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.

  Hey Jiminimonka, i totally agree and it's exactly the policy in our guild. Tho, some people won't use EPGPLootmaster just because it requires the entire guild to install it. I just wanted to make EPGPLootmaster available to those ppl aswell. And it will provide a solution for the outstanding 'bid helper' enchancement ticket for the EPGP mod. You'll prolly see a message from me there soon ;) Thanks for commenting. By the way: does the auto annouce work as it should again?

  I wont be using the whisper feature, seems to defeat the object, everyone with the addon gets the popup asking for NEED/GREED/PASS, so they get to see what the loot is, those without will have to be manually linked the items, slowing down the process for everyone. So my new rule is: No Addon - No Loot!

  Looks like the Auto-announce on doesnt function properly. I am going to set it to Auto Announce on Legendary for next boss and see how that works.

  In a raid today, and the menu pops up, but the Announce button isnt there. It works for greens etc., but for EPIC, I have to announce each item to each player individually - making looting slower than ever.

  Thanks Jiminimonka,

  Upcoming version will auto disable the 'ask for cost' popup in EPGP and will nolonger show the message about the raid tracker. You can also disable the ask for cost popup from the EPGP settings.

  I tried using this last night. Seemed to work OK, however it seems to be looking for a raid tracker addon (dont need to see that error message since I dont use it). Also, when it gave out the GP for items, it didn't suppress the EPGP one either, so I gave out GP twice for the same item, easily undone but still don't want it popping up twice.

  Thanks Ahlak, i have took the time to respond to all your tickets. I hope you'll decide on using lootmaster for your guild. I will certainly try to get in contact with the EPGP maintainer. Thanks for your comments!
