Quick DKP

Quick DKP V2 is an addon for World of Warcraft that handles every aspect of the DKP management of a guild. Its goal is to stay completely in-game, storing points and time amounts in the officer or public notes fields of the guild's chart, in a clear format readable by everyone without using the mod.


Please note:

Version 2.6.0 will discontinue old character-based local data storing. This means that you'll lose ALL your local data (the log, the externals and the unuploaded changes). The DKP values WON'T be reset.



Features List:

  • Completely Ingame: You won't need an external PHP server to store DKP or stuff like that.
  • Very easy to use and maintain: You can learn to use it in few minutes.
  • Independent: No dependances are required, and no more mods are needed for the DKP management.
  • Flexible: you can adjust many parameters of the mod to best suit your guild's needs, adapting it to every points or roll based loot system known. ALL options are kept in a single file (Options.ini). Once configured, you can easily share this file with other officers to work with the same settings.
  • Automated Awarding and Charging systems:
    • Boss Bonus DKP table, to award the raid when the given boss is killed
    • Give DKP on a hourly base (Hourly bonus)
    • Award the most hard-core gamers with the IronMan bonus, which gives DKP to the players who stayed for the whole raid.
    • For guilds with fixed item prices, compile a table of item prices basing on the instance and the difficulty level.
    • Give custom raid awards as a bonus, just with a click.
    • Redistribute DKP from a member to other Raid members with the ZeroSum function.
  • Fully configurable Bid Manager: The integrated bid manager support every dkp or roll bidding system known, like open/silent bid, pure or modified roll, random influenced bid, ni karma or shroud loot systems, "spend one more" policy and so on.
  • Dynamic and Interactive Log System: Keep a unique and complete history of your raids! The log will store every modification, and you'll be able to view and edit those modifications at any time. QDKP will update the data as requested, in real time. It will also monitor and log the killing of bosses, bids, loots, raid members who joins, leaves and goes on or offline.
  • Info Center: Guildmembers who don't have the addon installed can whisper you to know their DKP amounts, the dkp they earned and spent in the current session or get a DKP top ten of their rank or class, or an overview of their personal log. You can output detailed reports of any log view to any channel. You can even set QDKP to actively announce DKP modifications and events to the raid chat, or to push notifications via whispers.
  • DKP values exporter: You can export a table with the DKP table for the whole guild, in both plain text or HTML format.You can copy the table and paste it in your guild site, or in a forum, or wherever you like.
  • Alternatives Support: You can easily define alts, to implement a Player-based DKP pool. Each alt is related to a Main Character, and will share his DKP amounts and his Log.
  • External Support: Add players that aren't in your guild to QDKP's local Guild Roster.

....And more....



FAQ

  • I am an officer, but QDKP won't let me edit DKP, it only show a list of players.

To enable the officer mode, your guild rank must have the rights to edit Officer notes AND guild notes. If you don't, Quick DKP assumes you are not allowed to edit DKP and put itself in read only mode. The only way to change this is to ask your guild master to edit the guild permissions of your rank, or to be promoted to a higher rank that has the needed rights.

If you hover the cursor over QDKP's minimap icon, you'll see the status of your guild rights. The command "/dkp permissions" will do the same.

Please Note:If your guild stores DKP values in the public notes rather than officer notes, then you need the rights to edit public notes.


  • How do I configure the mod?

Quick DKP configuration is in a .ini file, that you can find in the QDKP_V2 addon directory (usually under c:/Program Files/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons). There you'll find a file named "Options.ini": open it with notepad or any other text editor. There you'll see a huge amount of configuration options. There are a lot of comments, so it should be easy to set it up. Once done, you can mail the file to your officers, or put it on your guild site (if any). That way, all your DKP officers will work with the same configuration.

REMEMBER: To apply the changes you make to the options file, you have to relog WoW. While you are in the process of setting things up, I suggest you to disable all mods except for Quick DKP, and use the WoW command "/reload" to import the changes you do to the options file without relogging each time.

Should you make an error setting up the options.ini file, QDKP won't be able to read it and will fall back to the default values. If your settings don't appear to be used, then probably this is what is happening. Enabling the display of LUA errors (under WoW interface options->help) can help you spot bugs in the options file.

A GUI configuration tool is in the ToDo list.


  • Do I need to edit the options file each time I update the addon?

No you don't, unless the update has some new setting you need to modify from the default value. QDKP has default values for every setting, so you can just save the options file somewere on your computer (or in your guild site), update the addon, and copy back the options file over the default in the QDKP_V2 directory, overwriting it.


  • Regular players can't view the DKP amounts

Have you enabled all ranks to view officer notes? If you don't want to do it, you can set QDKP to use the public notes instead. Remember to back up DKP amounts before switching storing system!


  • How do I reset dkp/log/hours/everything?

The command to reset stuff is "/qdkp reset x", where x is one of these keywords: log to clear the log, dkp to reset all guild's DKP to 0, hours to do the same for the raiding hours, local to clear the data stored locally (the log, the guild externals and some settings), and all combines the previous to completely reset all QDKP related data.

