Is this a mod doing this...?

Every time I visit a vendor (and this last time, every time I sold something), this line will appear in my chat box:

skipping akz_DoMerchant

I have no idea what's causing it. Thought I'd post to see if someone knows.

Sounds like Yes an AddOn is doing that. You can find out by disabling those AddOns that you think are the culprit (anything to do with vendors, or selling items would my targets). Log in and sell some vendor trash. If the line appears, buy back the item and move on to the next AddOn. You can enable/disable AddOns via the AddOns screen accessed from your Character Selection screen. You can also use mods like MCP (or its variants) to disable/enable AddOns then do a ReloadUI (/rl), however some AddOns resist this, requiring you to relog.

the obvious question would be do you use an addon to sell stuff? Something like autoprofit?

Meh, I use VendorValues, and tried disabling that, to no avail. I ask before I do the entire disable thing mainly because I have probably 40+ addons on my list >_< Also, I even tried a Windows search in my Addons directory to find any file that had that string actually IN the file...and it came up with squat.

Anyways, I'll just have to try the disable thing. Oui. That's gonna be work.

A quick google search for "akz_DoMerchant" leads me to believe "Achat Poison" is the culprit.

Do you have this addon, or any variant thereof?

Lywellyn · 05-28-07, 01:14 AM

Nope. Have no uses for poison mods (yet).

Upon finally finding out which one it is, though....eheh. Shoulda known. It's my WOWReader plugin for the Allakhazam site.

akz = Allakhazam. Yay. I posted it at their forums.

Heh, sorry.

Google has failed me.

It's nice that you've figured out the problem though.

FYI: Windows text search by default does not search .lua (or most) file extensions.
