What is Auctioneer Advanced?
Auctioneer Advanced is a ground-up rewrite of the Auctioneer code in order to provide a number of enhancements to the end-user, including:
* CompactUI - An alternative to the standard auction browsing interface
o Displays more auctions per page
o Displays more data per auction
o Allows you to change column width by Left-Click and dragging the column to the size of your liking
o Provides a percentage comparison with the Market Value Statistic of your choice
o Allows auctions to be color coded by price level
o Allows multiple sorting options not available on the standard interface
* Appraiser - An alternative way to post your auctions
o Remembers your preferences for bid/buyout prices, stack sizes, and number of listings to post per item
o Allows queuing of auctions, so you can instruct it to list hundreds of auctions and alt-tab while it does so for you
o Allows you to specify the value price of your choice and remembers your selection
o Displays competing listings, the age of the data, and allows you to sort these listings and refresh them easily
o Provides a scrollable list of all auctionable items in your bags and allows you to select them for listing quickly
o Provides a "Match Competition" setting which will automatically undercut your competition when posting auctions, within your parameters
o Provides the ability to "Switch UI", or to use a more Auctioneer Classic posting methods
o Allows you to change column width by Left-Click and dragging the column to the size of your liking
o Allows you to post multiple auctions with the single click of the Batch Post button
Alt+Left-Click == Refresh Pricing of all Batch Postable Items
Shft+Alt+Left-Click==Trial Posting, prints the pricing to your chat window, but does not post any items, allowing you to verify settings
Ctrl+Shft+Alt+Left-Click==Post all items that have the "Allow Batch Posting" checkbox selected (located at the top of the item information pane)
* Stat modules - These are customizable statistic modules which can be added to provide different types of pricing information through Auctioneer
o Stat-Simple - A straight average of the last 100 listings seen per item, with averages across 3, 7, and 14 days
o Stat-StdDev - Similar to Stat-Simple, this ignores listings that are outside of one standard deviation from the mean.
o Stat-VendMarkup - This allows you to calculate a listing price based on a markup of the vendor sell price.
o Stat-WOWEcon - This uses the outside addon WOWEcon to provide purchase-based data from it's database.
o Any other stat module that you or others wish to create can be easily added to auctioneer functionality
* BeanCounter - An associated addon that tracks your bid, postings, and mail to help you determine your profitability
o Creates journal entries when you bid, buy, post, or retrieve AH mail.
o Provides a searchable interface that can display all activity or only certain items
o Allows you to change column width by Left-Click and dragging the column to the size of your liking
* BottomScanner - An associated addon that prompts you when it sees auctions that fit your criteria for bidding
o Uses evaluators that you can customize for various desired deals such as:
+ EvalResale - Prompts you for deals based on discount from the market value, AH fee, and expected relistings
+ EvalDisenchant - Prompts you for deals based on disenchanting armors and weapons
+ EvalProspecting - Prompts you for jewelcrafting deals from prospecting ores
+ EvalVendor - Prompts you for auctions listed below vendor sell price
o Scans the last and first page of the AH if configured to do so
o Piggybacks on your AH scans if allowed to do so
Change Log - Auctioneer Advanced 5.0.0 Suite (Preview)
Full Changelog via our main site, AuctioneerAddOn.Com
- Fully tested and functional with World of Warcraft patch 2.4
x ASER-18: only the searcher will now be passed as a buy reason, not the bid/buy
x APPR-139: Fixes error on attempting to post damaged item
User will now be advised they may need to repair the item
x ASER-12: Reason is now sent along with bid request
Reason is sent along with AucAdv's "bidplaced" callback
Note: nothing in tooltip yet
x ADV-200: adds callback "bidplaced"
arg1 is "itemlink;seller;count;buyout;price;reason"
x BCNT-151: The GetInboxInvoiceInfo(n) api seems to have changed in 2.4. Instead of always returning nil on player name until retrieved by server it will return "" . This would make beancounter think the name had been returned and we would process the mail instead of waiting.
x BTMS-129: Hitting "No" button will no longer autoignore way too much. We now divide the Auction price down by the stack size like we should. Doh.
x ASER-16: Adds "buy first" button
Button uses bid/buy reason from searcher Also removes item from list when bought by any button
x ADV-125: Fixes bid/buy confirm box sizing issue
x AAMU-27: Adds AutoMagic to the build.conf file

x ASER-15: Allows optional bid/buy choice in searchers
Also tidies up the table layout a bit
x ADV-216: Big fix to ProtectWindow
This fixes the protect window code to check on first AH open for what the setting should be, and set it that way if necessary. It also fixes the code that handles what to do if we change the setting with the AH open.
x ADV-126: Big fix to ProtectWindow
This fixes the protect window code to check on first AH open for what the setting should be, and set it that way if necessary. It also fixes the code that handles what to do if we change the setting with the AH open.
x ADV-134: fixes stupid typo with previous commit
x APPR-134: Streamlines the code that runs when an item is selected
The Appraiser tab should be a lot more responsive now
x ADV-126: Removed buggy OnLoad code
Code that cause either window protection or appraiser, but not both to be there has been removed. Window Protection does not currently turn on until you toggle the function in the Config menu.
x ADV-219: Stores deposits in the cache by itemID, not sig
x APPR-116: Moved "Switch UI" button to top of Appraiser frame
Also moved "age" text anchor accordingly.

