SimulationCraft
Last wiki revision 2023-11-06
SimulationCraft is a fan-created external tool designed to simulate raid dps and tps.
Here is the description from the Google Code project site: ''SimulationCraft is a tool to explore combat mechanics in the popular MMO RPG World of Warcraft (tm).
It is a multi-player event driven simulator written in C++ that models raid damage and threat generation.
Increasing class synergy and the prevalence of proc-based combat modifiers have eroded the accuracy of traditional calculators that rely upon closed-form approximations to model very complex mechanics. The goal of this simulator is to close the accuracy gap while maintaining a performance level high enough to calculate relative stat weights to aid gear selection.
SimulationCraft allows raid/party creation of arbitrary size, generating detailed reports for both individual and raid performance. Currently, it is a command-line tool in which the player profiles are specified via parameter files.''
