LilSparky's Workshop
LilSparky's Workshop adds auction-derived pricing information for trade skills right into the trade skill recipe frame. Each skill is evaluated for material costs and potential value of the item created. These two numbers are listed next to each skill in an easy-to-read format.
Supported Auction Scanners:
- Auctioneer
- AuctionLite
- AuctionMaster
- Auctionator
Optionally Requires:
- Informant (for vendor availability)
LibPeriodicTable (for vendor availability)
Trade Skill Interfaces Supported:
- GnomeWorks
- AdvancedTradeSkillWindow
- Skillet
- Blizzard's Standard UI
- Doublewide Tradeskills
- Tradeskill HD
Auction pricing models can be selected by right-clicking either the value column or the cost column (each can have a different pricing method attached).
The Value column can be left clicked to cycle through the different valuation methods for the resultant item: Auction Value (a), Vendor Value (v), Disenchant Value (d) or the greatest of the three different values (the default). Any instance of an item Value being greater than the Cost to create it will have a highlighted Value entry. Optionally, the Value column can be displayed as a percentage of the Cost column.
The Cost column simply sums up the costs for each reagent and reports the total.
Both columns can be combined into a single "Profit" column which simply reflects the Value minus the Cost.
Tooltips for each column give more details about the price breakdowns LSW is considering.
A note regarding vendor availability:
LSW utilizes supplied item databases to determine when an item is readily available from a vendor. Occasionally this may not be accurate, usually because the item is a trade in for another item and not buyable with gold. I have provided a simple way to over-ride the vendor database:
/script LSWConfig.vendorOverride[item#] = (true/false/nil)
The item# is the item ID for the specific item. It is a single number. For example, 2589 is Linen Cloth.
Setting the value to "true" means the item is available at the vendor.
Setting the value to "false" means the item is not available at the vendor.
Setting the value to "nil" means to use the provided databse.
There is now also a right-click option to override the vendor availability and also to hand enter specific prices for items.
A note about frame/auction support:
LSW utilizes a plug in scheme to handle support to handle pricing and frame support. I am unlikely to add additional plugins directly into LSW. The goal of the plugin system is to provide basic templates that other addon authors could employ to provide LSW support on their end while at the same time providing functionality for a base set of common mods. Addon authors are free to contact me regarding the plugin system if issues arise or the system doens't make sense.
Hello, i have a problem with the level near the recipe's name, i see at same recipe the exact level and in other "f..." what is this?? i use Skillet+LilSparky's Workshop. Thank u :) :)
One problem I've been having with this addon when used with GnomeWorks is that every single time an item is crafted or moved in my inventory it re-caches(At the top of Gnomeworks a progress bar appears saying [LSW: Caching Prices]) the prices and causes crafting to be horrendously annoying. I tried uninstalling and re-installing both addons but nothing changed. Sometimes it even glitches out and when I scroll down in gnomeworks it takes me back to a previous recipe I crafted during this UI lagg.
hey mine says out of date is there gonna be an update mine not working at all???
Love this add-on but have 1 small issue with it. It will never show the AH pricing of the Enchant bracer : Agility Others work, but this one does not. I use Auctionator as AH addon.
Could this issue be with Lilsparky?
Thanks for your time,
i've designed lsw to be pluggable from either inside of lsw or from inside of other mods. so either lsw can attempt to support the various pricing mods out there, or they can add lsw support.
that bit of code can pretty much be anywhere, so long as it executes after lsw has been loaded.
i'll check out that mod and see if it makes sense to support it or if the author of tuj would rather support lsw...
A simple interface to 'averageprice' out of The Undermine Journal's 'TheUndermineJournal' addon (put into the file pricingSupport/tuj_support.lua):
If you haven't checked out theunderminejournal.com, you should!!
I just left a comment on the gnomeworks page, and realized that it makes more sense here. I've been using an addon from theunderminejournal.com which can be generated to hold all the AH data up to the minute that the addon is created. How hard would it be to add this as an option to LilSparky?
please please please :) add "AuctionDB Market Value" + "AuctionDB Min Buyout" to the pricing alternatives. Its the databases used by TSM :) Their GetAll scan of the auctionhouse is alot better(read faster) than both Auctioneer and Auctionator, so it would be awesome if you could find the time to add it to the list of possible choices. This will help you stay competative aswell, TSM_crafting module is apparently ok, according to some forums. But I like gnomeworks! :)
