  • About Quest Item
  •  

Quest item is intended to solve the problem of where on earth did the item I just got for the quest go to in my bags. If you play "hunt your bags" for quest items this is the addon for you.

The idea is that you get what looks like an extra bag (it cant actually give you extra bag space sorry) but that only shows your quest items. If you open this bag you will only see quest items or items that begin a quest. This way you have only a single location to look in to view all the items you need for a quest. You need never again have to open your normal bags to hunt for quest items.

I plan to add features like warning you if you put quest items in the bank, showing quest items in the bag that are in the bank. Colour coding your bag items to highlight quest items, and any other useful feature in line with the goal of the addon that users suggest.

Use /qi show or /qi open to display the bag. Or use the FuBar plugin to click to open it.

    love the mod!
    anyway to have quest bag open with normal bag?

    only thing i think would improve it is if you can make the quest-bag appear when the other bags are opened.
    having a single bag (from mods like "onebag") means i only ever click on a bag once to see ALL my inventory.

    although this quest bag is good for collecting quest items into one bag, now we have to click somewhere else to see it. means we have to remember and learn a new method for seeing what is now, 2 bags.

    an extra click and process is less streamlined. it's better if the mod can provide extra function, without extra effort.

    so putting all the quest items into a separate place is good, putting that place away from a streamlined method to access is not so good.

    also, i notice there's only 16 slots in the quest bag, i have more quest items than that so i still have to play "hunt your bags" for quest items :)

    2 options i can think of are:
    a)dynamically assign quest bag slots according to number of quest items.

    b) increase hard limit of slots. maybe have a few selections of 8/16/24 slots for user to select?,

  • This is a terrific tool.

    Is there a way to make it like allow you to search for any type of item? Like make it so I can type /qi filter Finger and it shows me all the rings in my bags.

    Thanks though for a terrific addon.

    Could you make something similar to this where it separates all the grayed out useless items? It would make it a lot easier to sell =P

    You could just use Automaton, AutoProfit, Minimalist, GarbageFu or one of the about a dozen other add-ons that can automatically sell grey items to a vendor.

  • Used to use something similar to this that only showed items that required you to Use: them during quests, but this is a nice replacement as that other one got abandoned before WotLK came out.

    Anyway, got a couple of ideas for you:
    1) if possible, offer an option to filter things as I just mentioned. It may require parsing of tooltips to look for Use functions, I'm not sure...
    2) make the keybinding a toggle, not a Show-Only option, and turn off the automatic hiding. It's just not intuitive to have it disappear whenever it feels like it, nor to have to close it with the mouse after opening it with a keypress.
    3) offer some other form of sort order, perhaps chronologically based on when you picked up the quest; again, this would require some extra info to be saved though, so it might not be such a good idea... but maybe you could allow manual sorting?

    Filtering is manually available at present but requires editing the ItemErrors.lua file and adding itemids to the exclude table.

    I'll eventually add in game includes/excludes probably via a command line option.

    Toggle should be easy enough and agreed after using it for a while it would be easier. Not sure what you mean by Auto-Hiding there is no such feature programmed.

    Sorting is a right pain though would need a fair bit of infrastructure to support to map bag/slot ids to a QI bag slot id. Currently its left entirely to the game engine what the sort order is.

  • Can you add this feature:
    Color the name of the item in the quest log and when you put the mouse on the the item, the item will be colored in the bag!!

    I can add this to the todo list not at all sure however it would be possible. It would depend on the level of detail available in the QuestLog API. I'd have to investigate further.

  • Does not work for me at all, have FuBar v3.5.6

    Quest Item 1.21

    shows up in FuBar but when I click it I get

    Error: Tablet-2.0: You must set hint within a registration.

    and sometimes when I start the game I get

    Error: Cannot find a library instance of "LibSharedMedia-3.0".

    . Tried everything, even installed 1.20 same problem.

    Is this addon compatible with Fubar 3.5.6? Is it because I only have 2 quest items? Seems like I'm missing a Library or some sort of tooltip hints or something when it tries to load it.

    Maybe conflicting with other addons? I will try disabling all my addons but Quest Item and Fubar to see if it fixes it.

    Please Help

  • Fixed it when disabling all addons, I need to install LibSharedMedia-3.0 addon for it to work.. I did not see this mentioned anywhere or listed as a dependency. but it is.

    Should be updated in the description.

    Ah ok thats a bug. It should be an OPTIONAL dependency on LibSharedMedia-3.0 I'll fix this and upload a new version.

  • Hi was just woundering if you could add a toggle feature to this addon instead of just show.

    Would be really helpful as I have it bound to a key then I could just tap it twice to check on something rather then clicking the X.

    Also a custom exclude list would be a kewl feature so we could hide say ... tockens that are always going to be in there.

    Toggle feature easy to add I'll do that. Custom lists is implemented but currently implemented as outside the game. ie: you need to edit the itemerrors.lua file to add items for inclusion or exclusion.

    I got the FuBar plugin to appear in FuBar, but it doesn't work. /qi command does nothing. These are the errors I get:

  • The FuBar plugin isn't working because of its name. I renamed it FuBar_QuestItemFu in the addons folder, and now it's working fine. Might wanna update that, but thanks for another great one :)

    It was a packaging error. Should be fixed on next release.

    When trying your new 1.21(r28) version(downloaded from Wowace), the Fubar plugin doesn't work. I have looked everywhere and cannot get it to appear.

    I am using Fubar version 3.5.6
