Patch 4.0.1: The latest version is patch 4.0.1 compatible. There are no functionality changes, EquipCompare still works, so I just updated the version number.
If you like this AddOn, please consider making a small, optional donation of any amount that is convenient for you to show your support. You can use PayPal for this:
Summary
When you shop for items at a vendor or the Auction House and you hover over an item, you get a comparison tooltip showing the "currently equipped" item too. This AddOn adds such a feature everywhere in the game where you can hover over items, such as in your bags, in the loot window or on the reward page of a quest. You also receive comparison tooltips when clicking an item link in the chat box.
For detailed description of features, see the included Description.txt file. Simple install/uninstall/usage instructions are given below. Post a comment if you like, or discuss the AddOn in this thread: http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...ead.php?t=2597
The AddOn is compatible with and the texts are localized for US English, EU English, German, French, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese clients.
Troubleshooting
Check the Known Issues list first! If EC only appears to be working at the AH and vendors, but nowhere else, then you don´t actually have EC correctly installed and working! The default Blizzard UI has EC-like features in those two places already, that´s what you are seeing. In this case, make sure that EC is enabled correctly on the character selection screen.
Advanced tip: For some really advanced uses, turn on the Alt-key mode and install CharactersViewer. Choose an alternate character in CV, go to the Auction House then hover over an item. First you get comparison with your equipped item, but then hold Alt to get comparison with your alternate character. Shop with ease both for yourself and your other characters with this great feature!
Install
Unzip the downloaded zip file into your "World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns" folder. This is a standalone, pure AddOn.
Uninstall
Delete the "World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\EquipCompare" folder.
Usage
The AddOn is enabled by default. Type "/equipcompare help" for further usage information, or see the documentation in the included Description.txt file.
Developer API
See the included Description.txt for a short summary. See the comments in front of each of the functions in EquipCompare's code for full documentation.

Long time user and fan of EquipCompare. Since there's been no update, I would highly suggest switching over to http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/moncaicompare as a great alternative. Not much to it, as it works directly with Blizzard's basic comparison tool.

5.0.4 Fixes
To get rid of all errors introduced by Ranged/Relic slot removal and other 5.0.4 changes, open EquipCompare.lua and edit the following lines:
184-185: Lua Code:
198: Lua Code:
201-205: Lua Code:
That's it, you're done. EQ 2.18 now works fine with WoW 5.0.4

include WoW-like attribute change information
Since some latest patch WoW tooltips contain inforamtion about attribute changes when holding down shift while hovering over an item (i.e. +- x stamina, compared to the item currently equipped).
Equipcompare currently lacks this additional information. Hence I'd like to suggest to: a) either add these information to Equipcompare or b) let the default WoW tooltip being displayed for at least those situations where WoW itself supports equipment comparison Reasoning: These additional information are rather useful and help a lot when comparing items and losing these information when having equipcompare installed is a rather heavy argument against using EQCompare at all. |

Is it possible to skin this addon? It doesn't match my other skinned mouse-over tooltip. I used this picture in a my Auctioneer post, but it shows my equiped item tool-tip not skinned.

