If anyone has this lurking in the back corner of their hard drive somewhere, let me know and I'll send my email, thanks!
EDIT: Didn't realize it was not public domain. I know that a few folks do have it, my bad assumption.

I don't think Zyrca ever released this source code to the public.

According to Zyrca's site it was never released as open source, and the source code was not made available. So if anyone has it then probably Zyrca gave it to them with instructions not to distribute.

You were using all the options available in Combater? I never did so I'm not sure what they are. Please list them out for me.

If I remember correctly, Kaltemar is who now 'owns'/maintains combater. I don't think there has been any update regarding if it will be updated for ToD or not, and the website is down ( www.kaltemartech.com ) so I am doubting it will be updated.

Kaltemar took over Combater and led it down a very different path, many folks including me were not happy with what he did with it.
I'd like to see the original Combater simply updated to work with the latest Decal.
Maddy, if I could launch Combater to make you that list I wouldn't be posting here, heh. I can look it up, I'm sure there is a feature list or a screenshot somewhere. But if you're about to make us a 'new Combater' you will need and run into that information anyway.
Features that come to mind off the top of my head are modifications of the kill message - you could toggle XP for the kill, kills to level, XP to level, etc. It would split peas for you when you ran low, and you could preset the level at which peas would be split. (yes, some of us still use the old comps for very good reasons). It had several ways to filter spellwords and change colors of spells you cast. It had a )now defunct) feature that would translate spellwords into comps for that spell - not needed anymore of course with no spell research.
There are other features that escape me now, but I'm sure the info is out there. Bottom line is that it was a very simple little plugin that was extremely useful.

<< I'd like to see the original Combater simply updated to work with the latest Decal. >>
I doubt that will happen.
You'll probably have to make a request (or write a plugin yourself) for a plugin to do this and hope someone runs with it. I'm going to do one that is a step above Hush! and has more combat related stuff. It will probably alert on low comps, no plans to split peas in it though. Probably have XP per hour tracking, total kills, some basic stuff like that.

You could always send Kaltemar a PM on VN. He's around.

loved this plugin
some other features that it had:
when you clicked on an item with mana, it told the the %age mana left.
on comp burn, it would tell you how many tapers, plats you had left, instead of just, component consumed: taper, or hwatever.
Monster xp
track all xp change (everytime a fellow gets a kill, it shows how much you get, or even from vassal passup)
filter bot spam emotes and stuff too I think
Also, Pulp fiction was pretty much the same as combater
thats all I remember
edit: Kills to next level

As above, all great features that I dont really see all-together in one plugin anymore, some plugins may have some of the functionality im sure, but combateur seemed to have everything I was looking for.
I would be more than happy to help testing if it means we can get something running very simmilar to what the combateur of old used to provide the AC'er.
I'm not a programmer though so im only of use as a crash test dummie really 
If I can help though please let me know
