Version 2.0.3
-------------
- Functional for WoTLK beta!
- Popup message instead of chat message when requesting user to select innervate item... just to make it more obvious hopefully.
- Added shapeshifting to one of the triggers to swap back to original item in the case that it fails to swap immediately after the buff is gone.
- Fix to prevent the mod from switching back to an earlier equipped item after a swap if you've equipped a different item.
Version 2.0.2
-------------
- Few minor tweaks. Official 2.4.3 release.
Version 2.0.1
------------
- Small fix to prevent an item from switching back if you are casting a spell.
Version 2.0
-----------
NOTE: DruidItemSwap 2.0 will overwrite your previous version, so if you still want to keep using your idol or healing swapping until patch 2.4.3, keep your current version.
As of patch 2.4.3, idol / healing swapping will cease to function. As such, this version of DruidItemSwap is to serve as an efficient Innervate/Swift Flight Form swapping mod. I rewrote the mod from the ground up with simplicity in mind. The options menu is no more, instead replaced by a not as fancy but more "simple" slash command option accessible by "/dis". The options should hopefully be self-explanatory. I addressed the major issues with previous versions, and from what I can tell it's completely bug-free.
Version 1.3.3
-------------
- A few minor changes and fixes; most notably for flight form when going through portals to swap back to your original trinket (finally got swift flight form so I can test these things :D). There is still an issue with swift flight form swapping that I haven't been able to solve; and that is that it sometimes randomly refuses to equip the trinket. A simple "/console reloadui" should solve this problem.
- The primary reason for this update is to inform users of a change in the upcoming patch 2.4.3. From the patch notes: "Equipping an item will now cancel any spell cast currently in progress." I have tested this and can confirm that the two primary features of DruidItemSwap -- healing swapping and idol swapping -- are indeed broken by the change. As such, I will eventually be releasing a feature-stripped version for those who would like a more efficient and less buggy alternative to larger "closet" mods such as ItemRack and ClosetGnome for innervate and swift flight form swapping. That being said, I will not be spending nearly as much time on the mod because this change pretty much destroys DruidItemSwap's primary purpose. So much for that little bit of help for feral/balance druids =/
Version 1.3.2
-------------
- Small fix to ensure weapons swap properly.
Version 1.3.1
-------------
- Added a small countermeasure to prevent your original items from being swapped on abilities that don't cause a global cooldown (e.g. trinkets, nature's swiftness, war stomp)
Version 1.3
-----------
- Added some advanced options. Let me know if you have any requests for other options you'd like to see. You can now:
- Choose whether you swap your healing items on lifebloom / rejuvenation (see the new tips in the description below why this is optional)
- Enable / disable swift flight form swapping
- Choose whether you want your original items to swap back immediately after innervate ends or if you'd rather wait until the next cast (the latter would prevent a global cooldown).
- With regards to requests for form-specific item swapping, I did get this somewhat working, but chose not to include it by default because there would need to be other changes in order for it to be to everyone's satisfaction. If you still want to try it out, you can open DruidItemSwap.lua, and uncomment the lines following line 196 (use Ctrl-G).
- Other small changes such as making the texts more understandable (hopefully) to users not French, English, or German.
Version 1.2.6
----------------
- Fixed a stupid mistake that caused the mod to not recognize your Charm of Swift Flight in your bags. So Swift Flight Form swapping should now finally be operating properly. Sorry that it took so long to fix =/
- Removed feral abilities from idol swapping. It was found that because swapping items resets your swing timer, there was an overall drop in feral DPS.
- Your healing weapon will now swap in when you cast rejuvenation or lifebloom. This will still NOT benefit your first cast, but if you plan on casting more than one HoT in sequence it will benefit your second, third, etc.
Version 1.2.5
----------------
- Fixed swift flight form switching. Hopefully for good this time.
- Other minors changes that should make things work more consistently.
Version 1.2.4
----------------
- Hopefully fixed the problem that caused Charm of Swift Flight to not be equipped when Swift Flight Form was cast.
Version 1.2.3
------------
- No more sound when switching items!
- Put a few countermeasures to prevent the mod from ceasing to work at certain conditions.
Version 1.2.2
----------------
- Localization! Completely translated for French and German, but it should work for any language client as long as you understand some of the English texts.
- Continued in my crusade against bugs and errors. I'm hoping it works flawlessly now, but be sure to let me know of any problems that come up.
- Testing needs to be done to assure switching for shred actually works. If you are able to do this, please let me know your results.
Version 1.2.1
----------------
- Minor fix: hopefully fixed the problem with mangle idols not equipping properly.
Version 1.2
--------------
- Many, many code changes that should hopefully make switching back to your original weapon fail-proof. Of course, all those changes could possibly have created more bugs, so let me know if you run into any problems.
- Innervating another person will no longer equip your innervate weapon.
- You can now set a default idol to switch back to after you've switched idols (if you don't need this, it's fine and even suggested that you don't bother setting a default).
- Fixed the problem that required users to delete their savedvariables file upon updating.
- Can now set idols for your Mangle and Shred abilities! After testing, it was confirmed that Rejuvenation and Lifebloom switching will not work.
- Minor graphical changes to the options menu. Oh, and don't worry that you don't see the flight form swap setting, because DIS takes care of it automatically now (since there's only one trinket that increases flight form speed).
Version 1.1
-----------
Note for people updating from the previous version: You must delete your saved variables file for DruidItemSwap. This can be found at C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\[account name]\[realm name]\[character name]\SavedVariables\DruidItemSwap.lua . Also delete the backup, DruidItemSwap.lua.bak . You will have to set up your settings again. I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Updates:
- Flight form trinket swap supported
- Can now enable/disable the mod
- Fixed an issue with idol swapping for healing touch

If you wanted to test these abilities for me, you could add some options in DIS manually and see if idol swapping for them would make any difference. It's pretty easy to do this; just open up DruidItemSwap.lua, go to line 173 (use ctrl-g) and using the above lines as reference, you can create your own options. For example, this for Maul:
This will be fixed in the next version. I'm assuming that if someone has the swift flight trinket, they also have swift flight form?
