Automatically swaps to Felslate for chosen gem chip colors
The button can be bound by creating a macro with the following
/click gch_button
Display UI with
/gch
Button only works while UI is visible.
The Reset Ore is the ore to use on the prospect after receiving a gem and the next color is unknown.
Supports English and Russian localization.
Russian translation thanks to Happysweet!
To see it in action take a look at Elvinelol's Legion prospecting guide: https://youtu.be/wOx2Is1Ei3k
Was working just fine when I installed it, but 5 minutes in it says "requires 5 leystone ore". I've tried moving the ores from my personal bag to the bank and back and tried it again and again. Deleted and re-installed but the same keeps happening :(
Someone else made another addon inspired by this one. You can find it here. https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/261694-ls-prospector
Hi, would like to know when this mod might be getting it's next update? As it is, the last time I had tried to use it, it did not seem to be working properly.
I linked another place to get a similar addon
Firstly thanks for the addon, it's been a real help.
I would like to request a new feature and that would be to prospect felslate mainly but stop prospecting on getting a certain gem chip colour, eg Blue.
Price of leystone is not worth buying for me right now and i have over 8000 felslate to prospect.
would this be possible?
Hi!
Any chance to update it for RUS lang?
I can help with translation.
Hi,
I've added a beta release with support for the Russian client thanks to Google Translate. If you could test it out and let me know if it works correctly and the translations are right that would be great.
Thanks
Works correctly. Пурпурный need change to Фиолетовый and need to change first letters to big one.
ex: красный - Красный, желтый - Желтый, зеленый- Зеленый.
thanks
Thanks for your help!
I've put together an in-depth guide using this awesome addon! Thanks again for making it!
Nice video, glad the addon is useful for you, hope it's ok to add a link in the main description.
I dropped by your stream and saw you were switching to Felslate after a reset so I've added an option to select the ore to the addon.
No problem at all. And thanks for adding a reset option! Just gotta make a new video explaining that now. :^)
If I may suggest adding a "close" addon [x] to the window would be great in a top corner.
Thanks for stopping in the stream!
Good idea, have added a close button to the UI
VERY cool add-on, I popped into Curse hoping someone had made exactly something like this, well done! Works perfectly for me too!
There's not a lot of instructions I could find, for anyone else who is comfused here's what I did: I opened the Gem Chip Helper UI with the /gch command in my chat window, then checked which gem color I was looking for. Then I made a macro (/m to bring up the macro interface) button with the /click gch_button command and clicked away until I got the color gems I was after, and I got a bunch of the color I wanted, worked great!
Also, you will need to have autoloot turned off for the add-on to detect the gem chip color apparently, in testing where I could see the color of gem chip going into my bags it didn't detect the selected color with auto loot turned on.
Thanks for providing more detailed instructions.
It should work with autoloot enabled and I haven't had anyone else tell me it doesn't, I'll look into it
Ah, if you say it works I would assume one of my addons is at fault then. I've got some others installed like Auto Loot Plus that speed up looting that may be affecting it.
Thanks again for the cool addon!
Hi, I've pushed an update for this addon that should allow it to work alongside faster looting addons with autoloot.
Thanks! I'm mining up more leystone and checking, I went through 95 and didn't get a green chip, so I'll keep trying. I did get an error when I tried to /gch to hide the window:
1x [ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED] AddOn 'GemChipHelper' tried to call the protected function 'GemChipHelperFrame:Hide()'.

That is caused by being in combat. The UI will now automatically hide when entering combat to prevent this error.
Thank you for all the effort here, it just keeps on getting better and better. I was finally able to do some testing and it does look like the faster loot addon I'm using is still causing a problem, but to be hones I don't need it, so I've removed it.
If you are open to suggestions it would be really handy (if possible, I have no idea how complicated this is) if GCH would display the current amount of Leystone and Fleslate in your bags?
Thanks!!
