ItemSync
--- A ItemSync update for wow client 4.1.0 is coming the next days! Please be patience! ---
What is ItemSync? ItemSync is an item collection and manipulation mod. ItemSync will gather items from many different sources. Many features are available to you such as a search feature for items that were gathered and even a favorites window to keep track of items you really would like to have. ItemSync also comes bundled with several other useful tools that will be described below.
ItemSync will always maintain an updated list of items and names. Its all automatic and you dont have to do a thing. Just let ItemSync work its magic.
What features do I get with ItemSync? There are tons of features are your disposal! ItemSync comes complete with the following abilities: -Filtering -Search -QuickBag (a portable inventory bag with easy to read item prices) -Favorites (a window to keep track of all those favorite items youve wanted) -ItemID (a window to allow you to manually input item ids for items you havent seen) -Optimizer (a feature that allows you to always keep a clean and efficient database.) -Validater (a feature that allows you to validate those invalid items in your database) -And so much more!!!!
ItemSync will gather items from almost every possible location. This includes locations such as the Auction House, Bank, Inventory, Inspect Window, Chat Window, and more.
ItemSync also stores the prices of items when you visit a Vendor. Not to mention it even grabs the items that the Vendor has to sell!!!
Favorites Window: A neat ability that is available to you when you use ItemSync. It allows you to store those items you come across and have always wanted. The Favorites window makes it easy for you to remember items. No more writing down items and then forgetting what they were called or what stats they had.
QuickBags: QuickBags is a portable inventory bag, which displays prices of items in a simple to read format. No more having to hover items in your bags to view what each item is worth. Selling items to a vendor has never been easier!
Search Window: ItemSync comes with a very power search capability. You can search by items by location, rarity, level, and even resistance.
ItemID: ItemID is a very nifty tool which allows you to manually input items by their item id to your database. This is a great way to add items you havent come across yet. Filtering: ItemSync can store items based upon your filtering settings. Want ItemSync to only collect blue items and above? Its easy with the Filter window. You can even purge the database by a specific rarity.
Fetch Links: Fetch Links is a very handy feature in ItemSync that allows you to quickly and easily add items to chat by using partial names. For example typing [*ore*] in the chat window would replace it with the actual link for [Copper Ore]. Fetch Links is a very powerful tool and has many applications.
Can I see prices of items in the tooltips?
YES! ItemSync has the ability to display both the Vendor Price and the Sell Price for an item within the tooltip. You can select which features you wish to view within the Options window.
Do I ever get disconnected linking an item? You shouldnt ever disconnect while linking an item from ItemSync. ItemSync has been programmed to prevent any such actions from occurring. If however in the event you do disconnect then you should take caution when linking that item in the future. The creator of ItemSync takes no responsibility for any disconnections that may occur while using ItemSync.
Can I see the items across servers? Yes, this option is available to you. It isnt recommended as item ids are different across servers. This means you will always have a constant list of invalid items if you merge them across servers. By default ItemSync separates item collection by server.
Can I convert my data from LootLink/KC_Items/ItemsMatrix?
NO! I repeat NO! This ability has been removed from any future version of ItemSync. This is just to time consuming. If other folks wish to make converters then they are allowed to. I will post links to them as they become available.
If you guys and gals could be so gracious as to spread your views and acknowledgement and acceptance of ItemSync to your friends and family. I would be truely in all your debts.
Also your votes would be truely kind and will repay me for all the work i've put into this mod.
Sincerely Yours, Derkyle
could you add link-typing like this mod has? http://www.curse-gaming.com/mod.php?addid=3226 "Allows you to insert an item link in chat by merely typing its name in brackets. (i.e., type `/g [swift razzashi raptor]` to send a message to your guild with a clickable link for the mount they likely won't see often.)"
That's odd, because when I disable IS, and only IS, my damage text goes back to normal. When I re-enable it, the text is changed. I seemed to have isolated the changing to IS. Any ideas?
