<h1>A brief history of Pawn</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For recent version history, see the <a href="Readme.htm">Pawn readme</a>.
|
|
(I got tired of the version history section of the <a href="Readme.htm">
|
|
readme</a> being longer than the rest of it, so I moved parts here.)</p>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: The individual schools of spell damage
|
|
(of Fiery Wrath, etc.) will now show up on the Weights tab like they did in
|
|
Classic Era and Burning Crusade Classic, though those stats are no longer
|
|
found on Northrend items.</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Added a new version of the default
|
|
protection paladin stat weights with some small adjustments to optimize for
|
|
threat generation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Fixed Pawn's gem recommendations for
|
|
Burning Crusade items on the Wrath pre-patch. (The Northrend gem
|
|
recommendations were correct, but the Outland gems were still being
|
|
recommended based on their old stats from Burning Crusade.)</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Added support for ranged attack power on
|
|
more types of items in all languages.</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Added support for spell power on items
|
|
"of Sorcery" in French and Latin American Spanish.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The list of scales will now display a warning at the top if you don't
|
|
have any scales visible. (Most of Pawn's features don't do anything if no
|
|
scales are visible, but it's okay to ignore the warning if that's what you
|
|
really want.)</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: The first time you log in on a death
|
|
knight after updating, Pawn will re-show all of the death knight starter
|
|
scales if you don't have any custom scales shown.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Ranged attack power will now show up in
|
|
the list of stat weights and on the Compare tab again.</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Added support for armor penetration and
|
|
expertise on more types of items in all languages.</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Added support for attack power on more
|
|
types of items in European Spanish, Latin American Spanish, and Traditional
|
|
Chinese.</li>
|
|
<li>Includes Russian translation updates.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Fixed a problem that started occurring
|
|
after the latest Wrath update that caused Pawn to sometimes stop annotating
|
|
tooltips for a while after you changed anything about your current scales
|
|
(changing visibility, changing stat weights, etc.).</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Fixed a problem where some specs were
|
|
getting hit, crit, and haste ratings of 1 instead of 0 or a fraction as
|
|
intended.</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Fixed a typo that caused the default
|
|
spell power weight for discipline priests to be 100⨉ what it was intended to
|
|
be. Oops.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: The death knight starter scales now
|
|
indicate in the name whether they're providing advice for tanking or DPS.</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Feral attack power now works as it did
|
|
in Pawn 1.1 back when Wrath was new—it's not a real stat on items in Wrath,
|
|
but it appears on tooltips when playing a druid. A value you assign to feral
|
|
attack power will work the same as if it were a real stat, like before the
|
|
pre-patch. You can assign points to melee weapon DPS or feral attack power,
|
|
but you probably don't want to assign points to both.</li>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Fixed a problem where weapon DPS was
|
|
contributing more to an item's score than intended when using the default
|
|
stat weights.</li>
|
|
<li>Traditional Chinese Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Pawn now supports
|
|
Wrath Classic (including the pre-patch) in Traditional Chinese.</li>
|
|
<li>German Wrath of the Lich King Classic: Includes a minor translation
|
|
update.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Wrath of the Lich King Classic pre-patch: Today's Wrath Classic patch
|
|
broke addons that need to detect which version of the game you're playing,
|
|
including Pawn. This version of Pawn should work correctly again after that
|
|
change.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.6</h3>
|
|
<p>This version introduces support for the Wrath of the Lich King Classic
|
|
pre-patch.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>There are all-new default stat weights for all classes and specs,
|
|
including death knights, curated by HawsJon (thanks!). These should provide
|
|
more accurate advice for level 80 and the mechanics changes in the
|
|
pre-patch.<ul>
|
|
<li>As always, simulating your character and maintaining custom stat
|
|
weights will yield even better advice, specifically tailored for your
|
|
character.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Spell damage and spell healing have been converted into a single stat,
|
|
spell power. Existing custom scales will be converted automatically by
|
|
choosing the better of the two weights, and then you can continue to adjust
|
|
as needed.</li>
|
|
<li>Hit, crit, and haste have been converted from individual melee and spell
|
|
ratings to a single rating each. Existing custom scales will be converted
|
|
automatically by choosing the better of the two weights, and then you can
|
|
continue to adjust as needed.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now includes data for the Wrath of the Lich King Classic gems, but
|
|
it won't start suggesting those gems until you start getting Northrend gear.
|
|
You can still browse them on the Gems tab.</li>
|
|
<li>There is currently no way to distinguish between armor and bonus
|
|
armor—sorry, bear tanks.</li>
|
|
<li>This version of Pawn will not work properly in Traditional
|
|
Chinese on Wrath Classic due to an updated translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>This version also includes minor fixes for Shadowlands, Classic Era, and The
|
|
Burning Crusade.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Added Pawn annotations to the tooltips for converted items
|
|
at the Creation Catalyst. (Thanks Triadian!)</li>
|
|
<li>Classic: Fixed a problem with the default stat weights where Pawn was
|
|
suggesting dual-wielding weapons for protection warriors and paladins
|
|
instead of using a shield.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.38</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Burning Crusade Classic: The new Shattered Sun gems for Content Phase 5 will now show
|
|
up in recommendations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.37</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed that annoying problem where the green tooltip border would
|
|
overstay its welcome if you hovered over an upgrade item and then something
|
|
else like a spell button.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.36</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Burning Crusade Classic: Added support for new Zul'Aman items that use a
|
|
different wording for their spell damage and healing. (Thanks wwwbbat!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.35</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Includes new stat weights for all classes and specs from
|
|
Ask Mr. Robot.</li>
|
|
<li>Burning Crusade Classic: Pawn will now suggest Runed and Bright Crimson
|
|
Spinel, as appropriate.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.34</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Burning Crusade Classic: Fixed a problem where the spell damage portion
|
|
of Teardrop Crimson Spinel was getting counted toward healing as well (30
|
|
healing and 8 spell damage, but it should be 22+8) in Russian.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.33</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Pawn no longer values domination sockets since domination
|
|
shards no longer function outside of the Maw.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.32</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Burning Crusade Classic: The new gems for Content Phase 3 will now show
|
|
up in recommendations, and will be taken into account when determining the
|
|
value of sockets on Black Temple gear.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.31</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You can now type things like "/pawn tooltip 186767" or "/pawn tooltip
|
|
186459::::::::60:257:::1:7883:2:9:60:28:888" to reconstruct an item in-game,
|
|
for example if you see its item ID on a screenshot from someone who has
|
|
Pawn's "Show item IDs" option enabled. (You probably won't ever need to use
|
|
this, but it should be handy for me!)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed MP5 detection on some items in the German version of Classic Era
|
|
Season of Mastery. (Burning Crusade Classic and other languages were not
|
|
affected.) (Thanks ruffiely!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.30</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where domination sockets were undervalued in the default
|
|
Ask Mr. Robot scales for tanks and healers.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.29</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed the look of the socketing advisor tooltip on WoW 9.1.5, which also
|
|
fixes an error that started with 9.1.5.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.28</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where domination sockets could get counted twice.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a minor bug where Pawn's socketing advisor would stay visible when
|
|
shift-right-clicking an item with a prismatic socket and then
|
|
