TBag-Shefki
TBag-Shefki   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
This is the long awaited update to TBag that fixes a number of bugs.

TBag is a WoW Addon that provides an alternative bag and bank interface. It was built by modifying Engbags an addon who has essnetially the same functionality is missing some of the features of TBag.

Talos the original author of Tbag his this to say about it when he released it:

"In addition to the auto-sorting you've come to know and love, I've added many new features, including searching for items (in mail, etc.) You can also see and use the original default UI bags, which have slots free overlaid on top of them. There are also many convenience features, like highlighting new items, colored spotlighting, and purchase bank bags without having to unload the addon. A visual edit mode allows you to rearrange categories to your taste, and an advanced customization window enables you to completely configure every aspect of TBag."

This is a modification of his 070123 release for WoW 2.0.3. The modifications were done by Shefki. See the Changelog file for details of the changes I made. The ToDo.txt file consists of ToDo items that were found in the original TBag release. Some of them are not terribly relevent to my my intentions, some I'm unclear on what he meant and others seem to have already been fixed. See my Todo List below.

Getting Started

TBag can only "see" something you've seen, so for every character:

1) Open your bags 2) Go to the bank 3) Check your mail 4) View your body 5) Open all your trade windows

This allows you to view the bag and bank contents of your characters at any time (sorted according to their trade skills) by clicking the name dropdown in the upper right. It also enables you to do a full item search from the search textbox just to the left of the name dropdown.

config and memory usage

Tbag uses more memory than any other addon I have, and I have an addon for everything...

Is there a way to remove some categories? Such as...putting all potions/flasks/buff food, in the same category? I can't seem to figure out how to reassign. When I try to change something I get an error message. Usually just telling me "nil value".

You can do this already. Though the steps to do it are probably pretty much undocumented.

Make a new category
1) /tbag config
2) Scroll to the bottom and click Add new Cat
3) You'll see two lines with just UNKNOWN. On the next to last one put in whatever category name you want.
4) Click Assign cats (you'll see something like TBag: Unassigned category YOURCAT has been assigned to slot 1).
5) Click close

Assign your new category to your desired bar
1) Open up your inventory window and click on the gear icon (to go into edit mode)
2) Right click on the box labeled 1.
3) Click on Move: YOURCAT
4) Left click on the bar you wish to put YOURCAT on.

Assign an item to your new category
1) While in edit mode (click gear icon if you're not already but you would be if you're following along) right click on an item.
2) Mouse over Assign item to category and then Categories within bar N where N is the bar you assigned the category you wanted to use to.
3) Click on your category.

Repeat the item assignment for every item you want to move.

For the advanced user you can write your own rules in /tbag config instead of using the individual item assignment, but this is probably easier for one offs.

Keep in mind that if you want to pickup sorting changes from the default rules when you do /tbag resetsorts you'll lose the specific item assignments and will have to do them again, though your custom created category will continue to exist and be assigned to the bar even though it won't show under the rules. I realize this is inconvenient, eventually I'll get the new config UI done and we won't have this issue anymore.

/tinv config

Make sure Number of Horizontal Bars is set to a value that evenly divides 32 or however many bars you are actually using. 1,2,4,8 are generally safe values.

I love this addon! Especially the search function, that's simply a must have! Along with all the other nice features ofcourse.

No idea. I certainly can open my bags in combat. How are you opening them and if it's a keybinding what is the key bound to exactly in keybindings?

Probably additional memory needed for more and more data that we have to keep around for tradeskills. 3.1 added a bunch of recipes. I know this system uses more memory than I'd like at this time. It needs a redesign to shave off some memory use.

However, people really worry too much about memory use. On my machine WoW uses around 500M resident and 1G virtual. My addons are using a pidly 75M. The real concern is CPU time and memory is often a tradeoff needed to lower CPU time. Cache or store more information in memory and you speed up the execution of the program. CPU time is really what causes the game to run slow.

Unfortunately, the only easy method we have of checking performance of addons is memory... So a lot of people jump to the conclusion that the addon using a lot of memory is the poor performer.

I know that TBag uses a lot more memory than a lot of other addons. A lot of this is a consequence of what it does. Most addons are doing not a whole lot more of than displaying a UI based on data returned by Blizzard's APIs. TBag has to cache that data so you can see it on other characters and so on.

In edit mode move them to an empty bar, right click on the bar and choose Hide Items assigned to this bar. Bar 30 is usually not used for anything else.

This has been suggested before, it's not a bad idea but it complicates things. Maybe some day I'll get around to it.

Suggestions...

I have been using TBag for over a year now & its great as I play dual-screen with the rendered area on the left and the map/bag/questlog/chat on the right screen.

Not sure if your open to suggestions, but here are some I thought of as optional settings...
  1. Remove all the empty slots. I can see how many free slots with the bag icons at the bottom of the TBag window and on the main bag icon on the main toolbar.
  2. "Super-stack" - It's great that TBag automatically stacks items to save bag space, but to save screen space can full stacks be combined? (instead of 3 stacks of 20 fish, you have 1 stack of 60 fish).
    You could change the colour of the text or do something else so that it is understood that it is a "super-stack"
Anyway, not sure if these had already been suggested?

Thanks for the continued development of this great addon that I always recommend to my friends & guildies.
