Not that I don't appreciate people using this addon but, I noticed a new addon that does a similar more calculated way of loot watching than this one does.
So, if you find you are wanting something more than what this addon offers take a look at http://www.wowinterface.com/download...-LootList.html which may have what you need. Or may not. I will however, still keep an eye on this addon and as long as I see people still using the addon I will keep it working.

It's been a long while but thought I would aprise users of this addon of a new find I made that will help make this a more versatile addon.
itemClasses = { GetAuctionItemClasses() } itemSubClasses = { GetAuctionItemSubClasses(i) } These functions will generate a list of currently available and localised item types and sub types. This would free up a lot of localised documentation in this addon. When I next make an update to this addon, which will be a while yet unless there are bugs people have found rofl, then I will add this change in. I will probably also add in extra tidying up from new functionality I have come across recently. Hard to say when this will be at present but look out for an update soon with a list of possible changes coming.

Rofl, just on the off chance people are still visiting here.
Think the changes are almost there. One more day should do it. During testing today I found some options that I needed to add to make it more useful. PlaySound - Option to turn off the sound alert ( especially for when it reports every kill ) ReportBeforeLoot - Now you can open the loot window and it will carry out the same test and tell you if the body has anything you are specifically looking for. It should work for boss fights in instances if you have items added to your wish list etc for upgrades. IgnoreList - This gives you an option to ignore specific items in the same way you can track specific items in your wish list. This was found to be a useful addtion for quest item tracking without the repeated reports of Ulduar Relics etc which are quest items but common drops. Everything seems to be working now but for the main reason for the change, incorporation of the option screen into the blizzard interface options screen. Now that I have the main options screen designed to fit inside the interface options screen incorporating the options shouldn't take long. So a task for tomorrow before raiding.

Well, part way to getting the options screen into the interface options section of the game.
Found out that the way I had the options framework set up wasn't compatible with the games options screen. A couple of days spent revising the options framework and I have that part finished. One step nearer to finishing that part in the next few days. I decided against the tabbed windows option as you can set up multiple sub option windows so I will split up the options accordingly. The item value sliders in one, the tracking and ignore type lists in another one and the wish list items in another one. A few more tweaks in the code once I have done that part and the functionality and the interface side of the addon should be communicating well enough to test and make sure that it works fine in 3.2. Once it has passed those tests I'll work on the extra additions as mentioned so hopefully in the next week or two a new version will be out. But I will keep you up to date.

Coming to Loot Alerter 3.01.00
I just wanted to give you a heads up on what I am planning to do with Loot Alerter.
1. Make sure it works fully with 3.2. 2. Options screen built into WoW Interface. 3. Options separated into tabbed windows that appear as options are checked. 4. Option to have the message appear before actually picking the item up for those that do not auto loot. 5. Adjust display options to allow on screen alert to appear using available addons such as Miks Scrolling Battle Text and Parrot. What I would like to know from users : 1. Is there anything else you would like to add to the feature list ? 2. Are there any other text display addons available that can be manipulated for use? Hopefully I will have a few weeks to make the relevant changes and test on the test realm before 3.2 goes live. But if not the existing addon works for the most part from the minimal test I made before doing the last update.

Well, sorry for the delay, been raiding alot recently with a fresh 80 so have been pretty busy. Anyway, I've just taken a look at the looting functions and it seems they only work when you are looting.
The Looting events also seem to either only apply to you physically looting yourself or the master looter having the addon themselves. So , unfortunately about the best I can do in my addon is to set up an option to be pre-alerted so to speak. The moment you open the loot window it can tell you if one of the items is what you want and display the link on the screen for you. Theoretically it should work but I won't know until I try. Of course, if you did find something else that does this then great ![]() With 3.2 not too far away now based on the background downloader I will try and add this feature into the 3.2 update along with a tabbed option screen as I am sure many of you wish it wasn't so big Also, I will try and incorporate a parrot display option for those that use that. As well as a way to configure which to use and where to display where applicable.If anyone has any other ideas then speak up ![]()

Hmm, not really sure there Nomad. This one is definitely an alert when you loot. If you have auto loot turned off its possible this could report what was in the loot window but only if you open the loot window and not someone else in the raid.
This addon actually makes a list of what was on the body before looting takes place ( if I remember rightly .. been awhile since I delved into the code ). It is only when you actually loot that this one reports the item. I might be able to tweak it to have an option to report before looting and see how that goes. As to an existing addon you might want to look into LootAlert which does something similar and may go that extra step and warn you before you loot. Oh, and if its the case that someone else is looting (Master Looter etc) then it may be possible to add that option in somewhere too and pick up what is linked in raid chat (assuming they do that all the time). Apologies for the delay in replying. Guess I didn't check this since you posted.

The idea is to have everything optional and will add other options as I know about them. MSBT is one I have installed so was easily implemented while working on the rest of the code. Parrot and SCT I have heard of but haven't used much or looked at their code to see how easy it is to implement. Sink2 I have never heard of myself so I have no idea how that works.
Thanks for the suggestions and I will look into them and work out a plan of action for the next update.

Instead of forcing the use of MSBT to get the warning messages, instead integrate the (standalone) Sink-2.0 library? Users can then choose from any output they want: MSBT, SCT, Parrot, the Blizzard UI error frame, the chat box & others.

Okay, finally got a working generic list creator routine running so will over the next week or two upgrade LootAlerter to utilise it. If there are any other changes that you would like incorporated now would be a good time to suggest them so I can include them.

I hope you are liking the addon so far.
I'm currently working on a way to cut down the coding somewhat. With all those lists, at present they are coded separately but theoretically they should be able to be coded with one call and pass a few unique values to decide the contents. Whilst I have been working on this 'test' list addon I have noticed that the lootalerter wishlist has some elements that were not changed after copying from the tracklist. I didn't notice it in testing as the 2 lists were small. I expect few people will notice it but those that have long wish and tracked lists will notice the bug somewhat more. I'll leave it as it is for the moment while I work on this new list functionality but let me know if you absolutely need that little bug fixed and I will change it and upload a fix for it.

Just to give you a heads up if you check back here now and then.
Working on version 2.01.00 which will introduce a new option to track items in a wish list. You can add items into the wish list by either entering the item ID found on places like wowhead or wowarmory or just type the localized name of the item. It has to be in your local language though as the value it tests against is already localized. How the latter will work in non English based languages I don't know. Just testing it at the moment and looks to be almost completion. I have decided to leave the normal tracking facility as account based and have the wish list character based.
