First Few Updates for Patch 5.2

Patch 5.2 “The Thunder King” for World of Warcraft was released three weeks ago and Patch 5.3 “Escalation” has already appeared on the public test realms!

I have been a very busy little bee since the release of Patch 5.2, buzzing around the new content and stinging any addon errors that cropped up.

Several of my projects have received a number of updates over the weeks including TradeSkillInfo, Chinchilla Minimap, SignOn and BottleCap. The website itself also got a new coat of paint and plenty of tweaks have been made behind the scenes.

TradeSkillInfo Updated to Version 2.2.7

Version 2.2.7 of TradeSkillInfo was released a few days ago with numerous updates to the recipe database and a small fix for the search feature in the Browser module.

This version is mostly a maintenance release and does not yet have the new Blacksmithing recipes in the database. The information will be added in Version 2.2.8, which is currently scheduled for release shortly after World of Warcraft is updated to Patch 5.2 in a few weeks time.

HandyNotes for Lunar Festival Updated Again

Version 1.1.2 of HandyNotes for Lunar Festival was released earlier today. This updates solves a few issues with “phased” zones, such as Uldum and Mount Hyjal.

Patch Notes:

  • Fixed map marker pins not always showing up in “phased” zones.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented waypoints from being created in “phased” zones.
  • Added the name of the Elder NPC to the context menu.

You can download the new version here.

The Lunar Festival will end on February 9th 2013 so unless any other problems appear, development of this addon will begin to slow down.

HandyNotes for Lunar Festival updated to Version 1.1

Version 1.1 of HandyNotes for Lunar Festival was released on Curse a few minutes ago which should solve the startup issues experienced by… pretty much everyone who installed the addon.

The bug was caused by me using a simple date check to determine if the Lunar Festival was active in-game or not, but this turned out to cause a lot more problems than I intended to solve.

So I removed it. The addon should now load properly for everyone.

An unfortunate side-effect of this is that any unvisited Elders will now show up on the worldmap and the minimap all the time instead of only during the Lunar Festival. I highly recommend that, if the marker pins are getting in the way, you disable or uninstall the addon when the Lunar Festival ends in early February.

This new version also fixes the marker pins of Elder Primestone and Elder Windtotem, with thanks going to GitHub user killerpommes for the patch.

I am very sorry for the inconveniences caused by this. I tried to be clever, but it didn’t work out this time. It will not happen again.
