Short Description

Complete Tradeskill Information

Known Problems

  • With cataclysm, a lot of the recipe sources were changed. The source information is no longer valid.
  • Cataclysm recipe sources are not added yet.
  • Enchant scrolls are not added yet.
  • Right now, there are some jewelcrafting items that appear multiple times in the list (such as Brilliant Scarlet Ruby), and some instances of these recipes contain bogus information (such as having Autumn's Glow as the mat for Brilliant Scarlet Ruby). These are the result of disappearing recipes and Blizzard's way of mapping old gems to the new ones. It is very hard to filter out the real items from the converted ones, and even worse, the recipe information in wowhead is a mess right now. When the information is cleaner, or when I have the time to sift through the available data, I will clean it up.

Long Description

TradeskillInfo is an addon that gives you all the information that you need about tradeskills - including the ones that your character cannot craft.

It can add the following information to the tooltip of an item:

  • What tradeskills it is used in, and how many different recipes for that tradeskill it is used in.
  • Show you where the item comes from. Vendor, dropped, disenchanted or crafted.
  • Show who of your chars can use the item.


It can add the following information to the tooltip for recipes and crafted items:

  • If any of your chars knows it already.
  • If any of your chars can learn it now.
  • If any of your chars will be able to learn it later.
  • Where it comes from. Vendor bought, quested, dropped or crafted.


In the tradeskill craft window it will show:

  • At what skill levels the recipe will shift to a different difficulty level. 120/80/60/40 would mean it's learnable at 40, it will be yellow at 60, green at 80 and grey at 120.
  • The cost of the combine (auctioneer or vendor prices), how much the result sells for to a vendor and the profit/loss.

TradeskillInfo also has it's own UI. It is opened with "/tsi menu" or by binding a key to it in the keybindings menu.

QuickSearch an item in the inventory will open the UI and show all recipes that use that item. QuickSearch key-mouse combination is configurable. Defaults to Shift-RightClick.

RightClicking an reagent icon in the TradeskillInfoUI with the AuctionFrame open will do a search for that reagent in the auction house.

Shift-Click on the recipe name in the list (to the left) with the chatbox open will paste the complete recipe there. (To tell your guildies whats needed to make that uber item)

In the UI you can browse all tradeskills in the game.

  • Filter what tradeskills to show
  • Filter what recipes to show
    • Player known
    • Player learnable
    • Player will be able to learn
    • Alt known
    • Alt learnable
    • Alt will be able to learn
    • Unavailable
  • Freetext search on recipe name and reagent names.

For every recipe it will show:

  • If the it is learned from a recipe, it will show the source of the recipe. Dropped, Vendor bought, quested or faction vendor.
  • What skill level is required, and specialization.
  • Who of your chars knows the recipe.
  • Who of your chars can learn the recipe.
  • Who of your chars will be able to learn the recipe.
  • At what skill levels the recipe will shift to a different difficulty level. 40/60/80/120 would mean it's learnable at 40, it will be yellow at 60, green at 80 and grey at 120.
  • The cost of the combine (both auctioneer and vendor prices), how much the result sells for to a vendor and the profit/loss.

Recipe names are color coded.

  • White: Player knows
  • Light Green: Player can learn
  • Yellow: Player will be able to learn
  • Grey: Alt knows
  • Dark Green: Alt can learn
  • Orange: Alt will be able to learn
  • Red: Unavailable to all your chars

For items not in the local cache of the WoW client, the icon is "?". Clicking on that icon will try and lookup the item. Warning: you will get disconnected if that item has not been seen since server restart.

It also has a graphical configuration screen that is opend with /tsi config or by binding a key to it in the Keybindings menu.

What it does not do: TradeskillInfo is only a browsing tool. It does not assist you in crafting items. You can use Advanced Tradeskill Window, skillet, Cauldron, or other addons I can't remember for improved item crafting.

Note: I have shamelessly stolen this page from the old wowinterface project page of TradeskillInfo.

    Not a bad addon, I only use it to look up recipes.   The only problem I have is how do you disable every recipe in the UI showing up red.... That god aweful red is giving me a migrane trying to read the recipe names!  There's a tab to change it in the auction house but not in the UI...

     

  • #366

    Ok, got it.  For anyone else interested change line 803 in tradeskillinfo.lua to

        local player,alt = 1,0;     -- for white or

        local player,alt = 0,1;     -- for grey

    THX but 4 me it doens't work. Any suggestions? Maybe there is an alternative? TY!

  • #368

    That 4.2-updated version works fine here. Its contained in a ZIP file you have to install yourself.

  • #362

    I have to say, this is the most convenient and useful addon that I've ever seen.

    With just one right click, everything I need to know appears.

    Someone please keep it updating..Cry

  • #363

    I can't agree with u anymore.

    Even I have interesting with this addon, but it's too complex to continue for a Taiwanese.

    Hope someone will keep updating.

    Hello.

    When you will update known problems?

    BIG THX

    I am afraid I've stopped playing WoW, so I will not be updating this addon anymore. I haven't heard from ethancentauri, so I am not sure what his situation is.

    If anyone is willing to pick up the development of this addon, you can wither PM me from curse, or add a comment in this area. I would be happy to assist to the best of my abilities.

    Anyone knows add-on with the same function as this one, when you ctr+click (or shift+click, i don't remember now) on item in your inventory and it brings up all possible designs up in any possible profession it could be used?

    Fix for enchanting:

    Add this code after line 502 in the TradeskillInfo.lua file

    if value == 0 then
    if (AucAdvanced and AucAdvanced.API or GetAuctionBuyout) then
    local itemName = GetItemInfo(math.abs(itemId))
    value = GetAuctionBuyout(itemName)
    end
    end

    Regards

    My mage, who is a tailor/enchanter seems to know all glyphs nomatter what class they are for, even though he isnt and has never been instripter. at least, thats what the tooltip says, when I mouse over glyphs on AH.
  • #353
    Feature Request: Add a way for us to delete the entire information for characters we no longer have and/or flag a character to not have it's information saved.

    I keep having outdated/dead information show up on who can learn what skill. I found a workaround posted way back in August, 2009. The choices were to delete and recreate the entire saved variables file by logging in all characters (very inconvenient if one has a lot of characters on multiple servers) or delete/edit, by hand, the specific character info out of the saved variables file (highly prone to user error). I tried the latter choice just now and am hoping I didn't mess anything up. Hopefully I won't need to restore from my backup.
