The Addon

Dkpboard.com uses Headcount as addon to get the raids' information. The main developer of HeadCount is seppyk, and we thank his great work.

How I install the addon?

It's quite easy, as the rest of WoW's addons. After downloading Headcount from dkpboard.com/download, unzip it and copy the contain to /Interface/Addons/ inside your World of Warcraft instalation

The next time you launch WoW, ensure that Headcount is activated together with the other addons.

Where is Headcount?

icon

You will find Headcount in the mini-map, represented by a skull, as you can see in the image above. If you wish to see Headcount's whole options, or move this icon, you will see a tooltip with all the actions passing your mouse over the skull.

Which options has Headcount?

Headcount has a complete configuration, accessible from the mini-map

What to do before starting

We recommend first of all to adjust the hour time zone in the Time section, and to check the Export Format (it must be dkpboad).

Once the raid is finished, you must export the raid with the correct format and upload the code in your Administration Panel.

I'd wish to register more items and not only Epic Quality ones. How I do it?

In the Loot section you can indicate the minimun quality of the registered items. Usually epic quality items or higher are the only ones to be registered, but if you wish to include other, you have the option.

How I configure the which groups are in raid and which ones in queue?

Headcount allows you to select which groups are in queue and which ones are in raid, as you can see in the following images, configuring it is too easy.

Where can I find the raids I have made o the Active Raid?

Clicking the skull in the mini-map will show you a menu as you can see in the image below. From there you can consult all the information achieved by the addon (Raid, assistants, bosskills, loots...)

How can I assign dkps to the items obtained in a raid?

Every time an item is given in a raid with Headcount activated, a new window like the one you can see above, will appear asking how many dkp cost has that item, the player who gained it and the Boss who dropped it.

In that window you can assign if the item goes for the Bank or if it will be disenchanted.

How can I export a raid?

Very easy, from the raids window, select the raid you wish to export, check that it is finished and press the export button.

A new window will appear like the following, with the XML code which summarizes the raid's activity. Simply copy that text and paste it in the New Raid section in your Administration Panel

I have erased the text! Have I lost everything?

Don't worry, you only have to press again the export button and the code will appear one more time.
