GupPet

Version: v2.106

by: Gupp [More]

What is GupPet:
GupPet is an add-on that gives an extension for mounting and calling critters. By a single click it mounts a ground, swimming or fly mount depending on the players location. Because most players have plenty of mounts and companions, and you probably like more than one, the add-on can randomly select mounts/companions depending on the selections in the option menu.

Basic Features:

Randomly selects a mount / companion location dependent.
Class support for Druids , Shamans and Mages.
Automatically summons a companion
3d model preview
And many more ! ( Would be a to big list )

In game usage:
There are 3 types of controls.

Action buttons (Adds buttons and are move, hide and scalable.)
Key binds
Slash commands

How it works:
GupPet uses a small database to split the mounts that the player currently has learned. The splitting is based on type (ground, swimming or fly) and speed. When using the auto mount function the add-on will always try to select the fastest possible option, but if you can fly in an area the add-on select the flyable over the ground type. If your are swimming the aquatic will be selected above the other two types.

For the critters GupPet uses a small database to detect if a critter uses a type of reagent to call it, for some types you need a snowball. The add-on detects if you have that reagent with you and if not, the add-on won't select that type of critter.

Language support:
The languages that are currently supported are English , German ( Tnx to Farook at Curse) , Spanish ( Tnx to StiviS at Curse ) and Russian ( Tnx to StingerSoft at WowInterface.) With the none-supported languages the zone detection is not supported and therefore forces the two mount action buttons.

Commands
The start command is '/GP' or '/GupPet'. ( The mounting slash commands don't support abilities with spells )

Known Issues:
If you or a patch clears your WoW Cache folder, you may experience an invalid list of mounts or a failure to select some mounts for your first login after the cache was cleared. Try logging out and then back in.

US English. One is on a PC, one is on a Mac. Tried the commands to open the config window... had to go in via the Interface menu's button.

The mammoth shows that there is no fly mount. The drake shows only that there is a flyer... The icons dont update dynamically to show the next mount as the buttons got some more options and the mount is selected at the click [/b]

Okay, thanks.

I also have a question: the button for mounting shows a mammoth for my 35 Mage but has a different icon for my wife's main... why is this? One thing I have seen elsewhere that I thought was nice is the icon dynamically updated to show what the next mount to be summoned will be.

Sounds like a great addition ..

its a pain to get al the data where all the pets drop but thats a minor issue

Code:

/GupPet ToggleInconsistent

Well, I don't mind being a guineau pig.

So, I'll give it a try and report back my results.

I used Livestock for a long time, but the author doesn't seem to have the time to update it anymore, and it didn't handle things like Children's Week orphan quests as well as GupPet. However, it did do one thing much better that would greatly enhance this addon. I could go directly from cat or bear form to flight/swift flight without the intermediary step of NE form first. Blizzard did away with that hiccup ages ago. So, basically, I use this addon for ALL pet/mount management on all of my toons (yes, I have every class) EXCEPT my druids. For them, I default to the standard Blizzard buttons. I would like to request investigation into this small issue to see if there is a way to have GupPet behave more like Blizzard's current flight shapeshift model works.

Right now, I have this installed for that ability, but I really don't like using memory for things that aren't needed.

Thanks. Btw, this is a good addon... just not what I need other than the collection part.

Think this is a good alternative for you as collector only

2. In the collectme extension I would love it if there was also a tab about titles.

1. Thats a good idea and will look in to that.
2. Uhm its a Pet addon

.. So thats not going to happen.

I've been searching for a good mount addon and since I found Guppet I can't live without it and since I'm a collector I love the collectme extension too. I would like to make two suggestions to you. 1. I would really like if there was an option to show in the tooltip of pets (and mounts if possible) which of my characters have them. (since I use alts for AH and stuff). 2. In the collectme extension I would love it if there was also a tab about titles. Keep up the great job

Yes.

In Form + click on button --> only leave form ... But do you want to leave form from out evry form or only fly/travel ?

Hmm. The mod I used in the good old days (GoGoMount) would exit any form. I think I prefer it that way; perhaps other people will comment

The inconsistent behavior is due the limitations ill play on a druid / shaman what is only on the public test server ... ill try and get things tweaked a bit on that part.

Well, you only have to level them them to 16 to test the low-level stuff, then to 20 to test with mounts. Doesn't take that long

I think this is a great mod. I leveled a shaman just a little bit ago (while waiting for 3.2 to come out so I could fly to finish leveling a bunch of alts in Northrend - I have altitis), and the inability to go directly to travel form was a bit annoying. But otherwise, it rocks.

Re: Suggestions for form support

Originally posted by dwex
First, GupPet doesn't handle the case of low-level toons with movement-enhancing abilities but no actual mount (shaman ghost wolf form, druid travel form, hunter aspect of the cheetah) as a behavior of auto-mount-selection. The macro-building code (for the out-of-combat case) adds forms to other mounts via alt-click. But if there are no mounts, nothing happens on a click. In my opinion, the macro-building logic should first check if there are any available ground mounts, and if not, if there is an available form, make that the default click action.

The advantage of this is that you can use a single configuration and click/keybind behavior for all toons, without having to treat new/low-level toons differently.

A second suggestion - it seems to me that "dismounting" while in a form should act like dismounting - i.e. shift out of that form. Currently GupPet switches to the new form/mount directly. That again leads to inconsistent behavior between toons. For example, I fly into Dalaran on my flying mount (in a non-fly area) and land. I hit the mount button, I dismount. I hit it again and I mount my ground mount. On my druid, however, if I fly to that same point in flying form and hit the mount button, I immediately mount my ground mount. Two clicks for non-druids, one click for druids. It's inconsistent, and would become consistent simply by treating cancel-form, dismount and exit-vehicle identically.

Thanks for your consideration on these suggestions.

Ok so if i understand it correct:
No mounts found + forms available --> put form under the normal click
In Form + click on button --> only leave form ... But do you want to leave form from out evry form or only fly/travel ?
