Today I officially released LST for WoW Classic, it can be found in the side bar, twitch/cf client should fetch it on its own, I hope.
I removed most of the things that aren't used or present in classic, the only two toast types that were left: gold and common loot. Everything else doesn't have a counterpart in Classic. I was tinkering w/ recipe toasts, but tradeskill/profession API is sooooooooo janky and limited, so I just gave up on those.
There's no plans to add any functionality beyond what's in there right now, the only updates I'll be releasing for LST Classic will include relevant improvements and/or bugfixes from the retail version.
Have fun in Classic :D
In reply to i_lightspark:
Thank you for this!
Thank you I am very pleased that the addon will work on WoW Classic. Of course, many opportunities on the classics are not needed, because there are no many opportunities on the classics. :-D
However, I would like to ask about the Retail version: why in the last update the highlighting on the received and lost gold disappeared? It was visually very comfortable and pleasant. And in general, I wanted to thank gold for the loss tracking function. Now I can immediately watch in horror how much I spend gold on putting the entire transmog up for auction.
I’m also wondering if it’s possible to carry out the same cost tracking regarding currency?
Hi!
Right now, in 80200.03, by default, gold toasts work like they used to work before 80200.02, they only show gold gain that's above set copper threshold, however, there's also an option to switch them into the new mode I added in 80200.02, it's called "Track Loss" or whatever it might be in your language.
As for currency tracking in a similar fashion, I'm actually thinking about adding something like that, but it's a bit less straightforward code-wise, so it'll take some time.
In reply to i_lightspark:
However, it is interesting how about highlighting losses in red and acquisitions in green. Why abandoned this feature?
Got rid of it for the sake of consistency T_T But I might bring it back, I'm not sure yet...
In reply to i_lightspark:
Maybe as an optional function? ;-)
I'll prob make the "You Lost" text red, but "You Received" will stay yellow.
K, figured it out, I'll add optional currency loss tracking w/ the next update.
I'll also add fragment toasts to the archaeology group
Good news, everyone!
There'll be a version for Classic, but it'll have fewer features, due to API changes the only toasts types that survived are common loot and gold toasts. I'm currently cleaning stuff up, but it works 😁🔫
I'm aware of the fact that not everyone is happy about the gold toast changes, so atm I'm considering doing two things:
If irritates you too much, downgrade to 80200.01.
In reply to i_lightspark:
Would it be possible to consider adding a toggle, that let people add turn on + gold or - gold if they want to, if either is turned off then it just acts like the old version?
Appreciate this is your addon and your own preferences. I've reverted myself as I did prefer the old method. Thanks though for keep the addon running and updated, either way, that's appreciated!
Yeah, I'll be adding a toggle for tracking gold losses and I'll re-add copper threshold as well.
I'll prob push a small update tomorrow.
In reply to i_lightspark:
Many thanks appreciate the time you're putting into the addon and listening to the feedback, its appreciate alot
Good day to the authors of the modification!
I express my gratitude for your work! Your mod has made it easier for me to display the received loot and as a whole has pleasantly visualized the farm process.
I wish you further success and really hope to see the modification work on the classic version of the game. Thank!
Will this work with wow classic?
Sup!
I don't know yet, and there's two reasons:
- It's very likely that needed events and API won't be available by the time Classic goes live, current Classic UI API is similar to 8.1, but they keep removing stuff from it >_>;
- I'm not interested in playing Classic.
But we'll see.
A minor update on said topic.
Yes, there'll be a version for Classic.
Hi _lightspark_,
as always, i love your Addons, like ls:UI and this one here.
Just a little question/wish: is it possible to add gained EXP to the toasts?
Sup! TY <3
Well, it's doable, but I'm def not going to add it. XP gains aren't that important in general, but are VERY spammy >_>
Off, I should read curse comments more often >_> Soz for the late reply.
