AutoRoller is a simple addon that will automatically roll on items.
Important: If you have problems with the update, please reset your AutoRoller profile first. This can be done by going into addon options, maximize AutoRoller on the left, click on Profiles, and select Reset Profile.
With the new 0.9 Alpha, AutoRoller has moved to a rules system that will allow vast customization of how and when to roll on items. Comments and suggestions at this point will be greatly appreciated.
Each rule's logic can be any statement that evaulates to true or false.
There are several tags available to ease use:
| Tag | Value | Description |
| poor | 0 | Poor quality items |
| common | 1 | Common quality items |
| uncommon | 2 | Uncommon (green) quality items |
| rare | 3 | Rare (blue) quality items |
| epic | 4 | Epic (purple) quality items |
| legendary | 5 | Legendary quality items |
| artifact | 6 | Artifact quality items |
| heirloom | 7 | Heirloom quality items |
| raid | true or false | true if you are in a raid |
| party | true or false | false if you are in a raid |
| combat | true or false | true if you are in combat |
| quality | 0-7 | Item quality; compare by number or tag |
| itype | Armor, Recipe,... | Case sensitive see http://www.wowwiki.com/ItemType |
| subtype | | see http://www.wowwiki.com/ItemType |
| ilvl | 226 | Item level, items from Ulduar25 are 226 |
| reqlvl | 80 | required level to wear item |
| name | Rod of Beating | name of item, case sensitive |
| id | 23564 | itemID |
| boe | true or false | true if item is bind on equip |
| bop | true or false | true if item is bind on pickup |
All of the preceding tags must be lower case, and can be combined with 'and', 'or', and 'not' along with parenthesis. Following are some examples:
Roll if the item is bind on equip and a green (uncommon) or blue (rare):
boe and (quality == uncommon or quality == rare)
If in a raid and in combat, for epic BoP items:
raid and combat and bop and (quality == epic)
If your character's name is Jimbo, ilvl is 226 or above, and it is not armor:
UnitName('player') == "Jimbo" and ilvl >= 226 and not (itype == "Armor")

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 has 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.
