arcdps_individual_dps

ArcDPS extension. Restores per-player combat clocks after the April 14, 2026 arcdps update collapsed every fight stat onto a single squad-wide clock. Each row pauses on CBTS_EXITCOMBAT, resumes on CBTS_ENTERCOMBAT.

Download

New to GitHub? Click the green button above, then download arcdps_individual_dps.dll from the Assets list on the release page.

After the first install it updates itself: the plugin checks GitHub Releases on load and arcdps downloads + reloads the DLL whenever a newer version exists.

Features

• Per-player damage / DPS table — EMA-smoothed live DPS column, active-damage- window denominator (matches arcdps Damage (excl)), click headers to sort
• Per-self fight boundaries — squadmates entering / leaving combat don't reset your row
• Fight history — the last 5 fights are kept; right-click a player row to step back through them
• Colored per-player damage bars, profession icons, optional gold self-name and pin-self-to-top
• Click a row → detail window: DPS-over-time graph with smoothed / cumulative / average / burst overlay layers (toggle each from the legend), crosshair tooltip, and a per-skill breakdown sorted by damage
• Cleanses / Strips side windows
• Down-contribution window — damage to enemy players up to the moment they go down, plus the count of downs you personally landed the finishing hit on
• Post-update banner — one-shot notice after arcdps swaps in a new build
• Layout — responsive columns, lockable windows, screen-relative positioning, window opacity slider (0.10 – 1.00)
• NPC / Gadget exclusion filters
• Right-click menu + arcdps options-panel tab; settings persist to arcdps_individual_dps.ini

Install

1. Build (below) or grab a release.
2. Drop arcdps_individual_dps.dll next to d3d11.dll in <GW2>/addons/arcdps/.
3. Verify under arcdps options → Extensions.

PNG icons are embedded. File-fallback path: <GW2>/addons/individual_dps_icons/.

Build

MSVC x64, CMake 3.20+, VS 2022 Build Tools.

cmake -S . -B build -A x64
cmake --build build --config Release

Output: build/Release/arcdps_individual_dps.dll.

FetchContent pulls Dear ImGui v1.92.7 to match arcdps. Bump the tag in CMakeLists.txt if arcdps moves — mismatched ImGui versions corrupt shared context. Local tree alternative:

cmake -S . -B build -A x64 -DIMGUI_DIR=C:/path/to/imgui

MSVC runtime is statically linked — no VC++ redistributable needed on the target machine.

Behavior

• Combat time = first credited damage → last credited damage (extended to now while in combat). Not combat-flag duration.
• Implicit-enter — if arc skips CBTS_ENTERCOMBAT, the first self-source strike opens a fight. Pets / minions / condi ticks extend an active fight but cannot cold-start one. Idle >5 s outside an encounter log counts as a fight boundary.
• Damage filter — strikes with BLOCK/EVADE/INTERRUPT/ABSORB/BLIND are dropped. Otherwise ev->value > 0 only.
• Down contribution — per-target tally accumulates per attacker while target is up. On CBTR_DOWNED (or first is_offcycle == 1 event), the tally drains into damage_to_downed for every attacker, and the down itself (downs_contributed) is credited to exactly one player — the owner of the event that flipped the target into downstate (the finisher for CBTR_DOWNED; for the offcycle fallback, almost always the downing strike/tick's owner). CBTS_CHANGEDOWN carries no attacker identity and credits no down. Cleave-on-downed is excluded. Player targets only (elite != 0xFFFFFFFF).
• Strips / Cleanses — counted from CBTS_BUFFREMOVE_ALL events (is_buffremove == CBTB_ALL), filtered by hardcoded boon / condition ID lists.
• combat_local is null — arc fires identical payloads on both combat and combat_local; routing both double-counts.

Network

• winhttp GET to api.github.com/repos/iTroy0/arcdps_individual_dps/releases/latest on plugin load (synchronous, ~2 s timeout). No telemetry, no other endpoints.
• arcdps performs the actual update download when get_update_url returns a URL.
