Another request (lol): Some damage entries (when the NPC deals 0 (0) damage) are causing the resist calculation to give weird values (namely, -2147483648%). Normally I don't care, but this is apparently causing problems for SQL export. Can the resist be defined as something more sensible in these cases? 0%, 100%, I don't care, but the value above is causing problems.
9:34:32 PM] Data calculated for [Gravitar] in 2 secs.
[9:34:33 PM] ERROR [HY000] [MySQL][ODBC 5.3(w) Driver][mysqld-5.5.40]Data too long for column 'resistperc' at row 1
It seems the last ACT update made the paser no longer work, there is no data of any kind being displayed. The NW parser seems to currently work as a temporary replacement, but it only gives very minimal DPS information.
I'm trying this and I'm either doing it wrong or it is not working. I followed all the setup instructions. It does seem to be reading my combat log, but nothing is showing up in the table. Is it still working?

The version you need to download is 3.1.5.246
You can find that on the website of ACT under Versions.
Download the file, drag it to your ACT folder.
Run the file, and do the setup as OP has said and it should start working again.
I'm getting the message "No combatants with compatible data to graph... Try another sorting method."
When I look at the Options tab, the "At Position:" readout reliably increases during /combatlog 1, and stops increasing after /combatlog 0, so it's certainly reading the log.
I'm getting this problem with both the latest ACT version, and version 3.1.5.246.

Never tried a parser before but would like to give it a go. I've got a 64 bit system. Which program works for that? Where can I find it? Where can I find the instructions for setting it up running it? Such noob questions, I know. Forbearance please.
Setting up Advanced Combat Tracker for Champions Online
This guide will provide you with instructions on how to install and configure Advanced Combat Tracker with Version 2.3.0 of quasimojo's plug-in to enable it to parse combat log information from Champions Online in real-time.
Download the installer for Advanced Combat Tracker here and run it.
Download the version 3.2.2.252 update file for ACT here. Place the version 3.2.2.252 update file in the same installation folder as ACT and then run it. The folder is usually located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Advanced Combat Tracker".
Download v2.3.0 of the plug-in here. I recommend placing the plug-in file in the same installation folder as ACT.
Run "ACTx86.exe" from ACT's installation folder.
In the Plugins tab, browse for the file "CO-ACTLib.dll" and click Open. Click Add/Enable Plugin.
Launch Champions Online, use the command "/combatlog 1" in the chat window, and then attack an enemy.
In the Options tab under Miscellaneous, click Open Log. Browse to where your combat log files are located, select the most recent combat log, then click Open.
If you are running Champions Online from Steam, logs will be located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Champions Online\Champions Online\Live\logs\GameClient"
If you are running Champions Online from Arc, logs will be located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Champions Online\Champions Online_en\Champions Online\Live\logs\GameClient"
Data should now show up in the Main tab.
There are a lot options to change how the data appears and you can even have an overlay in game showing you the DPS of nearby friends or foes as well as some buff, debuff, or cooldown timers as seen here at the top of my screen.
Hope you all find this helpful. Made this guide (not the parser or the plugin) so that I wouldn't have to repeat the same explanation to those who came to me looking for help with the program. If you're still having problems with setting this stuff up, give me a tell @behemothking#9246 and I'll try my best to assist you.
Since CO likes to make new log files a lot and I am to lazy to check for new files all the time I made a small batch script to do that for me. I you are lazy like that, create 2 text files in your ACT folder, 1 bat file with a random name ("CO live ACT.bat" or something like that, and you can of course make a second batch file for PTS), and 1 file named "sleep.js".
In the bat file add (you have to change the "path to your CO folder").
set LOGDIR=C:\path to your CO folder\Champions Online\live\logs\GameClient
set LOGPAR=%LOGDIR:~0,2%
set SCRIPTDIR=%~dp0
set SCRIPTPAR=%SCRIPTDIR:~0,2%
%LOGPAR%
CD %LOGDIR%
FOR /F "delims=|" %%I IN ('DIR "Combat*.log" /B /O:D') DO SET NewestFile=%%I
:ACT
taskkill /f /im ACTx86.exe
set CURRENTLOG=%NewestFile%
%SCRIPTPAR%
CD %SCRIPTDIR%
start ACTx86.exe -log "%LOGDIR%\%CURRENTLOG%"
:CHECKLOG
%LOGPAR%
CD %LOGDIR%
cscript /nologo "%SCRIPTDIR%sleep.js" 5000
FOR /F "delims=|" %%I IN ('DIR "Combat*.log" /B /O:D') DO SET NewestFile=%%I
SETLOCAL
tasklist | find "ACTx86.exe"
If %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 (goto :stop)
If /I "%NewestFile%"=="%CURRENTLOG%" (goto :CHECKLOG) else (goto :ACT)
:stop
In the sleep.js file add: WScript.Sleep( WScript.Arguments( 0 ) );
Is there a list of names I should paste into the "Custom Boss NPC List" I can get somewhere? I dunno what it is but I feel like whenever my combat log is running now with ACT on I'm getting some serious framerate drops, don't know if incorrect names has anything to do with it.
If the parse ask for an update, don't. It seem to mess up the program and you have to reinstall it. Well for me, but I don't know about the rest of you.

The parser model is a 32 bit library, and ACT got updated to 64 bit a while ago, which breaks any 32 bit libraries. The source exists (I forget where) if someone with an appropriate compiler wants to update it (I think it's C-sharp code).

I've now done just that. With the plugin linked below you will be able to use the latest version of ACT to parse the log files.

I have also updated the Parser Usage Guide linked in my signature with the new file.
