  • About TrinketMenu
  •  

This is a mod to make swapping trinkets easier. It will display your two equipped trinkets in a bar. Mouseover on either trinket will display a menu of up to 30 trinkets in your bags to swap.

__ New in 3.41 __
- /trinket reset will work properly again
- /trinket load top|bottom profilename can set profiles in macros
- nil error fix if TrinketMenuQueue.* deleted
- Options window shrinks if TrinketMenuQueue.* deleted
__ New in 3.4 __
- Auto queue profiles to save/load trinket priority sets
- Trinkets can be removed from list

__ Swapping/Using trinkets __

Left click a trinket in the menu to equip it to the top trinket slot.
Right click a trinket in the menu to equip it to the bottom trinket slot.

Left or Right click either trinket to use them. Or make a key binding for either trinket.

__ Auto Queue __

3.0 introduces auto trinket queues to TrinketMenu. In options you can sort a trinket slot to the order you want trinkets equipped, turn on Auto Queue for that slot (Alt+Click the trinket on the bar or check the tab in options), and the mod will automatically swap trinkets as they're used and come off cooldown.

It was (hopefully) made to be intuitive enough to use without instructions, but if wondering about specifics:

The auto queue rules are:
- A trinket at 30 seconds or less cooldown is considered off cooldown.
- If the currently equipped trinket is on cooldown, swap to the first available trinket not on cooldown.
- If the currently equipped trinket cannot go on cooldown (passive trinkets), equip a higher ranking trinket when it comes off cooldown.
- If the currently equipped trinket is ready for use, then do nothing unless a higher-ranked trinket marked 'Priority' is waiting to swap in.
- If a trinket has a 'Delay' defined, then hold that trinket for its delay before swapping it out. (ie, Earthstrike for 20 seconds)

Auto queue icon colors:
- A gold gear on a trinket means that auto queue is active for that slot.
- A grey gear on a trinket means the equipped trinket has a delay defined and is waiting to swap out.
- A red gear on a trinket means the equipped trinket is flagged 'Pause Queue' and auto queue is suspended.

Other auto queue notes:
- If you use some mod to automatically swap in passive trinkets (Carrot on a Stick or Argent Dawn Commission), flag those trinkets 'Pause Queue' to suspend the queue while they're equipped.
- Swapping a passive trinket manually in TrinketMenu will stop the auto queue for that slot. Alt+click the slot to turn auto queue back on.
- A purely passive trinket will mark the natural end of a queue. If you would like the queue to stop sooner (ie, Burst of Knowledge as bottom-most trinket even on cooldown), move the "-- stop queue here--" mark to where you want the queue to stop.
- The auto queues work independently of the "trinket ready!" notifications.
- Trinkets attempting to swap during combat or while dead will queue for when you drop out of combat or return to life.
- If you don't want to use auto queue and would like to remove it completely, you can delete TrinketMenuQueue.xml and TrinketMenuQueue.lua while out of game. The remaining mod will be about the size of TrinketMenu 2.7 and run better than 2.7.

__ Auto Queue Shared Timers __

Keep in mind as you set up your queues that many trinkets trigger shared cooldown timers. As an example:

Trinket 0 contains a Cannonball Runner not on cooldown
Trinket 1 contains a Diamond Flask not on cooldown

When you click Diamond Flask, it will put the Cannonball Runner into a 60-second cooldown. TrinketMenu will then look for something more available for Trinket 0, and then 30 seconds later as the Cannonball Runner comes off cooldown it will swap it back in.

This is expected behavior. If it seems like this happens a lot, you may want to Auto Queue only one trinket slot, until you get trinkets that can be used without triggering the other's cooldown.

__ Customizing Display __

The main and menu windows are independently scalable and rotatable. While the windows are unlocked:

- Move either window by dragging its edge.
- Rotate either window by right-clicking its edge.
- Scale/resize either window by dragging the lower-right corner to the desired size.

If you're having problems grabbing the edge of the menu window to move/rotate/resize it, hold Shift down while it's open and the menu won't go away when the mouse leaves the menu's edge.

If you right-click the gear icon around the minimap (or /trinket options) a small options window will appear under the minimap. Here you can customize the display further by showing cooldowns as numbers and keeping the menu always open.

Once you're settled on a setup you like, you can lock the windows in options.

To set an exact scale (optional):
/trinket scale main n : Scale the main window to n
/trinket scale menu n : Scale the menu window to n
ie: /trinket scale menu 0.85

    i really like this addon, keeps my actionbars very clean of all trinkets!
    I have one sugesstion for pvp-trinkets, it would be nice if i can mark pvp-trinkets thal only will be swapped if iam in a bg

  • May 16, 2008, 01:25PM (11 hours, 25 minutes ago)

    I simply cannot believe this...a new version of TrinketMenu AND it does NOT work with Hunters...I used the old hunter version of trinket menu that worked until the patch this week. Why make new trinket menu version and not make it work with hunters too, do I have to wait until someone makes a hunterversion now?

    That sucks...

  • May 15, 2008, 05:43PM (1 day, 7 hours ago)

    My TrinketMenu when I hover over it to change trinkets, the window hides behind the raid frames....which is annoying.