@Kiktelos: I'm glad things worked out for you. Don't hesistate to ask questions. It helps to try a few things first before you post though. :) A programmer works best when he has lost his sanity. :)
@Farook: I betcha it's another mod with font files. I used to use a GUI modifier that would do that and my god was it annoying. It wasn't until I got rid of it that things went back to normal. ItemSync doesn't change any font at all.
@sibbor: Sorry =X I hate bots. So I'm afraid it's a no go :)
@Sykokaj: I'm glad you like it. Welcome back to the community.
I loved ItemsMatrix, but switched to KC_items when you didnt update it. Now Im back to ItemSync, its by far the better one! Keep up the good work!
Could you implement a future such as "LootLinkBot" for LootLink, where you can search thorugh the chat. Example: !item of Defense will list all found items with "of Defense" in the title.
Are you sure it's ISync changing your fonts and not another mod?
Just had a short look into the IS-File you can download, and it doesn't contain a single *.ttf-file att all. So it would be quiet amazing if it would change your fonts...
@ Derkyle: Thanks for working so hard on this... especially on the german localization. :)
Thanks for the answer, well I changed my addons folder as I was waiting in queue for Mug'thol and didn't relog back since, sry about that ;). We're getting 1000+ queues each night so didn't want to exit the game and end up waiting for 2 hours >_>
@Kiktelos: Let me guess.... hmmmmm you did /console reloadui didn't you? Yep yep you did. Your going to have to exit wow and go back in.
For the millionth time people. Don't use /console reloadui. It doesn't always load all of a mods components. If a mod has added new files to it. You won't be able to access those files unless you exit wow and go back in. In this instance I added two new files. A general one and an updated clean one. This is why you folks keep getting this error.
Hello, I've used Lootlink for quite some time and switched to ItemSync. This mod is great and got amazing features. Keep up the good work :)
Since 10.2, nothing happens when I click on the "General" or "Clean" buttons.
Also I don't know if it's possible to include a "lock option" for the main frame position or make that it "moves" like other windows when another is open (dunno if that's clear enough)
Thank you
I still would like to know how to make it so ItemSync does not change my damage text font, can anyone help me?
WRT the problem Highend is having: He's using the German client as one may see on the screenshot he linked. But there are a lot of people using the English client on these servers. There would be an easy way for you to solve his problem: don't use the name that comes with the link since it may come from a client using a different language than the user does (hyperlinks are sent in the language of the user's client sending them and won't be localized). Instead use the name GetItemInfo returns. If it doesn't return a name because of the client not having the item in it's cache, yet, simply store the itemid to be reprocessed later and request a hidden tooltip from the server. This won't disconnect the client since you know from the link that the item is valid but it will instead cache that item so that later GetItemInfo will return the localized name. I had a lot of 'fun' with such problems when I wrote my ItemDB so maybe this information will be usefull to you, too.
So damn good this addon! LOOVE IT!!!1111 and that much updates, never seen before !! U RULE !!
You got it Nakoruru. I will add it to my todo list for next patch. Don't expect it today though. There won't be anymore patches for today. I think three is enough lol.
btw I like to use "/is search" very much, but "search" is really too long, may you add someother command like "/is s" to search faster please? :D
I know I was impatient, I'm not blaming you for my impatience :) I'll give you whatever information I still can that might help you, just let me know.
Cherish don't give up like that. I need to know what's going on if I'm to fix anything. I will look and check what could have caused that. I'm sorry you purged your database but you could have waited till I came out with a fix for it. Like I mentioned before there was a flaw in the database that was marking many things as valid when they weren't. This is only a few of the problems that was in the database. Now it's been fixed and there shouldn't be a problem anymore with any search routines and such.
I did an optimize and clean. It now initially tells me I have 85 valid and 151 invalid items. But when I click on the Show Invalid Items option, it says I have 1742 invalid items. My database has around 1800 items in it.
Then I got impatient and did a purge invalid items and lost basically my entire database, so this is now a moot point for me. sigh. Well, maybe this will help someone else.
English client.
@Cherish: What lang client are you using? There was some severe problems with the german and chn,tzw client that were fixed. This is what was causing these crazed disconnections.
I'm using the English client.
Argh I hate these comment boxes. Keep overwriting stuff!
