170 Boss wipe/kill entries are entirely dependant on Deadly Boss Mods being enabled and
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
171 up-to-date. The typical sequence of events for our usual raids goes like this:
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
172
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
173 We make four or five attempts on Baron Steamroller. As DBM registers that combat
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
174 ends, a <wipe> event is entered on the loot display along with the duration of the
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
175 fight. If the loot display is opened, the wipes will be visible with a light gray
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
176 background.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
177
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
178 After reminding the dps classes to watch the threat meters, we manage to kill
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
179 Steamroller. When DBM registers the win, a <kill> event is entered on the display
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
180 with a dark gray background.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
181 All previous <wipe>s are removed and collapsed into the <kill> event. The final
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
182 <kill> event shows the duration of the successful fight and the number of attempts
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
183 needed (or "one-shot" if we manage to be competent).
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
184
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
185 Sometimes this goes wrong, when DBM misses its own triggers. If DBM does not catch
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
186 the start of the boss fight, it can't register the end, so nothing at all is
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
187 recorded. If the fight was a win but DBM does not catch the victory conditions,
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
188 then DBM will (after several seconds) decide that it was a wipe instead. And
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
189 sometimes useful loot will drop from trash mobs, which DBM knows nothing about.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
190
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
191 For all those reasons, right-clicking on a "boss row" will display options for
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
192 +Insert new boss kill event>, and for toggling a <wipe> into a <kill>. We often
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
193 insert bosses named "trash" to break up the display and correct the forum markup

198 The first button underneath +Main> in the right-hand column displays the current
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
199 status of the addon. If it is disabled, then no recording, rebroadcasting, or
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
200 listening for rebroadcasts is performed. Any loot already recorded will be restored
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
201 across login sessions no matter the status.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
202
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
203 You can turn on tracking/broadcasting before joining a raid. If you join a raid
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
204 and the addon has not been turned on, then (by default) a popup dialog will ask for
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
205 instructions. (This can be turned off in the advanced <Options>.)
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
206
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
207 The addon tries to be smart about logging on during a raid (due to a disconnect or
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
208 relog). If you log in, are already in a raid group, and loot has already been
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
209 stored from tracking, it will re-enable itself automatically. It will not (as of
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
210 this writing) restore ancillary settings such as the tracking threshold.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
211
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
212 The intent of the addon design is that, after the end of a raid, all the generated
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
213 markup text is done, optionally saved (see "Generated Texts - Saved Texts"), and
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
214 then cleared from
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
215 storage altogether. As a result, if you login with restored loot information but
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
216 are not in a raid, the addon will do nothing on its own -- but will assume that
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
217 you've forgotten to finish those steps and will yammer about it in the chat window
|
|
farmbuyer@1

225 Full tracking records all loot events that fulfill these criteria:
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
226
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
227 1) The loot quality is equal to or better than what you have selected in the
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
228 +Threshold> drop-down.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
229
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
230 2) The loot is not one of the few items hardcoded to not be tracked (badges,
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
231 emblems, Stone Keeper Shards, etc).
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
232
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
233 3) <You can see the loot event.> More precisely, you need to be close enough
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
234 to the recipient of the loot to be able to see "So-And-So receives loot: [Stuff]"
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
235 in your chat window, even if you have those actual loot messages turned off.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
236
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
237 It is (3) that causes complications. A master looter can assign loot to anybody
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
238 anywhere in a raid instance, but the range on detecting loot events is much
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
239 smaller. If your raid does not use master looting then you merely need to be
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
240 close enough to the boss corpse, presuming that the winners will need to walk
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
241 over to get their phat epix.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
242
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
243 If you do use master looter, then you have two options: first, you can
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
244 require players
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
245 who might get loot to stay near the boss. You would then also need to stay near
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
246 the boss to detect the loot event. (This can be less hassle if you are also
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
247 the loot master.) The downside is that other players moving on to fight to the
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
248 next boss are doing so without the help of their teammates.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
249
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
250 The other option is to ask other players to also install Ouro Loot, and for
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
251 them to turn on the "Rebroadcasting" feature. Any loot events which they can
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
252 see will be communicated to you. Then it only becomes necessary for at least
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
253 one person to be close enough to the loot recipient to see the item awarded,
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
254 and you will record it no matter how far away you are -- even back in Dalaran.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
255
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
256 If you have Full Tracking enabled, then you are also automatically rebroadcasting.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
257 Having more than one player with Full Tracking turned on is probably a good
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
258 idea, in case one of the trackers experiences a game crash or is suddenly kidnapped

