Athene's Gear Check  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.73
by: Athene_ [More]

This addon will quickly and easily give you information about the gear of the target player or yourself. Also tells you the item level of items.

The information on the gear is given as the average item level of the equipment, colored in a fitting color (red for bad gear, green for good gear).
If the avg ilvl doesn't mean anything to you, look at the color.
If the color isn't accurate enough for you, look at the avg ilvl
However, remember that the avg ilvl doesn't tell you that the player is properly geared. For all you know it might be a resto druid in epic feral gear

The coloring of the quality is scaled to the level of the player, so the addon is just as accurate for twinks and levelers as for lvl80's.
To make the quality of BoA items accurate, they will count as a green\blue of the same level as the player.

For those extra curious, the addon will also count and list how many items the player has of each rarity(green\blue\epic etc). Just remember, an epic item isn't always very good, it could be a lvl80 still wearing lvl 70 pvp epics. So don't use the item rarities to figure the gear quality of the player.
IMO this information is most useful for quickly figuring the reason of the avg ilvl, or checking if the player is geared with BoA.

The targeted player must be in range to be inspected. Once the gear information is aquired, the addon saves the information for later when the target is out of range.
You can also check the gear of players of the other faction, but only if you are allowed to inspect them (sanctuaries).

IMO the information given by the addon is most useful when you want to know if anyone in your party or raid has crap gear. It will be very, very easy to make sure noone in the raid is geared in lots of greens.
It could also be a way to see if your twink or low lvl char needs upgrades.

Commands:
- /agc : gives you a list of possible commands.
- /agc lookup (playername) : gives you the saved info on that player.
- /agc report (playername) : reports your saved info on the player to raid/party.
- /agc report (number) : reports to raid/party all players in raid/party that have an avg ilvl lower than (whatever number you want).

Additional features with Recount installed:
- List of the avg ilvl of everyone in the party/raid.
- Print the list of party/raid ilvls to whereever you want.
- Mouseover a player in Recount to see exactly what gear the player is wearing.

1.2:
- Fixed 2 bugs related to checking your own gear quality.
- Fixed a bug related to item tooltips.

1.3:
- Removed the error occuring when targeting some NPC’s
- No longer adds text to tooltip for NPC’s.
- adds a more fitting text to tooltip for players with unknown gear.

1.4:
- Removed the error msg at mouseover that appears when some other addon interfers with AGC. Found no way to fix the actual problem caused by the other addon.
- The addon will now save the equipped gear at every scan, to make the Recount plugin more useful.
- Fixed some tooltip errors.

1.5:
- Fixed a small bug causing error msg.
- Removed ilvl on items
- Added command /agc (playername) to check database for a player’s gear

1.51
- Fixed a bug with /who

1.6
- Reduced the amounts of data saved to file. The addon will automaticall clear unneccacery datas the next time you see a saved player.
- Added item icons to the recount list when you mouseover players, making it easier to recognice slots.
- Added date to saved gear datas
- Added various reporting functions. Type /agc to get a list of commands.

1.61
- Fixed a bug when summing up the gear qualities for players.

1.62
- Shortened the date note in tooltips

1.63
- Fixed the negative numbers in “x days ago” in tooltips.
- Fixed the “you aren’t in a party” bug.

1.64
- Fixed a few small bugs

1.7
- Each client will now send new information to other clients in raid, party, guild and friends list, making the information for each client on each player a lot more up to date.

1.71
- Fixed the “you are not in a guild” bug
- Fixed the “you are not in a party” bug when in a BG

1.72
- Turned off the message about receiving info from other users.
- To match the increased max item level, the gear quality coloring is changed alittle.

1.73
- Items of ilvl 1 will no longer count.
- Fixed a bug causing the avg ilvl in character screen disappearing
- Sharing of datas is now an option, turned off by default.
- You can now have AGC to show all members in raid with less than X avg ilvl, where X is whatever you want.

Ilike the idea here. However I got an error everytime I mouse over an item in my chat frame.

Code:

Love the idea of this addon (especially the Recount plugin), but unfortunately it didn't work when I tested it.

Got this error multiple times when hovering my mouse over a player:
Code:
AthenesGearCheck-1.1\AthenesGearCheck.lua:32: table index is nil
Any thoughts?

EDIT: Def9 just beat my post :P

Also, when I scrolled down I also saw it was interfering with a lot of different addons:

Clique, Targetz, Quetip, and Informant. Targetz, QueTip and Informant all modify tooltips.

Clique's error is in line 104
Targetz' error is in line 1195
QueTip's error is in line 236
Informant's error is in /libs/libextratip.lua on line 133, 1466, 252, and 280.

Never had these errors before, looks like you've done something wrong on the tooltip hooking mate

EDIT2: Like Def9, whenever I click on an item link in chat I also get an error:
Code:
AthenesGearCheck.lua:208: attempt to concatenate local 'AGC_ItemLevel'  (a nil value)
It interferes with: Engravings (line 31), Informant (LibExtraTip line 280), DeadlyBossMods-Core (line 634), and CCopy (line 55).



