When hovering over a meat, this adds cooking recipe and quest information to the tooltip.

The recipes are listed in the same color code as your character's cooking level, and it also shows the levels when the next two color codes will be activated. If the recipe isn't orange or yellow for your current character, it will show if there are alts that can use it. (use switch "/cookhelp altsoff" to disable). If the meat is used in a quest, it shows the number needed, quest level, and which faction the quest is available for (B for both).


I've finished a utility that scrapes WowHead to create the Meat and Recipe tables. Assuming no major errors, it will reduce the time for updating from several hours to a few minutes. Beta versions 1.90 and 1.95 include tables created by this utility.

I'll be starting work on the Alchemy addon that Ruadh had requested once I fix my computer. Hopefully it will be early next week.


1.95 Beta
All languages should work now with the exception of additional notes. I'll try to change it so quest info is pulled from the game so they won't need to be translated.
Updated to 5.3

1.90 Beta
MoP recipes should all be included now
Memory usage reduced by at least 60%
Updates done (mostly) automatically, which cuts my time spent updating tables by about 95%
Notes split into its own file

What I want to check in this Beta:
* Any color codes that have the wrong numbers. I have no reason to not trust WowHead, but it's possible some are wrong
* What happens with meats, like Viseclaw Meat, that have the same yellow, green, and gray values
* Any missing meats or recipes
* Find any recipes, like Ethereal Oil, that use meats for recipes that aren't cooking

1.72b
Fixed glitch where some alts were being shown as both green and red.
Changed known indicator symbol to the cooking skill icon.

1.71b
Added logic to tell whether a recipe is known or not. It works for both your current character and your alts. In order for the alts to be shown, you have to open the cooking pane for them once. If it's known, a pound sign will show after the recipe name. I tried an asterisk and plus sign, but they seemed too small to be easily recognizable.
Added a campfire button to the cooking pane. Right now, it's docked to the right side of the pane. Whenever I get the options menu finished, it should have customizable size and location.

1.70b
Updated with new meats from Cataclysm. Most of the updates were to the tables, but a few changes had to be made to the code as well. I tested all of the scenarios that I could think of, and haven't found any errors, but it's possible that some exist that I haven't found. Please let me know if you find any .
Most of the orange/yellow/etc values were taken from wowhead and not from actual gameplay. It's likely that they are accurate, but if you find any that aren't, please let me know those as well. If you find any meats that have "Meat: item ID" in the tooltip, it's one that I missed and can be added if you send me the id.

To Do list:
Use own tooltip window
Look into adding achievement info
Look into the recipe radar again: The first time, I found that it was over my head. It still may be, but it will be worth looking into again
