I got that too, press the button and 'nothing'.
Doesn't work here. I get an error though: It can't identify the Quilen Mount or Pet from the collectors edition.
This happened with me as well. Once I opened up my spellbook then it started working. Seems like the addon might have a trigger to not activate until it's seen the spellbook once even though the mounts/pets aren't listed there anymore.
I am getting a message:
Error: Pet with ID 95909 not in database.
I found him on wowhead:
http://www.wowhead.com/spell=95909/moonkin-hatchling
Error: Mount with ID 124659 not in database.
This is http://www.wowhead.com/spell=124659 the new Imperial Quilen mount from MoP collectors edition (yes, I spent the extra tennner...)
Love the addon, has helped me find the last few pets I need.
It is currently missing the Obsidian Nightwing, ID 121820, the new RAF mount.
Some suggestions:
Similar to Ackis Recipe List, I would love to see tabs at the bottom of the display so that the items can be arranged based on acquisition method, such as mob drops, zone drops, achievements, vendors, etc. I find that very useful in ARL and think it would be very useful here also. Would be nice to be able to only look at pets that I have to farm in zones or ones that I have missed buying from a vendor.
I would also suggest adding two other categories of collections, in addition to pets and mounts...those being tabards and titles. I collect those also and would be nice to see those integrated into this addon, as I'm sure I'm not the only one. I realize that it might be a bit tricky with tabards, since they are items usually kept in banks or void storage (maybe just go off of the ones that get equipped, using the equipped tabard achievement as a basis), but still figured I would toss it out there.
We plan on rewriting the addon, however there's no ETA. And we also are going to see if MoP deems Collectinator obsolete or if we could integrate Collectinator somehow with the MoP changes to pets and mounts. We'll see.
Nice work, gotta catch 'em all !
Will help me make my own zoo and role-play with my pets... thx! :)
Does this work across characters? I.e. will it show that your other toon already has the mount this toon does not have?
No it doesn't.
I noticed none of the argent crusade mounts (like darkspear raptor) show up even if i dont own that mount. I am afraid other mounts are also missing. I tried turing off/on all filters it still wont show up
No issues here. hmm.
Collectinator: Error: Mount with ID 10793 not in database
Collectinator: Error: Mount with ID 23219 not in database
Why?
Dunno. You are Alliance right? Those two mounts are definitely in the database. Was this character originally Alliance and faction transfered to Horde?
Cool addon, love it, when I first got it couldn't find the "scan" button (thought I had to go to interface and hit scan with the companion/mount window open). Would there be a way to show a picture where it's at or send a message to the player telling where? Thanks :)
It's in the spellbook and u show the companions or mounts tab.
Says Wood Frog is obtained from a Vendor named Flik in Terrokar Forest. He's actually spawn of Darkmoon Faire.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or if it's just not working, but when I open my pets or mounts tab and click scan, nothing happens. I just installed it and I'm not sure what's wrong. Any advice?
Is there a way to ignore specific mounts/pets, instead of just whole sections in the filter menu?
For example, I'm not an Engineer or Tailor so I can't get any of the Flying Machines or Flying Carpets... But if I check the "Crafted" filter option it takes out ALL profession mounts...which I don't want it to do, since I have Fishing and Archaeology and can still obtain the Turtle and Raptor mounts from those.
