Loot Filter alternative?

Anyone know of one? LF is all buggy to hell and doesn't look like the major one's are being worked out anytime soon, the big one being that it stops functioning at random.

I've lost enough items to it, so I'm looking for something along the same lines.

I agree that Lootfilter misses a lot of loots, need to be replaced by something lighter and stabler like an ace3 version, the author don't play no more to wow I think

ExcessBaggage still works, and I hope to rewrite the majority of its code in the not to distant future.

Agreed. Giving this a try. Thx for all responses so far.

finally tried KarniCrap filter but that is really worse than LF even bugged because it does not loot + delete, it just loot what you do not filter so in the case you are rushing lowbie instance with several stacked corps, you loot and reloot always same corps because you are not sure you missed corps to loot by this method, all filtered corps stays highlighted making unlooted corps very difficult to find..... The mod does not even provide a feature to loot + delete instead of just forcing us to filter what is to loot, find it totally obsolete mod because I do not win times at all and probably worse because I'm loosing much time at finding out which corps is looted, which one is not, and not well designed.

Excess Baggage will only delete items when all your normal bags are full, so that might be your problem. It makes sense to me that you would only want to have 1 bag space free at any time.

Mera	03-07-09 09:11 AM

ha ok I see I will try that way I usualy remove stuffs before it gets full, maybe a suggestion would be to allow instant delete or delete only when full that would be nice options to keep bags cleans

Mera	03-08-09 04:46 AM

Hi Slakah, not working for some reasons:

The mod does not recognize hunter's quivers so the mod always thinks my bag has empty slots and is deleting nothing when really full.
Need an option to instant delete, you actual method as several caveats: the need of full bags to have it starting working so if by chance you run some lowbie instance without having bag fulls at the end the mod is totally obsolete
The method will trigger a wow error message that is boring, IE "your bags are full" => delete => loot => "your bags are full" => delete => loot, too much work for something that could be done a simpler way, to me this method should be offered as an option and NOT a default option.

That is a few reasons probably why it has so few downloads

Code:

/run DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Bag:"); for bag = 0, 4 do; DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(GetBagName(bag),select(2, GetContainerNumFreeSlots(bag)));end

can you type that please and tell me what number it gives your quiver?

Also I may add a nuke my bags option later.

Mera	03-08-09 06:09 AM

I made very small changes to the macro because was spawning errors here

Code:

/script print("Bag:");for bagtest = 0, 4 do print(GetBagName(bagtest),select(2, GetContainerNumFreeSlots(bagtest))) end;

here is the result

Code:

Bag:

Sac à dos 0

Sac "gigantesque" 0

Sac "gigantesque" 0

Sac en tisse-givre 0

Carquois nérubien renforcé 1

Its that quiver
in case you need link, there is also mats bags to think ignoring so because there is several special containers like that ingame

That means it "should" ignore the quiver, soo I don't know what's going wrong.
