FuBar - SkillsPlusFu 

Can you please check jewelcrafting? I took the profession with my Draenei and it doesn't seem to show up. It shows in the skill points tooltip, but not in the right mouse button menu.

Thanks for all this. It's fantastic

I just got my 350 tailoring, and with that the new Cloths - Primal Mooncloth, Shadowcloth, and Spellcloth. As of the most recent version, the cooldown on these in not supported. It's the same as the old Mooncloth, 4 days

When you can, I would appreciate it. Thank you!

I also have 350 tailoring and the new cloths (Primal Mooncloth, Shadowcloth and Spellcloth) to add to Mooncloth. Reading the notes, they have been added to this mod.

Do you realize all 4 cloths are on separate cooldowns, not common cooldowns. Looking at your lua code it "seems" like you have them sharing a cooldown. In game, I can make one of each cloth every 4 days so I need 4 different timers - one for each cloth.

I will try this out tonight just in case. Can you add separate cooldowns if that is not already in?

Jayhawk,

You have done good! Installed SkillsPlus, logged in to game and looked in the pulldown... No info. Oh yeah - needs the initial data. Opened up tailoring and clicked on my four cloths, then looked again in the SkillsPlus pulldown and there they were. Mooncloth 1d away, Primal mooncloth at 2d 5h and the other two "Ready" (I need some primal fire, but only 64 atm and AH prices on Vek - not yet). Four separate timers - very nice

Will there be an alarm or other alert when cooldowns are up? Hoping so. Probably should read the description closer as I bet it is in there.

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to add in the new cloths and such from the expansion. Now I just need to recoup my gold from getting tailoring up

I've encountered a problem, and I don't know if others have and just haven't posted about it, but my Blood Elf character is still being considered alliance for faction. I downloaded the most recent version and installed it over my prior version, and the BE was still seen as Alliance. So I cleared out all the saved variables and the addon itself and did a clean install, then repopulated, but still the BEs are showing up under alliance faction. Is anyone else having this problem?

Hi Jayhawk,

it's the best addon for showing skills for my main and my alt chars, so keep up the good work please

I have a few feature requests and I hope you can implement them.

1. Change the SkillsPlusFu menu (add a dynamically generated player specific submenu to it) from:

[Checkmark on/off] "Show other player skills"

to (as an example):

"Show other player skills >"
___"Charname1 >"
______"[Checkmark on/off] All Skills"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Alchemy"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Blacksmithing"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Cooking"
______"[Checkmark on/off] First Aid"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Fishing"

___"Charname2 >"
______"[Checkmark on/off] All Skills"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Enchanting"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Tailoring"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Cooking"
______"[Checkmark on/off] First Aid"

...

___"CharnameX >"
______"[Checkmark on/off] All Skills"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Jewelcrafting"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Tailoring"
______"[Checkmark on/off] Cooking"
______"[Checkmark on/off] First Aid"

These menus are dynamically created from SkillsPlusFu. It knows about each profession that all tracked players have and shows only these in each submenu.

Why do I propose this change? I have 10 chars on a realm, all with 2 main professions + secondary ones (fishing, cooking, first aid). The tooltip that SkillsPlusFu
displays is so long (I only use a 1024 x 768 resolution for wow) that I must scroll to see all chars in the list
(what I can't do, because my mouse has no scroll wheel :/ ). Adding a submenu for what to display for the alt chars
makes it possible to trim down the tooltip to what is really important to me and that is normally their two main professions. But everone is still able to switch
every profession for every char to on or off depending on if he wants to see it
or not (I normally don't want to display SkillsPlusFu professions for chars that
I have already maxed out (375 in TBC).


2. Make an additional SkillsPlusFu menu entry like this (it is also dynamically created and player specific like in feature request nr. 1)

"Show cooldowns for >"
___"Charname1 >"
______"Alchemy"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] All Skills"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Transmute Arcanite"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Transmute Primal Might"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] etc."

(all learned recipes for Charname1 that trigger cooldowns would be in this menu)
I'm not aware of any cooldowns in the blacksmithing category so there would be no entry for blacksmithing for this char.

___"Charname2 >"
______"Tailoring"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] All Skills"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] (Old Mooncloth)"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Primal Mooncloth"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Shadowcloth"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Spellcloth"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] etc."

Enchanting has no cooldowns so only Tailoring is a category for Charname2. Entries are autofilled.

...

___"CharnameX >"
______"Tailoring"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] All Skills"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] (Old Mooncloth)"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Primal Mooncloth"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Shadowcloth"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] Spellcloth"
_________"[Checkmark on/off] etc."

I don't know if juwelcrafting has any cooldowns, otherwise juwelcrafting
would be added on this char as the second category.

...

Why this one? With TBC none of my chars will ever make the old mooncloth again (why should they it's not used in any new recipe) so I'd like to switch off displaying these cooldowns (to free up some space for the display of more important things).


3. Alphabetical sorting of the char names (and their skills) in the tooltip

Atm SkillsPlusFu displays chars on my client like this:

1. Actual char with it's skills
2. Other stuff (cooldowns, etc.)
3. Char with name: Charname2
4. Char with name: Charname4
5. Char with name: Charname3
6. Char with name: Charname5
etc.

As you can see the list of alt char names is not sorted in any way.

A display like this would be nicer imho:

1. Actual char with it's skills
2. Other stuff (cooldowns, etc.)
3. Char with name: Charname2
4. Char with name: Charname3
5. Char with name: Charname4
6. Char with name: Charname5
etc.


I hope it isn't too much work to implement these 3 feature requests?

Thx for your work, I really appreciate it!

The thing is, beeing able to switch on/off all professions and all cooldowns for every charakter separately through automatically generated player specific submenus is the most flexible way to handle the output of SkillsPlusFu...

I have thought of a more static approach before too, but it just wasn't flexible enough.

E.g. globally configuring displaying of cooldowns doesn't let you choose that you want to display the 10 minutes alchemy transmute "essence of fire -> 3 elementals of fire" for a specific char that is leveling alchemy with this while your're playing but disabling it for every other char that can do the same transmute but won't to it because it's grey for them...

So I still have the hope that you choose my proposed approach to handle it via these autogenerated menus

@Jayhawk

Looks nice, but I haven't had the time to play with all settings in depth. Anyway, thx for implementing these things )

Two or three very small things that could be changed eventually?

- Every time I switch a tradeskill on or off for a char the whole menu closes afterwards. This is a bit annoying if you want to change things for many alts at once. Could you change it so that the menu only closes when you click outside of it (but not on additional settings inside)?

- Maybe a setting how much space (vertically) the tooltip can take? Iirc the tooltip from the last version was larger and therefore able to display more alts in it. A pixel value maybe would be nice.

- The scrollbar on the right side could be 3 or 4 pixels wider and 2 or 3 pixels separated from the text entries in the tooltip.

Sorry to bother you with such things

Highend
