Classes
There is too much spells handled by the add-on to list them here, see in game. But for a quick summary, it handles every speed increase spells.
Sets
In the Set Options category you will find several tabs.
- Companions and Mounts tabs: Here you can create sets and select which one is active for edition (If it is not the Default set you have to activate it before the add-on will use it, see bellow), when selecting companions or mounts in the Mounts List or the Companions List categories it will edit their respective active set.
- Default Sets category within Companions and Mounts tabs: Here you can create the default set of sets. This is useful if you want to create several sets and just use some of them as the default one. It is not mandatory and the add-on will search for a set named Default if nothing is set here. But if you have created a set and want to use it, it have to be selected here. Remember that the add-on will not use a custom set until asked for.
- Area Companions and Area Mounts tabs: Here you can define a set of sets for a given area, the add-on will use those sets if you are in that area.
Sets are saved on a global scope, they are not tied to the current profile, editing a set on a character will modify it for all your toons using that set. This is unique and all the other options are tied to the character profile (default set of sets, area set of sets, etc).
A set will not be considered active until it have at least one favorite selected.
Custom macros
You can edit the mount button macro, using classic macro syntax or LUA. As this feature is for advanced users I will not make a full documentation on it. Read the summary in game.
And if you import someone else code be sure to completely trust him/her. This code will be executed when clicking the button, and even if there is not threat for your account, you can still get griefed/scammed.
Other informations
Configuration panel
There is a lot of options, and I think more will come. But every option got a description in game, you are not alone. I will add here more information if something is reported unclear.
Commands
/petsandmounts (/pam is an alias)
/pam - Display the configuration panel /pam refresh - Force a pets and mounts databases refresh /pam show - Show the minimap button /pam resetzones - Reset the current zones database

Random summon
Here is the priority used by the add-on.
- Force one.
- Area override.
- Area (add-on forced, ex: vashj'ir, aq40). Can be disabled.
- Favorites and Area sets.
- All.
This can be altered by some items, the Magic Broom or the Haunted Memento for example. Those specifics instances can be disabled in the options panel.
Impact on the system
As every add-on relying on databases, it is using a lot of memory. Although it will not harass your CPU, especially in combat.
Support
If you find an error or have a suggestion, please use the tickets system. This is better as I instantly receive an E-mail. You can also help with the add-on localization.
Some features could not be available with the release version, as I edit the description when uploading new alpha. You can find all the add-on versions here.
I really appreiciate the quick response. I would absoltuely agree with you, but when I set the keybind using the addon, it recognizes BUTTON3 using the RAZER NAGA that I am using. I am going to dig a little deeper into the RAZER settigns, but I usually dont mess with any defaults so I am a bit concerned. I will come back with an update. Middle Mouse is a dealbreaker for me, I just swotched over to your addon from another addon I used to us but the support was getting lax...
I am already impressed with the quality documentation aroudn your app and of course your quick response, thank you again.
You are welcome. :)
Your issue is weird as I also use a Razer Naga with default settings. Are you using per character binds? I never tested if it works.
So I reinstalled the Mouse drivers for the Naga and set the key binding within the Addon. Again I am able to select BUTTON3 when I depress the MIDDLE Mouse (Scroll Wheel) button on my Razer NAGA. Even with the button on the UI for the addon on my screen it indicates press Middle Click to get to the confirguration panel and itworks just fine, but when I set the binding it indicates BUTTON3 on the configuration.
BTW I tried other keyboard keybinds and no success.
I am running ELVUI perhaps there is a conflict with that total UI revamp which has a key bind component to it.
Any thoughts?
I am definitely using per character binds. That could definitely be it?
Update, I disabled the per character bind and then configured teh addon and it works like a champ. Nice thinking and I am looking forward to using your Addon.
Thank you for the great communication and excellent problems solving. I appreicate it.
It helped me identify an issue, wich is now fixed, thank you for testing and reporting it.
It will not save my mount preferences on my Alliance hunter. (I have no issues with my Horde hunter.) Any idea why? I've even tried saving under the options. If I log in and out it saves it. But the next day when I get home from work it's like I never changed anything.
Also if I enable the Spectral Wind Rider on my Horde hunter it tries to mount it on my Alliance hunter. It gives me the error about being the wrong faction.
Is there every going to be any options like guppet where you can have it select certain mounts more often than others?
Thanks in advance for a great addon.
I think there is an issue with your machine, log in/out or launching the game the next day do the same thing with saved vars. I have no answer because it never happen to me.
I will add the Spectral Wind Rider to the filters.
This is planned for the 2.0, but it will not be available for at least a year.
Figured it out. I was on the companions tab when I was saving. lol Sorry.
Hi, I like the addon and am using it for a while now.
I do have one problem with it. The Mounts are classified in different groups, but I think some mounts are not correctly classified. The following mounts are classified as hybrids.
Armoured Bloodwing
(magnificent) Flying carpet
Geosynchrones
Turbo charged flying machine
Heart of the Aspect
I think they should have been classified as flyers.
How does the addon classify the mounts and can I change this classification?
Hybrid means they are flying or ground mounts depending on the zone. Some mounts can only be used for flying, and some can only be used for ground mounts.
The Armoured Bloodwing is deffinetly a flying mount. (Does not us his feet) and still he is classified as an hybrid. I want to change his classification in Pets an Mounts. But was wandering if that is even possible. Where is the classification comming from. Is it made in the Pets and Mounts addon?
The addon classify the mounts using a number provided by WoW API. If a mount is in the hybrid category you can use it in a non flying area as a ground mount, and in a flying one as both.
No you can't edit manually the classification, I will add it to my todo list for version 2.0. But do not wait for it as it will not be available for at least a year.
Thanks
Hey, I love this addon and have been using it for a while.
However, now on my druid it always summons my class mount only.
My travel form is very slow, and not what I want to summon, and I can't work out how to turn it off.
Thanks
It summon your travel form because you are in combat or moving.
See, options => mounts tab => class specific, you can disable it from here.
Edit: Ok, now my account is active again, it seem some ninja modification ((c) Blizzard) mess with Druids forms. I will take a look into it.
OUAH!!!!Juste génial cet add on ; )
Depuis le temps que je cherchais un add on comme celui-ci..
Il fait exactement ce que les amateurs de mascottes et montures souhaiteraient^^
Vraiment un gros GG, super simple, très bien pensé et très simple d'utilisation.
Franchement, GG, désolé pour le pavé mais suis trop content^^
Merci. :)
A very very great addon! Thank you so much! Also you still working on the addon!
Yes, and it will be updated for wod.
I was not playing wow anymore, one year on the same tier... meh.
Hey, i have noitced something really weird only today.
On my hunter, when i use camoflage it turns it off about a second. If i disable pet's and mounts it stops doing it, and if i disable everything and just enable pet's and mounts, it does it. Is this just a simple option i've acidently activated or is it a bug?
Please fix ASAP, cause its annoying that i can't stealth. Thanks in advance. Scott.