295 of Kilrogg. By default this is fairly standard BBcode. The format of the

299 The [url] choice defaults to using Wowhead. If you have the [item] extension

farmbuyer@1
|
300 for your BBcode installed, you can use either of those choices too. The "by ID"
|
|
farmbuyer@1

301 variant is good for heroic ToC/ICC items that share names with nonheroic items,

315 Pro tip #1: if something has happened on the main <Loot> tab which cannot be
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
316 changed directly but would generate incorrect text, you can click this tab to
|
|
farmbuyer@1

317 generate the text right away. Then edit/move the text as needed. When you
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
318 close the display or click back on the <Loot> tab, your edited text will be

355 The <History> tab maintains a list of all loot. It is intended to help answer

356 questions such as "When was the last time PlayerX won something?" and "How much stuff
|
|
farmbuyer@7

357 has PlayerY gotten lately?" The history tab is, by design, not as configurable

360 Loot history is the only "live" data tab which persists across the +Clear Loot> command.
|

farmbuyer@7

361 For this reason, very little information is stored: only the recipient, the item,
|

farmbuyer@8

362 and a textual timestamp. Boss names, offspecs, and other notes are not preserved.
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
363

farmbuyer@7

364 The default history window shows the most recent item received by each person. It
|

|
365 is sorted with the most recent loot at the top, towards older loot at the bottom.
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
366 You can click the column headers to rearrange the rows, but doing so repeatedly can
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
367 lead to odd display issues.
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
368
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
369 Left-clicking a row will change the window to display all recorded loot for that
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
370 player. On that display, right-clicking any row will return to showing the most

farmbuyer@7

371 recent single item for all players.
|
|
farmbuyer@7

372
|

farmbuyer@7

373 Histories are maintained per-realm. This refers to the realm you are on when the
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
374 loot drops, not the realm of the player receiving it (in the case of cross-realm
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
375 groups). If you play multiple characters on the same realm, history will accumulate
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
376 across all your raids. To change the displayed realm, use the dropdown menu in
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
377 the lower right corner.

farmbuyer@7

379 The +Regenerate> button permanently erases the history of the displayed realm, and
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
380 creates fresh entries using whatever loot information is currently on the <Loot> tab.
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
381 Be aware that the <Loot> tab does not track realms, so if you have gathered data
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
382 for players on realm A, but are displaying realm B when you click the Regenerate button,
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
383 then your history for realm B will be... very odd.
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
384
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
385 +Clear Realm History> and +Clear ALL History> are used to periodically wipe the
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
386 slate clean. They do not generate any new entries from existing loot.
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
387
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
388 +Clear Older> deletes history information for all items not shown in the "most recent

|
farmbuyer@7

389 loot" display. It is another good periodic maintenance step, but does not discard
|

farmbuyer@7
|
390 as much data as the other actions.
|
|
farmbuyer@7

391
|
|
farmbuyer@7

392 Note: the first time you display the histories during a game session, you will
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
393 likely see several items listed as +UNKNOWN>. This is not a bug; these items are
|
|
farmbuyer@7
|
394 simply not in your local game cache. WoW will automatically retrieve the missing

farmbuyer@7

395 data after several seconds, but the display will not update until the next time
|

farmbuyer@7

396 the History tab is shown. Starting in WoW 4.0, the local game cache is not preserved

473 If you relog (or get disconnected) while in a raid group, behavior when you log

474 back in can be surprising. If you have already recorded loot (and therefore

farmbuyer@1

475 the loot list is restored), then OL assumes it's from the current raid and should
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
476 reactivate automatically in full tracking mode. If you were tracking but no
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
477 loot had dropped yet (and therefore there was nothing *to* restore), then OL
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
478 will pop up its reminder and ask again. Either way, if you were only broadcasting
|
|
farmbuyer@1

farmbuyer@1

481 The saved texts feature does exactly that: only saves the generated texts, not

488 info. Doing that on the initial "mark as xxx" action is... tricky.
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
489
|
|
farmbuyer@1

490 The generated text tries to only list the name of the instance if it has not
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
491 already been listed, or if it is different than the instance of the previous
|
|
farmbuyer@1
|
492 boss. If you relog, the "last printed instance name" will be forgotten, and
|

farmbuyer@1

493 you'll see redundant raid instance names appearing in the text.

494

farmbuyer@1

495 After a boss wipe, multiple broadcasting players releasing spirit more than

496 several seconds apart can cause spurious "wipe" entries (of zero duration) on

497 the loot grid. The surefire way to avoid this is to not release spirit until
