Data gathering
 
1 Attachment(s)
I made an addon a few weeks back that allows you to see what item a tier token represents by "comparing" it like you would with any other item.

However, I don't have the time to collect all the data required for this, so I ask you now, the community, for your help.

I need you to the following:
  1. Download this addon attached and install it like any other
  2. Visit some or all of the vendors in the list below (open the vendor list until the addon tells you to stop the 5th time)
  3. Upload your savedvariables (use http://pastebin.com/ and link it)
You do not need to take every class, just take one or part of one if you want to.
Horde/alliance makes no difference, but the vendors might be placed differently.

Anyways, thanks if you want to help.


Quick links to all the relevant vendors (I'm not collecting TotC nor ICC, they use weird tokens)

I will help asap!
Whats wrong with ICC tokens? You need vender token to get normal mode tokens to upgrade to HC tokens thats all.

You probably want to change line 71 to

Code:
if(itemLink and ExonumiaDB[playerClass][tokenID]) then
I'm getting data right now and will post later.

Exonumia is probably not a good name choice, as it's very similar to the name of my addon Exonumist, which isn't related to armor tokens at all. :p

Why not name the addon "TierTokenTip"?
Also, can you make a list in the first post/google spreadsheet on which data you still need?

p3lim 05-28-13 05:05 AM
Updated version attached, thanks for reporting

ICC tokens have one token for every item, and showing 6 tooltips at once is a bit extreme.

"Exonumia are numismatic items (such as tokens, medals, or scrip) other than coins and paper money."

I'll just update the OP from time to time.

Mine tracks currency tokens, which definitely qualify. :p

It's just a little-known word, and having two unrelated addons sharing it seems unnecessarily confusing.

Sure, the addon is far from final anyways so I could change the name if needed.

I just posted hunter data here: http://pastebin.com/KZaKdZVn
Visited shattrath, isle of quel danas, orgrimmar, dalaran, hyjal and townlong steppes. So should be complete :)

Make sure you log out or /reload before copying the contents of the savedvariable file, the one you linked is almost empty.

p3lim 05-28-13 07:17 AM
New version in OP, this one will let you know when you're done with each vendor.

I did, I only visited the required vendors for hunters. I did a /reload after each place to make sure data was saved.

EDIT: I think there's a bug in your collector, every reload it somehow clears the database for the current class...
lua Code:
  1. if(#ExonumiaDB[playerClass] == 0) then
  2.             for _, tokenID in pairs(tokenIDs) do
  3.                 ExonumiaDB[playerClass][tokenID] = ''
  4.             end
  5.         end
should probably be:
lua Code:
  1. --if(#ExonumiaDB[playerClass] == 0) then
  2.             for _, tokenID in pairs(tokenIDs) do
  3.                 ExonumiaDB[playerClass][tokenID] = ExonumiaDB[playerClass][tokenID] or ''
  4.             end
  5.         --end
You can not get the table length of a hash table right?

Mine has hunter, warlock, druid (all vendors visited) and warrior (all but townlong steppes). I had to talk to all vendors twice, as nothing happened the first time the merchant window opened. That was with the first version posted in this thread. I'll collect for rogue and death knight later today (again without townlong steppes as the chars are not lvl 90 yet).

Yeah I figured that caching might be an issue, that's why I added a notice in the last revision rather than handling caching :p
