  • About Fizzwidget Hunter's Helper
  •  

Really, I�m not one to gallivant about the wilderness trying to make friends with beasts� at my size, it�s a good way to get eaten! Besides, keeping a full stock of bits & bibbles for your critter can be terrible for your cash flow. But a Hunter friend of mine managed to convince me there�d be good money in outfitting such outdoorsy types, and before I knew it my workbench was cluttered with all sorts of animal-seeking, food-measuring, and pet-minding contraptions.

This gadget couldn�t be any simpler to use: point it at a beast you see in the wild, and its zootropic neurowave scanner will analyze the critter�s noggin and tell you what, if any, new tricks it can teach you.* Know what you�re looking for, but not sure where to look? It�ll help with that, too � I�ve pre-programmed it with an extensive database on creature behavior (straight from the Encyclopedia Azerothica), easily indexed by skill.

* Not recommended for use by elderly gnolls.

### Features

When you mouse over a beast in the world, the tooltip will show which abilities a Hunter could learn after taming it. (Or no additional info if the beast doesn�t have any known abilities.)

If you�re currently playing a hunter, the abilities will be colored according to whether you�ve already learned them: green for abilities you have yet to learn, and gray for those you already know. Hunter�s Helper will notice when you learn new abilities and will automatically refresh its index whenever you open the Beast Training window. (If you already know a few abilities, you should open you Beast Training window the first time you play after installing Hunter�s Helper.)

Need to know where to find new abilities for your pet? Type (for example) /huntershelper find Bite 6 to get a list of beasts known to have that ability. Results are sorted by zone, with those areas closest to (or most accessible from) your current location first. (The list cuts off after four zones if you look for an ability found on a wide variety of beast types.)

Hunter�s Helper also notifies you in chat if you tame a beast whose skillset isn�t what was expected. Please contact me so I can update Hunter�s Helper with corrected information!

    http://files.filefront.com/GFW_HuntersHelperrar/;7650580;/fileinfo.html

    this is 2.1 version he had on his website before it went down i put it on filefront for ppl to get I have all the mods updated for 2.1 from his website.


    http://www.fizzwidget.com/

    this is his main website where he hosts his mods however for some reason its been down for past 4-5 days now. There were 2.1 updates done of all his mods. Depending on which version you have you could simply change the TOC file number from 20003 to 20100 and it should work fine.

    Don't know if I have outdated version or not, I updated it recently but will do agian. But it says you can leanr 'prowl 1" from hulking mountain lions in Alterac Mountains. This is not true, it can only be learned from the regular mountain lions in the area.

    Hi, I started to play my hunter (Lvl 60) again after TBC came out. When I log in with my hunter I get an error message:

    Interface\AddOns\GFW_HuntersHelper\HuntersHelper.lua:38: attempt to concatenate local 'version' (a nil value)

    I use GFW_HuntersHelper version 2.02.

    Any ideas what I could do? I play on a German client.

    Are there plans to update this mod with the new Beast information from Burning Crusade?

  • Feb. 12, 2007, 10:08AM (1 year, 3 months ago)

    I noticed some errors in localisation_BeastNames.lua for the german localisation. Blizzard changed lots of names a short time ago, for example "Stranglethorn-Tiger" would now be "Schlingendorntiger". I'd be glad if you could rewrite the german localisation. Thank you :)

    /cast Feed Pet /use foodname

    ie for me I have brokentooth and i use roasted quail, so my macro is:

    /cast Feed Pet /use Roasted Quail

    Easy as that!

  • Dec. 9, 2006, 10:58AM (1 year, 5 months ago)

    How do I make a macro button to use feedomatic to feed my pet?

    In the old version you could just put

    /fom feed

    onto a macro button and it would work, but now this doesnt work and the only options i see are to assign it to a hotkey.

  • Feb. 27, 2006, 12:24PM (2 years, 2 months ago)

    Never mind. Figured it out. Pet was to low lvl.  :) I'm still learning the hunter class.

  • April 10, 2006, 07:41PM (2 years, 1 month ago)

    hey could you make an interface mod that organizes hunters spells and abilities including.

    Puts the aspects and the track spells along the action bar like warrior stances (please seperate the aspects from the tracks. also if you could put the find minerals/herbs in with em that would be cool.) Puts the stings(viper sting, wyrven sting,etc etc) into a seperate bar. Puts shots(arcane shot, multi shot,etc into seperate bar Melee skils into a seperate bar. pet skills (heal res summo) in there own box and then random box
