XLootGroup
Please use http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/xloot - Group is included in the package, and this is no longer maintained.
Smooth "Group Loot" roll frames
Options not featured in screenshot:
- Show time remaining on roll (Shown over icon)
- Show winning roll type icon (Need, greed, etc)
- Show undecided players
- When to track rolls you have decided on (Always, when rolling, never, by quality)
- Anchor direction (Up or down)
- Skins (Choose skin in XLoot 1.0, compatible with Masque skins)
- Frame scale, width, and button size
Loot Rolls anchor and Loot Popup anchors can be re-shown through the options panel or with /xlg
Skin used is determined by XLoot 1.0, if installed
z15 release has options. I just updated it today and it's all working for me. You may have to clean out the addon and any saved variables for it to get it completely scrubbed and then reinstall it. You may also have another addon(s) or leftover saved variables from something else interfering. Try turning all your addons off but this one and see if it works. If it does, another addon is bugging it.
Indeed, I understand it's inconvenient but at this point I have no clue as to why 15z is not working for you except that you are using a German client, and I can't think what's changed in the german localization between 14 and 15. Not to mention about the only thing that would be able to break is parsing the localization file by way of syntax error, which would break for all localizations.
I didn't see anything in the options, but is there a way to anchor the tooltip to just the item icon itself and not the entire roll bar? When I mouse over to roll, the tooltip obstructs the buttons. Probably just my own particular setup locations causing it, but would be very much appreciated.
Also, I didn't see any way to have the loot rolls output in the chat frame (or elsewhere) tracking the rolls, need/greed/pass, etc. The tooltip is the only place to track rolls and roll type?
Just some thoughts for consideration. Otherwise this has been a great addon. Thank you for taking the time to make it. This has replaced my outdated and abandoned hfLootRoll addon.
I believe addons like MiniLoot cover the chat aspect pretty well. There was another one with greed in the name I think, but I can't recall. GreedBeacon?
And not currently, that's exactly where the tooltip is anchored. It would have to be anchored bottomright-topleft instead of bottomleft-topright as well. I did move the tooltip over enough so that you could see the other item icons if I recall, though. If that's actually a issue I can probably make a option for it without that much trouble.
I'll have to check out those two addons, thank you much.
As for the tooltip anchor, I have the addon in the bottom right of my screen where the default WoW tooltip is located so it may be the location of the addon (my monitor isn't as big as I'd like so screen real-estate is at a premium lol). In addition, I have some other addons that add a lot of info onto the tooltip so that's probably not helping me. I'll play with it some more then - looks like it's my setup then. Thanks for the help.
Addons that add extra to the tooltip won't exactly help, but it is not your setup, the tooltip is specifically anchored just to the right of the item icon above the row. What's why I mentioned I could change it if it's still a problem when the item icons themselves are visible. (Now if you meant THOSE aren't, then yes, you might try moving it left some)
The addon works great. Icons are visible. My tooltip just gets in the way of the buttons since it's all crammed in the bottom right of my screen. I'll just play with the location some more. Doubt it'll be an issue when I get a bigger monitor.
I don't suppose you could add a "config mode" to it if you find the time? About the only way I can actively configure the addon and see what it's doing and how it looks is when it's in use and I'm rolling on things, and that's usually only in a party and I'm in a dungeon. Nothing like trying to config while being attacked in a heroic or something lol. Again, just some thoughts. It's your addon. :P Thanks again for the help.
I've thought about it and been asked about it more than once. This was also true of XLoot 1.0, which this uses the skin from.
The problem is, in order for that to work I have to either add a separate set of static "dummy" frames by hand, and then maintain both whenever I change something in the real frames, or as in 1.0, abstract frame creation enough that it doesn't actually care if it is a real frame or not - and then support reinitializing frame layouts.
For 1.0 it made sense, there's a lot of positional options for it. I was hoping that it wouldn't be necessary for group, and I personally don't believe it is, but the truth is if multiple people consider it something it needs it may well just need to be done.
For now, if you want to preview how skins will look, as mentioned 1.0 has a live preview and is what Group uses to determine what skin it will use.
On a side note, I really appreciate friendly and understanding users. Most often, when something works or someone is pleased with a addon, you don't hear from them - as with most software, if it works, they're just continuing to use it as intended. Glad you find it useful.
i have deleted now have no options for xlootgroup
cu cardo_
You deleted WTF\_YOU_\SavedVariables\XLootGroup.lua AND installed new copy of addon itself?
I just downloaded a fresh copy and deleted that WTF file and took this screenshot
Please turn Lua Errors on under Menu > Interface > Game > Help - try to open Group's options (/xlg opt) and post any that mention XLoot/LibXTools here: http://pastebin.com/ then link me.
i have 2 greed and no disenchanted button!!
german client and z15
cu cardo_
I know it is annoying, but please install fresh copy of XLootGroup and delete \WoW\WTF\Account\_YOU_\XLootGroup.lua
It worked for me just now:
Hi, I don't see any options to move the roll window, I think you can see when the addon is first installed, but not I want to move the roll window. Anyone know the command, because its not in the xloot options?
Please tell me you aren't talking about the command that is in a very large font in the addon description or mentioned a couple posts down.
I'm probably just an idiot, but I'm having a problem. I can't see who has rolled for what, or what they roll. I used to see a number over each option (n/g/de/p) noting how many have rolled for each option, but now I only see my roll. If I mouse over the item it just says that everyone is undecided. I've really loved using this addon, but it's a little frustrating to not see who has rolled what. I didn't know I won the heroic DW mount until my RL gave it to me because I couldn't see who needed on it!! :)
Great addon, hoping you can point me in the right way.
Please try using the Beta version. I will push it to release shortly. (you can still use it now)
The new release displays greed/need/undecided properly now. Thanks for the update.
I have an issue with the winning loot window however. I can't seem to find a way to move it. It popped up first time I updated the addon, but I closed it and I can't seem to get the anchor back, even with pretty anchor checked.
"/xlg shows or hides the anchors."
I'll be making that a few sizes bigger, and bold, it seems.
Ah, that worked. I was trying to find that in the Interface -> XLootGroup options.
Yeah, it looks like I'm going to have to add a option there purely for my own convenience, because (no offense to you specifically), more than a few people apparently don't read couple sentences on addon descriptions before downloading then reporting problems.
