Divisor shows you how much each item in a stack costs at the auction house. For example, if there were 5 motes of fire available for a 12g 50s buyout, Divisor would inform you that each mote of fire would cost you 2g 50s, and that 10 of them would cost you 25g.
Installation Guide
- Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
- StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
- Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start World of Warcraft
- Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)
When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.
If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support
WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.

Spiderkeg saidWill there be an update to Divisor? I love this mod, and still use this mod.
Recently, however, I noticed that Blizzard has initiated their own version of Divisor, which I do not like so very much. Could you put out a new version which provides a feature to turn off the Blizzard default option?

VgerAN saidAuctioneer can, as well as the default Blizzard UI. I dislike Auctioneer, and the default Blizzard UI doesn't have all of the features of Divisor, but yeah, it's a lot less useful now. I still use it, so I'll still keep updating it as necessary.

mrdummy saidIf i'm right, Auctioneer has now possibility to show value per each item in the stack. Therefore, i think Divisor is not more needed.

VgerAN saidDivisor is now at 1.0! The only real difference between 0.2 and 1.0 is that VgerCore is now embedded within Divisor, so you don't need a separate VgerCore folder in Interface\AddOns.

VgerAN saidA new version of Divisor is up. Now you can choose your own items to show stack prices in addition to the items that automatically stack like Mote of Fire. Like seeing Netherweave Cloth in stacks of 20? Use /divisor stack 20 Netherweave Cloth.

VgerAN saidSatryia -- thanks for the suggestion; it's something I'd like to consider sometime. But, if this AFP by DemonKunga does the trick, maybe I won't bother. :)

demonkunga said@Satyria The feature you are looking for is part of this addon: http://wow-en.curse-gaming.com/downloads/details/4723/ I was using it for the last few days, and even though it hasn't been updated for awhile, it worked fine for me. Have fun!

Satyria saidTested it, and it works! Would it be possible to have an option to replace the normal bid and buyout with the numbers your mods provide? That would possible mean you can sort for the "real" lowest price and in addition, saving time from hovering the items.
