to fix the "attempt to index global 'AccountBankPanel' (a nil value)" error, I did this and it seems to be working fine.
in LargerMacroIconSelection.lua, change line 37 from
self:Initialize(AccountBankPanel.TabSettingsMenu)
to
self:Initialize(BankPanel.TabSettingsMenu)
There were numerous changes to the bank in 11.2, i.e. No more bank bags or Reagent bank or Void storage. When doing this, they changed the names of some functions and globals.
Is it just me, or is this addon just kaput? I tried to install it for the first time ever 5 weeks ago after finding out about it, but then when I logged in and tried to make a new macro, everything was just in vanilla form, as if the addon wasn't installed at all.
2. go to the addon path (..\World of Warcraft\_retail_\Interface\AddOns\LargerMacroIconSelectionData) and replace the file IconFileNames.lua with the new file you downloaded.
3. restart WoW and you should also see the latest patch 11.1 icons.
In reply to Rubyurek: The entire addon itself isn't working for me. I tried updating via your method, but it didn't help. Could it be just because I haven't purchased TWW expansion? (I don't need TWW-specific icons, I only some sort of method, any method, of making it easier to browse through the list of 700 BILLION icons whenever I make a new macro)

Posted Aug 8, 2025Change AccountBankPanel to just BankPanel in line 37 in LargerMacroIconSelection.lua.
This will let the addon load and add the search line to the new Bank panel

Posted Aug 8, 2025Yeah it looks like it won't show the search box when Baganator is enabled, I will have to look into it further

Posted Aug 6, 2025Actually in addition to the error message below, 11.2 seems to have totally broken the search function: the search text input is just gone

Posted Jul 25, 2025You're welcome. I'd rather not have to set up the new bank tabs coming in 11.2 without LargerMacroIconSelection.