x ADV-213: Reverts changes made in r2989, which are no longer needed subsequent to changes made in r3029 for ADV-213.
x ADV-213: Changed the Active.xml generation scripts so that the AucAdvanced.EmbeddedModules table is present before any of the modules are loaded.
x ADV-121: Now applies setting when AA is loaded
Added a check in CoreMain.lua's OnLoad() to set up window protection if we've previously turned it on, and fixed a typo in the comments of CoreUtil.lua.
x Fixes ENX-35: When hsp and valFive are nil or zero, fall back to baseline value, this enables autoDE to work without auctioneer (either version) loaded
x ETT-15: Items set with GameTooltip:SetHyperlink() will now be caught by EnhTooltip. Thanks to Shefki for fixing both this issue and ETT-14.
x ETT-14: Fixes issues when anchoring a tooltip on a frame who's scale differs from the UIParent scale.
x APPR-93 Cont: The scrollframe for the classic style UI has been moved to the new column width system.
Archived Versions - Auctioneer Advanced 5.0.0 Suite (Preview)
The difference between a bag mod and Appraiser is the actual movement of the items- the bag mods simply "muck" with the display of your bags while Appraiser actually moves your items into the AH.
The sound became more noticeable with the addition of the Auction Magic plug-in, because of how it procures the posting fee information when you visit the AH, but has been around for a while now.
Keep an eye out- we have the noise, and do not really like it, ourselves.
Ha, believe me, some of us feel the old issue too. =)

Originally posted by Gaenjin heh, thats why I use Advanced... that Appraiser is the shiznitz. What you now call "Classic", was only useful to me for the Informant... at least thats all I really used it for back when you guys first developed Auctioneer. Other modules of Advanced are useful I suppose, but I haven't explored those yet.
So the sound issue has existed for a while? I honestly did not notice it until I installed this Advanced Update, and I assumed it was due to the fact that it automatically opens my bags. Inventory addons like Onebag, etc. do not blast sound, so I assumed it was a bug of Auctioneer. The pause I'd noticed, but not the sound. Maybe I'm just getting old. Between the noise and the pause, I thought maybe my UI was just short of crashing, but all the loading and stuff makes sense.
Yes, TipTac is unfortunately one of the few that tend to cause issues. There is an interplay between the two addons that causes the behavior, but neither causes issues when used alone.
Feel free to put in a request for the Tiptac author to visit us sometime in our IRC channel, via the top bar of AuctioneerAddOn.Com. As long as someone is around, we will be happy to work with them to sort out what we can, both, do to "fix" the issue.
With Advanced, all of the various "extras" have not been added, hence the alpha/Preview status. Our volunteer developers tend to work on issues which our end users display an interest. To register your interest, visit our "trouble ticket system", http://Jira.Norganna.Org , quickly create a user ID, and vote for the ticket requesting that the ability to embed data within the original tooltip be returned. http://jira.norganna.org/browse/ADV-87
By the way, the tooltips really should not overlap- what tooltip addon are you using to cause such behavior?

The "cacophony" has been around since Blizzard messed with some sound functions a few patches ago. We are looking into ways to mute the sound, but it may well not be possible- we shall see.
As for the pause, that is due to all of the modules needed to display the Auctioneer Advanced-enhanced Auction House window for your use. The pause only occurs once per session upon your first AH use- Auctioneer Classic actually added the delay to the game start up by default, so that is most likely why you would not have noticed it there. Not to mention that, with Classic, you need to manually move all of the items into Appraiser, and with Auctioneer Advanced, that is all done for you.[/b]

