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
Revision: 32104 Author: derkyle - Updated SVN Keywords. It wasn't working properly. The version number for ItemSync should be correct now when you open the main window in game.
Revision: 32049 Author: derkyle - Fixed: A nil error that was being displayed when trying to add items to your favorites list. - Update: Fetch Links has been improved by Dracula from WOWInterface.com. It will now properly return items you input and not just the first one it finds. Use [ ] for exact item matches only, and keep [* *] for a pattern match, ie. partial item search. Special thanks to Dracula all credit goes to him for the update.
@Marsti: The files that are uploaded here are directly grabbed from the SVN at files.wowace.com. Please keep in mind it takes some times before any updates are put into a zip file for the current revision at files.wowace.com it's not instant. The SVN zip up the current version about once every hour.
However it has come to my attention that the revision increment is not being displayed -in game-. I will fix this issue thank you for pointing it out. I assure you the files are up to date.
Why is the revision here higher than the revision at files.wowace - but files in the archive here at cg are older o.O?
Please remember you can always get the latest version of ItemSync at (http://files.wowace.com/)
Major Update: Kirson has repaired the issue with items have zero stats. Full credit goes towards him for patching up ItemSync. A special thank you to you Kirson on my behalf.
Revision: 30597 Author: derkyle - _removeNegative was edited to return kirson's function rather then the old one. This was done to allow modders to update their mod that use this function. It will be removed in the future. - Update: Minor update to German Localization for the word Thrown, changed to Wurfwaffe. (Maischter82) - Update: Fixed an issue where the Bag Check and Inven Check wasn't resetting properly. - Update: Added a check to see if the item that was updated was an ammo item. If this returns true then the bags and or equipment isn't scanned. This was implemented to help decrease lag. - Added: German Notes to TOC [Rene Hunkel (Bashman)] - Updated: German Localization [Rene Hunkel (Bashman)] - Added: Revision checks to all files to keep record of modifications. - Fixed: A small issue where a nil value would arise on the OnShow function. (Thanks Recbyrn) - Fixed: A small bug where the ItemCount frame kept changing it's value each time a search was preformed. This has been repaired. - Update: Small fix for tooltip issues in Fubar Plugin of ItemSync. - Fixed: An issue where the 'None' value was being repeated for the rarity filtering in the Search Window. It should now display the rarity and 'none' field properly. - Update: Small update to the german localization (Bashman) - Update: Removed old minimap functions and replaced with FubBar Minimap Library.
Author: kirson --Corrected error in externals (AceHook-2.0 is no longer in Ace2) --Removed references to AceHook-2.0 from toc ItemSync: Touching toc to attempt to start auto-zip script for /files ItemSync: Update .toc for new version including sfactor code ItemSync: add sfactor attribute and routines for items with negative subids (expansion random suffixes) ItemSync: add in sfactor attribute and routines for items with negative subids (expansion random suffixes)
I've got a error message: (last version) Interface\AddOns\ItemSync\ItemSync.lua:72 & 91 attempt to index global 'ISA' (a nio value)
help me, please~~! >"
When I complete the process of merging the databases, I see very very many 'Invalid Items'. If I try to force the validation, I get disconnected. What to do? Thanks. Sincerely yours.
little feature-wish:
it would be helpfull to build in a filter to show only epic items, rare items and so on ...
it would be fine if you could build in this feature in on of the next (not now and today) versions.
big thanks
I have released a database upgrade! This mod will add 57,135 items to your database.
It has been released via here at ui.worldofwar.net, wowinterface.com, and cursegaming.com

Also I'm working on updating ItemSync to address the new UniqueID of TBC. Please be aware that my schooling has taking much of my time. I'm sorry I couldn't get to it quicker but I do have important things to consider IRL. Once again my apologies.
Can anyone tell me where - what file name and under what directory - ItemSync keeps its list of items? I find that on a very regular basis, my list vanishes and starts from scratch. This isn't so much a matter of all my items becoming invalid, either... they just disappear altogether.
If there's a reason for this someone can tell me I'd be really appreciative, its getting on my damn nerves at this point. I really like to know which vendor trash sells for more, one of the main uses I have for it other than linking stuff, and I'm just getting tired of my list vanishing.
Thanks!
Is there a chance that someone will write an ItemSync converter addon in the future? I'm currently using LootLink 2.0.0 and I'd really love to use ItemSync instead, but it would be quite a pain to lose all my (12k+) items.
Any skilled LUA coder out there that could do this little job? The latest version of Derkyle's ItemSync Converter is from april 06, maybe it can still be used as a code base to make creating a new version easier ...
Anyway, it would really help me and probably lots of other people, too. Please. :/
The Item IDs are not reset every Tuesday...just every Patch. Generally a Hotfix will not reset the Item IDs. Also, I don't even worry about invalids, they automatically sort themselves out over time without any user intervention. The manual validation process is just to prempt the "normal" process.
@ovario
Thank you very much for the info. Quick question though, does the person have to be signed on at the time I try to validate, or is it that once they've been on once after the reset the server than recognizes the item forever? Cause if they have to be on when I try to validate this is going to take forever to build up the valids again.
Thank you for your help
Hey Derkyle, just want to say that I love the mod. I have kind of a wierd question, maybe you(or somebody else)coud help me out. So last night I was updating my IS DB by validating a lot of items from Atlas Loot Enhanced. I got up to 12,986 valid items and decided it was time to go to bed. Today, after I d/l the patch (2.07) I logged in to find that I still had 12,986 items in my DB, but 8,409 of them were invalid. How can this happen? How can something that was valid to the server last night be invalid today? Any advice/insight would be greatly appreciated. As I don't want to go through one by one and validate the items from Atlas Loot Enhanced again. And when I try to validate the items through IS I get D/C. Any ideas?
@TheSkasim
You are getting disconnected because:
Every Tuesday the loot that the server has "seen" is reset. Meaning that unless the person who has the item logs in, you will be disconnected because the server believes it does not exist. This usually happens with rare stuff from heroic instances or Karazhan. I usually don't try to validate anything or right-click AtlasLoot stuff until at least Thursday or Friday after weekly maintenance. Hope this helps you Skasim
An update and a question:
A) With your latest version, it seems that the "dimming" of all of my FuBar has been resolved, but when the bug occurs now I am unable to click on any of the FuBar modules that open that tooltip that was originially dimmed. Looks like you're getting closer to a fix! For now, reloading the UI works just fine to fix that temporarily.
B) Any hopes for a converted version of that monster database I sent you?
Hi, is it possible to add information about the origin of items you saw? Building a library of items is good but being able to find where you saw items is even better. Just a small add like "chat frame" or "vendor" or "action house" will be great so whenever I want the same item I know where to go to get it.
Thanks a lot.
Oh, i forgot to add that i did go to options and made sure this option was checked. Please help.
I do not know why but the items in my bags dont display the vendor price. That was the main reason i downloaded this mod. If you can help me fix this please do. I just returned to WoW and i cant live without this. Please help.
Right now my time has been swamped by several things. I've haven't had some free time to review a couple of issues and finish up some bug requests and or features. When things get settled down I will return as quickly as possible to resume the updates.
Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Hi Derkyle, it seems that the last release on wowace.com (r27204) solve my problem, great job! ;D