shift-right-clicking an item with a domination socket, without first closing
|
|
the socketing window.</li>
|
|
<li>If you have scale values visible on tooltips (they're hidden by
|
|
default), you can now hover over the Pawn button when inspecting another
|
|
player to see their total scores (using <em>your</em> character's scales) on
|
|
Classic, like you can in Shadowlands. </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.27</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Items with only a domination socket will no longer show a blank
|
|
socketing advisor when you shift-right-click them, since Pawn doesn't
|
|
suggest domination shards.</li>
|
|
<li>You can now assign a value to domination sockets on an item. For Pawn's
|
|
default scales, I've chosen a very conservative value for the stat that
|
|
assumes that you <em>aren't</em> raiding Sanctum of Domination. The initial
|
|
value I've chosen is 45× the value of Leech, which is provided by the
|
|
Desolate Shard of Rev which anyone can easily attain without raiding. For
|
|
someone who does raid Sanctum of Domination and has access to better shards
|
|
and their class's domination set bonus, this default value will be far too
|
|
low, so you'll want to increase it to something more appropriate.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.26</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The "color tooltip border of upgrades" feature now works again without
|
|
errors on the 9.1.5 PTR.</li>
|
|
<li>Incorporated a couple of changes from players on CurseForge that will
|
|
hopefully improve compatibility between Pawn and ArkInventory.</li>
|
|
<li>Burning Crusade Classic: Added support for new types of items with holy
|
|
spell damage in English, French, Russian, Latin American Spanish, European
|
|
Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese versions of Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.25</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Additional Pawn updates to accomodate changes made in French Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic, and to fix a bug I introduced in the previous version that
|
|
only affected French versions of the game.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.24</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now once again recognize specific schools of spell damage on
|
|
items in French Burning Crusade Classic. (Other languages, Classic Era, and
|
|
Shadowlands were not affected.)</li>
|
|
<li>Made a couple of small changes to help make French compatibility
|
|
problems easier to fix in the future.<ul>
|
|
<li>For the curious, in French it's normal to put a space before AND
|
|
after a colon, as in "Équipé : Augmente...". Sometimes, Blizzard uses a
|
|
"non-breaking space" instead of a regular space before the colon, and a
|
|
regular space after, which is also common. Unfortunately, they're not
|
|
consistent; sometimes they just use two regular spaces. And you
|
|
can't <em>see</em> the difference, but to code,
|
|
those two spaces are as different as A and Z. With this change, Pawn will now always treat
|
|
non-breaking spaces and regular spaces the same.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.23</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixes a harmless but annoying error that could occur when interacting
|
|
with socketed items in Shadowlands.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.22</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a few bugs relating to meta sockets in Burning Crusade Classic.
|
|
The base values of helms with meta sockets will be (correctly) somewhat
|
|
higher after this change, and the current values of a fully-socketed helm
|
|
(if you have those turned on) may be significantly higher.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn couldn't read the damage stats on the few
|
|
rare crossbows that deal an exact, non-random damage with every attack
|
|
(Crossbow of the Albatross, Fine Light Crossbow) on French versions of
|
|
Classic Era and Burning Crusade Classic. Other languages and other crossbows
|
|
were not affected.</li>
|
|
<li>Added some additional debugging information to help me understand some
|
|
tricky aspects of gem calculations in the future. (That means even more chat
|
|
spam when debug mode is on!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.21</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When using the option to ignore gems while leveling (which is <em>
|
|
enabled</em> by default) on Burning Crusade Classic, Pawn will now no longer
|
|
suggest that you use gems on items with an item level below 100. This means
|
|
that those items will get lower values, and also that Pawn will no longer
|
|
suggest using green-quality gems in any item by default. You can restore the
|
|
(approximate) previous behavior by disabling that option on the Options tab.
|
|
(That option affects all characters.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more items with spell crit in English and French
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>A few Shattered Sun / Sunwell gems that don't appear until Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic Phase 3 have been removed from recommendations, since
|
|
they're not available yet.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where socket bonuses would always be ignored on items in
|
|
Traditional Chinese Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug on Burning Crusade Classic where the Compare tab would show
|
|
a socket bonus even when it would be better to ignore the socket bonus and
|
|
only use your best gems. (Item values and upgrade advice were not affected;
|
|
this was just a display issue.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a harmless error that would appear when logging in on Traditional
|
|
Chinese versions of WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>Slightly improved performance on Italian Shadowlands.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.20</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn should finish its item calculations about 5% faster now.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with melee and ranged crit rating
|
|
in French, Latin American Spanish, European Spanish, Korean, and Simplified
|
|
Chinese Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.19</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an error that could appear when hovering over an item ("attempt to
|
|
get length of field 'Values' (a nil value)").</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with different amounts of spell
|
|
damage and healing on the same line of the tooltip in Russian Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with MP5 in French Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.18</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>While leveling in Shadowlands (non-Classic), Pawn will now suggest
|
|
potential upgrades to heirloom items that used to provide an experience
|
|
boost, since those items no longer do and there's less of a downside to
|
|
replacing them.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of "the Sorcerer" items in Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic in several languages.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with MP5 in Simplified Chinese and
|
|
Traditional Chinese Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with different amounts of spell
|
|
damage and healing on the same line of the tooltip in Traditional Chinese
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.17</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>I'm trying out a new workaround for a couple of game bugs that caused
|
|
Pawn to work much more slowly on Classic Era and Burning Crusade Classic.<ul>
|
|
<li>Other than just still not being fast enough, the most likely thing
|
|
that might break with this change is Pawn missing some of the stats on
|
|
items that appear in green text, such as ratings in Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic. (I haven't spotted any bugs with those—but if anything did
|
|
break, it's probably that.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Additional performance improvements that affect all versions of the
|
|
game.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.16</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with crit rating on German Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.15</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of Wrath items (Fiery Wrath, etc.).</li>
|
|
<li>Added "Thrown weapon" to the list of weapon types that you can add
|
|
values to (or mark as unusable) on the Values tab for Classic Era and
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Classes that can't use thrown weapons have them marked as unusable in
|
|
the default scales, so by default they won't show as potential upgrades.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with spell damage and healing on
|
|
the same line of the tooltip, and more with MP5, on English Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more types of items with crit rating on Russian
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a couple of bugs causing health regeneration on items to not be
|
|
recognized on French versions of the game.</li>
|
|
<li>Further improved the formatting of how some item IDs are displayed.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>On Classic and Burning Crusade Classic, Pawn will no longer suggest mail
|
|
as upgrades for hunters and shamans or plate for warriors and paladins
|
|
before level 40 in some places.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for additional types of items with shield block rating and
|
|
dodge rating.</li>
|
|
<li>You can now use Enter and Escape to close the popups that appear when
|
|
using the Scale tab (export, confirm delete, etc.).</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now claim that fewer items have "special effects" on the
