Version: 1.5.2
by: joshfong [More]
Too many vanity pets and not sure which to use? Let this addon pick a random one for you!

Find any bugs or want something tweaked? Want to contribute a translation? Contact me in-game (@joshfong, PC-NA) or message me on this site.

- API version bump for Scalebreaker.

Version 1.5.1
- API version bump for Wrathstone.

Version 1.5.0

- Added German translation (thank you Baertram!).
- General housekeeping.

Version 1.4.4
- Added support for localization.
- Added French translation (thank you vvarderen!).

- Updated the warning tooltip text for the frequency option.
- Fixed an incorrect initial value.
- Fixed an issue where the frequency dropdown wouldn't populate with the correct setting.
- Refactored some code.
- Added the patch notes to the Readme.

Nice job

Simple and efficient. Can you do the same thing with mounts ?
It will be perfect.

I don't see why not, haha. I can give that a shot in the near future.

seems like it's not choosing all pets (chooses way too much Mudcrab and Daedrat, not one time it chose the Moths, for example, or the little elephant) and even when I select the login option, it keeps changing from zone to zone

great addon tho, definitely will download the mounts one when it comes out.

(could you set a button to randomize pets/mounts on the collections screen? It would be awesome for me.)

Same here. Been using this addon for over a week now. logged on countless times in that period with my 12 alts and of all my 41 pets I only ever see the same 9 every time. Love the idea of this addon and it will be a real shame if this is the only way it works.

That's definitely odd, I will be giving that a glance and see if there's a better way to do it. For what it's worth, I've also been getting a few that pop up more than usual, but every once in a while there'll be one that surprises me. Still -- I'll take a look!

For the frequency option, if you haven't done so you need to reload your UI. At least initially, if you've logged out and then back in you shouldn't have that issue. If that's still the case, I'll investigate.

I'll look into adding that button. For what it's worth though, I am planning to add a slash command (probably just "/randompet") in the near future.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I was looking for something like the Pimp My Ride addon, which was great, but the author have retired. Could you check it out and see if you can do something like it? (Randomizing costumes, mounts, pets, and other vanity items) That would be very much appreciated. The whole community is mourning from the loss of this addon and it seems you are going in this direction anyways.

I have heard of that one! It's cool for sure, but I wanted to try and not rip off that. Maybe draw on it for inspiration, but not directly copy. However, if there's enough demand for something similar, I can certainly look into it.

As for the "not selecting from all pets" issue, I believe I have a fix ready to go and I will push it live tomorrow.

I have been testing the addon since the update for a few hours and I can confirm it's working a lot better now. I will report back if i find any issues but so far so good. Many thanks for the update

Thank you so much! I appreciate translations, as English is my only language. I'll get this added in the next incremental!

Update: I got these strings implemented in the current version of the addon. I did add some strings a couple of patches ago (and have at least one in the pipeline), though; would you be willing to translate those for me?

Lua Code:
  1. "Frequency",
  2. "Needs UI reload.",
  3. "Reload UI",
  4. "Never",

Thanks again for the original translation.

It's not a ripoff if the original author retired and asked someone to take the mantle. *wink* *wink*
