About Imhothar's Bags

General Information

Imhothar's Bags is there to ease the management of your items accross multiple characters and adds some little "extras" to your UI. Due to current API limitations it does not do what it was originally intended for (namely replacing the default inventory windows) but rest assured that is to be added as soon as the Addon API allows it.

Until then you get the advantage of having all your items displayed in one window, so you get a nice overview of your belongings. You can look at the contents of your bank even while out in the wilderness, and inspect the items of your offline characters.

The nice little "extras" include:

Features

  • Display all backpack, bank, currency, equipped and wardrobe items each in a separate large window.
  • View all your and your offline characters' items from anywhere you are.
  • View the items of all guilds any of your characters is a member of.
  • Items can grouped by category, bags or not at all ("all-in-one").
  • Items can be sorted by name, icon, rarity or by slot.
  • Empty slots are not displayed to save space. Instead the number in the top-right shows the number of empty slots.
  • Access the inventory of all your characters on the shard anytime. You need to log into each character in order for their data to become available. Tracks all accounts.
  • Condense multiple full stacks of the same item into one button for saving screen space.
  • The windows can be moved anywhere you wish and resized.
  • Adds a summary to item tooltips showing you whether any of your characters already own the displayed item.
  • Displays the number of empty slots on the bags bar making it easier to know when visiting a merchant becomes necessary.
  • Search the entire item database to find out whether your characters already own a specific item.

Slash commands

/imhobags menu
Open a little menu at your cursor from where you can open all the item windows of all your characters.
This works great if put into a macro.

Public API

There is a public API which can be used by other addons and might get extended in the future as required.
Details about it can be found on the Public API page.

What the Addon is not (yet)

The current Rift API imposes some limitations on what the Addon can do. Thus the followig features are unfortunately not possible at this time. But the code is largely prepared to support them as soon as the API becomes available!

  • The ImhoBags windows cannot hide the default Trion windows.
  • The highlights for newly acquired items are missing.

Known issues

The complete list can now be viewed in-game in the Config Window.

0.14beta

FEATURES:
* Items are now stored for all accounts.
* Some item locations now support multiple types of views:
    - default: This is the way you know it with items grouped by AH category.
    - bags: Group items by the bag they are located in.
    - onebag: No item grouping whatsoever, all items in a single group.
* You can now sort your items by the bag slot they are placed in.
* It is now possible to show the empty slots as concrete items in the bag
    windows by clicking the empty item count in the top right corner.
* "All-In-One": setting your layout to "onebag", the sorting to "slot"
    and showing empty items gives you the well known "onebag" layout.
* Item animations giving clues about where a category or item moves to.
CHANGES:
* The "showEnemyFaction" option was removed as it is obsolete now.
* The "packGroups" option was removed and groups are always packed now.
* The mail window is no longer there. Get a dedicated mail addon if you want one.
    The addon still tracks items in mails for tooltips.
FIXES:
* Dimension items no longer cause errors.
* Performance warning in search window should be gone now.
ISSUES:
* This information can now be viewed in the config window in-game.

    The update is working a lot better regarding the various new bag windows, but now I am not seeing the extended item tooltips with the various character item counts. Which, unfortuantely is the main thing I have been using the addon for. I moved my entire Addon directory and installed it fresh but it is still happening.

  • #181

    I'm having the same issue with tooltips not showing up as of the most recent update... and thats the most useful feature of this addon for me.

  • #180

    Greetings,

    I have encountered the same isue with the addon since the latest update.

    As I moved my characters from one server to another I thought the problem was there but after a clean reinstall (I deleted all the .lua files etc. then installed the addon from scratch) I still cannot quickly see what my toons have in bags/bank of a specific item I point on.

    And I really loved this option as I craft a lot on nearly every of them.

    Moreover I tried the /imhobags extentedTooltips command serveal times but nothing seems to happen.

    Thank you very much for your help and keep up the good work as I know Trion has hindered many modders with 2.2 update -and its stupid event !-.

    PS: same problem both in English and French languages - I'm not sure this piece of info does help but who knows ;)

    With the latest update I'm not getting the guild bank error message any more but the addon only shows the first tab of the guild bank.

  • #177

    I am also getting this error when opening the guild bank. I've tried uninstalling the addon, deleting the lua, almost anything I can think of and I still get this error. Looking for something else to try, I love this addon and hoping it can be fixed. I don't know of any other addon that will do the things this one does.

     

    Error: ImhoBags/ItemContainer/Display.lua:103: attempt to call method 'UpdateSlot' (a nil value)
        In ImhoBags / ItemProcessing.Dispatcher.eventItemSlot, event Event.Item.Slot
    stack traceback:

    Is there a way to move the extended tooltips away from the top left corner of the screen?  And it would be cool if the tooltips showed the information the default tooltips did (stat changes and whatnot)

  • #174

    Im not getting any kind of error but the addon isnt showing up at all when i start he game? Its on the list of addons but it still shows only my bags as seperate. Am I not doing something? Im not getting an error anything, just showing nothing of the addon in game

  • #175

    It's possible there ís á confli`ct with other addons which try to do the same as mine. Try "/imhobags menu". If taht opens a menu where you can chose item locations then at least it's running.

  • #172

    First let me say that I really love this add on and rely on it heavily as I am an altaholic :).   However, I get the guild bank error also.  I don't really need to have the items listed from my guild bank as they change alot.  Is there a switch were I can turn off Imhothar's Bags for the guild bank only?   That would resolve my issue.

    Thanks again for all your hard work.

  • #171

    Did some investigating and uninstalled beta4, installed beta3, got same problem, same again with beta2, so I'm wondering if Trion put in some ninja code on Guild Banks?  Really frustrating not being able to use this add-on anymore. :(

  • #170

    After 2/11/2013 Guild Bank usage causing:

    Error: ImhoBags/ItemContainer/Display.lua:103: attempt to call method 'UpdateSlot' (a nil value)
        In ImhoBags / ItemProcessing.Dispatcher.eventItemSlot, event Event.Item.Slot

    I am also getting this from the guild bank:

    Error: ImhoBags/ItemContainer/Display.lua:103: attempt to call method 'UpdateSlot' (a nil value)
        In ImhoBags / ItemProcessing.Dispatcher.eventItemSlot, event Event.Item.Slot

    I get the guild bank error as soon as I click on the banker to open the guild bank. Did some testing and here's what I got: This happens on all of my toons that are in the actual guild with several bank tabs but my  bank toon which has a guild bank with just 1 bank tab doesn't get this error... I think it's related to getting data from all the tabs somehow.

    EDIT: Get this error message when moving stuff in the guild bank with several tabs too.

    EDIT 2: Not sure if this has anything to do with this issue but when opening the guild bank via imhobags the misc items in all tabs but the artifacts tab have a question mark instead of the item icon. Oh and the artifact "Mother in law's tears" is shown as a misc item instead of a collectible like all the other artifacts.

    Error: ImhoBags/ItemContainer/Display.lua:103: attempt to call method 'UpdateSlot' (a nil value)
    In ImhoBags / ItemProcessing.Dispatcher.eventItemSlot, event Event.Item.Slot
    stack traceback:

    Hey any chance you can make it so that some of the tooltips show up some where other than the upper left hand corner of my screen. I can't see some of the writing.