Tooltip rendered (partially/completely) off screen fix #2 for EquipCompare v2.18
I looked for when I reinstalled WoW was EquipCompare. I am glad to see you are keeping it going. Thank you for all your hard work on this addon over the years. I may have figured out a method to resolve some of the issues with wide comparative tooltip frames being displayed (partially or completely) off the screen. This attempts to reposition wide comparative tooltip frames (main hand to the left and off hand to the right of the main tooltip) when *both* of the comparative tooltip frames do not fit together on the left or right side of the main game tootlip. * Works with WoW v4.0.6 and EquipCompare v2.18. * See NOTES below. * Open the EquipCompare.lua file, found at: (WindowsXP default location) C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\EquipCompare\EquipCompare.lua Replace code lines starting at 1260 through 1293. Copy and paste the code between the following two comments: "-- Try to place the tooltips in sensible places" and "-- Record side of alignment" From: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Code:
-- Try to place the tooltips in sensible places if ( ComparisonTooltip1:IsVisible() ) then if ( leftAlign ) then local left = ComparisonTooltip1:GetLeft(); if ( left < 0 ) then leftAlign = false; ComparisonTooltip1:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip2:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPRIGHT", 0, -10); ComparisonTooltip2:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", "ComparisonTooltip1", "TOPRIGHT", 0, 0); end else local right; local twotips = ComparisonTooltip2:IsVisible(); if ( twotips ) then right = ComparisonTooltip2:GetRight(); else right = ComparisonTooltip1:GetRight(); end if ( right and GetScreenWidth() and right > GetScreenWidth() ) then leftAlign = true; ComparisonTooltip1:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip2:ClearAllPoints(); if ( twotips ) then ComparisonTooltip2:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPLEFT", 0, -10); ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", "ComparisonTooltip2", "TOPLEFT", 0, 0); else ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPLEFT", 0, -10); end end end end -- Record side of alignment To: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Code:
-- Try to place the tooltips in sensible places if ( ComparisonTooltip1:IsVisible() ) then local left = 0; local right = 0; if ( leftAlign ) then left = ComparisonTooltip1:GetLeft(); if ( left < 0 ) then leftAlign = false; ComparisonTooltip1:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPRIGHT", 0, -10); right = ComparisonTooltip1:GetRight(); if ( ComparisonTooltip2:IsVisible() ) then ComparisonTooltip2:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip2:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", "ComparisonTooltip1", "TOPRIGHT", 0, 0); right = ComparisonTooltip2:GetRight(); end end if ( right > GetScreenWidth() ) then ComparisonTooltip1:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPLEFT", 0, -10); left = ComparisonTooltip1:GetLeft(); if ( ComparisonTooltip2:IsVisible() ) then ComparisonTooltip2:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip2:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPRIGHT", 0, -10); right = ComparisonTooltip2:GetRight(); end end else right = ComparisonTooltip1:GetRight(); if ( ComparisonTooltip2:IsVisible() ) then right = ComparisonTooltip2:GetRight(); end if ( ( right ) and ( GetScreenWidth() ) and ( right > GetScreenWidth() ) ) then leftAlign = true; if ( ComparisonTooltip2:IsVisible() ) then ComparisonTooltip2:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip2:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPLEFT", 0, -10); ComparisonTooltip1:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", "ComparisonTooltip2", "TOPLEFT", 0, 0); left = ComparisonTooltip1:GetLeft(); else ComparisonTooltip1:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPLEFT", 0, -10); left = ComparisonTooltip1:GetLeft(); end end if ( left < 0 ) then ComparisonTooltip1:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip1:SetPoint("TOPRIGHT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPLEFT", 0, -10); left = ComparisonTooltip1:GetLeft(); if ( ComparisonTooltip2:IsVisible() ) then ComparisonTooltip2:ClearAllPoints(); ComparisonTooltip2:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", tooltip:GetName(), "TOPRIGHT", 0, -10); right = ComparisonTooltip2:GetRight(); end end end --Test new tooltip positions to check if new far left, new far right, ComparisonTooltip1 bottom, --and/or ComparisonTooltip2 bottom points are rendered off-screen. --Solution: Reposition the main tooltip and redraw the comparative tooltip(s) to fit on screen. --(Intentionally left blank, for now.) end -- Record side of alignment Save the file. Run the game. Your mileage may vary, but probably won't. NOTES: 1) There may be a few steps that can be optimized in the replacement code, but I wanted the code to be "easy" to follow. 2) This code modification does not rectify the positioning of long tootips which display beyond the bottom screen edge (possibly a future fix). 3) EquipCompare's tooltips appear to obscure the tootips displayed when the player presses the ALT button while hovering over an equippable item. I suppose if you are using EquipCompare, then you probably don't need the ALT button's functionality - essentially making this a non-issue. |

Re: Atlas Loot tool tips
Options // Interface // AtlasLoot Top box, right column, second option "Comparison TT". Were you looking for additional functionality beyond this, or was this what you were looking for? |
