About GoingPrice Wowhead Data Source Addon

GoingPrice in Action

The GoingPrice_Wowhead data source addon uses the LibExtraTip library to display various statistics from Wowhead -- http://wowhead.com

This addon should update quite frequently -- about once a night.

Note:

If the latest version hasn't propagated to curse.com yet, you can go to http://goingpriceaddon.com to get it.

Release versions take the form of 3.1.xxxxxxxxxx where the '3.1' part is the version of the Wow interface supported and the 'xxxxxxxxxx' part is the date (in seconds from epoch) that the latest price was pulled from wowhead.com

Feel free to visit my website at http://goingpriceaddon.com

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- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.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.

Does the addon fallback to Vendor Prices in the tooltip if it doesn't have auction data?

I'm seeing some very strange prices in the last versions (or it was always so and I just noticed)

For example I saw Merlin's Robe (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=47603) with a tooltip of "Buyout: 9g83s" which is obviously the vendor price not the auction one.

That is rather confusing and if you can notice it easily on such an item,
things are worse for lower level items like those "of the Monkey" greens that are AH-worthy.

Hi Dridzt,

My data source addons are at the mercy of what the various data source websites post. I have no fallback mechanism in place. In the case of Merlin's Robe, wowhead.com must have posted a "Buyout: " (auction house value) figure for it which drastically differs from the consensus.
Check out http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?witem=47603

As far as items such as "... of the ..." are concerned, my cyber minions only know how to pull the base statistics without the "of the ..." part. I'll be adding this granularity later.

Why don't you be the first to post an enhancement request ticket for this on curseforge.com

My addon's have no open tickets and their getting lonely.

Neikos.

Hi, thanks for reply.
I didn't follow up on the greens subject with an enhancement request as it's not what I meant :P.

What I meant to say is that an item like Merlin's Robe that normally auctions for thousands of gold it is very easy to notice that the goingprice suggestion of 9g and change is off.

When it comes to greens "of the bandit" "of the sorcerer" etc that auction for 15-20g the mixup with the vendor price of 9g is easier to skip your attention.

I can understand that the addon just puts in game the auction prices found on wowhead or alakazham but then there is a problem with the script that parses those sites.

Compare Ebonweave Robe (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=42101) with
Merlin's Robe (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=47603)
First one wowhead gives a buyout price of 700g second has no auction data yet.
Shouldn't the parser just put "N/A" for auction data or something like that?

Hello again Dridzt,

Congrats!

You have uncovered a bug in one of my retrieval queries. Even though I "in-activated" the "wowhead-obsoleted" "Sells for" statistic, my retrieval query did not reflect my de-activation. It does now! Tomorrow's update will have the fix. As a result, "Merlin's Robe" will not have any wowhead data ... until, of course, someone finds it in the auction house. This is because it currently only has the obsolete "Sells for" statistic available for display, so my corrected retrieval query will now intelligently NOT create an entry for it. As soon as it has any active statistic available, it's tooltip will begin to show.

BTW your powers observation enabled me to shrink wowhead's data from 27000 to 17000 items for display which means a smaller memory footprint for the addon.

Way to go !

Neikos.

Hi there,
I'm not sure if I should post this problem here or at the page of auctioneer. Thought I would start here.
I get an error message if I use the going price add-ons (both wowhead and allakhazam) + the Informant add-on (part of auctioneer, but i only use informant). It seems that the problem lies with 'Stubby', on which informant is dependent. I'm not sure though. Hope you can help, I really want to keep using both add-ons..
Here's the error message:

Hello again CraftyCallisto,

Looks like GoingPrice was still using LibExtraTip revision #208 which like a stubborn ghost refused to pass on when Informant try to replace it with LibExtraTip revision #224.

I've instructed my cyber minions to update GoingPrice addon's so that they will use LibExtraTip revision #224 (and force revision #208 to go into the light).

Your problems with GoingPrice + Informant should, therefore, also vanish into the light.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Neikos.

I'm glad it will be fixed; now I can keep using both add-ons without the error :)

Hello again Xska,

I fixed the library.

My cyber minions will post the fix tomorrow when the next of the daily updates arrive. When you get it, can you let me know either way whether it's okay? If it's okay, I'll close the ticket.

Neikos, hey dude. It's me again :)

I don't what you have done to goingprice addons lately, but I'm experiencing an extremely long loadtime for the two addons, wowhead and allakhazam :(. I don't know, but about a week ago, wowhead was working fine and it didn't take any time to load, but allakhazam suddenly started to take a painstakingly long time to load (this was after I downloaded a new version). I'm talking about 2 min or more.

The thing is, I fixed it by disabling some of the options in the interface tab, but now wowhead is acting the same way too :(. I tried running all my addons with the exception of the two, and it took about 15-20 sec. But when I run _only_ wowhead and allakhazam, it takes 2++ minutes. It takes such a long time that I get disconnected when everything has loaded.

Man, I really love and appreciate your addons, but I don't think I can take pleasure in using them anymore, because they stop me from playing WoW :P. Is it possible to use any light versions? Thank you so much for reply!

PS! my computer is low-end :)

-Timmin

(there was an error with the page when I tried posting it on "real" goinprice addon site)

One thing comes to mind. I believe I set LoadOnDemand to 0 in the GoingPrice_Wowhead.toc and GoingPrice_Allakhazam.toc files. Try setting it to 1. If my understanding is correct, the extra load time will happen "in game" when you access the addon for the first time as opposed to "during startup".

Go to:
<Wow installation>\Interface\AddOns\GoingPrice_Wowhead\GoingPrice_Wowhead.toc to make the change. Likewise for GoingPrice_Allakhazam.

If it works let me know and I'll make the next updates follow suit.

Neikos.

Heya

Nah, unfortunately it didn't work. The addons weren't loaded at all, even though they were checked in the addons loadlist at the character selection. I checked performancefu too, and it stated only itself as a loaded addon. I hope I'm not bringing you too much work :S. I feel kinda bad for having these problems :).

One thing, did you do any drastic change to wowhead's todays update? Because wowhead was working fine yesterday, but after this recent update it loaded ten times slower.

Don't feel bad.

Only the complainers of the world can make it a better place.

So, the extra load time comes from GoingPrice un-conditionally re-indexing the data just in case the user "discarded/greyed" any statistic.

You didn't see this before because of yet another bug w.r.t. saved variables which upon fixing yesterday, Oct 10, exhibited the extra load time that you're seeing now.

Tomorrow's update should have the following fix. It will now detect if the user "discarded/greyed" any statistic. If not, the addon will not re-index/shrink the data -- because there's nothing to shrink -- and you should see no extra load time. If so, it will re-index/shrink the data and you will see extra load time -- but a smaller memory footprint :-)

The bottom line: If you want the faster load time, make sure no statistic is discarded/greyed.

Neikos.

Thanks to your SavedVariables files you sent me, I'm able to STILL reproduce the bug.

I'm on it.
