RandomMount  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 3.7
by: Weolo, Origami


Originally, RandomMount was created by Weolo for nyalahalo. Since August 2022, it's been maintained by Origami.

The purpose of this addon is to randomise selection of mounts, pets, and/or skins with options to choose which items you want enabled for randomisation. Every aspect of this addon can be customised from the settings menu. For a full list of options, please refer to the screenshots.

DEPENDENCIES
These libraries must be installed separately.

Same happening to me.
Hey guys, just to verify, you're saying that when "randomise on dismounting" is off, but "randomise on area change" is on, it will not change on azone?
That is correct. For both pets and mounts

Exactly. It worked for a while then it stopped working.

That said, I have a feature suggestion to enhance your addon. I'm not sure if this is possible and I don't want you to feel any pressure implementing it, but here we go...

With the latest addition of Companions to ESO, the player can choose their mount. I was thinking that it would be very cool if I could have the features of your addon to select a random mount for the companion too. And here is an additional option setting idea - Wouldn't it be awesome if I could have an option that if my char has a random mount, to select the same mount for the companion, and another option if my char has a random mount, to select a mount from the same category (e.g. if char gets randomly selected a mount from the feline category, my companion would get a random feline too), or each getting its own random mount.

I would appreciate if you take my ideas into consideration. Again, great app. Thank you.
Hello!

An old comment, but after reading it, I decided I wanted to take a look at this possibility as it sounded interesting.

Unfortunately, it's not possible.

There's a function available to us from ZOS called UseCollectible. At a minimum, it requires the first parameter, collectibleId. There's a second optional parameter that isn't noted in the Wiki though, actorCategory. I thought this would be an awesome find as it meant that I only needed to pass the same function the companion actor category, GAMEPLAY_ACTOR_CATEGORY_COMPANION.

The unfortunate part is that ZOS decided to restrict this usage to being within the companion's menu (image below). There's a possibility to randomise on companion interaction though - and if there's any desire for such a feature, I could definitely look at that.

Hey there. Thanks for reaching out.

The answer is... Kinda-sorta. The event handler that ZOS provides unfortunately triggers whether it's a zone, or sub-zone change. What you're experiencing is more than likely sub-zone changes that are triggering the randomisation of mounts/pets/skins.

After spending a few hours looking at the problem, I believe I have a solution. I'll be publishing the update with another minor update (multi-rider mount options) probably within the next few days.

Stay tuned!
Thanks for adding the Mulit-Rider Mount option...been looking forward to that, will check it out for sure tomorrow.

Thanks sshogrin, I will take a look at the LUA API and see what I can work out.
That would be great! The more I've thought about it, can we add a "grouped" check box so when you are in group, it will pull the Multi-Rider Mount whether or not there are multiples? Then as ESO adds, your addon would choose from Mount Category "Multi-Rider Mounts".

That could even expand the addon for using a certain category of mounts for the random mount. Just an idea.

Version 3.2

I just uploaded a new version of RandomMount, it will be available to download shortly.
  • Updated to High Isle Chapter / Update 34
  • Optimised strings and string functions
  • Allow customisation of the artificial delay via settings
  • Changed the default delay from 5 to 2
  • Added Spanish language translations (Añadidas traducciones al español)

Without the artificial delay, you could see the ESO "This collectable is not ready" message when triggering a mount of pet change very quickly.
If you see lots of these messages you can increase the delay slider.