The reset command has only effect with the data related to the guild you currently are in.


  • Where did the "+1 Hours" button go?

You can find it under the "Quick modify" voice of player's menu in the roster. Please mind that it works with multiple selections: all of the selected members will get 1 extra raiding hour.


  • I get the chat frame spammed with "xyz is not in the guild", and I have set the hide ranks OR min level filters in the options.ini.

That is a known bug that has been fixed in version 2.6.0. Update now to fix it.


  • I have problems setting up the bid manager to suit my guild needs

I know, setting up the bid manager can be tricky, especially if you have no programming experience. I had to make it that way to be as flexible as possible. If you're having problems, you can mail me or post a request here on Curse with your needs.

    Great addon, I have 2 questions:

    1) How would I publish the net DKP of all the people who said "need" before I allow bidding to actually start? I can only figure out how to publish current bids.

    2) Is there a way to eliminate total DKP from the officer note? I kind of just want 1 number in the officer note, the amount of DKP you have and are able to spend.

    Thanks!

  • There isn't a built in feature to pubblish the DKP amount of the bidding member. BTW, here you are a macro that does it. You just have to open the macro editor and copy/paste in a new macro:

    /ra DKP Amounts of players needing the item:
    /script for name,bid in pairs(QDKP2_BidM.LIST or {}) do ChatThrottleLib:SendChatMessage("NORMAL", "QDKP2", name.."-"..tostring(QDKP2_GetNet(name)), "RAID"); end

    Regarding the officer notes format, QDKP needs the total DKP amount to be able to track DKP modification. However, you can set QDKP to ignore the "Hours" value, thus removing it from the notes. You can do it in the options.ini file, subsection "Format".

    So I am loving this addon and it is definitely easy to use, and my guild loves it to for all that it tracks. One thing I would ike to see on the next upgrade if it is not already on this one is to have a setting were we can do a raid warning when the bidding starts and closes on an item.

    Two things I am wondering about are if there is a way to set up this addon so that when I set the winner for an item then they automatically pick it up or it automatically gives them the item. Right now I am just manually giving the winner the item by right clicking on the item and finding the person to award the item to. If this is already set up in the options.ini file I would like to know where/how to to do this because I cant find it. The other thing I am wondering about, because the old guide talked about this, is adding standby players. How do I add standby players to a raid roster so they can recieve their DKP for being on standby.

    Thank you very much in advance and again I love this addon it meets all the needs of DKP management.

  • Hi, I added the raid warning bid feature in my developement version and will release it in a short time. The automatic giving away of won items is a thing i'd really like to add to the bid manager, and will look into it in a future release.
    To add a guild member to the raid as standby, you just have to open the roster in the guild view, right click on a member and select "Add to raid as Standby".

    So sorry to bug you again but I cdant get the add player to stand by thing to work when I am in a raid with a group I went to the guild roster view and right clicked on their name but the only choices I have are

    open log
    open toolbox
    edit DKP amounts
    (space there is nothing written here or no choices to choose from)
    make alt
    quick modify ->
    revert changes
    (space there is nothing written here or no choices to choose from)
    close menu

    so I dont know if I have an old version or something but I cant find the "Add to raid as Standby".

    Just like to thank you for the addition of the announcements. Would love to make another suggestion. Separate out the QDKP2_ChargeLoots into its own configuration file. then don't include this file in the download. Or rename the Options.ini file to DefaultOptions.ini or something, someone auto updating addons might accidentally overwrite their Options.ini causing lots of stress.

    PS: How can i get the old system where whenever someone receives loot it opens the toolbox...

  • Unfortunally WoW doesn't support optional code files, if it dowsn't find a referred file, it stops loading the addon. BTW, for the next major version I'll develope a GUI configuration editor.
    To open the toolbox every time someone loots something, you can either set up the item prices in the Options.ini file, or set the variable QDKP2_AlwaysOpenToolbox in the options.ini file to true.

  • trying to track down an error in record keeping...
    is there a way for a recently installed view-only to get a copy of record communicated to my qdkp2?
    how are log historys saved?

    thanks - seems like a great addon just need to track down a record keeping issue.

  • If by records you mean the logs entries, then no, at the moment QDKP doesn't sync them across guild members. It's a feature I'm coding, tho.

    when i open a roster i can see 20 people max and when i scroll down it wont go... how to fix thsi problem?

    Reply Report Permalink
  • Never had a problem with the scrolling. Are you sure that QDKP is viewing all your guild members? Try to eneble LUA errors in your WoW client (under Interface Options -> Help -> Show LUA errors), and look for an error when you try to scroll. Copy & paste the error details here, if any.

    I just downloaded and installed the addon, but informations in QDKP roster are different than in officers' notes. How can I synchronize the data and copy informations from officers' notes to the QDKP roster? I preffer to ask, because I don't want to upload wrong informations to officers' notes.

    OK, used "revert" function and everything is ok now. I checked the log and QDKP added and deducted some strange numbers. When I discarded unuploaded changes it went back to normal.
