, you may want to upload some content types to a Guild, and other content types as Private Personal logs.
- Check out Report Description Templates, a new way to specify a template that will automatically title your reports!
In-game Auto Logging Addon
World of Warcraft has no automatic logging settings. Instead, you must type /combatlog each time you want to log.
Always forget? There is now an in-game addon available with the Archon App to do this for you! Download this addon using the switch in the Auto Log tab. The addon will turn on combat logging in-game for you.
This addon will:
- Enable Logging when you enter a dungeon/raid
- Detect and warn you about multiple addons interfering with logging