|
|
Compare tab if the "special effect" is something at the top of the item
|
|
tooltip like "Mythic." (This doesn't affect item values or upgrade advice in
|
|
any way, just the orange diamond on the Compare tab.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn was suggesting random items instead of cut
|
|
Golden Draenite gems. (The item values and upgrade advice were correct; it
|
|
was just showing the wrong item name. I apologize to anyone who tried to
|
|
shove a two-handed mace into a yellow gem socket.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where shamans were being treated as if they could
|
|
dual-wield on Classic Era.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for items with spell penetration in Classic Era. (They're
|
|
already supported in Burning Crusade Classic.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the handful of armor penetration items that will
|
|
appear in later phases of Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Worked around a bug in the Russian and Latin American Spanish versions
|
|
of Burning Crusade Classic that would cause Pawn to show errors if you had
|
|
items with a healing enchantment or random property.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Included several gem cuts that were missing from suggestions, including
|
|
Runed and Teardrop—sorry, casters!</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where many of the gems suggested on Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic were being suggested based on stats and colors that they had at
|
|
different points in the game's history (Wrath or Cataclysm). You should see
|
|
more sensible suggestions in the socketing advisor, and the values of
|
|
socketed items may slightly increase.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for "of Healing" and "of the Prophet" items on Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic. (Thanks to neaves for tracking down the items and a
|
|
suggested fix!)<ul>
|
|
<li>On Latin American Spanish and Russian, "of Healing" items currently
|
|
don't show the spell damage granted. Once that bug is fixed, Pawn will
|
|
need an additional change to handle those items properly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed an error that would occur on Burning Crusade Classic when looking
|
|
at an item that has sockets but no meta socket. (Thanks to ahakola for a
|
|
suggestion and the many people who reported this.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a minor issue with how some item IDs were displayed (a missing
|
|
colon).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Meta gems are now supported. You can manually assign a weight per scale
|
|
to the special meta gem effects such as
|
|
"Minor Run Speed Increase" or "1% Spell Reflect"; the stat portion of a meta
|
|
gem will be calculated for you. (A good starting point is 36× the value of
|
|
your primary stat.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn wouldn't work at all on Italian Shadowlands.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where feral attack power wasn't working on English
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>On Burning Crusade Classic, when determining a socketed item's value,
|
|
Pawn will now decide whether the item's value would be maximized by
|
|
following the socket bonus, or ignoring the bonus and using all of the same
|
|
type of gem.<ul>
|
|
<li>The socket bonus will also be taken into account for the advice
|
|
given in the socketing advisor popup.</li>
|
|
<li>The socket bonus will also be shown on Pawn's Compare tab whenever
|
|
the item's value would be maximized by following the socket bonus.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem with wands that deal holy damage on all Russian versions
|
|
of WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem with some items that grant mana-per-5 on Russian Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn now includes colored sockets in the value of an item like it does
|
|
for prismatic sockets. Colored sockets are assigned a value automatically
|
|
based on the best gems that fit that socket's color of an appropriate
|
|
quality level for the item. Like prismatic sockets, there's no way to
|
|
manually override the value of a colored socket or to fine-tune the quality
|
|
level of the gem used in the calculation.</li>
|
|
<li>Colored and meta sockets are now shown on Pawn's Compare tab.</li>
|
|
<li>The socketing advisor will now appear for socketed items in Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more items with spell hit rating on Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added the Gems tab in Burning Crusade Classic.<ul>
|
|
<li>Gems with Haste are not currently visible, since they won't appear
|
|
until Black Temple opens.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The value of stamina in the Classic and Burning Crusade Classic default
|
|
scales for DPS specs was too high and has been reduced to a more reasonable
|
|
level.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for some additional caster enchantments on English Classic
|
|
and Burning Crusade Classic. (This was accidentally listed in the notes for
|
|
2.5.6 in some places, but it's not fixed until 2.5.7.)</li>
|
|
<li>Simplified the look of some item IDs when the Show Item IDs option is
|
|
enabled.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a few problems with items that give bonuses to a single type of
|
|
magic damage in European Spanish Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for items with feral attack power on Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more items with defense rating on Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more items with hit rating on Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more items with spell hit rating on Simplified Chinese
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed problems with weapon damage in Traditional Chinese Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem with Outland items with melee and ranged crit rating on
|
|
European Spanish Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem with items with school-specific spell damage on European
|
|
Spanish Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed the calculation of DPS of wands on Portuguese and Korean Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for more Outland items with spell crit rating on Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for more Outland items with the same amount of spell
|
|
damage and healing on Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn missed crit rating on some Outland items in
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn couldn't determine the DPS of wands in French
|
|
Burning Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed many problems where Pawn missed stats in European Spanish Burning
|
|
Crusade Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for various items with hit rating and attack power that
|
|
weren't being handled properly before.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where items with different values of spell damage and
|
|
healing on the same line of the tooltip were getting the two stats reversed,
|
|
even though I literally <em>triple-checked</em> that before releasing Pawn
|
|
2.5.</li>
|
|
<li>Minor updates to the German translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.5</h3>
|
|
<p>Introducing: Pawn for the Burning Crusade
|
|
Classic pre-patch.</p>
|
|
<p><strong>Important:</strong> If you imported custom scales on Classic and are continuing
|
|
to Burning Crusade Classic, you'll need to update your
|
|
weights for all of the percentage-based stats when you get the pre-patch. If, for example, your value for
|
|
Crit is 10, an item that gives 1% crit would be worth 10 points on Classic, but
|
|
would be worth 80 in Burning Crusade Classic and the pre-patch, because that
|
|
item will change to have 8 crit <em>rating</em>. Pawn won't make any automatic
|
|
changes to your custom scales. But, if you're using the default stat weights
|
|
that come with Pawn, you don't need to do anything.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for all Burning Crusade Classic languages:
|
|
English, French, German, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Latin American Spanish,
|
|
European Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.<ul>
|
|
<li>Known issue: The Spanish PTR currently has a bug where items are
|
|
showing spell hit and spell crit as percentages instead of ratings. Pawn
|
|
currently processes these items correctly, but once the bug is fixed,
|
|
Pawn will need an additional adjustment to work again.</li>
|
|
<li>Known issue: The Russian PTR has the same problem with spell hit.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for new stats: Expertise Rating, Resilience Rating, Haste
|
|
Rating, Spell Haste Rating, and Spell Penetration.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for new combat ratings present on Classic gear: Hit
|
|
Rating, Spell Hit Rating, Crit Rating, Spell Crit Rating, Dodge Rating,
|
|
Parry Rating, Block Rating, and Defense Rating.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for items that give different amounts of spell damage and
|
|
healing on the same line (Amulet of Flowing Life, etc.).</li>
|
|
<li>The default stat weights on Burning Crusade Classic have been updated to
|
|
accommodate the combat ratings change.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.18</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Russian WoW Classic: You should no longer see a warning about addon
|
|
incompatibility when logging in.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.17</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added ArkInventory integration, contributed by a Pawn fan named Matthew.
