FuBar PetFu  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.6.3
by: Ricowan [More]

Version 2.6.3
---------------
Updated TOC and libs


Version 2.6.2
---------------
Updated TOC and included latest ACE libs


Version 2.6
-------------
Added an XP bar that sits under the text, sort of like a fat underline. The bar is hidden any time Current XP is also hidden, and can be turned off completely through the options menu (it's off by default). Since Warlock pets don't have XP, the bar only shows for Hunter pets.
Tested against patch 2.2, updated TOC


Version 2.5.2
---------------
Tested against patch 2.1, updated TOC

Version 2.5.1
---------------
Expanded the Armor values in the tooltip, now the full armor value is shown along with other armor values.


Version 2.5
-------------
Stabled pet information is now retained between logins. Please let me know if you notice any weird behavior with this, there were a couple of times that the saved information wasn't updated after swapping pets while testing, but I haven't seen this after more testing so I'm not sure if it's fixed or not.


Version 2.4
-------------
Added initial support for Warlock pets
Updated TOC for 2.0.3


Version 2.3.1
---------------
Changed "Foods liked:" to "Diet:" in the tooltip.
Made sure the stabled pet info actually makes it into this archive. <sigh>


Version 2.3
-------------
Added stabled pet info to the tooltip. Note that until you visit the stable, no information about stabled pets is available.


Version 2.2.1
---------------
Updates to the ACE libraries
All .svn folders removed from the zip


Version 2.2
-------------
This addon is now available through the ACE svn.
Added additional information to the tooltip.
The icon now changes based on pet type.


Version 2.1.1
---------------
[Fixed the archive, sorry about that!]
Pet's happiness is now color coded, and sounds will play when happiness increases or decreases. If your pet's happiness is not "Happy" when you first login you'll hear the decrease sound. Both of these new options can be turned on/off though the options menu.

I didn't spend a lot of time looking for good wav files for this, but it's easy enough to customize. The increase sound (currently a burb) is increase.wav and the decrease sound (an "ahem") is decrease.wav. Replace these files with the sounds of your choice, making sure the names are the same.


Version 2.1
-------------
Added your pet's armor value to the tooltip, and finally added the long awaited (by at least one of you) ability to toggle the pet paper doll frame when you left-click the addon.


Version 2.0
-------------
Updated for the 2.0.1 patch


Version 1.1.1
---------------
Moved the pet's level to the left of the pet's name, added back in the placeholder text when no pet is present (oops!).


Version 1.1
-------------
Fixes error when pet isn't available, and adds food information to the tooltip. This version is also compatible with the 2.0 clients, all that's needed is a change to the .toc Interface number.


Version 1.0
-------------
This FuBar plugin displays your Hunter's pet name, XP and happiness. The name and happiness are toggleable. The tooltip shown when hovering over the plugin displays other information about your pet.

Hi,
First off... LOVE THIS MOD!

OK, that said here are a few things I would love to see added in a future update.

1. I have it display the pet happiness on FuBar. It would be nice if the text was color coded... like green when happy, yellow for content, red for unhappy, etc. Also, maybe some sort of alert sound when it goes red in case I am just really being stupid and not paying attention.
2. It would be nice if the pop-up displayed what foods the pet likes to eat.
3. Currently when you left-click on it in FuBar nothing happens... I think it would be nice if it opened the Pet (Character) Screen. Same as Shift-P does.

God I sound like a whiner... sorry.

Thanks,
Twidget

ERROR

Hi,
Me again...

I am getting the following error when ever my mouse passes over the FuBar when I have no pet with me and the mod actuall says No Pet:

PetFu.lua:120:
bad argument #1 to 'find' (string expected, got nil)

Works fine when I have a pet with me.

Thanks,

Re: ERROR

Um, crap. I apologize, I thought I uploaded a newer version that has the pet foods in the tool tip and fixes the error when a pet isn't present. I've been thinking about color coding the pet's happiness, that may be coming soon. I never thought of making it clickable for bringing up the Pet info window, what a great idea! I'll be uploading the current version right after I post this, stay tuned for the rest. Thanks for commenting!

Another error and suggestions...

Hi,
Yes, great, you fixed the error it generated whe there was no pet... It would be nice if it still said "No Pet" when there was no pet. Was a great indicator when my pet would get hung on something and I needed to summon him again.

Seeing another issue now. When I click on the "Show XP" selection in the config drop down nothing happens. The XP is always shown whether the value is checked or not.


More Suggestions since you appear to be open to my flights of fancy...

To make it easier to read might be nice to put the Level in ( ) and just remove the word "level" to shorten it. Otherwise it kinda blends in with the XP if that is showing too.
Look something like this:

Bandit: (48) 5000/10000 (50%) - Happy

or maybe do it like they do the quests that show level in front like:

(48) Bandit: 5000/10000 (50%) - Happy

And (this is a real flight of fancy)...
I use another mod called Feed Pet Button. (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...fo.php?id=4796) It is a great little mod. Here is the Developers description:

----------
Select a food for your pet and drop it onto the feed button. Clicking the feed button will drop the selected food onto your pet. When your pet is in "Happy" state, the button becomes transparent and a left-click will not activate it. However, you can override this with a double-click.

The feed button works by searching the bags for the selected food. If you have run out of that selected food, then a warning message pops up. You can either obtain more food of the selected type or switch to a different food.

I'm hoping that it is intuitive to use. No macros or actionbar slots needed.
----------

I think it would be great if your mod had this sort of funtionality. A person could drag and drop the food onto the icon in the FuBar and then when they wanted to feed there pet maybe just shift-left click it since you may have setup just left clicking it at that point to show the pet screen. You could even have an option to display the food and count or just the count in the FuBar. Something like:

Bandit: (48) 5000/10000 (50%) [Food 18] - Happy

Could indicate the person had dragged and dropped 18 Cured Ham Steaks on to the button or something.