All these errors can probably be fixed by modifying one little thing you didn't think of when releasing this addon



Happy to help,

Fonjask

Thanks for the feedback.
I've fixed the error on items, and I think I fixed the problem with Recount (I did some other changes, don't remember for sure)

About the addons that it interfers with, I don't have any of them myself, so that's probably why I haven't noticed anything.

I also found a bug when mousovering yourself, which I fixed. Uploading updated version.

As said on your Recount plugin's page, here are the bugs and when I get them:

On mouseover of someone else:

Code:
[2009/06/26 09:53:29-662-x1]: AthenesGearCheck-1.2\AthenesGearCheck.lua:49: table index is nil
AthenesGearCheck-1.2\AthenesGearCheck.lua:191: in function <...terface\AddOns\AthenesGearCheck\AthenesGearCheck.lua:182>

<in C code>: ?
QueTip-2.3\QueTip.lua:236: in function <Interface\AddOns\QueTip\QueTip.lua:233>

  ---
When inviting somebody and engaging in combat, Recount's AGC tab doesn't update:

Code:
[2009/06/26 10:15:16-662-x4]: AthenesGearCheck-1.2\AthenesGearCheck.lua:49: table index is nil

  ---
Together with above bug, I get this Recount bug (which I don't get without AGC):

Code:
[2009/06/26 10:15:16-662-x5]: Recount-1048\GUI_Main.lua:845: attempt to compare number with nil
(tail call): ?:
<in C code>: ?
<string>:"safecall Dispatcher[2]":9: in function <[string "safecall Dispatcher[2]"]:5>
(tail call): ?:
AceTimer-3.0-5:158: in function <...ns\!Bang!Core-3.1\Libs\AceTimer-3.0\AceTimer-3.0.lua:132>

  ---


Believe that's all, have fun fixing !

I see the two first errors are one and the same. I dont understand how you got it, but as for now it will print a short error in chat rather than making error popup...

The Recount error is known to me, but I haven't been able to reproduced it lately. I think I fixed it without knowing.
Getting a friend to help me look for bugs in the new version.

Please(!) remove the chat error. EVERY TIME I hover over a NPC, player, enemy, etc. I get that error... really spammy tbh

Well, removing all kinds of error reporting isn't a good way to locate and fix errors
What the error is saying, is basically that you dont have any tooltip of a unit open. Usually that would mean you haven't mouseovered any unit...
Could you please try loading with only this addon and no others, and see if it then works?

The problem is rantTooltip, without this works fine .

Any thoughts on why it isn't compatible?

I'm not sure if Rant empties the tooltip and then refills it in it's own way, or if it replaces it with it's own. Either way, it periodically makes my addon unable to get any of the needed unit information, and I haven't found a way to get around it.
Sometimes my addon can't even recognize what unit is mouseovered, or if the unit is a player, and I don't see the pattern for why some players can't be recognized at all while others can.
I have made it partitially work and removed the error msg tho

And is that version 1.3 or didn´t you upload it yet, because I´m still getting an error when mouseovering NPC´s. Try to see what makes your addon incompatible with rantTooltip, because other tooltip addons (post below) áre compatible with rantTooltip.

It will be uploaded when Im done testing a new feature.

Adding text to a tooltip is no biggie. Extracting text from a tooltip when it doesn't actually exist in the tooltip, however... that's hard
Here are the problems:
UnitIsPlayer("mouseover") won't work. Unit is nil.
UnitName("mouseover") won't work. Unit is nil.
CanInspect("mouseover") won't work. Unit is nil.
UnitLevel("mouseover") won't work. Unit is nil.
GetInventoryItemLink("mouseover", i) won't work. Unit is nil.
GameTooltip:GetUnit() won't work. Unit is nil.
If I remember correctly, even GameTooltip:AddLine("") doesn't work, text doesn't appear anywhere. Makes me wonder if Rant removes the normal tooltip and creates it's own.
These problems only occur to me when Rant is turned on.

Nice addon, won't use it though cause you can't turn off the "item level" in item tooltips. Oh well.

I disliked that as well, but just go in the .lua and search for 'AGC ilvl:'. Then, remove the lines that contain them.

For solving the problem with rantTooltip (and other tooltip addons), you might want to check out how GatherSage2 has handled this problem (did a search for 'rantttooltip' in description, their code is to me but might help you ).

So my wife got me using your addon I used it for some weeks, noticed something staring, wow crashing. At first just once in a while i'd get a memory error saying that there was not enough memory and that the game had requested 37987bytes or some other crazy number. I just figured something was messing up here or there. However the other day Wow would not even load up it just kept giving me that error after getting to the loading screen after selecting a toon, I tried repairing Wow then reinstalling all my addons did not help. So I then actually replaced my RAM thinking it was messed up ... still did not help. I then went in and one by one took out addons completely (addons folder/wtf saved variables etc) one addon made it stop, yours.

Not sure if anyone else has experieced this problem but I've tried reinstalling it over and over and my WOW works fine as long as I don't have this addon installed.