|
|
(Well, I don't know if he <i>said</i> he's a fan. I'm assuming here.)<ul>
|
|
<li>When you have ArkInventory and ArkInventoryRules enabled, you can use the <code>pawnupgrade()</code> rule in
|
|
ArkInventory to run a Pawn comparison on items in your inventory for sorting. This will return true if the item is
|
|
an upgrade and false if it is indeterminate or not an upgrade. To determine if something is not an upgrade, use
|
|
<code>pawnnotupgrade()</code>. This rule will return true if the item is definitely not an upgrade, and false if it is
|
|
indeterminate or an upgrade. This can be used for auto-sell rules, such as <code>bind(3) and pawnnotupgrade()</code>.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.16</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Pawn will now suggest the +16 stat jewel clusters instead
|
|
of +12 stat gems for items level 175 and higher.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.15</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Updated stat weights for Guardian Druid based on a new
|
|
simulation from Ask Mr. Robot.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Spanish, Shadowlands only: Fixed a problem where off-hand frill items
|
|
were being misidentified as off-hand weapons, so they didn't show upgrades
|
|
or values for casters. (This problem didn't apply to Classic or to other
|
|
languages.)</li>
|
|
<li>Spanish, Spain only, Classic only: Fixed a problem where an error
|
|
message appeared when logging in.</li>
|
|
<li>Spanish: Fixed detection of Avoidance and Block Value on some items in
|
|
certain situations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: I've included a new set of stat weights from Ask Mr. Robot
|
|
yet again—the most notable changes will be for healers, who will see the
|
|
value of mastery increased significantly.</li>
|
|
<li>Improved a few bits of the Italian translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Pawn 2.4.11 included the wrong set of stat weights; this
|
|
version includes the stat weights that were <i>intended</i> to come with
|
|
2.4.11. Apologies for the error!</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Pawn now includes new default stat weights for all classes
|
|
and specs from Ask Mr. Robot, optimized for typical characters in Mythic
|
|
Keystone dungeons. These should give you much better gearing advice than the
|
|
previous defaults, but remember that you'll always get the most accurate
|
|
advice for your character if you import stat weights from your favorite
|
|
simulator (like Ask Mr. Robot).</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn's "compare item left" and "compare item right" keybinds work
|
|
with world quest item rewards once again.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Worked around a bug in WoW that was causing Pawn to show incorrect
|
|
upgrade information for some Shadowlands quest rewards.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where clicking links in chat and then right-clicking the
|
|
window that appeared would open Pawn's Compare tab even if it was for
|
|
something that wasn't an item, such as an achievement.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added Pawn annotations for tooltips of item rewards in the Great Vault.
|
|
(I think. Thanks Crazy Carl!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn can now recover and continue working if another addon changes any
|
|
of the class colors and does so incorrectly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Changed the graphics in the Pawn UI to look more Maw-like.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: In German, mail armor is now properly detected again after
|
|
the Naxxramas patch.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer appear as "out of date" after updating to WoW 9.0.2.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: In Russian, shadow spell damage is now properly recognized
|
|
on items. (This problem didn't affect other schools of magic or other
|
|
languages.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn's bag icons should now cooperate with Can I Mog It?'s bag icons
|
|
again. Special thanks to the author of that addon, who inspired a much
|
|
simpler solution that what I had come up with.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn now has a more complete set of gem recommendations, including new
|
|
gems from the Shadowlands. For example, for resto shamans on an ilvl 100
|
|
item, Pawn will suggest five different +4 crit gems from different
|
|
expansions, so you can buy the one that's cheapest.<ul>
|
|
<li>This is just new recommendations, not a new feature—there still
|
|
isn't a way to further customize gem quality levels to your exact
|
|
tastes, but that's still on the to-do list.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn was a little overzealous in resetting data that might have been
|
|
affected by the level squish, so I've changed the way it works to be less
|
|
annoying for people who have a lot of alts.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Pawn's bag arrows integration will no longer work by default with
|
|
custom bag addons.</b><ul>
|
|
<li>The game no longer allows customizing that functionality while in
|
|
combat, so before this change, Pawn's bag arrow integration caused
|
|
errors while performing certain actions in combat, such as swapping
|
|
weapons from the character sheet. Disabling support for custom bag
|
|
addons is unfortunately the only way I can work around this.</li>
|
|
<li>To work around this, custom bag addons that call
|
|
IsContainerItemAnUpgrade directly can use
|
|
PawnIsContainerItemAnUpgrade when available instead, falling back to
|
|
IsContainerItemAnUpgrade if it's nil. Then Pawn will control the bag
|
|
arrows like it did before.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now show two-handed weapons as potential upgrades for
|
|
two-handed Frost Death Knights. If you're all about the dual-wielding life
|
|
and want to turn this back off, you can go to Pawn's Values tab, select
|
|
"Axe: 2H" (or any other 2H type) under "Weapon types", and then select
|
|
"Don't show upgrades for 2H items."</li>
|
|
<li>You should no longer see a warning message about addon compatibility
|
|
when playing on Russian WoW 9.0.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Hopefully fixed an error that occurred when turning in a
|
|
quest.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Welcome to WoW 9.0 and the level squish! Pawn had to wipe its memory of
|
|
everything it knew about your characters before the squish since none of
|
|
that information is correct anymore, so for a little while it might show you
|
|
upgrades that aren't actually upgrades until it learns about your sweet
|
|
epics. This shouldn't last long, and will automatically resolve itself as
|
|
you play.<ul>
|
|
<li>This version is meant for WoW 9.0 (Shadowlands pre-patch) and WoW
|
|
Classic only.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn should give reasonable gem recommendations and calculations in this
|
|
version, but I'll continue to refine them in the coming days to give more
|
|
helpful suggestions at lower levels.</li>
|
|
<li>Default stat weights have not been updated. Players participating in
|
|
high-level raiding may want to import custom weights from a simulator
|
|
instead of using the built-in guidance.</li>
|
|
<li>The Corruption stat has been removed, since it no longer has any effect
|
|
on your character and appears greyed out.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where if a quest gave you a useful item and a junk item
|
|
(such as a gray artifact power item from Legion), Pawn would sometimes fail
|
|
to show upgrade arrows on the non-junk item.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.36</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Added support for parry chance on items. (The UI has been
|
|
there all this time, but it didn't actually work. Oops!)</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed some problems with Benediction and some other items
|
|
with spell damage and healing that only occurred when playing in Simplified
|
|
Chinese.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.35</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Added support for dodge arcana and cloak enchantments.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.34</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Pawn will no longer incorrectly show axes as potential
|
|
upgrades for rogues.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Added support for Fel-Infused Leggings in Simplified
|
|
Chinese, which work differently from seemingly every other item in the game
|
|
with shadow spell damage because Blizzard hates me.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.33</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Added support for "of Sorcery" items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.32</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>I broke the Korean version in 2.3.31—it's fixed now.</li>
|
|
<li>One more small update to the German translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.31</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Adjusted the level at which characters get their armor
