The Collector  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v0.7.3
by: SkeeveSM [More]

== Introduction ==
The Collector displays a list of all mounts, companions (minipets), and titles that your character hasn't collected yet. It takes into account factors such as your faction, class, or profession.

== Basic Features ==
* Show missing companions (minipets)
* Show missing mounts
* Show missing titles
* Ignore List
* Tooltip information on where to obtain missing items

== Usage ==
=== Opening the Collector window ===
To open the Collector window open the pet/mount tab (Shift-P) from your Character window and click the Toggle button in the upper right corner. Or you can use the slash command "/tc show". This will open a window that shows what you are missing for that tab. With the window open you can easily switch between tabs to see what you still need to collect.

=== Slash Commands ===
* /thecollector or /tc will display the usage text
* /thecollector show or /tc show will bring up the main window
* /thecollector config or /tc config will bring up the configuration window
* /thecollector reset or /tc reset will center the main window on the screen

=== Ignore List ===
You can add items to an ignore list by right-clicking them and selecting Mark as Inactive. This is useful if for some reason you will never be able to obtain that item and don't want to continue tracking it. Inactive items are placed in a list at the bottom of the missing items. To track an item again, simply right-click it in the Inactive list and select Mark as Active.

== Thanks ==
This addon was largely inspired by AckisRecipeList. If you're looking for a similar addon to tell you what tradeskill/profession recipes you're missing, check it out.

v0.6.5
- Added in support for Titles. Open from the Toggle button on the character window or with /tc show and select the Title tab.

v0.6
- Tooltip information about where to obtain pets/mounts. Hover your mouse over an item to see where to obtain it.

- Changed code to fix possible problem with tabs.

v0.5.4
- Added ability to right-click a missing item and mark it as inactive. Inactive items are tracked in a separate section, and don't count against you as missing items. Right-click an inactive item to mark it as active (missing) again.

v0.5
- Stand-alone window now. Open with "/thecollector show" or "/tc show".
- Kludged together a new GUI. Let me know what you think.
- Added section for "Extras". These are items that are difficult/impossible to obtain.

v0.4.6
- Added checks for engineering in mounts and companions.
- "Extra" items are not included in the number of items you know. Example - If you know 2 mounts, and one is the Black Qiraji Battle Tank, then the status bar at the bottom of the mount page will read "1 / XX - YY%", instead of "2 / XX - YY%".
- Code cleanup, small amount of localization.

v0.4.4
- Companions should be almost complete now. Thanks www.warcraftpets.com!

v0.4.2
- Mounts should be almost complete now. Thanks www.warcraftmounts.com!

The numbers after the vendor name are the coords in Icecrown where you can find this vendor. For mobs that potentially drop an item it is more difficult because mobs tend to wander around so there isn't one specific coordinate I can give.

I would eventually like to integrate with a mapping program, but I have a few other updates I'm working on first.
Yeah, I was thinking of the mobs themselves. What about a general textual description of the location? NW area of map. Center of map. Near the coast. Near the letters "XYZ" in "SOME NAME ON MAP". Etc. Just a thought if you think it will be a long time before integrating into a map addon (or two/three).

It could be built-in, or it could be something you work with other mods (if installed). For example, check and see if Carbonite is installed. If it is, send the coordinates to Carbonite's go-to and let that lead the way. Or, if various map addons are available, display the location on the map.

Basically, you could pick a variety of commonly-used addons that have a way to show where things are and send the info to those if you don't want to script the actual go-to part yourself. Not really sure which way would be easiest, though. But something would be really useful when trying to collect everything.

At the absolute minimum, having coordinates for the places to obtain each thing would be at least better. It's easier than having to look up the mobs/npcs on the web to find where they are in a zone if you don't already know.

Tabards are fairly low in the todo list. If Blizzard ever adds them into your character the same as the pets and mounts then it will make it that much easier for me to implement.

I have explored all 3.2 content and find some new titles, mounts:

Titles:
Argent Defender (don't know it's id) - from A Tribute to Dedicated Insanity achievement.

Mounts:
Furious Gladiator's Frostwyrm (spellid = 65439) - Reward for Season 6 Arenas
Relentless Gladiator's Frostwyrm (spellid = 67336) - Reward for Season 7 Arenas

Companions:
Plump Turkey (spellid = 61773) from Pilgrim meta achievement

Also found one mistake - NPC Dame Evniki Pasalis is wrong, right - Dame Evniki Kapsalis

Also i have some strange thing - i already have Swift Zhevra, but i see it in TheCollector window. And btw just discovered that wowhead has two spell ids for swift zhevra.

That's all

Re: error

I just uploaded a new version. Please try this one and see if you get the error again.

Was this something that happened every time you logged in? Was there more to the error message, or was that all that you got?
