The Achievement Frame

Urban Achiever Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

I will keep this project alive. I probably not add a lot of stuff but if you have suggestions go ahead.

Tomate

Urban Achiever is a replacement Achievement frame.

Features

Search through all the achievements, statistics, and criteria in game for any term.
Sort achievements by name, point value, or completion date
Now uses the built in Tracking frame added in 3.1, with additional functionality
More information available with less scrolling required.
See how far progressed other people are in every achievement, along with the status of individual criteria.
Track timed achievements as they start, automatically.

Known Issues

Sorting isn't working as well as I'd like.

Usage
/urbanachiever or /ua to toggle the options and help.

All the current /commands for the achievement frame will open the new one.

Shift-click achievements to track them, alt-click them on the tracker to remove them.

Feature Requests
Please use the integrated feature request system. It makes my life so much easier.

Bug Reports
Please Use the integrated bug report system for any and all bugs. Again, makes my life easier if you do.

Yeah was thinking that same thing.... better question is, when they update the achievements... do all the ID's change? O.o

Errors I found (on Alliance, didn't check Horde):
- missing 'Heroic: Trial of the Champion"
- wrong version of 'Trial of the Champion'

... because those are exactly the ones I stumbled across.

@Syzgyn: can we do anything to support you in finding out what needs to be fixed for the above bug?

Hi Syzgyn

I hadn't realised that you were not playing anymore and was coming here to report the same issue about seeing the horde version of achievments instead of the alliance version because I really like your addon and am hoping to be able to continue using it.

Quote:

Originally posted by Syzgyn by using GetAchievementInfo(category, index), You only get achievement's that you see in the blizzard achievement UI. This leaves out every feat of strength you don't have, Along with Any achievements in a series past the one you're working on (1 Badge of Conquest, 5, 10, 50, ect). This results in incomplete data when searching for achievements, and is generally just a pain in the ass to deal with.

When first writing UA in the WotLK beta, I decided that having to modify one number and one list of faction specific achievements once every major patch was better for users than limiting the data available.

Additionally, With patch 3.2 the max achievement is up to 4200

To Everyone else: I'll try to update the list of faction achievements soon. [/b]

Thanks for looking into this despite not playing anymore.

I might try giving it a go patching things, haven't looked at the code yet. Apart from increasing the number from 3400 to 4200, what would I need to change to make the faction specific achievments recognisable? List their IDs? Or something else?

Thanks for a great addon!

I am not *****ing, I am merely giving criticism.

The achievement series issue: GetPreviousAchievement()
The Feat of Strength issue: I admit that I like this feature. But maybe you should only use your current method for this category. Maybe set the max achievement limit to 10000, that way it'll last a while. Then the only 'problem' left is that it will show all FoS, and then with a simple update you can filter those.

In my opinion, that would be a better approach. Then only the FoS can be broken when a patch comes, and the rest of the addon will still function.

Again, I am merely giving criticism (and now suggestions).

Again, feel free to write your own mod, or a patch for this one, and sumbit it. I'm not about to rewrite a chunk of code right now though.

About the faction specific achievements: these are also hard-coded in FactionSpecificAchievements.lua
Again, if the other implementation of GetAchievementInfo() had been used, this would not be necessary, as GetCategoryNumAchievements only returns the number available to your faction.

Thanks for the kind words regarding my design. Please feel free to code your own implementation and post it yourself. If you did so, you'd realize that by using GetAchievementInfo(category, index), You only get achievement's that you see in the blizzard achievement UI.

Additionally, With patch 3.2 the max achievement is up to 4200 now, so perhaps you should update before you begin b itching. In the mean time, kindly write your own mod or gtfo.

To Everyone else: I'll try to update the list of faction achievements soon.

Hazerduz A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 2 Uploads: 0	I can also see the Horde achievements on my Alliance char's, and it seems the Dungeon & Raid Emblems ones are missing from the Dungeon & Raid tab. If I click on one of the recent ones received, that's where it takes me, but nothing selected in that tab. Also if you search using the words Dungeon/Raid Emblem it will bring them up, but not in the proper tab.