|
|
specialization ability.</li>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Pawn will now start showing upgrades to Legion artifact
|
|
weapons again.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the German translation, thanks to SunnySunflow.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.30</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>This release adds Shadowlands compatibility to Pawn.</b></li>
|
|
<li>Shadowlands: Pawn's UI will no longer be see-through.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a problem where Pawn would no longer show your score
|
|
totals when hovering over the Pawn button after equipping a relic-slot item.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a problem where shadow spell damage was no longer
|
|
being recognized in Simplified Chinese. (Other languages weren't affected.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.29</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>One-handed maces and daggers will no longer incorrectly appear as
|
|
potential upgrades for demon hunters, since they cannot equip them.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.28</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>I rearranged the Values tab, making the stat list wider, to make it
|
|
easier to use in languages where some stat names are very long like
|
|
"Puissance d'attaque en changeforme."</li>
|
|
<li>Various minor updates to the sizes of things in the UI to make Pawn more
|
|
pleasant to use in a variety of languages.</li>
|
|
<li>Lots more updates to the French translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.27</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Significant updates to the French translation, courtesy of CerealCH.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.26</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a rare error that could occur when looking at very unusual rings.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn is now compatible with a slightly wider array of item tooltip
|
|
comparison addons.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a problem where spell damage on some items in French
|
|
wasn't being recognized. (Other languages weren't affected.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.25</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where if scale values on tooltips were enabled, and you
|
|
had a trinket with no stats (such as Pocket-Sized Computation Device or most
|
|
trinkets in WoW Classic), Pawn wouldn't show the total score of all of the
|
|
items you're wearing when hovering over the Pawn button on the character
|
|
sheet.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Leech (Parasitar / Robo de vida) was not
|
|
recognized on items in either Spanish version of WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed multiple problems reading numbers when playing in
|
|
French introduced by the latest patch for WoW Classic. (Battle for
|
|
Azeroth isn't affected.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.24</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a problem where Pawn would cause an error when using
|
|
the "Track for each scale (advanced)" option because it would try to scan
|
|
your equipment sets, which don't exist on Classic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.23</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Battle for Azeroth: Pawn now works in the new(-ish) 8.3.0 auction house.<ul>
|
|
<li>Important: Items with random stats ("of the _____") will be
|
|
undervalued on the main auction house browsing page, and will be
|
|
unlikely to appear as upgrades. When you click the item name to
|
|
see all of the individual auctions for that item,<i> those</i> items
|
|
will get accurate rankings from Pawn. (This is because the game
|
|
groups multiple similar items with varying stats together on the initial
|
|
screen, but the items listed on the second screen have exact stats that
|
|
Pawn can evaluate.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.22</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a lot of additional problems with the European
|
|
Spanish version of WoW Classic. (Latin American Spanish and Battle for
|
|
Azeroth weren't affected.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.21</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a problem where Pawn couldn't read damage on weapons
|
|
in the European Spanish version of WoW Classic. (Latin American
|
|
Spanish and Battle for Azeroth weren't affected.)</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a problem where Pawn couldn't read damage on wands in
|
|
the Portuguese version of WoW Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Improved the Simplified Chinese translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.20</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed an issue where the new Classic stat weights included
|
|
with Pawn valued stats like crit chance as if they were the Burning
|
|
Crusade-style ratings, not percentages, so all of the percentage-based stats
|
|
were severely undervalued. (This has no effect on you if you're using
|
|
your own stat weights, or if you're playing Battle for Azeroth.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.19</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>I worked around a bug in BankItems and other addons that use the old
|
|
auction house that was causing Pawn to fail
|
|
catastrophically.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now work with even more complicated corrupted items than
|
|
before ("didn't expect to find 11 bonus IDs").</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.18</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Pawn now includes a full set of starter scales for each
|
|
class and spec courtesy of
|
|
<a href="http://tbcwowaddons.weebly.com/pawn.html" target="_blank">HawsJon</a>.
|
|
These stat weights were originally designed for use on The Burning Crusade,
|
|
not Classic, but they're the best resource for Classic stat weights that
|
|
I've found so far.<ul>
|
|
<li>Druids have two scales for feral: DPS (cat) and tank (bear), since
|
|
your preferred role will dictate which stats are most valuable.</li>
|
|
<li>Rogue off-hand weapons use different weights than other rogue gear,
|
|
so there's a fourth scale for rogues that you should only use when
|
|
comparing items for your off-hand slot.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Removed an error message that appeared when playing in Spain.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.17</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn can now handle more complicated items than before. This fixes
|
|
a problem where you could get an error like "didn't expect to find 9 bonus
|
|
IDs" after looting a very complicated item.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.16</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated German translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.15</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW 8.3 PTR: Added support for the Corruption stat. If you assign
|
|
it a value, you probably want to assign it a <i>negative</i> value.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW 8.3 PTR: Fixed a problem where high-level weapons would cause errors
|
|
when playing in French.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Scale tags can now specify a class like on retail.
|
|
When you import a scale that specifies a class, Pawn will now automatically
|
|
mark all of the weapon and armor types that class can't equip as unusable
|
|
just like it does on retail. (Specs included in scale tags for Classic
|
|
will be ignored.)</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: For Korean players, wand damage should now be interpreted
|
|
correctly and no longer produce an error message.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixed a problem where the retail-only option to only use
|
|
your class's preferred armor type after level 50 was still showing up on
|
|
leather, mail, and plate armor.</li>
|
|
<li>Improved the "Items with this are unusable" text on the Weights tab in
|
|
English.</li>
|
|
<li>Made a small tweak to the Pawn UI's tabs to help people who use custom
|
|
fonts.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated the Pawn logo.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn dialogs that ask for scale names, and the delete scale confirmation
|
|
dialog, have been returned to the more compact appearance that they had in
|
|
version 2.3.10 and earlier.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW 8.3 PTR: Fixed a problem where Pawn would no longer load on the PTR.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Ranged weapons are now properly supported.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a special surprise.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When exporting Pawn scale tags, unusable stats will now appear simply as
|
|
"Stat=X" instead of "Stat=-1000000".</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: A basic starter scale for each class is now available.<ul>
|
|
<li>The starter scales include default values for all stats relevant to
|
|
the class, loosely based on the game's item level formula.
