I attempted to use this addon today, 0.7.7 version. There are several bugs that need to be addressed to make this a usable addon. I tried with multiple professions on multiple alts and had a lot of problems.

First, when crafting from the queue, it drags the game to a stop. My FPS drops from it's typical 60 to under 10, responses from keys are delayed by several seconds or ignored completely, and even the act of crafting is being delayed. When crafting a stack of the same glyph, I had crafting times that varied from four to nine seconds, with no real pattern to the times. This was true with every other addon turned off.

Second, the reporting of number of craftable items is inconsistent. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not. It does not always respond to changes in the options. The count is off. It also does not seem to know which materials can be purchased from vendors.

Third, ATSW has changed the typical search setup so that you cannot search based on materials. For instance, in default WOW or in Skillet you can enter "Ink of the Sea" and get all items made with that ink. In ATSW, if you enter "Ink of the Sea" you get only that ink.

Fourth, the tooltip boxes that pop up by default when you hover over a craftable item name in ATSW extend off of the screen and so are illegible. I had to keep dragging ATSW around with Fluid Frames. I finally just disabled those popups.


I had heard a lot of recommendations for this addon, so the fact that the queue is completely useless has disappointed me. I will check back to see if these issues are a 3.2 problem and get fixed, because otherwise I don't see how people like this addon so much.

I'm having a problem with ATSW still thinking there are items in my bags after I have used them. It is happing with both leatherworking, firstaid and cooking. I havent had a chance to check other yet.

in the language.lua zhCN and zhTW are error can not use!!

With double-what, i'm sorry?

This mod needs a total re-write.

With the new double-wide addition to the trade skills window in WoW, this mod definitely needs to be revisited by a developer. Some of the core features and benefits of ATSW are really great, and missed, but the slew of problems are just too much for this mod to be worth using anymore.

When ATSW update some professions, and you have much receipes learned, the whole game freeze for long time when ATSW is busy with initializing.

Not funny. They should optimize the code and reduce freeze risk.
It looks i must press the hardware reset button...

And that is with latest 0.7.6 ...

edit:
I try another mod DoubleWideProfession, which is a bit same as ATSW.

This mod is updated on Curse. I know. I hate Curse too.

Does anyone know of an alternate to this mod sicne the author seems to have given up on updating or fixing the ongoing proglem with searches. As of now and as stated before its only searching by name and not by stats like you can do without this mod installed.

is there going to be an "have materials" option in atsw in the futere?

or is there one but i cant find it i hav v0.7.5

My understanding is it only does that the first time after a reboot of the servers. We have, however, been getting a lot of reboots lately.

I am getting the freeze every time I open ATSW on my priest. She is a lvl 80 and her skills are tailoring and enchanting. My computer freezes and I have to close down, exit WoW's window to unfreeze it. Anybody heard when and if an update is coming?

So every time I log on and I open a tradeskill it has to scan? I just started using this addon and while I like pretty much all that I've seen, it would seem to get annoying really fast if I have to scan each time I log on...

I am having the same problem with Inscription as the others wrote before. The last update was in April, so is there going to be a bug fix soon?

Greetings from Germany,

I suspect the problem is the buyable inks in the inscription shop in Dalaran. If you wipe the saved variables for ATSW, inscription works fine until you next visit that vendor.

for some reason I'm experiencing a similar issue with inscription. This only started after i got recipes past level 300 inscription. It is able to buy parchment for me automatically (unlike the below poster). Everytime i try to queue something or process a queue, my latency goes up to 50000ms+ and my fps goes down to 4. I dunno what could be the problem...
