Mounted
Brand new complete rewrite of Mounted is available as alpha
- Complete redo of Mounted
- profile based priorities
- mounts can be grouped
- macros sytem has been simplified (only 2 tags <primary>, <secondary>)
- Fancy new interface which attaches itself to the Mount Journal page blizzard provides
Mounted is patched for 4.0
with the mount changes in 4.0 Mounted is due for another rewrite until then Mounted will work just like before (but since mount speeds now scale with skill they have all been set to max Mounted 3 will remove the speed selection options all together)
Please report any bugs to the ticket tracker here
Warning in order for Mounted to work properly in your local the following strings need to be translated at the very least.
- L["SpeedFast"] = "extremely%s+fast" -< unique phrase found only in extremely fast mounts (310% flying)
- L["SpeedMedium"] = "very%s+fast" -< unique phrase found only in fast mounts (100% ground or 280% flying)
- Translations may be submitted here.
With the coming of WoW 3.0 we may now have as many mounts as we want since we learn them and do not have to carry them in you bags.
Thus my dilemma which mount shall i use and how can i chose them easily out of the mess of mounts found in the mounts tab.
Out of this Mounted was born. Instead of mucking about with secure code and make buttons that have to be skinned and carefully placed in your UI i instead chose to utilize the macro functions. Thus enabling you to simply use any actionbar mod.
So what does mounted actually do for you?
- It will create a macro called Mounted in your global macro space this way you only use one slot and not one per character.
- It will scan through all your mounts and create a list and sort them by speed.
- It will then analyze your surroundings and edit the Mounted macro.
- If you can fly then it will chose a random flying mount from the fastest category it will also chose a random ground mount to be used when using a modifier with the macro.
- If you can not fly it will simply chose a random ground mount from the fastest category.
- If you enter combat it will change the macro to a combat macro which you can edit in the Blizzard Addon options.
- If you are indoors it will change to the indoor macro.
- If you are swimming it will change to the swimming macro.
- A new mount will be chosen for you every time you mount up.
- the macros are compleatly customizable (editing of the attack macro is highly recommended)
- macros can by customized with tags that get replaced when the macro is parsed (see below for list of available tags)
- custom macros are saved globally so you will have access to them from all your characters (per account)
- you can preview your macros before deciding on them
- you can set priorities for mounts from 0-10 (0 = will never be selected, 10 will most likely be selected)
- If you want to add a spell such as travel form you may do this from the options this will then be put into the mount linup (after you configured the spell)
Macro tags are:
Here are tags you may use to customize the above macros: <ff> == Random Flying Mount (fastest speed increase) <f310> == Random Flying Mount (310% speed increase) <f280> == Random Flying Mount (280% speed increase) <f60> == Random Flying Mount (60% speed increase) <gf> == Random Ground Mount (fastest speed increase) <g100> == Random Ground Mount (100% speed increase) <g60> == Random Ground Mount (60% speed increase) <g0> == Random Ground Mount (0% speed increase) <ww> == Random Water Mount (defaults to <gf> if no mount was found) <aq> == Random Ahn'Qiraj Mount <s#> == will be replaced with the spellname of spellid (will not insert rank so will scale)[/code]
If any mounts are missclassified please let me know so i can fix the scanner. You may fix this on your end by simply editing the mount in the Mount Options
Mounted also supports the various Druid forms and the Shaman Ghost Wolf form though there may be some bugs associated with them since i don't have either character to do extensive testing on all i get is premades on the PTR when they are available. Mounted will also present you with some druid /shaman macros as appropriate.
any suggestions or improvements are most welcome please open a ticket about them.
If you want a very similar addons for your other Critters look no further and go to here.
you can try running the following
/script MNT4.MainFrame:SetAlpha(.5)
that should turn the entire mounted UI tansparent and you should be able to see everything if its there
also when this happens please run the 3 following scripts and report back what each of them print into your chatlog
/script print('MainFrame:', MNT4.MainFrame:GetFrameLevel())
/script print('ChildFrame:', MNT4.MainFrame.childframe:GetFrameLevel())
/script print('SubChildFrame:', MNT4.MainFrame.childframe.child:GetFrameLevel())
I also browsed through your list of addons and nothing stands out in particular but try disabeling KGpanels and see if that helps (since its an addon that is meant to hook into other frames it could be interfereing)
you also have quite a few addons that do the same thing so you may want to consider going through your addons and cleaning out unwanted stuff.
in the end to be able to fix this i need to be able to reproduce it so you still need to find that one addon that breaks it without that there is not much i can do from my end
Thanks for updating this! I tried another addon and it just wasn't as good.
any feedback is greatly appreciated there are a lot of new things and everything codewise has changed
The only issues I've had so far are like what Draven006 has and that it says it's out of date on the addon page, I haven't tested the issues similar to Draven yet, but I will after my raid and report back.
Addon page reports the stable release as out of date like it should. Once the rewrite is stable the page will auto update
Alright it is finaly ready for testing (i hope) if you want to try out the complete reimagined Mounted install the latest alpha version to configure it simply open you Mount Journal page blizzard gives you :)
I ran through and updated all of the Libs which caused Mounted to just work. I then made a change using yssaril's updated LibMounts.
In the Function MNT2:MountScan() I used yssaril's lib:GetProfessionRestriction(id) to check if the mount is summonable on list build. If it is not, Mounted moves on. This means that you will probably have to go through and remove your saved mount preferences =( Thanks a bunch to yssaril for all the hard work! This should hold me over until whatever new awesomeness yssaril is cooking up, lands. I attached a link to the zipped Mounted that I adjusted. Good luck.

It is a google docs link. When it opens the page, Click File->Download and it should download the whole file.
I hope you get it out soon. It currently crashes my client when I try to play with it turned on. Not the first time this has happened.
I Love mounted, but I have a couple issues with it.
1st one is, is that my main had the option to dismount when I click the macro. I believe there was an option so that I could dismount when I click.
However, all my alts didn't have that option. They would dismount/remount in the same click. I'd have to move to cancel the remount. Was annoying.
The other issue is that when trying to remedy the first one, I went into the macro and copied the coding my main had (which had the dismount option), and pasted it for my alts, however it wouldn't take the dismount. I gave up and waited for an update.
All in all, I don't want to get another addon. I like this one. It does EXACTLY what I want it to do for the most part. I love the ability to turn off certain mounts and lower others.
I would love to see the ability to be able to make special mount macros. I'd like to have all my passenger mounts in one macro so if I'm ever using my Sandstone Drake, X-53 Rocket, or the new RaF panther, I could have the macro specificaly for those 3, and have it function just like the standard macro does. I don't know if this is/was already available, but it's not worked for me thus far.
i am not planning to update the current version of Mounted. I am working on a compleate rebuild of the whole automatic mount macro concept hopefully i can get that out in a week or 2
Really a good news, say us the name of new addon when you are ready !!
That's fantastic news! I've been limping along with Mounted forever because no other mount addon supports the things Mounted does (e.g. mount priorities).
Any news? :D Can't wait to get mounted back :D
Is the rebuild still being worked on?
Still no news on the new addon?
Is this going to be patched for MoP?
Does anyone have a good replacement?
Hello, I've having some trouble with Mounted and I don't know if it's a bug or an option I've yet to discover. The Mounted macro icon is blank. It looks as if there is no macro there and the only thing that shows there is one is the macro name. It isn't showing what mount I'm currently on like it used to. Any help would be appreciated!
