EPGPLootmaster

EPGP Lootmaster

EPGP Lootmaster provides a nice GUI for distributing loot and GP to the raid.

It sends a popup and a message to all raid members with the question wether they want the loot or not and sends this response to the master looter. The ML gets a nice list of every raider's choices sorted by EP/GP (more info on EPGP here).

Whisper system

This mod nolonger requires everyone in your raid to install it! Raid members can now just whisper the master looter with a simple message:

/w masterlooter !epgp need/greed/pass [itemlink]

This, however, will not send the current equipment to the master looter ui. It's still strongly suggested that everyone installs the mod, but it's nolonger mandatory. The master looter, of course, still needs to install it ;)

Installation

Just copy the epgp_lootmaster and epgp_lootmaster_ml directories from the zipfile to your addons directory or use the Curse Installer. When you configure your addons in wow you'll get two entries:

EPGP LootMaster - Core: Everyone in raid needs to enable this.
EPGP LootMaster - ML: Only Master Looter needs to enable this, most raiders will probably get dependency missing because EPGP isn't installed. This is no problem, just leave it disabled. The Master Looter however does need to install EPGP.

Config

/lm options for some basic options.

Auto announce threshold: sets what kind of item raid members automatically get to see.
Auto looter: sets a raid members that will automatically receive BoE and BoU items below the threshold (for disenchantment or bank).
Listen for incoming monitor updates: Enabling this will make your client listen from updates from the master looter. It will show you the exact same interface as the master looter. This way you could help deciding who gets the loot.

Use

Just install this mod on every raid member. Set someone up a master looter. As soon as the ML tries to loot something, epgp_lootmaster will detect it and will try to handle the distribution for you. epgp_lootmaster will also handle the GP distribution for you and should automatically disable the EPGP GP input popup. You can also manually disable this popup from the EPGP options panel.

/lm version or /lm versioncheck

This will show you an interface where you can see wether the members of your guild or raid have installed lootmaster and what version.

Since you can't find him on your list, you probably have to initialize his officer notes. Just edit the officer notes (you can ignore the warning EPGP will give you) and set it to 0,0. The first 0 is EP, the second is GP. So you can also set it to something else if you wish, just make sure the use the correct format (no spaces, only digits and one comma).

@novalkr - EPGP (not EPGP LootMaster) stores its information in officer notes, so when someone leaves the guild, their officer note is cleared. Tell him not to fool around anymore, or go to the epgp website and start uploading your logs so every time someone leaves the guild 'for a laugh' you can spend your time restoring the information.

I have a question and need a little help. We recently had someone who left the guild playing around and was invited back right after. When he came back though he was not on our epgp list and we have not been able to get him back on the list. Can anyone help me with this ?

Ps. I love this addon. Best thing i've used for guild in a long time.

Hi,

The Icecrown raid is added to the raid ID saved list, but its not working, shows everyone as not saved on 10 & 25. The other raids are working fine however.

Can you add the Icecrown raids to the Raid ID part of the addon when you get some time please. Cheers.

Merry Christmas!

Copied from the EPGPLootmaster page at curse.com:

Yes, numerous threads have been started on the EPGP forums about this. This is a major shortcoming of the EPGP system or the officer notes where the values are stored, really. Only ONE person should handle EP and GP in a raid or you will get this kind of troubles. Let me try to explain what happend:

Lets say raider 1 has 100 EP and 50 GP at the start of a raid and you have one person handling EP and another GP. The officer notes get updated every 10 secs (yes, omg!)

Raider 1 EPGP: 100,50 Leader 1 and Leader 2 have 100,50 for Raider 1 in their officer notes. Leader 1 awards 150 GP to Raider 1 Leader 1 now has 100,200 in his note, but this gets transmitted after 10 secs. Leader 2 still has 100,50 in his note for Raider 1 Leader 2 awards 100 EP to the raid, so adds that to Raider 1's local value Leader 2 writes 200,50 to the officer notes.

So you can see, if EPGP modifications are done by two different players within about 10 secs, they will overwrite one another's values. Therefore

!!WARNING!! ONLY LET ONE PERSON DISTRIBUTE EP AND GP IN A SINGLE RAID

Just last night I used version 3.6 and experienced similar behavior. Not sure what the percentage is, but several (5 or 6 people) in last night's raid got items that the addon reported, but at the end of the night we noticed their GP had not changed. Also, Is there some kind of interaction between this addon and the base EPGP mod? I use version 5.5.5 of that one and we use it to assign automatic hourly EP......

Hello, I think there is a bug in the latest (0.3.57) version of EPGP Lootmaster. We have been using the mod for 9 months, and this is the first time we have noticed this behavior. I opened a ticked on epgp's site as well.

http://code.google.com/p/epgp/issues/detail?id=514&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Version%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars

Basically the mod is reporting that it is adding GP to someone, but it actually assigns the GP only 50% of the time. We are having to watch the officer notes closely and manually add the GP fairly often.

Thanks for making the mod, our guild quite enjoys using it.

Just tried it now. He typed in /ra with the window up and nothing appeared for him (as the ML) or me (as normal raid member monitoring), so it looks like it's being intercepted by lootmaster!

Thanks Mackatack

I've had anoother word, and it's not as I first thought.

It's not the focus that's being stolen. It's actually the filter for chat which isn't functioning as i'd expect. It would seem he's able to type normally into chat, but it's being intercepted.

What I don't know yet is if: a) Your latest patch fixes this... b) Other people in the raid can see what he's typing even though he can't.

I'll try and test this tonight and let you know ASAP what's occuring.
