TraitBuddy  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 9.1.0
by: Weolo [More]
TraitBuddy is an addon that tries to help you easily manage and keep track of what crafting research traits all your characters know. Great for those alt'o'holics out there just like myself.

I have expanded many game tooltips so that the information you want to see is right there on the item where you need it. There is also a custom screen if you prefer to see all the research in one place.

In case you are unsure what an alt is, it is a term to describe another/alternative character.

This addon is for Blacksmithing, Clothing, Woodworker and Jewellery traits as the other professions don't have traits you can research.

The latest version of addon library LibAddonMenu is required and will need to be installed separately.

Features
  • Expanded in-game tooltips:
    Bag, loot, mail, buyback, trade, guild store search, guild store listings, links placed in chat, quest rewards, crafting, equipped items, and motifs
  • See the traits your character and your alts know
  • See the traits your character and your alts are researching
  • Automatically knows when your research has finished. You don't need to log on to your alts for it to update.
  • See the motifs your character and your alts know
  • Research overview screen
  • Compact movable window
  • Allows you to view any of your alts by simply picking them from a dropdown or using an icon bar
  • The screen you see will be just as if you had logged on to that alt
  • You choose which alts are included/compared
  • Customisable icon and text colours
  • Translated into English, French, German, Japanese and Russian
  • Supports gamepad mode
  • Ability to filter motifs, unknown, almost completed etc
  • List of all crafted sets with details of their bonuses and locations
  • Support for other addons such as Inventory Grid View and Inventory Insight
  • Icons in inventory
  • Plus a lot more...
Check out the attached screenshots for a small sample of what the addon offers.

What do the icons mean?
Green Tick
The selected character has researched that trait.

Orange Tick
At least one or more of your characters has completed researching that trait.
But not the currently selected character.

Blue Hourglass
The selected character is researching that trait.

Orange Hourglass
No characters have completed researching that trait but one or more of your characters have started to learn it.

The colours can be customised from the options.

How to set it up
  • Log in to each character one by one so TraitBuddy can automatically work its magic
  • Check out the tooltips on items with traits and motifs
There are 3 ways to open the TraitBuddy window
  1. Bind a key
  2. Use the buttons added to the corners of the crafting stations, skill screen and guild store
  3. Use the chat commands /traitbuddy and /traitbuddyoptions
Use any combination you prefer.
Binding a key is done from the normal ESO options screen
  • Bring up the ESO Options > Controls > Keybindings and scroll down until you see "TraitBuddy Addon"
  • Choose a key you would like to use to show and hide the window
  • Personally I bind the ] key

Info for other Addon makers
Detect when mousing over a trait in TraitBuddy
In your onLoad function
Lua Code:
  1. CALLBACK_MANAGER:RegisterCallback("TB-OnTraitMouseUp", OnTraitMouseUp)
Then add a new function to do your custom stuff
Lua Code:
  1. local function OnTraitMouseUp(craftingSkillType, researchLineIndex, traitIndex)
  2.     d(zo_strformat("DEBUG: OnTraitMouseUp <<1>> <<2>> <<3>>", tostring(craftingSkillType), tostring(researchLineIndex), tostring(traitIndex)))
  3. end

If you have ideas to improve this addon or have found a bug please either post on the comments section of this addon page or send me a private message.

I hope you like it and find it useful.

I have considered it in the past.
I use Master Recipe List addon, it's really good for that

@lghtn_up yeah thats an ESO thing which can happen with custom icons
Exit ESO
Delete the ShaderCache.cooked file from \Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live
Start the game back up and it will remake that file
You will then see the light and medium icons

If you cant find that location then the full path may be C:\Users\<<YOU>>\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live

Medium Armor

This is probably a silly question, but I cannot see the trait log for the medium armor under Clothing. Any tips?

Thank you!

@Akopian Atrebates

Too many anchors processed
This error can actually be caused by many reasons.
It's not always the issue of the addon in the error message as well, which is super odd to me.
One cause can be related to using a very large number of addons. This makes the error more likely to happen.

Can I check if you use a lot of addons?

TBMotifsContainerScrollChildTB_MotifEntry132Yes->
TBMotifsContainerScrollChildTB_MotifEntry132No

I presume this has something to do with Trait Buddy? Goes away when it is off. Hope that it just means we need an update for some new Motifs and can be easily fixed, but what do I know? Nothing. That's what I know. I am completely dependent on good people like you for great enhancements to the game like this.

I love this addon and use it regularly. I will continue to use it until I can't, but in the interest of helping things along, I posted this. I appreciate all you do and am already grateful for all you have done.

Not something I was planning on changing but you can achieve it by doing the following
Edit \TraitBuddy\ui\base.xml file
Find the xml tag Backdrop and replace it with this
Code:
<Backdrop centerColor="000000" edgeColor="000000" alpha="0.75">
	<Anchor point="TOPLEFT" offsetX="-8" offsetY="-6"/>
	<Anchor point="BOTTOMRIGHT" offsetX="4" offsetY="4"/>
	<Edge edgeSize="1"/>
</Backdrop>
Then you can just alter the alpha number to change how transparent it is
1 is solid and 0 is completely see through
Thx a lot

The tooltip of all the craftable sets in the TraitBuddy screen shows which zone they are in.
I did look into also adding in the POI name but that became hard to do.
no have not location with craftable set in Traitbuddy menu

Thank you for your comments Shadowshire

The tooltips were not changed in v6.2.2 there are exactly the same as they were in v6.2.1.
All sections of the TraitBuddy tooltips can be hidden via the TraitBuddy settings screen as well as change colours.
So you can decide which parts you want to see and what colours they are.
I agree with so many addons using tooltips it can easily fill up the screen space, that is why my addon lets you turn off anything you want which I add.

I would like to specifically say that I have not changed the default settings of base game ESO tooltips.

My last change allowed EU and NA players to have different settings and characters in TraitBuddy when on those servers. This change is extremely useful for those players. If you are playing on NA server then an unfortunate side effect would have been that your NA TraitBuddy settings reset to the default settings.

I hope that answers your issues.
