Do I use this one, or Xloot? What is the differance, can they, should they be used togerther?

Using latest version of XLoot
Latest version of XLootmaster, with edited .toc to match 2.01

went into ragefire with 2 people, and master loot active.


xloot works fine.
xlootmaster does not work,

i can set settings etc, but assigning loot was impossible due to constant .lua errors

please look into it.

Not sure what would be the most logical place or addon for a hack like this,,.. (perhaps oRa)
But would it be possible to stick a hack into XML to automatically turn on "master looting" as soon as you convert your party into a raid?


CT_RA has the feature, but ever since switching to oRa2, and other ace mods, i sometimes tend to forget manually switching it on ^^

An option is probably best, i'm sure there'll be complaints if it was always active by default.`


edit:
found another bug.
if you set ML and loot drops, then enable group loot. the XML window wont activate.
if you set ML again, then it will.

its minor, and unlikely to cause any big issues. but still.

Also a request.
when clicking "award to random player", it may be nice to post in the raid the number which was internally rolled for that player.

Really nice addon. I was wondering if it would be possible in a future release to have the captured rolls displayed to raid chat after the timer runs out, perferably in order. I find most players like to see this after the roll. Thanks.

Excellent mod. Recently tried it out and tested it tonight and, other than spamming the guild with loot awards until I figured out how to turn it off, it worked splendidly.

Xuerian: my guild leader has a question. Would it be possible within the current scripting mechanics to force the loot type into Master mode when a boss is engaged and then force back into Group once the boss is down? It seems like it should be possible, but I wanted to check with someone who knows the mechanics.

Hello

Thanks for the addon XLoot Master, that's really a great job.

There I some questions I have concerning this:

1) Can I somehow change the message type for a new roll dice round from the random menu from "Raid alert" to "Raid message"? I can change the message type for the "Link all" button, but not for that one.
2) In our raid the loot master collects all green items to sell them in the auction house, to collect money for the raid (it's a guild raid with the same roster every time).
So maybe you could implement the feature that the loot master automatically collects all green items at once, instead of having to assign it to himself with the "loot myself"-button (which is much better than the old way).
3) When the roll dice countdown runs out it would be very nice if the addon could count the last let's say five seconds down in the raid channel. So everybody can see that the time to roll is running out, and when it has run out.
4) We often give blue and purple items to a dischanter in the raid. Maybe you could implement a function to give an item which nobody has rolled for to a pre-set character easily.

i found a bug using XLoot Master:

i enabled the "Capture /rolls" option. Then anounced to /rw to roll. After 30 sec passed, i clicked the person, who rolled at most. When i click on him, i get this error:

any possibility to fix that? Thank you!

How do you change the threshold for guild and rw announcements? I can't seem to get it to switch using /xloot master guild Never

Until such time as Xuerian has a chance to push an updated version here on WoWI,
you can get a beta version of XLootMaster that works on 3.1 from curse:

XLoot and the rest of the family should work fine in 3.1 with just "load out of date" checked.
