How LootAppraiser Challenge works (general)
First, each participant and the host of the challenge requires both LootAppraiser (including all dependencies defined there such as TradeSkillMaster) and LootAppraiser_Challenge.
Each participant must have the host with his BattleTag in the friendlist.
Background: LootAppraiser Challenge coordinates the challenge with BNet messages. Thereby it does not matter on which server the participant plays or which faction he belongs to.
... as host
Open up LootAppraiser Challenge config (shift right click on minimap icon of LootAppraiser).
Fill out the description and pick your challenge parameters for 'quality filter' and 'price source'.
With the button '(Re)Send Invitations' LootAppraiser Challenge will send a invitation to every entry in your bnet friendlist which is online and plays World of Warcraft.
On tab 'Invitations' you can see the current state of your invitations. It's splited in 3 sections:
Open Invitations
Lists all friends from the bnet with a compatible loot appraiser challenge version (see dependencies at the above).
Accepted Invitations
Declined Invitations
... as participant
Open up LootAppraiser config (right click on minimap icon of LootAppraiser), go to the 'Challenge' sub-config (press the plus right to the LootAppraiser entry) and go to the tab 'invitations'. All outstanding invitations are listed here.
Look for the challenge you want to join and click 'Accept'. The last row shows a invitation state and can have the following states:
- Open - Open invitation (you have not accepted nor declined)
- Pending - Invitation accepted but not confirmed by the host
- Confirmed - Invitation accepted and confirmed by the host
- Blocked - This challenge is blocked because you have accepted another challenge
- Declined - You have declined this challenge
i have it install but wont show up only see
LootAppraiser I all tsm stuff to. and latest LootAppraiser any help would be great. never mind had to click + sign
I would love to fix LAC, but unfortunately blizzard won't let me. queues followed by disconnects. i haven't even made it into the game for the last 60 minutes. my motivation for today is gone. i'm glad i'm not paying for it currently. sorry
Given the Github page being gone, I'm guessing EOL with no plans to support or update it in the future?
In reply to Earther:
I currently have no plans to develop LAC further, but if a game update breaks the addon I will update it.
I have a problem on LootAppraiser Challenge for which after moving the curtain with the challenge timer too high on the screen I can no longer move the curtain where I want! I tried to put it in full screen or in window wow but nothing doesn't move! Only the X lights up to close it. I uninstalled and reinstalled the application several times but nothing to do. It would be handy if you fixed this bug and also allow you to change the size of windows that are too large (they can only be stretched vertically but not horizontally).
Now that BfA added Communities. Any chance we could have the addon work via a Community channel. Instead of adding everyone to bnet friends?

In reply to Testerle:
Hi Testerle, quick info: with newest LA version string
version string check in LAC
isn't working, so laMajor is nil and game aborts Challenge:OnInitialize(), so self:initDB() isn't called, db is uninitialized, guys can't join LAC etc.
Cheers Caraxe

For your information, with the launch of Legion I'll also play WoW again. It will go on with LootAppraiser and LootAppraiser Challenge even if it was very quiet the last few days and weeks.
Hope to see a update to 7 soon :)
