Fishing Buddy
-------------

Yet another fishing support add-on.

Support thread: Fishing Buddy

Features:
- 'Fish Watcher' lets you see the fish you've caught here before (or
the fish that you've caught in the current session)
- Display your current skill level and the time since you started fishing
- Choose your fishing outfit and change into it easily
- Support for automatically adding a lure to your fishing pole
- Full Titan Panel support
- myAddOns support
- Preliminary support for tracking 'cycle fish' such as the Nightfin
Snapper so you know when to go looking for them

Example commands:
/fishingbuddy or /fb
toggle the display of the Fishing Buddy window
/fb help
print the list of Fishing Buddy commands
/fb switch
wear your chosen fishing outfit, or change back

There are two actual add-ons -- the second one, OutfitDisplayFrame,
handles the pretty pane to set up your fishing outfit (it's next on
the list to be made into something more general that anyone can use).
The OutfitDisplayFrame addon can be safely left out if you have a
preferred equipment manager.

alt-clicking on an item in your outfit display will clear it

Silly stuff:
In addition to displaying the fishing bonus for your fishing outfit,
it also displays your 'style points' as inferred from Draznar's Fishing FAQ
Updated from duplicate postin: HERE.
Check there for updates if this falls behind.

Thanks to the authors of:

TackleBox -- still adding cool features to keep up with!
Impp's Fishing DB
QuickWeaponSwap

and many, many others!

Feel free to send comments to Sutorix on the Windrunner server.

Installation
------------

1. Unzip the 'FishingBuddyVERSION.zip' file
2. If your unzip program allows you to specify a location, then
unzip it into the "Interface/AddOns" folder contained in your
WoW folder (the location that WoW was installed)
3. If your unzip program doesn't let you specify the destination,
then find your WoW folder (where it was installed) and drag
the 'FishingBuddy' and 'OutfitDisplayFrame' folder into the
'Interface/AddOns' folder.

Do you have any addons enabled for that toon that aren't enabled on any of the others?

Is there any way to disable fish tracking? I've tried disabling fish watcher but it still adds it.

Auto cast non-op on 1 toon

For some reason, about 2-3 updates ago, FB will no longer enable the double click to cast on one of my toons. On my other 3, it works just fine. I have disabled / re-enabled the addon as well as de-selecting and re-selecting the options for casting, loot, etc. Any thoughts on why this might be happening? for now I added a task bar button to click on that toon.

Edit - I am using Bone Fishing Pole

If WoW crashes - it's WoW problem. Or your hardware/software. Plain and simple.
Run repair tool, run chkdsk, run memory test.

Could you send your SavedVariables/FB_TrackingFrame.lua to me at sutorixAThotmailDOTcom?

Thanks!

Smile [resolved] Issue with the minimap in v0.9.8m-Full

Right clicking the minimap button to turn on ClickToSwitch brings up this error message:
1x FishingBuddy-0.9.8k\FishingOptionsFrame.lua:584: attempt to call field 'UpdateMinimap' (a nil value)
FishingBuddy-0.9.8k\FishingOptionsFrame.lua:595: in function `func'
Interface\FrameXML\UIDropDownMenu.lua:575: in function `UIDropDownMenuButton_OnClick':
<string>:"*:OnClick":1: in function <[string "*:OnClick"]:1>

Locals:
ToggleSetting = <function> @ FishingBuddy\FishingOptionsFrame.lua:577:
n = "MinimapClickToSwitch"
c = nil


Am using the OutfitDisplayFrame for switching.

And the version number is at 0.9.8k - yes, I downloaded the 0.9.8m file

EDIT:
Problem gone with v0.9.8n

Smile [resolved] LibGraph-2.0 missing from v0.9.8m-Full

The directory FB_TrackingFrame is missing a directory LG with LibGraph-2.0.lua inside of it.

Temporary fix: Download LibGraph-2.0 from http://www.wowace.com/addons/libgraph-2-0/ - unzip the downloaded file, create the folder LG and place the file LibGraph-2.0.lua together with the .tga (image) files inside it so that the path becomes:
FB_TrackingFrame\LG\LibGraph-2.0.lua

EDIT:
Problem gone with v0.9.8n

New version is available at curse.com. For some reason it's not uploaded here. It supports all the new fishing poles and the new lure.

Bug

Just for the record, Not much tech to this one, I have acquired the Jeweled Fishing Pole.

http://www.wowhead.com/?item=45992


To my dismay , It seems that fishing buddy is just not recognizing the new pole as a fishing pole. I cannot use FB to help me with easy casts.

Is there any known fix to this or is it simply one of the new bugs?

Hopefully there's a way to fix this cuz I really love the new pole, But I also love Easy Casts with FB


Thanks.

jeweled fishing pole

This addon doesn't work with the jewelled fishing pole. It needs updating to accommodate that new pole.
