KC_Items 0.93. Preview and release thread. - Page 3

When I am in IF and I click on an item from the chat box ( I.E some says "WTS [ x item ] and i click on it, the information about the item comes up, but when I click the "x" to close the info windows, if i mouse over ANYTHING that would have an info box associated with it, that last item pops up again. The only way I have been able to get it to stop is log out and back in. Has anyone else had the expierence??

that sticky window? it's not that stubborn for me, I just randomly click some things and hit Esc a couple times and it vanishes.

And it's not all the time that it happens. i haven't narrowed it down to one or two things just yet

strikehere · 10-22-05, 07:07 AM

I'm having the same issue, but it happens on any item that I select the info on no matter where I am and it keeps popping up. I haven't figured out how to eliminate the error

When I try to link Legendary quality items like "Sulfaras, Hand of Ragnaros" and "Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker", I always get disconnected from the game. This never happens when linking epic quality items or items of lower quality.

Is this a known bug in 0.93 Beta 1a?

Kaelten · 10-22-05, 05:27 PM

To everyone who is experiancing a 'sticky' bug, I'm not sure what is causing that, I do not have that error on my local machine. This leads me to believe that there is another addon that's interfering with my tooltip funcitons.

And in regards to the legendary items, for some reason it seems to do this for pretty much everyone, not a KC_Items bug, just blizzard, I'm thinking that Legendary and up have stricter Caching rules.

I don't know if this was posted yet. Too many pages to read.

Anyway, the command line change is a bit much. We really need a way to open the link window with a simple command. /kci linkview was a bit much in 0.92 and prior but now with 0.93 it's /kci linkview open .. too long. Is there anyway to get a short command line option added? Something like /kicll or /kcilv? Something for just opening the window that's short and sweet.

I'll look into it, but you know that there is a key binding available as well? I use ` to open mine.

Barabas · 10-23-05, 10:20 PM

Hi,

just to add a note regarding linking legendary Items.
If i link them from KC_Items Linkview I get disconnected. Everytime.Reproducable.

If I link the same Item from Link Wrangler i don't get disconnected.
To be precise...
1. Open LinkView.
2. Search e.g. Sulfuras
3. Left-Click to get a sticky-Tooltip from Link Wrangler.
4. Relink the Item to every Channel including Guild and whisper
Result: No disconnect.

Linking the Item from LinkView to a chat, it doesn't matter which one leads to a disconnect.

Hope to help you with this issue..

Greets,

bara

No, I did not know. lol
I'll have to look into that. Not sure what the fark I'm going to use, but I'll look around
(WAY too many keybindings in WoW... I need a 208 key keyboard).

Did the last beta update include any bidbroker functionality for the AuctionBroker module? I can't wait for that feature!

Foosh · 10-27-05, 03:42 PM

Not sure if this will help anyone,.. I had a similar problem, where any item link I clicked on in my chat window would keep popping up, no matter what I did. Turned out Enhanced Tooltip was causing it for me. If you have it, and don't need it, remove it, see if it helps.

I'm nevertheless disconnected!

I have used Auctioneer in the past, but swaped to KCI_Items because it offers more than just that.

I'm missing one small feature. I'd like to see "stacks in lot off x" in the tool tip.
I loved this

Thanks

Hey, sorry to ask a question that may have been already (and SUPER sweet mod by the way. I used to use lootlink and my interface slowed down to a crawl after a while), but is there a way to change the money reporting in the tooltip from letters (c,s,g) to the pictures of it? Not a big deal, just would be cooler for me

Thanks a lot for this!

Kaelten · 11-28-05, 10:13 AM

The issue with the picture symbols is that there is only one of those on the tooltip by default so I could have 1 thing have that but the rest would have to be different. I could try to do a dirty hack to get around this, and I do eventually plan to but its not on the top of my todo list yet.

Zorle · 12-22-05, 02:18 AM

Just wondering when the database will be upadated with the new loot.

Kaelten · 12-22-05, 09:01 AM

Soon (TM)

svartalfimposter · 02-25-06, 07:23 PM

Kael,

I love your work, and I'd like your advice/opinion on my circumstance. I use KC_Items mainly because I use KCET, but I also use linkview database to look up items. I also use Mobinfo and am intruiged by the soon-to-be item database support they are implementing for ItemSync. I'm wondering if I should get rid of KC_Items and take up ItemSync instead, in the interests of economising my addons.

What do you think?

Kaelten · 02-25-06, 09:06 PM

well to be honest, I don't know. I would be curious to ask what info he could be getting from Itemsync in regards to mob health.

I also would wonder if he could add the same support for KC_Items.

On the side note, if you wished to use ItemSync instead of the linkview KCI all you'd really have to do is delete the linknet and linkview folders. That would remove the linkview window and also the active search gathering. That would keep the funcitonality you like to use in KCI without bloating your system with redundent parts.

KC_Items was designed in the mind frame that flexability is a Good Thing and I won't force functionality that you don't want on you.

now on a side note, I think KCI is a better mod than IS, but then again, I'm biased. If I didn't think that way I probably wouldn't spend my time working on .94 (which will be coming soon its 95% ready for release). KCI is going to ship with a master db with almost 42k items. more than 25k of those have sell values added in. The amazing thing is this database takes less than 400kb in your savedvariables file and only ~1MB in memory. Of course you don't have to use that db, but it is there if you want it.

Here is a couple of teaser shots for KC_Items.

svartalfimposter · 02-26-06, 11:13 AM

Interesting features you have there, now I'm really going to have to think about which I want.

It seems that Mobhealth is storing loot info;

Quality - the quality of items that are dropped by the mob
Cloth drops - the number of times cloth has dropped on the mob
Avg Coin Drop - average amount of money dropped by the mob
Avg Item Value - average vendor value of items dropped by mob
Total Mob Value - total sum of avg coin drop and avg item value
Loot Items - all loot items dropped by a Mob can be recorded