|
|
(They're very similar to the default stat weights that came with Pawn a
|
|
decade ago.)</li>
|
|
<li>There is just one starter scale per class, so for example, the druid
|
|
template has values for Strength, Agility, Intellect, <i>and</i> Spirit.</li>
|
|
<li>The appropriate starter scale will be automatically enabled when
|
|
starting Pawn for the first time (if you don't already have any scales)
|
|
so it does <i>something</i>.</li>
|
|
<li>I still <i>highly</i> recommend customizing the default values.</li>
|
|
<li>The "Template" button on the Scales tab is now available, and
|
|
creates a new scale based on your class's starter scale.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Pawn will now allow items that aren't your class's
|
|
preferred armor type to be considered as upgrades after level 50, since
|
|
non-cloth healers using cloth armor was commonplace and optimal in early
|
|
WoW. <i>[Vger wistfully remembers her Crimson Felt Hat from Strat...]</i><ul>
|
|
<li>The option that appears to enable this feature whenever you select
|
|
an armor type on the Weights tab has been removed.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: The Manual button on the Scales tab is now visible, even
|
|
though you can't switch to Automatic on Classic so the button is always
|
|
selected. (Other parts of the Pawn UI refer to "switching to Manual
|
|
mode" and I didn't want to have to change them all.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Now supports Korean and Traditional Chinese. With
|
|
that, Pawn now supports all WoW Classic languages!</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Fixes for frost spell damage in Simplified Chinese.</li>
|
|
<li>The Import and Export windows for scale tags are now larger and can be
|
|
closed with the Esc key.</li>
|
|
<li>If you experience a problem with Pawn incorrectly finding the stats for
|
|
an item, you can put that item into the Compare tab and then Alt+click it to
|
|
see a full list of the item's stats and a command that can be used to see
|
|
the same item on a different computer. (You probably won't have a
|
|
reason to use this unless I ask you to.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Additional updates to the Simplified Chinese translation.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Now supports Russian, thanks to drcrazy777.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Additional updates to the Simplified Chinese translation from wolfcon.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Now supports Portuguese.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Now supports Simplified Chinese, thanks to wolfcon.</li>
|
|
<li>Some updates to the Russian translation, courtesy of drcrazy777.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Now supports Spanish and German.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: the Compare tab will now refresh itself after a moment to
|
|
make sure it has the latest stats from your items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>/pawn compare can now compare two items at once: /pawn compare left
|
|
12345 right 67890</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug introduced in Pawn 2.3.0 that made it impossible to import a
|
|
scale with a class and spec specified the first time you tried.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed problems with baguette damage in French WoW.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Now supports French in addition to English.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem introduced in WoW 8.2.5 where Pawn wouldn't recognize
|
|
numbers 1,000 or larger in the Russian version of WoW—not the same one as
|
|
for French and Spanish!</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added a new Pawn slash command: /pawn compare. You can use this as
|
|
an alternate way to put items into Pawn's Compare UI. For example,
|
|
"/pawn compare left 16795" puts Arcanist's Crown into the left slot of
|
|
Pawn's Compare tab.<ul>
|
|
<li>The compare command accepts item IDs, "item:12345:0:0" strings, or
|
|
full shift+clicked item links ("/pawn compare [Arcanist's Crown]").</li>
|
|
<li>If your PC hasn't downloaded the stats for an item yet, the command
|
|
might not do anything the first time. Try it again (Enter,
|
|
Shift+Up, Enter) after a second and it should work the second time.</li>
|
|
<li>Addon authors can use "PawnUI_SetCompareItemAndShow(1, 16795)" to
|
|
accomplish the same thing. (1 for left, 2 for right.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where armor was being ignored in French WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Worked around a problem where Pawn would sometimes not see
|
|
all of the stats on an item (typically, the "green stats").<ul>
|
|
<li>This workaround will result in slightly lower performance on WoW
|
|
Classic. I'm still investigating a better long-term solution.</li>
|
|
<li>For the curious, it's because the game client would get a partial
|
|
list of stats for the item, then Pawn would do its calculations on that,
|
|
and then shortly afterward the game would get the rest of the stats for
|
|
the item, but at that point Pawn didn't know that it needed to re-scan
|
|
the item, so it was evaluating the item based on just the first batch of
|
|
stats it got.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Removed "All Resistances", which does not appear to exist
|
|
on any items in Classic.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Added support for "of Concentration" items.</li>
|
|
<li>Russian and Chinese: For consistency, Pawn's "debug" and "backup" slash
|
|
commands are now always in English like they are for all other languages.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem introduced in WoW 8.2.5 where Pawn wouldn't recognize
|
|
numbers 1,000 or larger in the French and European Spanish versions of WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>I introduced a system that will make Pawn a little easier to translate
|
|
in the future, and make it more resilient to changes in the way that
|
|
non-English versions of WoW display numbers.</li>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Added support for ranged weapon DPS, "of Defense" items,
|
|
and probably more stuff I forgot about.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>WoW Classic: Added support for "of Eluding" items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.3</h3>
|
|
<p>Consider this version a full release for Battle for Azeroth and a beta for
|
|
WoW Classic. WoW Classic is supported for English only in this version.
|
|
Pawn does not include any built-in scales for WoW Classic, so you'll need to
|
|
create your own scales from scratch, or import them. Not all Pawn features
|
|
exist on WoW Classic, and some features are incomplete.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>There are no new features for Battle for Azeroth in this version.
|
|
If you run into any issues on the live/retail realms, you can return to
|
|
2.2.x and shouldn't miss out on anything.</li>
|
|
<li>The "show item level upgrades" feature will default to OFF in Classic.
|
|
(But, if you've already used one of the earlier versions of Pawn on Classic,
|
|
that option may already be on, so turn it off manually if you don't want it.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.46</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If you've used an addon to hide item levels from your items, but still
|
|
have Pawn's "show item level upgrades" option turned on (that's the
|
|
default), Pawn will now show the item level increase at the bottom of the
|
|
tooltip instead. </li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn could forget your best items after logging
|
|
out, if using the "track for each scale (advanced)" feature.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.45</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Includes updated stat weights from Ask Mr. Robot for all classes and
|
|
specs.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.44</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now show equippable items that are a higher item level than
|
|
what you currently have as upgrades too, even if they aren't stat upgrades.
|
|
(You can turn this new behavior off on Pawn's Options tab.)<ul>
|
|
<li>This feature currently doesn't take Unique-Equipped rings into
|
|
account. If you happen to equip two different item level copies of
|
|
the same ring, Pawn could consider both of them your best two rings and
|
|
thus "forget" about your previous second-best ring.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Some minor performance improvements when logging in.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where characters with artifacts equipped could get
|
|
upgrade recommendations for types of items they can't equip, such as wands
|
|
for death knights.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a harmless error that appeared when logging in on a Russian
|
|
client.</li>
|
|
<li>Lots of updated German translations, courtesy of SunnySunflow.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.43</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Removed a harmless error that would occur when shift-right-clicking
|
|
Pocket-Sized Computation Device.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.42</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for the new 60-stat epic gems from Nazjatar.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.41</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Some minor changes to try to work around a problem where Pawn tries to
|
|
compare a new item versus an old item but it doesn't know the stats of the
|
|
old item, and it causes an error.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.40</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Removed some old code that isn't necessary anymore in 8.1.5.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.39</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an additional problem with an "ItemButtonTemplate" error that
|
|
would appear if you have the "/console scriptErrors 1" setting on.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn would show an unnecessary error message to
|
|
French players. You know, the one I said I fixed in 2.2.37.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.38</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed some problems with the Compare tab's visuals introduced by patch
|
|
8.1.5.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.37</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where Pawn would show an unnecessary error message to
|
|
French players.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.36</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>New stat weights from Mr. Robot for all classes and specs!</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.35</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Increased the item level threshold at which Pawn will start suggesting
|
|
BfA rare-quality gems.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a warning Pawn detects that you're using an addon like Combat
|
|
Numbers Separator that might cause it to give bad advice. (Let me know
|
|
if you see this with only Pawn active!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.34</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixes to prevent errors involving "WorldMapTooltip" from occurring on
|
|
WoW 8.1.5.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.33</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Better compatibility with DejaCharacterStats.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.32</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A debug-only option that I added long ago will now automatically turn
|
|
itself off if you turned it on and then forgot about it. ("Not caching
|
|
because the item didn't have any stats" and other similar messages.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.31</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem that occurred on the Spanish (EU) version of WoW (not
|
|
the Mexico version or other languages) where items with 1,000 or more of a
|
|
stat were being evaluated incorrectly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.30</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Includes new, updated stat weights for all classes and specs from Ask Mr. Robot's
|
|
simulations to give you better, more accurate advice in raids.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.29</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixes for Brazilian Portuguese.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.28</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer suggest weapon upgrades for mistweaver monks as if
|
|
they could dual-wield.</li>
|
|
<li>Adjusted gem recommendations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.27</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn's relic upgrade features are now disabled by default, and I plan to
|
|
remove them entirely in a future version.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.26</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Items with sockets will now be valued somewhat higher than before, to
|
|
account for the new gems in Battle for Azeroth jewelcrafting.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where sometimes you'd get an error when looking at items
|
|
that your PC hadn't downloaded the stats for yet.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.25</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed some more issues with artifact weapon level comparisons (notably,
|
|
comparing versus the surprisingly crappy weapons you get during the Battle
|
|
for Lordaeron questline).</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the average item level display on the Inspect window when hovering
|
|
over the Pawn button.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.24</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When comparing an artifact weapon with a non-artifact weapon, Pawn now
|
|
just shows upgrade arrows based on the item's level. Artifact weapons are
|
|
complicated, and this seemed like the most helpful and least confusing way
|
|
to provide guidance.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.23</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where Pawn could skip one of your equipment sets when
|
|
looking for your best-in-slot gear when the "upgrade comparisons: track for
|
|
each scale" option was enabled.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated artwork.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.22</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer tell you that it's probably not worth your time
|
|
putting gems in anything below ilvl 800. (I changed the threshold to
|
|
153, and I'll change it again when BfA launches.)</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now show upgrades for your artifact weapons (and off-hands) on
|
|
all level 110+ characters.</li>
|
|
<li>More gem updates in preparation for the Battle for Azeroth jewelcrafting
|
|
recipes.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.21</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>New default stat weights for the Battle for Azeroth pre-patch 8.0 for
|
|
all classes and specs!</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed some problems that occurred when the "Upgrade comparisons: Track
|
|
for each scale" option was selected.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.20</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>More gem updates for the Battle for Azeroth item level squish.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.19</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated for WoW 8.0 and the Battle for Azeroth item level squish.
