Fishing Buddy (Classic)
A fishing addon that keeps track of the fish you catch and helps manage your fishing gear.
Features:
- Double-click fishing
- 'Fish Watcher' lets you see the fish you've caught here before (or the fish that you've caught in the current session)
- Display your current skill level and the time since you started fishing - Choose your fishing outfit and change into it easily
- Support for automatically adding a lure to your fishing pole
Example commands:
/fishingbuddy or /fb toggle the display of the Fishing Buddy window /fb help print the list of Fishing Buddy commands
/fb switch wear your chosen fishing outfit, or change back
Known Issues:
This is an early release for Classic and I'm attempting to share as much code as possible. There will be issues.
- Graphical issues everywhere -- the tabs are weird and the model doesn't show up in the outfit frame
- EasyLures doesn't apply lures for everyone -- still looking for why
Feel free to send comments to Sutorix=AT=hotmailDOTcom.
Version 0.7 Beta 1
- Find the lure bonus correctly
- More code cleanup
- Update support libraries
Hi @Sutorix, good to see that addon ported for wow classic but i've found a real issue out there. Whenever i am and whatever skill lvl of fishing i have "The Watcher" always shows 100% of catch success. Please, fix it.
Can you add macro conditionals to the /fb switch line when used in a macro?
I'm trying to use it with a lure macro where [nomod] switches outfit and [mod:shift,equipped:fishing pole] applies a lure.
Can anyone tell me what the 2nd timer is after the / on 'elapsed'? Is that the total time you've ever been fishing since installing the addon? 3hr26m so far today! :O
Also, what's the value like '(7/~8)' after my fishing skill?
Stricking the bobber when a fish strikes when its still showing it bobbing = recast of line, one has to wait for the fish biter to stop bobbing.
The outfit tab has an issue where the X cannot be pressed (its way out of allignment NE of where it should be.
Sutorix,
Is there a way to move the FB stats window? Mine came up in the middle of the screen and I can't move it.
Other than that, it's awesome thanks for doing this.
NM....the tab finally came up to allow me to move it.
In reply to lamuse1:
Hover over the stats window and a tab will show up after a few seconds. then use the tab to move the window
Just tries to apply a new lure every cast even when there is already a lure on the pole.
Anyone else have a problem of it trying to apply the lure on just about every cast? Had to turn off the auto lure.
In reply to notta:
Same here.
Just turning off doesn't work. A /reloadui is required after it.
In reply to PierrotIV:
Are you using any kind of buff management addon? I'm trying to figure out why it's not working for some people.
In reply to Sutorix:
Thank you for your answer.
OK, I think I got it : I wasn't reaching 100% for the zone.
So the last point is that it is not useful to re-lure if the new lure is not stronger than the actual one.
Maybe you have clues?
Btw, I tried with all add-ons deactivated and it behaved the same.
Regards,
PierrotIV
In reply to Sutorix:
Not using any buff management that I am aware of. What I've noticed is that the first cast doesn't do a lure check, then the next cast does the check and applies a lure.
In reply to Sutorix:
Still nothing about that bug ? :(
In reply to Bolerro619:
I'm finding the same thing.
The first cast, it applies a Bright Bauble which is right. Then I cast no problem. On the 2nd cast after applying the lure it prompts me to overwrite the current lure with the same lure-type. I decline, and then every subsequent cast goes off without issue. Once the lure expires, the next cast re-applies the lure. The next cast is fine. Then the 2nd cast after re-applying the lure, it prompts me to overwrite the current lure with the same lure-type, again.
Only a minor thing, but annoying nevertheless, and detracts from the serenity of fishing!
In reply to Bolerro619:
That same thing happened when I was on a private LK server (using the fb LK version). I believe it's something else besides integrating with Classic.
Hi,
I'm having trouble getting the display to toggle at all. I've redownloaded a few times, everything looks to be in the right folders, and everything is showing up in my Addons in-game, but still no dice. /Command functions to toggle aren't seeming to register, and I'm wondering if I'm missing something crucial or if others have had similar issues.
Such a great addon, thanks for making it available for Classic!
