About AutoSheath

AutoSheath

AutoSheath is an addon that automatically unsheathes your weapon for you. There is no possible option for a caster to hold his weapon when he casts a spell, this addon however comes close, and unsheaths your weapon whenever that is possible. (Un)sheathing weapons does not trigger a global cooldown and is a purely cosmetic feature. This addon works for all classes. It get's anoying to hit the default keybind (z) everytime to pull out your weapon, simply because it looks better that way. Autosheath works among other options when the following occures:
  • When leaving combat
  • After looting
  • After a spell is cast
  • When you dismount
  • After talking to an NPC
  • And more...
<font color="#FF0000">Update v2.2:</font> Autosheath now has a seperate configuration for every character. There is an in-game config that lets you choose between your main and offhand. You can also disable and enable the addon in game without reloading your UI. Feel free to leave comments with questions, ideas, bugs, tweaks or compliments! :)

Changed addon so it has a seperate configuration for every character.

    I can't access the configuration options, even with the /ash command (which I had to dig through the comments to find) as that's used by another addon (auto safari hat)

    I have a problem with this addon.

    If i uncheck the "Enable" box (disabeling the addon that is) it still unsheaths my weapon.

    Hi, first off thank you for making this addon. I love it, especially since I had made my transmogs around fist weapons and bows which do not display when sheated.

    But while I do love the addon I'd like to make a possible suggestion.

    Make it so you can apply it to primary or secondary talents or both.

    For example, I play an enhc shaman, in my PVP spec, I use two fist weapons which I want unsheated because you can't see them when sheathed. On my PVE spec I use a mace and an axe because they're not raiding fist weapons, and I'd rather keep them sheath'd when not being used. So it'd be cool if I could say show primary spec as unsheated and leave secondary spec as sheated.

    Just a suggestion, keep up the awesome work. Thanks!

    Is there any way to modify this so that it will also unsheath weapons after doing an emote (such as saluting a stormwind guard)?

  • #21

    Think I may have found it, I added "CHAT_MSG_TEXT_EMOTE" to the list of events in the LUA file.  So far so good but will update if this fails long-term lol

    First off just wanted to say LOVE the addon, makes chars look a lot better if u got some good lookin weapons.

    But a slight problem iv found with other chars i have and config, Im on my rogue i like my daggers out ofc which is MH, but then if i log my Hunter i then have to change to OH, then if i log another i have to change to MH again... so is there any chance to have a char config save of some sort? thanks very much in advance

    Hello Langy,

    It's possible to configure the addon for each character and save the settings instead of one single account-wide setting. This is a feature upcoming in the next update. Stay tuned, and thanks for using my addon!

    solved

    Fantastic addon. I like that it handles the offhand (ranged, for a hunter), but I had no idea how much - if that weapon is out all the time - it gets sheathed / unsheathed.

    Is there any way to silence that action? If so, please give that option!

    If not, then could you find out what the sound files - responsible for the various sheathing noises - are called?

    It doesn't sound like a problem, and it is liveable in the same way that a water elemental's sound is liveable, but I would love to not hear the near-constant sound of sheathing.

    Thanks!

    EDIT:

    Problem solved. I went here:

    Sound commands for every sound updated for Cataclysm
    http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info13194-SoundcommandsforeverysoundupdatedforCataclysm.html

    I extracted the files and did "Ctrl+F", to find "sheath". I found the following:

    /script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Interface\\SheathMetal.ogg")
    /script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Interface\\SheathShield.ogg")
    /script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Interface\\SheathWood.ogg")

    /script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Interface\\UnSheathWood.ogg")
    /script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Interface\\UnsheathMetal.ogg")
    /script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Interface\\UnsheathShield.ogg")

    I downloaded:

    Mute Annoying WoW Sounds
    http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info19827-MuteAnnoyingWoWSounds.html

    I found the first 0 byte ogg file I could - "Wrath_Login_1" (Sound v2.0\Sound\Ambience\GlueScreen).

    I then made five copies, to have six in total, and gave them the names of the above files.

    My half dozen new 0 byte sound files were then placed in a folder entitled "Interface" and that was placed in Warcraft's "Sound" folder

    (This is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Data).

    After logging in, I now no longer hear those repetitive sheath / unsheath sounds.

    Thank goodness!

    Hello jlrm265,

    Good to see you solved the issue by yourself, I would like to inform you though that altering gamefiles is against the ToS; altough Blizzard is allowing the altering of sound files for some years now without any bans.

    Regarding the ToS though - I will not implement this feature in my addon.

    As a priest, I wear main hand, off-hand and a wand. I installed the addon because I wanted to show off my awesome looking transmogged offhand along with my main hand dagger. Unfortunately, with 'unsheath off-hand' checked, the addon unsheats my ugly wand (ranged slot) instead of my off-hand. Is there any way it would actually unsheath the off-hand?

    Furthermore, when I switch to 'unsheath mainhand' my character in fact shows the offhand in my left hand but also hides my main hand and instead shows the wand (ranged) in right hand.

    Is this intended? because perhaps I dont understand the purpose of the addon:)