|
|
Due to item level changes, gem recommendations may be a little strange at
|
|
lower levels; let me know if you see something that seems very wrong, and
|
|
let me know which item and gem and the item levels of each.</li>
|
|
<li>Stat weights have not been updated since WoW 7.x. They're still
|
|
the latest from Ask Mr. Robot; most likely it will take a couple of months
|
|
to account for all of the expansion changes and produce reliable new stat
|
|
weights.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.18</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an occasional
|
|
incompatibility with TradeSkillMaster where upgrade arrows would appear in
|
|
bags too often. (Special thanks to Curse user Katmandu29a.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.17</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where relic upgrade info wasn't visible on tooltips anymore
|
|
when the "align values to right edge of tooltip" option was enabled. </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h4>Version 2.2.17a</h4>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem with the German translation of relic upgrade
|
|
notifications.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|

<h3>Version 2.2.16</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated the default Ask Mr. Robot scales for all classes and specs.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.15</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added a fix to make Pawn compatible with the German version of WoW 7.3.2
|
|
courtesy of Salty from Curse.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now suggest blue-quality gems on heroic Tomb of Sargeras gear
|
|
or better, and the epic-quality gems on heroic Antorus gear.</li>
|
|
<li>Translation updates for German courtesy of Salty from Curse.</li>
|
|
<li>(Version 2.2.14a) Translation updates for French courtesy of
|
|
Kangourousse from Curse.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>More language updates for WoW patch 7.3. (If I do four of these
|
|
updates I get a special cache full of epics.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem introduced by WoW patch 7.3 that caused Pawn to not work
|
|
properly in the Spanish (Spain) version of WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>More updates for WoW patch 7.3.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updates for compatibility with WoW patch 7.3.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added a compatibility fix for AethysRotation and other addons that scan
|
|
your artifacts while you're logging in.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Stat weights for all classes and specs have been updated based on hotfixes,
|
|
balance changes, and new simulations.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now suggest blue-quality gems only on items that are higher
|
|
than level 900.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added new guidance and stat weights for all classes and specs to account
|
|
for changes in WoW patch 7.2.5. The new weights are optimized for
|
|
Mythic Keystone dungeons a higher gear level (870) than in previous versions
|
|
of Pawn, given how quickly one can gear up alts currently.<ul>
|
|
<li>In addition, the new weights for Assassination Rogues now assume
|
|
that you use Master Poisoner.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem in Korean WoW that was introduced in 2.2.7.</li>
|
|
<li>Additional changes to French support to improve performance for players
|
|
in all languages.</li>
|
|
<li>Lots of translation updates for Portuguese courtesy of Pawn fan tiagopl. (No updates for other
|
|
languages in this update.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn is now compatible with the French version of WoW patch 7.2.5.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now wait to start suggesting relics for the third slot of your
|
|
artifact until you've actually unlocked it. (I thought it would be
|
|
helpful for collecting a relic before you finish the questline, but it's
|
|
proven to be annoying and misleading in practice.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Made a change to try to improve integration with Bagnon.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug in Pawn where for some low-level characters, Pawn wouldn't
|
|
recognize that one of your artifact's relic slots was locked, and would
|
|
suggest relics for that slot.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>English: Fixed a problem where the Survival Hunter artifact Talonclaw
|
|
didn't ever show relic upgrades. (It's possible that this problem
|
|
exists for other artifacts—it would occur any time that the artifact had a
|
|
different name on the item tooltip versus the shift-right-click artifact
|
|
pane.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Worked around a game bug where WoW was saying that BoE relics looted at
|
|
level 110 and then passed to lower-level characters would get fewer ilvls
|
|
from that relic than they actually would.</li>
|
|
<li>Some other addons simulate shift-right-clicking on your artifact at
|
|
logon to get information about it. This caused Pawn to sometimes
|
|
receive incorrect information about your artifact, which would cause it to
|
|
overestimate how much of an item level upgrade a relic would be. Pawn
|
|
will now detect when this is happening and ignore the bad information it
|
|
received.</li>
|
|
<li>Russian: Includes translations for new relic features.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug in Pawn 2.2 where items in a player's bags that required a
|
|
higher player level and couldn't be equipped were still getting green
|
|
arrows.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer work with WoW 7.1.5.</li>
|
|
<li>English: Relics that give a single level increase will now say "+1 level" instead
|
|
of "+1 levels".</li>
|
|
<li>Russian: Hopefully fixed some of the catastrophic problems that started
|
|
occurring with patch 7.2.</li>
|
|
<li>Italian: Includes translations for new relic features.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Includes fixes for compatibility with WoW patch 7.2.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now highlight relics that are an item
|
|
level upgrade to one or more of your artifacts. Note that this upgrade
|
|
feature is completely separate from Pawn's existing upgrade features—it's
|
|
based on item level increase, not stats, and your custom scales are not used
|
|
in any way.<ul>
|
|
<li>This feature won't work until after you shift-right-click your
|
|
artifacts. You only have to do that once (for each artifact) after
|
|
upgrading to Pawn 2.2.</li>
|
|
<li>This feature will work for all of your artifacts regardless of which
|
|
spec you're in.</li>
|
|
<li>Top-tier players who want to min/max specific artifact traits rather
|
|
than focusing purely on their artifact's item level may want to turn
|
|
this feature off—see Pawn's Options tab to do so.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now suggest the cheap 100-stat gems on more items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.18</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where balance druids could see weapons appear as upgrades to
|
|
their off-hand frill items, as if they could dual-wield.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.17</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li class="auto-style1">Updated the Ask Mr. Robot default scales for most
|
|
specs. (The ones that didn't change already had the latest stat
|
|
weights.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.16</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When copying built-in scales, the spec icon (as well as other internal
|
|
details) will now be copied as well.</li>
|
|
<li>The Compare tab will now refresh itself whenever it's shown, so changing
|
|
scale values or an option that affects calculations like "ignore sockets on
|
|
low-level items" will have an immediate effect.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a minor bug where one of the details of each scale was being saved
|
|
incorrectly. (Neither the bug nor the fix should have an immediate
|
|
impact as the feature to use that detail isn't available in Pawn yet.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.15</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated default stat weights from Ask Mr. Robot for The Nighthold and the latest hotfixes.</li>
|
|
<li>When the Pawn button is set to the left side, it will now appear in its
|
|
usual location on the <i>right</i> side of the item socketing window.
