Learning Aid  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.12 Beta 3a
by: Jamash [More]

All good things must come to an end
I am not subscribed to World of Warcraft, and have not been for several years. I am not likely to resubscribe in the foreseeable future. I appreciate all the support Learning Aid has received (especially from the people who localized it into different languages), but playing an MMO is too much like a second job, and I can't justify it to myself.

If anyone wants to take over maintenance, please let me know. I would be more than happy to turn it over to a new maintainer.

Learning Aid is for all those times when you've just leveled up, retalented, or learned a new trade skill and you've had to page through your spellbook looking for all those new icons.

When you learn a new ability, or tradeskill, Learning Aid pops up a window with the new ability icon in it, ready to be dragged to your Action Bar.

Learning Aid filters the chat message spam that you get when swapping specs, unlearning talents, or learning several talents at once down to one or two lines.

Learning Aid adds a "Train All" button to tradeskill trainers.

Directions

1. Learn a new ability!
2. Drag it to your action bar!
3. Click the close box to dismiss the window!

You can also shift-click an ability button to create a chat link, just like from the spellbook.

Options

Right-click on the window's title, or click the lock icon to lock the window so it does not move.

Compatiblity

Learning Aid is compatible with World of Warcraft version 6.2.0.

Latest Changes

Updated TOC to 60200 for patch 6.2.0.
Added "Ignore Auto Attack" option.

Usable in normal game?

Can this be used in the normal game outside of the beta?
And this will be one of the first addons i get when WotLK comes out if it can't be used on normal realms.

Learning Aid is usable both in beta and on live realms. I'm glad you like it!

tried it on my new alt rogue, and it works fantastic you got me hooked to your addon m8.

finally the days of forgetting to put new learned spells on my action bars are over, was especially forgetfull thanks to the quick leveling blizz made, and it was a quick stop at the trainer and back to questing without actually seeing what i learned.

2 thumbs up

Brilliant.

No more looking at the chat frame for those pesky "You've learned a new ability: xxx" lines. ^^

This mod is core UI functionality in the making. No more trying to remember what the hell new talent or ability you got, no more spending time hunting for it in the spellbooks...

Intelligence is seeing the big picture and the complex answers, Genius is finding the simple answer. This mod is Pure. Liquid. Genius.

Does this let you know what spells have become available to you once you level? After leveling I would love to have something tell me "you can now learn XXXXXXX."

No, Learning Aid only activates when you actually learn an ability. I use TrainerSkills to tell me what I can learn when I level.

First of all, I love your addon, searching through my spellbook (especially pre-wotlk) to find my new spells was a huge pain.

Second, I found a bug, when I completed the quest that gives you the minipet Argent Squire and learned it, this happened:




Any clue on what may have caused this problem?


Thanks in advance, Fonjask

Thanks for the bug report! I've been seeing that behavior very rarely for a while, and I believe that finally I have the problem figured out. It seems to only appear when there's a great deal of server lag, which means I only managed to consistently reproduce it on patch day. It should be fixed in 1.07.1 which I hope to get out soon.

Cheers,
Jamash

Thanks for the quick reply, and it was indeed quite laggy when I got that Argent Squire (though I got those 2 LA displayed about 6 months before) .
