- About Fishing Buddy EBA
This is the "everything but anchovies" version -- the download contains all of the Fishing Buddy related add-ons in one convenient package.
This package includes the following add-ons:
Fishing Buddy (http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/11206/)
Fishing Buddy -- Bar Support (http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/11219/)
Fishing Buddy -- Merge Data (http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/11218/)
Fishing Buddy -- Outfit Frame (http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/11207/)
Fishing Buddy -- Tracking (http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/11217/)
A full-service fishing add-on.
A fishing addon that keeps track of the fish you catch and helps manage your fishing gear.
Features:
- 'Easy Cast' lets you double-right-click to cast when a Fishing Pole is equipped
'Easy Lures' will put a lure on if you need one
'Auto Loot' will turn on the auto-loot function if it's not on already (but only while you fish)
- 'Fish Watcher' lets you see the fish you've caught here before (or the fish that you've caught in the current session)
- Display your current skill level and the time since you started fishing
- Choose your fishing outfit and change into it easily
- Support for automatically adding a lure to your fishing pole
- Full Titan Panel support
- myAddOns support
- Preliminary support for tracking 'cycle fish' such as the Nightfin Snapper so you know when to go looking for them
Example commands:
/fishingbuddy or /fb
toggle the display of the Fishing Buddy window
/fb help
print the list of Fishing Buddy commands
/fb switch
wear your chosen fishing outfit, or change back
There are two actual add-ons -- the second one, OutfitDisplayFrame, handles the pretty pane to set up your fishing outfit (it's next on the list to be made into something more general that anyone can use). The OutfitDisplayFrame addon can be safely left out if you have a preferred equipment manager.
alt-clicking on an item in your outfit display will clear it
Silly stuff:
In addition to displaying the fishing bonus for your fishing outfit, it also displays your 'style points' as inferred from Draznar's Fishing FAQ (http://wow.toshimo.com/viewtopic.php?t=272).

brdrker saidI am seeing similar problem with 0.9.4k. I rolled back a version to 0.9.4j to be sure. Worked prior to the patch. After the patch, right clicking just recasts, no looting if clicking on the bobber.

moldavia saidim using Version: 0.9.4i and its working just fine with the new patch no errors at all. Have you tried disabling all mods except fishing buddy to ensure another mod is not interfering with it? Try deleting your your FishingBuddy.lua file in your SavedVariables folder then launch the game to force a complete reset of options.

ricshan saidFirst off I want to say this is a great mod, excellent work. Although I am having a problem with easy cast. With it turned on I cast properly, but when I right mouse click the bobber to catach/reel in the fish it just re-casts and no fish/loot is given. It just keeps re-casting everytime I right mouse click on the bobber to catach a fish. With easy cast turned off, and use the button icon to cast the cast/reel in of the loot works properly. I just cant use this feature the way it was intended. Using your latest "ver" 0.9.4k. I even tried using an older ver but have the same problem, so I not sure if there is a conflict happining here or not, im sure there is but have no idea what could be conflicting with this. Thank you in advance for you time.

Cyzygy06 saidI noticed when I double right clicked too fast I has the same problem. Try slowing down the clicking and you should be able to loot the fish and still re-cast.

ricshan saidThanks, I was playing around with some settings, in both FB and WoW. But double clicking wasnt the issue I was having, I made sure i wasnt doing this. Here is what I was able to determine. I have had auto loot set in WoW for some time, with Shift+right click to cancel the auto loot while looting. I had never set that option in FB before and appears you have to now. I set FB's auto loot selection to ctrl+right click. I hope all that made sence. Bottom line I guess is I had never had to slect anything other then auto loot in FB.
@Sutorix, Thanks again for all the hard work on this awsome mod for all us users out there.

Bygone saidWhy does Curse Client install the ancient 0.8.9 instead of 0.9.4j??? this is mega annoying.

Sutorix said@marzy88 -- FB supports FuBar, Titan and InfoBar. Obviously, you're not going to use more than one "bar" add-on -- the bar addons you don't use won't be on your machine, hence their missing, and FB won't integrate with them. Since you don't *have* them, it doesn't matter. Feel free to delete them if they bother you, but it doesn't hurt anything for them to be there without their associated bar addon.
@Velliera -- that's weird, I have no problems downloading the lastest version...

Sutorix said@all -- the new fishing hat support should work just fine (I don't actually have a hat, but I tested it with another "use" item :-)

Sutorix said@bluédrache -- you should've just waited a bit :-) The new version has an "Always Lure" option which does what you would expect. It should also handle the new fishing hat (but I haven't been able to test it yet -- working on getting there!)

bluedrache saidI want to ALWAYS use a lure. If I go fishing in the outlands, I miss the first cast all the time and that's costing me money. This "wait until we fail" is unacceptable, since I always fail the first shot. Modified code below as a dirty hack until author decides to add the "Always use Lure" option as promised long ago.
-- override the error message method (need an object as the first arg)
local function UIError_AddMessage( o, msg, a, r, g, b, hold )
-- If we should be hiding the can't use item error, then do so
if ( TestingLures and msg == ERR_CANT_USE_ITEM ) then
-- We have the can't use item error, so abort
return;
end
-- if the fish gets away, try adding a lure
if ( GetSetting("EasyLures") == 1 ) then
-- BlueDrache added this for always use a lure.
DoEscaped = 1;
-- End of add
if ( msg == ERR_FISH_ESCAPED ) then
DoEscaped = 1;
elseif ( msg == SPELL_FAILED_LOW_CASTLEVEL ) then
-- put on the biggest lure we can find
LureState = table.getn(lureinventory);
DoLure = lureinventory[LureState];
end
end
--Call the original
local obj = SavedAddMessage.obj;
local method = SavedAddMessage.method;
return method( obj, msg, a, r, g, b, hold );
end

Animal saidMissing the first cast costs you money? I don't understand how you lose anything but at most 20 seconds of time.