  • May 15, 2008, 03:52PM (1 day, 8 hours ago)

    Some trinkets don't show up when I mouse over the trinket menu, "Rune of the Dawn" and "Eye of Magtheridon". All my other trinkets work fine.

    I down loaded Version 3.71 and i find it does not work all the time when you mouse
    over the trinket window there is no selection of the rest of your trinkets and at the same time I cant activate the trinket but 10 sec or so later it all works again?

  • May 14, 2008, 12:17PM (2 days, 12 hours ago)

    I always had a problem with the addon-version 3.7. Whenever I summon a pet (my water-elemental) the trinkets were blocked and could not be activated. So only the version 3.6 worked for me. I have the same problem with version 3.71, so since the new patch my beloved trinket menu is broken :(. It would be great if someone could fix the version 3.6 for 2.4.2 for me.

  • May 13, 2008, 04:46PM (3 days, 8 hours ago)

    This one is updated also just now.

    There's a scale issue somewhere also that needs fixed. Unfortunately I only got to experience it once and haven't been able to reproduce it yet.

    Gello has posted an updated version of TrinketMenu that will work with the coming WoW 2.4.2 patch. Get it here:

    I'm having problems with my trinket menu. It worked fine until the patch. I uninstalled it & downloaded it again. The files are showing up in my WOW interface/addons file but it is not loading to the game. Under the "Addons" icon when logging on, it doesn't show this as an option.

    I tried Twin Trinkets and didn't care for it at all.

    Can anyone please tell a non-tekkie how to fix this problem so I can get my trinket tool back.

    Thanks so much.

    You don't have the mod folder placed properly in the AddOns folder.

    In any case, get the updated version here:
    http://wowinterface.com/downloads/info8527-TrinketMenuFixed2.4.html

    The version here on Curse WILL work. It just doesn't have a few updates and fixes included in the new version by the new coder,

    Someone has updated TrinketMenu. He gives credit to Gello:

    Does anyone know a similar addon? Trinket menu is friggin awsome, but its totally abonded for a year.

  • Feb. 23, 2008, 01:32PM (2 months, 3 weeks ago)

    This has got to be one of my favourite addons at the moment, with my warrior who is an engineer, I have about 12 different trinkets, and managing them all was starting to get crazy. I don't mind having to load it out of date, and I've had no issues with resizing or 'funky stuff' happening. Queue works brilliantly, even pausing and resuming when Outfitter changes things for riding/swimming/argent dawn/etc.

    The one issue I am having is that one of my trinkets isn't showing in the menu when I right click, and I can't find how to add it. It's the 'Mark of Resolution'. I can play with it in the queue, but I can't seem to select it directly... Any thoughts?

    Cheers to the author, the fact that this mod has lasted this long without needing an update is praise to his coding, kudos dude :)

  • Feb. 9, 2008, 10:38PM (3 months, 1 week ago)

    I can't bind keys. I clicked the BINDINGS button, and nothing happens. No second dialog box pops up, no options to bind, nothing. Any suggestions? Or any way of changing one of the LUAs to bind the trinket slots to keys? (Ctrl + T for the top, Ctrl + Shift + T for the bottom)

  • Jan. 19, 2008, 01:45PM (3 months, 4 weeks ago)

    Same problem with the weird, uncontrolled button sizes as others have described.
    I wish there were an alternative to this mod, if it's being abandoned. :(

  • Feb. 22, 2008, 06:39AM (2 months, 3 weeks ago)

    Same here. I also have the issue Inpariswith you is having (with the keybindings not wanting to work).

  • Jan. 14, 2008, 07:51AM (4 months ago)

    Hey guys... as long as there is not a update, help your self with
    DISCORD FRAME MODIFIER

    i could handle positions and scale with it... addon works very fine for me ever since with it.
    but i fear 2.4...
    so if theres a modder out there or even the author of this great addon... please... make this addon alive again..

  • Jan. 3, 2008, 08:49AM (4 months, 2 weeks ago)

    I'm also having the issue with resizing, its really a pain. I've been using this mod for well over a year and love it, hope to see an update/fix sometime soon. Thanks :)

  • Jan. 1, 2008, 10:36PM (4 months, 2 weeks ago)

    Also have the bug where Resizing and Moving the trinket boxes goes crazy, makes them strangely small/large when simply trying to MOVE them. Makes them separate far apart, and bringing them closer together makes them smaller and smaller, but they never meet up proplerly.
    TRINKET MENU NEEDS UPDATE/FIX, it is NOT good like this.

    I removed Trinketmenu, then also the lua/files. Tried to REINSTALL it using CurseGaming's automatic one-button download, but now it won't even DOWNLOAD. I think this might be a CurseGaming bug, that somehow pressing the Download Using Curse Gaming does NOT download it!

    How do I get it to download again?? :( without the 50 step process??

    UPDATE:
    Was able to uninstall and reinstall. Have NOT changed the size/location of the cursors to try to avoid the crazy scaling/location that happens.
    HOWEVER, now pressing the Trinket Buttons does NOT engage the Trinket sometimes...and can't do anything by cursoring on the Trinkets when it is "locked out" in this fashion. They become dead buttons. This happens randomly through time, in battles/instances as well.
    Sigh.

    I'm having this issue as well :(
