GupPet

What is GupPet:

GupPet is an add-on that gives an extension for mounting and calling critters. By a single click it mounts a ground, swimming or fly mount depending on the players location. Because most players have plenty of mounts and companions, and you probably like more than one, the add-on can randomly select mounts/companions depending on the selections in the option menu.

Basic Features:

Randomly selects a mount / companion location dependent.
Class support for Druids , Shamans and Mages
Automatically summons a companion
3d model preview
Buttonfacade support
And many more !

In game usage:

There are 3 types of controls.

Action buttons (Adds buttons and are move, hide ,scale and Changeable .)
Key Binds
Slash Commands

“Collect Me” extension:

The collect me extension is based on the database of the original add-on by Merla and has been extended a bit . ( Duo the new version the unknown mounts show the last known mount )

How it works:

GupPet uses a small database to split the mounts that the player currently has learned. The splitting is based on type (ground, swimming or fly) and speed. When using the auto mount function the add-on will always try to select the fastest possible option, but if you can fly in an area the add-on select the flyable over the ground type. If your are swimming the aquatic will be selected above the other two types.

For the critters GupPet uses a small database to detect if a critter uses a type of reagent to call it, for some types you need a snowball. The add-on detects if you have that reagent with you and if not, the add-on won't select that type of critter.

Language support:

The languages that are currently supported are English , German ( Tnx to Farook at Curse) , Spanish ( Tnx to StiviS at Curse ) and Russian ( Tnx to StingerSoft at WowInterface.) With the none-supported languages the zone detection is not supported and therefore forces the two mount action buttons.

Commands

The start command is '/GP' or '/GupPet'. ( The mounting slash commands don't support abilities with spells )

Known Issues:

If you or a patch clears your WoW Cache folder, you may experience an invalid list of mounts or a failure to select some mounts for your first login after the cache was cleared. Try logging out and then back in.

It's been sometime since you patched this and there are several mounting errors starting to happen and mount not listed as they should be, would be nice to see some fixes. Love this addon, missing it working correctly.

I just got the Cenarion War Hippogryph. This is a flying mount that can be used as a ground mount in areas where flying is not allowed, but Guppet doesn't list it in the ground mount tab.

Could you support flying pets like you do for flying mounts ? The complete list is on http://www.warcraftpets.com/wow.pets/filter.asp?mobility=Air_%28flies_alongside_flying_mount%29

There's already an option to dismiss pet when taking a mount. An option do dismiss non-flying pet when taking a flying mount would be awesome ! An option to use only flying pets in flyable areas (if you can use a flying mount) would be great also.

There's now 51 flying pets, this represents arouns a quarter of the total number of pets.

Would be great if you could change that if GupPet doesn't find a valid Mounting-Profile for the current subregion a char is in it will check for the main region first before selecting the global profile.

My Problem is, I want to configure GupPet, so my Abyssian Seahorse is only called when in Vashj'ir... It's difficult enough to set up all the main regions there without the subregions. So I want to set up profiles for the regions in Vashj'ir, disabling all ground mounts and activating the seahorse... But when I'm in a sub-region (i.e. in a cave or something similar) the main region profiles are not checked... And thus my normal mounts are called again...