Anyway, enough of my ramblings.

Your doing a great job with this mod. I wish I had your skills.

Take Care,
Twidget

Re: Another error and suggestions...

Wow, great suggestions, keep them coming! As you can see, I updated with the level indicator and placeholder text suggestions you mentioned.

About the XP display... I've updated the option and tip text for this, it's intended to only hide the pet's XP when the pet isn't gaining any... That is, when the pet's level is the same as yours. Hopefully the new text makes that clear.

I'm going to have to dig deeper into the FuBar code to see if I can implement the feeding idea. Stay tuned, and thanks very much for the compliments!

Christmas Gift!

Yay!
Your right, I love the new features...

The is like the perfect pet mod for FuBar... I keep it center top on my bar at all times.
I am also using MetaHud so I don't have the usual unit frame on the left with myself and my pet so this is the only way I know when my pet goes from Happy to Content to Unhappy. Unfortunately I tend to miss the change. Could you possibly somehow make the status more noticeable.
Like maybe color code it as so:

Happy
Content
UnHappy

Maybe even have it trigger some sort of sound when the status changed.

And my last suggestion [I promise ]

Since now we can left click it and see the pet info screen it would be cool if you could do something like being able shift-left click and feed your pet. I guess you would setup in the options what to feed the pet and mayber on the FuBar it could show how much of the food you have like {F18} so if you had setup Cured Ham Steak as the food and had 18 in you inv that is what you would see on FuBar.

Sorry, being greedy... trying to get all my pet needs into one mod.

I did recently find a macro for feeding the pet I really like too... in case you would like to see it, here it is:
/cast [pet, nocombat] Feed Pet
/use [pet:Bear/Boar/Crab/Crocolisk/Cat/Windserpent/Carrion, nocombat] Fish

You can setup multiple /use line for all different types of pets so it feed that type of pet a certain food from your inv without have to switch anything.

Anywho...

Merry Christmas!

Take Care,
Twidget

Re: Christmas Gift!

Merry Xmas!

I've added color coding and sounds for changes in the pet's happiness. Pet feeding is also something I'd like to add, but it will have to wait for a while. I've been struggling with my RicoMiniMap mod and while it was a nice break to add some stuff to this mod, I need to get back to the other.

A great, simple FuBar pet mod. I also like FuBar - PetInFu as it offers far more info in its drop-down list. But this offers more info in its FuBar text, so am using both.

Also nice that you added a happiness sound option. Colored FuBar text would be better (if it is even possible), but the sound will do.

But please (please) do not bloat this up by adding pet feeding. Tons of other mods already allow this, my favorite being the new Petster (updated version of Hunter Bar-Feed Pet Button by the same author). There is also KingOfTheJungle , among several others. Pet information/stats does not=feeding.

Or if you do add unneeded feeding on the one request, make it modular so we can delete it prior to loading WoW, if we don't want it taking up memory & CPU. Check out Cartographer & Automaton for ideas of how to make an Ace2 mod with modular components.

Something seems a bit off on the uploaded archive. There's two copies of FuBar_PetFu.toc, one nested within a FuBar_PetFu directory. In addition the libs is one level deeper. Not clear if additional stuff got accidentally added to the archive.

What other information would you like to see? I haven't looked at PetInFu (didn't even know it existed until a few days ago) but I'd be happy to add more pet information to the tooltip.

Also nice that you added a happiness sound option. Colored FuBar text would be better (if it is even possible), but the sound will do.
Colored text was included with the sound options. As far as the pet feeding goes, it's not something I'd be able to add any time soon, like I said, and I'm not sure how well it would work in a FuBar plugin anyway. So, no need to stress about it.

Whoops! I've corrected the archive, please delete the contents of your FuBar_PetFu folder if you unzipped the messed up one, then unzip this new one.

The folder should look like this:
\FuBar_PetFu\decrease.wav
\FuBar_PetFu\FuBar_PetFu.toc
\FuBar_PetFu\icon.tga
\FuBar_PetFu\increase.wav
\FuBar_PetFu\libs
\FuBar_PetFu\PetFu.lua
\FuBar_PetFu\Screenshot.jpg
\FuBar_PetFu\libs\Ace2
\FuBar_PetFu\libs\FuBarPlugin-2.0
\FuBar_PetFu\libs\Tablet-2.0
\FuBar_PetFu\libs\Ace2\AceLibrary
\FuBar_PetFu\libs\Ace2\AceLibrary\AceLibrary.lua
\FuBar_PetFu\libs\FuBarPlugin-2.0\FuBarPlugin-2.0.lua
\FuBar_PetFu\libs\Tablet-2.0\Tablet-2.0.lua

The gifts just keep coming...

Ricowan...
Your the best! The color coding and sounds for happiness are AWESOME!

Zidomo is probably right... about not adding pet feeding. The only reason I originally asked for it was because it seemed like the Pet Feed Button mod that I used to use wasn't going to get updated. But now thanks to Zidomo I know that it has been updated and given a new name. THANKS Zidomo! And that macro I mentioned earlier works great too.

BTW, I also use your Rico Mini Map mod and love it too! Keep the great mods coming!

Take Care and Happy Holidays,
Twidget

Pet pic

Hello!
First let me say I really like this addon. I downloaded this and PetInFu at the same time to try. I was wondering if there is any way you could add a picture of the pet that shows up next to the info on the bar like PetInFu has? That cute little picture may seem silly, but I like it.
Thanks for making this!
