LootAlert displays your loot (money & item) messages in a scrolling text addon (sct, fct, msbt, ..). For money, it can show in 3 formats, whichever you choose. For items, it shows how many you looted and how many you now have, in total, in your inventory. It can color the item by rarity, show an item icon, and so on. It can reformat chat loot messages to use its formatting as well, for consistency. It does not yet show party members or raid member looting.

The options error should be fixed in v11.

But even without that it seems to be higher by a small amount for normal items. For quest items a big difference: the shown amount was twice as much as it should have been, or even more. |

If you guys that are seeing the problem wouldn't mind, give v12 a shot, see if the behavior changes at all. Thanks much.

I created a few screenshots of what's happening. Maybe they can even give you a hint to where the problem lies... The quest item looting seemed to be just fine this time, but normal items, like e.g. Light Leather, where way off. Might be an addon conflict (I am using an awful lot of them), but as you see, XLoot is counting the numbers right. I also had Cirk's Lootcounter installed before, and it also had the right numbers... I hope you can find the problem, otherwise a great addon, thank you very much for creating it! |

Oh, here's a question for you. If you disable the lootalert option that filters chat messages, are the counts still off? |

Okay guys, I've added an option to toggle the new method of determining item counts. It's disabled by default, so it behaves like it used to for most. Anyone wanting to try to help me diagnose the problems with the new method, feel free to enable it and let me know how it goes. The help you all have given thus far is invaluable, but hopefully I'll be able to reproduce the issues myself.
I just changed a behavior of the new method locally that I think may make it meet user expectations more. This isn't released yet, but I'll do so shortly. Description of the change: Make the total count in loot messages pretend that no items have hit the bags yet as of the loot message. Example: If you were to loot 600 ammo all at once, depending on lag, it could have shown: +200 (600), +200 (600), +200 (600) for the 3 messages, indicating that all 600 hit the inventory prior to getting any of the loot messages. While accurate, this is confusing and unintuitive to users. With this change, it would show: +200, +200 (400), +200 (600). I'm fairly sure this may solve the miscount "bug" reported by some (where they'd see odd counts in a row crafting a bunch of stuff, for example). But I'm certain the bug reported out when looting stuff in the wild isn't fixed by this. I'm hopeful that I'll be able to repro that. |

Kergoth, what "new method" of determining loot counts does v13 allow you to toggle? V10 worked fine for me, V12 also worked fine though I had some bugsack errors during raid (was in ZA, was rushing thru and I didn't think to save the error messages before you ask)
