Hi all!
Just looking for a little addon help, I am a computer programmer but not knowledgeable on WoW's API.
I am creating a very advanced character profile viewer that will download a users information from the wowarmory. If a character has an item equipped with the randomPropertiesId set, this means that the item has a Random Enchant, like "of the Monkey" or "of Stamina", etc. The RandomPropertiesID is a reference to WoW's database and no one (that i know of) has a database of what these RandomPropertiesIDs actually stand for.
For example, RandomPropertiesID 593 is "of the Monkey" with "+4 Agility +4 Stamina".
If you would like to see this for yourself, copy and paste this into WoW:
/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("\124cff1eff00\124Hitem:6586:0:0:0:0:0:593:0\124h\124h\124r");
The result is "Scouting Gloves of the Monkey" with +4 Agility and +4 Stamina.
The item link number for these exact gloves is "6586:0:0:0:0:0:593:0". 6586 is the Item ID number and 593 is the Random Properties ID. If we change 593 to...oh, lets say, 1673, we get "Scouting Gloves of Blocking" with +15 Block Rating and +11 Strength. THESE GLOVES DO NOT EXIST, but by "spoofing" the Random Properties ID into the link, we can have the WoW client return the fictional item.
Using this method, IS THERE a way to take the spoofed link and export the text in any fashion? Even a simple text file would be great. I need to do this 2143 times because I know the Random Properties IDs go from 22 - 2164.
AGAIN, I need all of these Random Enchants because I'm building a character profile viewer and no one has this database except WoW, that I know of.
SIDE NOTE: Any items ON or AFTER Burning Crusade have a NEGATIVE Random Properties ID and this is not a problem.
If you want more information, just ask.
Thanks for reading and I hope you reply...
