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.

  @elrond2002: Yeah i've made a patch which currently isn't officially supported by the EPGP addon. You can use my patch to hack LibGuildStorage manually for now. Im currently working together with the EPGP maintainer to merge EPGPLootmaster. Once that is complete, native 'outsider' support will be built into EPGP.

  I tried it out. The multiscreens works great and is a good timesaver. However, could you post in your 'guide' how to enable the outsider support. I have 'ext:Joker' in my alt's public notes and equivalent for other outsiders but it isn't picking up in the LM screens nor is awarding of gp possible. Although I should note that the epgp addon isn't picking it up either so that may be part of it.

  @elrond2002: It will show the names of the people in your raid, so it will show the name of the outsider, not the alt ;)

  It's going to be even nicer, just hold on a little longer ;) I hope you've already discovered that you can announce the items all at the same time, by just right-clicking everything? It will create multiple selection popups at the same time, this will save even more waiting time. I wish you happy looting ;)

  Mackatack. Awesome. Small follow up. Will it show the alt name or the name of the outsider. Given the structure of the game I'm not surprised that I as officer of my guild can only access the officer notes of my guild and not of any of the other guilds.

  As a side note I've asked the person(s) behind the epgp if they could change the logic around the outsiders patch away from using alts. My guild could end up with more outsider alts than actual members and my GM isn't too fond of that idea.

  I started using this addon about 2 weeks ago to get used to it and I managed the points in a spreadsheet but everyone really liked the way lootmaster was working. Nice and easy screens. This should become a huge time saver... 4 items of each Naxx boss... we sat there sometimes for 15 minutes divvying it up. This should reduce it hopefully to under 5 min.

  @elrond2002: Yeah, i have made that patch and i have tested it, works like a charm. Please note that it will only read the officer notes for members and the outsider alts for the guild the loot master is a member of.

  Will this work with the patch on epgp for outsiders. I think this system is great but my guild is small but good at organizing raids. We raid frequently with 3 set allied guilds. As LM i need to manage their points which I can do. However, how will this system respond to it? Will it pick it up if I have ext: in the notes of the alts?

  I dont think mackatack should be working out how to make his addon backward compatible, you wanna run a private server, figure it out yourself.

  boniuss: Im currently VERY busy with the looting addon. Supporting non official servers is currently not my priority. You might wanna try editing the toc file and see if it runs, but since there have been so many changes in the wow client it probably won't work.
