RareScanner

1.60.1.b8

• Updated database (work in progress):
  • I started to add containers to the database. The addon won't be able to alert you to them but you can see where they appear and their content.
• Now you can disable a route when moving to another map (before this change the option to disable it was gone if you weren't in the same map as the route).
• Added a load bar to show that the addon is calculating the best route.
• Added small code improvements to the explorer.
• Updated third party libraries:
  • HereBeDragons
  • WowAce
• Updated russian localizations (thanks to Hollicsh).
• Updated simplified chinese localizations (thanks to LvWind).

1.60.1.b7

• Updated database (work in progress):
  • Fixed an issue that caused an error when scanning for missing collectibles with the explorer. Some items included in the database no longer exist in the current game build.
  • Updated overlay coordinates and loot tables.
• New feature: Routes:
  • This feature was intended for Retail, but as it also works here, I have ported it to this version.
  • Now you can add a route to your current map to see the fastest route between every active rare on the map.
  • To start the route: Use the RareScanner world map menu (under Rare icons) or the command /rs route.
  • To cancel the route: Use the RareScanner world map menu (under Rare icons) or the command /rs croute.
  • You can find more settings to customize how it looks under RareScanner options -> Map options -> Route
• Removed from the explorer support for decor and drawewatcher manuscripts.
• Re-enabled scanning for pets, mounts and toys (it was disabled in previous beta patches).
• Updated Krowi_WorldMapButtons adding compatibility with WoW Forever. Now the button is shown on the left side, fixing an issue where the in-game world map button appeared out of place.

1.60.1.b6

• Updated database (work in progress).
• Fixed an error where the purple icons remained on the minimap even after the internal recently seen timer expired.
• Improved the respawn system: it will now tag every entity as respawned as soon as the addon reloads (previously it could take up to 5 minutes).
  • Now it also uses asynchronous routines that will prevent stuttering when loading the addon.

1.60.1.b5

• Updated database (work in progress).
  • The database used until now had coordinates and overlay coordinates from retail, now it uses coordinates from classic.
  • Updated the entire database of loot for every single rare NPC.
  • Added new rare NPCs.
• Performance improvements:
  • Added many general code improvements to avoid memory consumption, CPU use, innecesary GC overload, etc. (work in progress)
  • Added fixes to avoid stuttering when showing the loot bar and also to avoid showing items that belong to another rare NPC if 2 or more NPCs are found in a short period of time.
  • Added many optimizations regarding to scanning missing collectibles (it affects mostly to retail but also a little bit to forever).
• Now overlay icons are always shown under the skull icons, as before they could appear on top.

1.60.1.b4

• Updated database (work in progress).
  • Added missing rare NPCs.
  • Updated loot tables.
• Performance improvements:
  • Added code optimizations to avoid unnecessary server calls and reduce heavy mathematical operations.
  • Now the explorer uses subroutines to avoid stuttering while loading the interface.

1.60.1.b3

• Updated database (work in progress).
  • Added missing rare NPCs.
• The macro is now enabled by default.
• Macro system improvements:
  • Switched from a ticker to internal events, reducing CPU usage when idle.
  • Distances are now calculated in yards rather than relative map units, ensuring consistent detection across maps of all sizes.
• Internal subroutine and performance improvements:
  • Tasks are now dynamically scaled based on current FPS, preventing performance drops and client stuttering.
  • Scans in the explorer are now significantly faster and won't freeze the client.

1.60.1.b2

• Added a new skin for the Explorer that is more like WoW Forever.
• Removed test logs printing in the chat.

1.60.1.b1

• Added initial support for Classic Forever.
• This version is completely synchronized with retail, so it includes all the latest updates.
• Right now, it relies on the Classic database, so it may list rare NPCs that don't exist, show incorrect positions, or lack new rare NPCs. I will keep working on it as the beta progresses and even after the game is released.
• I am releasing this as a beta because it currently includes features from retail that might not exist in Classic. I will remove or adapt them as soon as I verify what stays or changes.