All versions of Auctioneer function perfectly well on the Mac, as well as Windows and the various emulators running over *ux.
In general, recommend that you download directly from the main site, http://AuctioneerAddOn.Com/dl/ , then select "Auctioneer Advanced Suite" or if you want both versions, select the "Full Suite". **Note, if you do not want both versions, ensure you delete the folders pertaining to the unwanted or unused version.
The full installation instructions, accessed via http://Wiki.Norganna.Org/Installing, list the files to remove if you are upgrading- obviously, if you have never installed Auctioneer previously, then there will be no Auctioneer files that need to be removed. =)
Exit the World of Warcraft game completely.
Simply download the current version to your desktop.
Uncompress/Unzip the file-
The "Full Suite" contains sixteen (16) folders that you will then place in the ..\WorldofWarcraft\Interface\AddOns folder.
The "Auctioneer Advanced Suite", when unzipped, will contain fifteen (15) folders that you will then place in the ..\WorldofWarcraft\Interface\AddOns folder.
After moving the folders, start World of Warcraft as usual and then visit the main Addon manager, accessed via a button in the lower left of the Character Selection screen.
Ensure that all of the Auctioneer-related items have a gold checkmark in the checkbox.
Use the list from the installation instructions in order to discern which AddOns pertain to Auctioneer.
Ensure that the "Load Out of date Addons" checkbox has a checkmark.
**If you do not see any Auctioneer-related items in the AddOn Manager, then some error occurred along the way- simply go back to the beginning of the full installation instructions and start again. All of the compressed files have been verified on numerous systems and environments, so there is no other issue possible. By repeating the steps, in full, you ensure that the download is not corrupted, et cetera.
Please be sure to visit the main site and review the message boards and the wiki for tons of valuable information- http://WWW.AuctioneerAddOn.Com/.
Happy Auctioneering,
Nikk

Edit: Some small changes due to hardware issue that necessitated reboot of the system whilst typing response.
The AuctioneerAddOn.Com "membership" simply requires that you click a link in an email that is automatically generated- a step to help ensure you are not a bot. =)
As for the sound issue, that is caused because Auctioneer Advanced is actually grabbing all of the items in your bags that are auctionable and placing them into the Appraiser Frame. This allows the pricing to be determined, including the posting fees.

Originally posted by Gaenjin I think I have enough info now to post about my sound issue with this Adv Suite. I don't recall this issue occuring with the previous Adv. Suite version, because I noticed it immediately after I upgraded, so I removed my Addon and WTF folders and I tested with clean and fresh WTF (deleted config.wtf file) and clean and fresh Addons folders, and compared Auctioneer Auc Advanced Suite, against Auc Advanced and Auc Classic.
This sound issue only occurs on Auc Advanced Suite, and I tried to isolate which addon was its cause, but found that it occured with only the Auc-Adv (core), Stubby and Enhtooltip modules enabled, so it must be one of the embeds that are installed with the Advanced Suite, but not installed with the Auc Advanced package.
The issue: The first time I click on an Auctioneer and open the Auctioneer UI, I get a cacaphony of sounds. It almost sounds like the mouseover sounds of every item in my inventory are being played at once, along with the Auctioneer "bell".
If I close and open the UI, all I hear is the bell. The only time I hear this "cacaphony of sounds" is after a log out, then when I open the UI for the first time.
There is also a big pause when I first open the UI, that does not occur again, until after I log out and log back in... I am not sure if this is related, but that pause occurs on the Auc Advanced as well... I don't recall seeing the pause on Classic.
I'd appreciate it if you passed this along to your developers. I wanted to post this on your site, but the membership signup appears to take time for validation, and I've spent a few hours investigating this and would rather get my WoW installation back to normal and get on with my gameplay.

As per the posts at the main site, http://Forums.Norganna.Org/4/ , you open the options screen, go to core options and uncheck the box next to Show Post Summary Scan.Options can be found via the Configure button on the top right of the Appraiser Frame or via the wee Auctioneer button on the SlideBar, usually located just below the Minimap. Specifically -> Core Options - General - UnCheck "Show End of Scan Summary" You can also redirect all of the Auctioneer Advanced output to any chat window, General->Preferred Output Window-> pick one.
Happy Auctioneering,

every time i open the AH, and i can't seem to figure out any way to shut it up.
You can access Enchantrix Barker via the Enchantrix button on the SlideBar menu, installed by default just below the minimap. The current method is to only allow the barking of Enchants that the Enchanter has the materials to complete.
There is a ticket in to change the methodology, but since Enchantrix obtains recommended Barked prices from the materials on hand- there is not much we can do.
The main thrust of Enchantrix Barker is to automatically set the pricing of Enchantments for the user, based on the user's chosen mark-up percentage. One thought was to simply allow the user to enter prices and such, but there are all ready other AddOns that do such things.
Hope this sheds some light on your query,
Nikk

Yet another release with more goodies, such as the ability to "update the pricing of all items in the Appraiser" window as a group and fixes for issues such as the ipairs bug.
Also, if you do not read the changelog, the middle tab when viewing an AddOn here at WoWI, would suggest that you do so. There are some relatively big additions- such as using CTRL+Left Click to selectively scan the highlighted categories and much, much more. The full changelog is accessible via our main site at AuctioneerAddOn.Com.
What you now call "Classic", was only useful to me for the Informant... at least thats all I really used it for back when you guys first developed Auctioneer. Other modules of Advanced are useful I suppose, but I haven't explored those yet.
