Transmogrification

[kasca]

Ok been reading the notes. Some reason this stray thought poped up.

Will it ... can it be possable to make a mod to see what someone used for the look. What and where is was from. I mean you see someone with a cool look you like. Not everyone will tell you what they used.

[Vlad]

Isn't this visible on the "enchant" text on the item?

Haven't trans. any gear yet, but maybe you can't see it. :/

It shows up as a pink text at the top of the tooltip, normally.

I haven't gotten to see it yet, but theoretically, they could just add another section to the ItemID that would be the source ItemID used to display the model graphic.

[Vlad]

Take a look at some findings:

(id is either slot or item)

local isTransmogrified, canTransmogrify, cannotTransmogrifyReason, hasPending, hasUndo, visibleItemID, textureName = GetTransmogrifySlotInfo(id)
GameTooltip:SetTransmogrifyItem(id)

I do not see any changes done to the inspection code, so maybe you can't extract what the original item looks like? Hmm...

I mean, we will see but I am certain that perhaps the itemlink contains something, because if you link it to a friend won't they be able to equip it on themselves and check it out? Or will the item keep the original view instead of the custom one?

[SDPhantom]

I'll be able to play around with it within an hour hopefully.

• I was just documenting the Transmogrification API, and GetTransmogrifySlotInfo seems to work outside of the transmogging UI, so you can at least check if your own gear is transmogged
• I also checked Item Links, but they didn't seem to change at all upon transmogging
• GameTooltip:SetTransmogrifyItem(slotId) seems to be only used when there is a pending de(transmogrification) for items in the transmogging UI

So I'm still not sure myself how to see with addons if other people transmogged their gear ..

It's bed for me, patch not online until 1100 anyway, in 8 hours. So bed time!

I am sure you guys will have fun breaking this down and posting updates, hey, don't forget wowprogramming API too, Ketho!

I do also sometimes contribute to wowprogramming, but it has a higher standard and different style/markup to get used to, and you'd need to be Superman imho to contribute to both sites simultaneously

Anyone else notice an additional number added after character level in the item ID? For example [Chief Architect's Monocle] is showing me an item ID of 11839:0:0:0:0:0:0:1497381312:85:0. Notice '85' is my character's level and the '0' after it didn't exist until 4.3.0. Modifying it doesn't seem to do anything nor does it seem to change on a transmogrified item.

That's the reforgeId.
