Unknown Tracker  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: v0.73
by: kadeer [More]
What It Does
  • Display Inventory Icon and/or Tooltip for unknown Motifs, Recipes, Furnishings, Stylepages and Runeboxes
  • Multiple accounts supported e.g. @MyMainAccount and @MyOtherAccount
  • Bank, Guild Bank, Store Vendor and Guild Store supported
  • Automatically includes new collectibles without requiring an addon update

New Feature
  • Collectible Gear Sets/"Stickerbook" now you can collect and equip gear to later on be able to re-create it using a transmutation station, no more hoarding gear !
  • Displays "learn/trade" icons and group loot chat messages
  • Can be disabled (first option in settings)

Important Prerequisites:
  • Requires LibAddonMenu-2.0 and LibAsync
  • On first install, it will scan and display chat msgs about number of collectibles ("Force Rescan" can manually do this) API/Major Game updates also trigger this so new collectibles are included
  • Must Restart game for the inventory icon textures to show (reloadui/relogin is not enough)
  • Must login on every relevant character with addon enabled to build database
  • Other Addons may obstruct UT icons, go to "UnknownTracker options" > "Icons Advanced" you can change the position and set "Icon On Top Level = 10" to display it above others

Default Colours
  • Green = Unknown (can learn on current character)
  • Blue = Unknown By Others (have learnt on current character but some others dont know it)
  • Grey = Known By All (all characters know it)
  • These can be changed in "Icons Advanced"

Important/Common Options
  • "Settings" > "Addons" > "UnknownTracker" > "Characters" Here you can see all your characters organised by account, you can select if you want them to be "Learning", "Not Learning" or "Learning on All Accounts"

- Gear with no icon = dont need and cant trade
Sorry if I didn't explained myself well, but my request was meant to be something like this for when people linked gear, recipes, motifs in chat:


Above: Set Collection Marker (Sticker Book) chat icons' positioning options.

I didn't plan on chat messages a la lootlog, so I didn't consider spam at all

But in any case, outside maybe having a separate option for Chat messages and for Gear using the UT icon; these changes are pretty much perfect. And UT has replaced yet another addon, thank you very much!

EDIT: Added separate settings for Loot Chat messages and for Gear using icons. Tested in-game both options, seems to be working without a hitch.

Gamepad UI support?

Could you possibly add support for gamepad UI? I've been searching for an addon like this for a long time, but it's hard to find ones that work with gamepad as well. :/

Wrong Tracking for motif

Hi, I get the wrong indication for motif "Einstige Hochelfen / Ancestral High Elf Style".
Other Addons reported this is learnable, but the indicator by UT say's its already learned.
Therefore I tried to learn the motif and then i got the achievement !

Please correct this indication.

splitting chat messages and 'learn' icons

Hi!

First of all thank you for making this addon, it has made my life so much easier

Secondly, with the new update, I'm getting spammed with the new option 'Learn/Trade Icons and Group Loot Messages', so I would just kindly aske if you could put it into 2 seperat options, such that i can have the Leanr and Trade icons on, but not see the massive spam of group loot messages.

Best regards/

im glad you enjoy this addon and no need to thank, im happy it helps i guess that makes two people who want this.

if i understand correctly then all you need to do is before displaying icons check if character is not learning and simply return so it wont display anything, the reason why it displays an icon on characters you are not learning on is to inform you that your main needs it (therefore its not just blank and you dont know anything)

P.S congratulations on your first file comment, are you and bluebuiy from the same country ? i notice you have almost identical english

I propose a change to only show the icon if a "learning" character doesn't know it. IE at the if at line 256:
Lua Code:
  1. if isLearning then
  2.       r, g, b, a = self:ConvertHexToRGBA(UTOpts.unknownColour)          -- unknown
  3.     else
  4.       -- @bluebuiy if a character is Not Learning, then don't display any icon unless there is a character that IS learning that has not learned it.
  5.       local canDisplay = false
  6.       local tcsa = UTOpts.trackedCharacters[server][account]
  7.       for ii, jj in pairs(tcsa.characters) do
  8.         local charName = jj.name
  9.         if (jj.setting ~= 2 and (knownByNameList == nil or knownByNameList[charName] == nil)) then
  10.           canDisplay = true
  11.           break
  12.         end
  13.       end
  14.       if canDisplay == false then
  15.         c:SetHidden(true)
  16.         return
  17.       end
  18.       -- @bluebuiy end mod
  19.     end

This is not a very efficient implementation, but does achieve the desired result. It should also come with a setting to turn on/off, for those who want all characters to learn something. Of course this does not change the character list at the bottom of the tooltip so people can still look there if they want to see individual character status.

Sincerely,
bluebuiy
lol my brain hurts, well since you are the only one so far who wants it that way and you managed to make it the way you want then its all good, however i primarily made this for myself and my friends, the default options 100% do what we want it to do since the very first few versions infact i cant recall more than one person asking for a "new addition" ever

the core of this addon is already set in stone and i primarily focus on fixing serious issues (recent ZOS API change broke stylepages) then ALONGSIDE that i see if i can add quick niche settings that people have asked nicely for, as an addon author yourself, i hope you can understand i dont want to be the addon author who releases a new version every few hours every day endlessly and has a spaghetti menu of options for what should be a simple straight forward addon !

you are more than welcome to edit the code for your own personal taste as is anyone else

Peace

Re: Style Pages?

Hello all, I put down the dumbells and started pushing buttons again !

UnknownTracker v0.71

Fixed Stylepages
- before stylepages and runeboxes were ITEMTYPE_CONTAINER
- now stylepages are ITEMTYPE_COLLECTIBLE (API update)

Collectible Gear Sets
- Renamed "Weapons/Armor/Jewellry" option to "Learn/Trade Icons & Group Loot Messages"
- placed this in its own section because having it as the very first option was not enough for some....

"Misc Advanced" is now "Icons Advanced" and "Tooltips Advanced" for niche special options

"Tooltips Advanced"
- new option to "Display Tooltips" (or not)
- new option to "Shorten Tooltip Names" (3 characters or change "local SHORTEN_NAME_LENGTH = 3" in the .lua)
- new option to "Display Tooltip Name Only If Unknown" (to help make the tooltip shorter)

Added an option in the latest version "Tooltips Advanced" > "Display Tooltips" = off

I have the character set to "not learning" on the account but it's still marking it this way.

Note: This icon is odd because it doesn't fit the icon style for the rest of UT... but it turns off if I turn off the UT addon.

Note: I LOVE this addon. I just can't figure out how to turn off research learning icon for items on characters that I'm not actually doing crafting
Its the First option in settings (it was called ""Weapons/Armor/Jewellry" but now its called "Learn/Trade Icons & Group Loot Messages"

fixed with v0.71, let me know if it isnt, I also added more options to "Tooltips Advanced" to maybe help with your long tooltip list, shorten names to 3 characters and/or display name only if unknown

Also, any way to remove the icon when characters are listing as NOT LEARNING would be helpful as I have no reason to have a marker on every item all the time.
And if I'm going to be honest that chat thing is a deal breaker and if you can't fix that I won't be using the app
