What is NazScrooge?
NazScrooge is a virtual lockbox. It allows you to set money aside to save.
Features
You have a few different ways to save and you can mix and match them as you see fit.
- You can manually deposit and withdraw money by using the /scr deposit goldamount and /scr withdraw goldamount commands.
- You can set a target gold amount you're saving towards. This can be combined with any of the other "auto save" options, or you can manually deposit into your lockbox until you hit your goal.
- You can automatically set aside a percentage of your earnings. Ie: If you make 10 silver off of a mob and have it set to save 50%, you'll only notice the money in your bags go up by 5s, the other 5s goes into the lockbox.
- You can set a minimum amount you want saved in your lockbox. If you set a minimum number, you will deposit 100% of everything you make until you hit that number. Everything after that will be based on your other settings, such as percent saved, etc. The only way to go below this minimum is by manually withdrawing money. However, if you do this you have to spend it before you make any more money or it will correct itself to save the minimum amount you have selected. Ie: If you have 14g in your lockbox, have the minimum set for 10g, and /scr withdraw 10. That leaves you with 4g in the box. If you make ANY money in ANY way before spending the money you withdrew it will autodeposit 6g to make you hit the minimum amount. Only withdraw right before you spend with these options on.
- You can have all money after a certain amount go into the lockbox. Ie: You have the maximum set for 100g, and you make money that takes you over 100g, it will autodeposit everything after 100g into the lockbox. Just like the minimum, you can /scr withdraw goldamount to go above what you have set for the max in order to spend it, but as soon as you make ANY money it will take all but 100g and put in into the lockbox.
- This addon has various options to select output. For example you can change if it displays text in the chat frame, SCT, Parrot, etc. See configuration options for details.

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.
