Loving Cowtip, but the main reason I decided to spring for a tip addon was ArkInventory. All the tips there are attached to the mouse.

Can Cowtip grab those, or is there another way? Tips flying in my face while browsing my bags is killing me. :P

Thanks!

Thanks!

is there any way to show how much life like walls or things like that have??
ie
wintergrasp or ioc?
thanks

Few people have asked but I haven't seen an answer yet. Gonna get rid of CowTip soon as I find a solution that includes walls and door health. Was using TinyTip but it errors out on Catapults and the new IoC Glaive Throwers.

I like very much CowTip, so I played with the LUA files and I finally found out to show that damn health bars for walls and doors. Here what you have to do:
- Open the HealthBar.lua file in corrisponding dir
- Search for this function (about line 103):
function CowTip_HealthBar:OnEnable(first)
- Inside that function, replace:

_G.GameTooltipStatusBar:Hide()
self:AddScriptHook(GameTooltipStatusBar, "OnShow", function(this) this:Hide() end)

WITH

_G.GameTooltipStatusBar:Show()

- Save the file and you've done :)

This trick works for me on every wall and door i found (WG, Uldar & IoC).

Hope this help you all and sorry for my english :P

Anyone else notice this uses a lot of CPU?

i have noticed it also. sometimes, it'll double the memory usage of recount which is often the biggest memory hog

I am finding CowTip to be extremely CPU intensive lately, to the point that I cannot raid with it installed. I downloaded an addon profiler and CowTip is using more CPU time than all my other addons combined. CPU usage goes up the more combat events are being delivered to my client, to the point where a boss fight in a 25 man raid brings my framerate down from 60 to about 10.

Is there any way to add blizzard equipment set information to the tooltip please? Been trying to find a way to do this with no success :(

Use ClosetGnome with the ClosetGnome Tooltips and you can get that info added to the tooltips (ClosetGnome uses the built in equipment manager).

I just grabbed the new LibRockConfig from here http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/librockconfig-1-0.aspx

and replaced the one in cowtip's lib directory and it seems to be working for me now. FYI - I did this also for Fubar as well.

For some reason, I can't access where I go to customize this. /cowtip only brings up donation, enable, and disable. Only recently started doing this. Any suggestions?

Is this addon gonna be abandoned by author or should i get my hopes up that it will get updated? :)

Stuff like questhelper objectives not being shown in the tooltip and 3.2 around the corner, it would be nice to hear whether or not I should go look for something else when patch hits =)
