Is it a matter of generating a new data file or does it take more changes to include the current cooking items and instance drops and all similar new items? Looking forward to the configurable part of this addon; I could imagine having a 'base' tooltip and a verbose tooltip when holding shift or so

Tekkub doesn't seem to be responding to tickets as much lately though.

Re: Data list appears twice.

I'm also having the double info error. Props to another fantastic addition to my UI Tek!

Data list appears twice.

Hello,

First, please excuse my wrong english as I am French and not used to write in this language.

I'm a big fan of all your addons (perhaps not all at least just a great number of them ).

Engravings seams to me to be a great addon, but I have a problem with it, all the data appears twice in the tooltip, as we can see in this screenshot below:

http://img362.imageshack.us/my.php?i...8222244po3.jpg

How can I repair it? (I'm using CowTip, tekKompare, RatingBuster and Statstains)

Second question: how can I change the default colour? I know that I have to look inside the lua file, but I can't see where I must change the settings.

Best regards.

Wrong loot info

Ive found some wrong info.. Havent really scouted for more, this one just caught my eye earlier tonight on SWP Kalecgos fight... I dont know if its got anything to do with dropping some info, but atleast the drop location is wrong..

Screeny: http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/8...8040450jf9.jpg

Should be Kalecgos instead of grand warlock

Hey, I keep checking especially this mod for updates, any new things in the making, GUI, quest rewards? I think some PvP prices are still incorrect/missing. Just wondering, cheers

Wowhead's prices have not yet been updated. Whenever they do get updated, I'll push out a release. Until then, I'll at least get the new items in.

With all new PvP S4 gear and changed honor/points costs, this begs for an update

Yes, a ruby script mines the data from wowhead. Initially I borrow LootDB's data, but quickly found it was incomplete. Options are coming eventually, and I've considered a module for blue quest rewards, just a matter of writing a miner for em.

I was a bit afraid this would come with a huge memory overhead, but I'm really impressed by the compactness of both the data tables and the code. Are the tables generated automatically? And from what source? The tough part of an addon like this is keeping it up-to-date.

A config to toggle the various data 'modules' on or off would make this complete, looking forward to it. Perhaps also a (lvl 70) quest reward module, though that would probably be quite large.

I cease to be amazed at the number of unique, yet simple, roles that your mods fill. Nice one.

Yes, just remove the files. A config will come, but not until I've finished compiling all the data I want in the mod.

Default engravings

I know and share the minimalistic approach to configs (ie no config at all).

However engravings needs a way (even if it means editing some lua) to disable "default engravings".

itemid, itemlevel, stacksize, drop location info... there should be a way to disable them from the tooltip.

There's a host of addons that provide this info on tooltips.
(RatingBuster, LootLink, Mendeleev, InventoryOnPar just to name a few I currently use for different features they offer)

All / most of them provide options to disable showing of item info on the tooltip so you can still get a tooltip without duplicate info.

Engravings major selling point is the ability to embed custom notes (engrave) info to item tooltips,
which is not offered by anything else.

No way to disable the "default" additions in total or in part though just means I have to choose between it and my other addons which I'd rather not.

Thanks for the addon goes without saying

Edit: oh erm... this just occured to me.
Is it possible to "toggle" those additions off just by
commenting out the relevant Data\xxxx.lua files from the .toc?

Edit2: answering my own question.
It's indeed enough to comment out the modules you're not interested in from the .toc.
So all is well.

You can grab an alpha off http://git.tekkub.net/Engravings/

It's not 100% the same though. I think I removed PeriodicTable support because it made the addon bulky and I don't think anyone was using it... besides that, Engravings was meant to complement Mendeleev... where Mendy dealt with PT stuff Engravings was meant to deal with the things PT couldn't.
