About EQSwap

Please submit bug reports and change requests through the ticketing system on this addon's Curse project page.

EQSwap allows you to select which pieces of equipment you want to persist when swapping between your two EQ sets. This is particularly useful if you wear vanity items like wings, or have certain pieces of transmuted gear you want to wear on both classes of your character.

Configuration may be accessed through /eqswap. This addon is also compatible with AddonManager.

The addon relies on moving selected items into your bag and back onto your character, so you need to make sure you have enough free bag slots to complete the equipment swap. If you don't have enough slots or otherwise want to swap equipment without using the addon, just hold down the Shift key when clicking the swap button in the character window. This will allow you to swap equipment normally (e.g. without any gear persisting).

    Hi shifuimam!

    First, many thanks for this addon which - to the contrary of some previous posteres - works without any issues with all my chars. I estimate it very much and the problem of the free bag space seems negligable to me. An idea regarding this nevertheless: Wouldn't it be possible to use the transmutor space first when swapping the EQ sets? Maybe some 'improvement' could yet be taken into consideration concerning the handling of three EQ sets ...

    Thanks again for your very helpful work

    I'm trying to avoid using AT space, since that can be risky.

    What would you suggest for the three EQ set part? Right now, it keeps your selected EQ between all three sets.

  • #7
    I haven't tried this addon yet, but it looks useful. I have one set of jewelry that I use for both of my classes.

    One thing I would suggest is that it not require much free inventory space to swap the gear over. As a solution, I propose you do it one gear piece at a time, so it only requires one free inventory slot. Or better yet, have the addon check to see how many free inventory slots you have, and go by that many. (It should check how many free slots there are in every loop, in case the second gear set already has something wielded in a slot that has to be taken out)

    I'd happily help more, but I'm very new to LUA

    Nice idea, was waiting for this kind of add on. Unfortunatly the add on doesnt work at all. When installed, the 1 and 2 button are not working anymore and it is very unclear what it is doing. When switching class, only a few items are actually swapped.
  • #4
    Can you tell me exactly how you've configured it? Any items that are CHECKED in the configuration window (accessed by typing /eqswap in the chat area) will persist when you swap equipment. The items that are checked will be moved into your bag, the EQ sets swapped between 1 and 2, and the items that were placed in your bag will be re-equipped.

    Clicking the swap button no longer highlights the button because I haven't figured out how to make that work yet. However, if you have selected no items to persist, clicking it will make your equipment swap normally after a short delay. Hold down the shift key and click on the swap button to make it swap equipment normally (with no delay and no equipment persisting).

    It's possible another addon is causing a problem. Do you have any other equipment management related addons installed? What exactly happens when you click the swap button in the character window?
  • #5
    My classes are mage and druid so I keep almost all gear except mainhand, offhand and necklace. The addon is just very unpredictable. Sometimes the switch works but more often then not it fails. Sometimes a few items dont get swapped. But most of the time the button just doesnt do anything. Last time I reported the problem I did indeed have another addon "EquipSets" running, but I uninstalled that and the problems remain.

    I would also expect that the switch would be done when I change classes. But then nothing happens at all.
  • #6
    This addon is not designed to add any functionality when changing classes. There is nothing in the information/description of the addon that indicates that it will auto-swap equipment when you switch classes.

    Have you tried clicking the "..." button above the equipment swap button to continue swapping? As the description clearly states, there is a bug with the timer function and sometimes you have to give it a little poke by way of the "..." button to get it to keep going. I realize that this is not the best solution, but currently I don't know how to get the timer function to stop halting, since it's very very intermittent when it does it - this makes it difficult to troubleshoot.

    Hello, this is a great idea and I really like it. I was wondering if you were thinking of adding any capability for switching gear into the pack then into the chest in the house. I play several different chars at once and have 2 sets of gear. A caster set and a mele set. It would be awesome to have this process automated. I am not a programmer so I have no idea how hard this would be.
  • #2
    That's enough of a change in functionality that it would require writing an entirely new addon. I'm working full time now, so I don't have nearly as much time to dedicate to add-on writing. Sorry!!
