GreedBeacon  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 3.3.0.8-Beta
by: Tekkub [More]

GreedBeacon is a simple roll-monitoring addon. It does two things: block the "detailed loot roll" spam, and provide a chat link tooltip to pull up those blocked details.

"Detailed Loot Information" must be turned on in the default config, otherwise GreedBeacon cannot get the roll details.

To clarify aaalllen's post:

Every person that rolls need is getting two separate lines of data. One says their name in the first column, and "need" in the second column. The other says their name and "+ role bonus" in the first column, and their actual roll in the second column.

There's really no reason to show the first type of lines. Even if someone rolled need without a role bonus while others had it, I'd rather see their 1-100 roll than just "need" especially if it means seeing everyone twice.

4.3 LFR has some issues for me w/ the pop up just showing "Need" instead of the roll value. It's ok if it misses other people's rolls, but not really my own.

Some things are working properly:
* The chat log shows the compressed roll list and the winner
* The roll pop up opens
* I see "greed" selections on there when there were "need" rollers
* I see "+ role bonus"

EDIT:
i've noticed that some folks have multiple lines in that pop-up so it'd kind of working: one for "need" and another with a roll value

I'm using the german client and everytime some recieves loot in LfR I get "ERROR: No match found for ..." and there is no chat link. Disenchant rolls don't get blocked too.

Thanks, I'd downloaded it to try but haven't had chance to test it myself yet so figured I'd ask.

Does this still work in 4.3?
If yes does it work in the new LFR system?
If not would it be possible to update it to work with 4.3/LFR?

I also have this issue (german client) although the changelog indicates that this should be solved. is there anything i need to check?

i'm using the german client and in my opinion its because the "syntax" of a enchantingroll is different than that of a greed or needroll:

Code:
PLAYER hat für '[ITEM]' Entzauberung gewählt. -- Player selected enchant
Ihr habt für [ITEM] 'Gier' ausgewählt         -- I selected greed

Entzauberungswurf - 5 für [ITEM] von PLAYER   -- Enchantroll
Wurf für Gier: 15 für [ITEM] von PLAYER       -- Greedroll
would it be possible to add these specific phrases to the ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter?

The follow edit is totally optional! I've only provided it if and only if you wish to view Need rolls.

Open GreedBeacon.lua:

FIND:
Code:
			Debug("Supressing chat message", msg)
			return true
REPLACE WITH:
Code:
		--XRUPTOR EDIT, DO NOT FILTER OUT NEED MESSAGES!
		if not string.find(string.lower(msg), "need") then
			--IF NOT NEED THEN SURPRESS
			Debug("Supressing chat message", msg)
			return true
		end

Hey Tekkub,

First thanks for a great mod. I seriously was getting annoyed with all the loot roll spam on my screen. This mod is simple and to the point.

I only have one suggestion. Is it possible to add an alert notification in chat when someone rolls (only need, not greed) on an item before you roll on it? Maybe with an option or switch? That way it would display something like 'Blah Rolls Need on [Blah]'.

The only reason I'm asking is that sometimes I want to know if someone rolls need on an item before I roll on it. I usually make the choice at that point if I want to roll greed or need. Also there are times where I want to roll need on an item ONLY if someone else rolls need because they are trying to ninja it. The only way I would find out is actually after the roll, by that time it's already too late.

Thanks in advance!

Tekkub, just a few thoughts to make a great addon even better

A: Coloring of the rolling names according to class.
B: Minor intergration with Classloot, with some minor indication of which classes benefit from the item the most.
C: Maybe even a slightly different color text when the winner of the loot and classloot results mismatch (varied by "severity")
D: Lastly (and most lazily) a little clickable button of sorts that lets you output "raid wide" when someone does that...

This would allow people to quickly and easily identify ninjas, to ber reported to group/raid leaders for expulsion (provided it wasnt a mislick, and it doesnt happen again)

I know it would take a little work (and maybe coordination with Classloot) but it would really help make raiding experiences cleaner and less ninja free, and truly making it a "GreedBeacon"