|
|
(It was originally intended to not be visible at all if the left setting was
|
|
used, but that hasn't displayed properly in ages and no one complained, so I
|
|
guess it probably doesn't cause any problems there.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug introduced in 2.1.13 where the list of scales in the Pawn UI wouldn't show or
|
|
hide immediately upon switching between Automatic and Manual mode.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Scales that are imported with both Class and Spec included will use
|
|
spec icons and class colors by default, just like the built-in Automatic
|
|
scales. (Pawn will automatically include them when exporting any
|
|
of the built-in scales.)<ul>
|
|
<li>Scales you've already imported in previous versions need to be
|
|
re-imported for this to work.</li>
|
|
<li>There's currently no way to change a scale's class, spec, or
|
|
icon in the Pawn UI other than through the export and import
|
|
features.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn scale tags can now specify a spec using its English name instead of
|
|
just a number. For
|
|
example: ( Pawn: v1: "Hunter: Beast Mastery": Class=Hunter,
|
|
Spec=BeastMastery, Agility=10 )<ul>
|
|
<li>Scales exported in this version can't be imported into earlier
|
|
versions of Pawn, so for the next few weeks while people may not have
|
|
updated, if you share scales with others, you may need to remind them to
|
|
upgrade. (Or, change Spec= to its old number form: 1 is the first
|
|
spec listed in the game's Specialization window, 2 is the second, and 3
|
|
is the third.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>When using the "show item IDs" option, Pawn will once again show item
|
|
IDs for items that can't be equipped (food, relics, crafting reagents, and
|
|
so on).</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the color picker would disappear too soon when
|
|
choosing a scale color.<ul>
|
|
<li>There's still a bug where the initial color that appears when
|
|
choosing a new color is incorrect, but that's a problem with the game
|
|
itself. (For example, you can see the same issue with the chat
|
|
window color options.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Worked around a problem where the item level display that appears when
|
|
hovering over the Pawn button while inspecting another player would
|
|
undervalue off-hand artifacts (including weapons, shields, and frill).
|
|
(The game shows the item level of off-hand artifacts as 750 regardless of
|
|
their actual level, so Pawn works around the bug by assuming that the
|
|
off-hand artifact is always the same level as the main-hand artifact.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>New updates to the default Ask Mr. Robot scales for patch 7.1.5.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added some new unverified changes that will hopefully eliminate the problem a few
|
|
people are seeing where items are missing stats and causing other items to
|
|
show up as upgrades when they aren't.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the Template button on the Scale tab didn't work.</li>
|
|
<li>Made some minor changes that should slightly improve performance with
|
|
certain items that can never have stats, like artifact relics and tabards.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated all of the default Ask Mr. Robot scales with new stat weights.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Additional minor changes to help debug a problem some people are having
|
|
with items missing stats.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Performance enhancements based on suggestions from rowaasr13 of Garrison
|
|
Mission Manager.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn's Bag Upgrade Advisor will no longer show green arrows on items in
|
|
your bags that aren't equippable yet because you don't meet the level
|
|
requirement. (You'll still see them if you hover over the item.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the comparison tooltips that appear when holding Shift
|
|
over the point-of-interest icon for a world quest that rewards an equippable
|
|
item.</li>
|
|
<li>The "compare item left" and "compare item right" keybinds now work on
|
|
world quest rewards.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated stat weights from Ask Mr. Robot for changes in patch 7.1 and
|
|
recent hotfixes.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a mistake I introduced in version 2.1.6 that caused characters to
|
|
become undying servants of the Lich King if they use Automatic mode (the
|
|
default), which caused Pawn to not show anything on tooltips, and make it
|
|
appear as if Pawn thought that your spec was Blood in the Pawn window.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Improved performance in raid groups when in Automatic mode (the
|
|
default).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Increased Pawn's memory usage in exchange for faster item scans.
|
|
(Memory usage should still only be a couple MB, but finding bag upgrades
|
|
should be much faster.)</li>
|
|
<li>Minor translation updates.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where occasionally Pawn would complain about finding too
|
|
many "bonus IDs" on items.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the "ignore valor and baleful upgrades" feature, since those
|
|
items are not relevant anymore.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The Compare tab will no longer show the differential between the sockets
|
|
and socket value on the left item versus the right item. (For example,
|
|
if one item has no socket, and the other has a socket worth 1,250 points, it
|
|
will no longer show "+1,250".) After this change, the green and red
|
|
numbers shown will always only be stats, which should make them easier for
|
|
new people to understand.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where it was no longer possible to export some scales
|
|
(generally, scales that were created using the "empty" button or importing,
|
|
rather than copying an existing scale or starting from a template).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now take over the new WoW 7.1 feature that puts green arrows
|
|
on items in your bags. Normally the feature shows you items that are a
|
|
higher item level than what you have equipped. Pawn will change the
|
|
feature so that it shows items that are an upgrade to your
|
|
currently-equipped gear for any of your active scales. (For example,
|
|
if you're in the default Automatic mode, it'll put upgrade arrows next to
|
|
items that are better for your current spec, but not for other specs.)<ul>
|
|
<li>This feature has no effect on the WoW 7.0 live realms.</li>
|
|
<li>If you don't like this, and would rather go back to the old
|
|
behavior, uncheck "Show bag upgrade advisor" on Pawn's Options tab.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn's default stat weights now come from Ask Mr. Robot! The
|
|
existing Wowhead placeholder scales have been removed, and the Ask Mr. Robot
|
|
scales work automatically in the same was as the previous placeholders, but
|
|
now have more appropriate and helpful advice for each specialization.<ul>
|
|
<li>If you'd like advice for more than one spec at once, switch to
|
|
Manual mode on the Scales tab, and then you can show and hide additional
|
|
scales from there.</li>
|
|
<li>You may notice that items in your bags or bank that weren't upgrades
|
|
before version 2.1 are now showing up as upgrades—that's to be expected,
|
|
as some of the new stat weights in this version are vastly different
|
|
than before.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>In the English version, the Values tab has been renamed to Weights, to
|
|
better match the generally accepted terminology.</li>
|
|
<li>The item level display on the Compare tab will no longer show the
|
|
difference between the two levels ("+15" etc.). I'm hoping that this
|
|
makes it clearer that the item level isn't used in calculations.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer add orange diamonds to special effects that it
|
|
doesn't understand on items. I felt that in modern versions of Pawn,
|
|
those were just clutter, and didn't really provide useful information.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The previous version of Pawn fixed Latin American Spanish while breaking
|
|
European Spanish. This version should hopefully work for both.
|
|
(There's a new difference in the way that numbers are displayed between the
|
|
two versions of WoW that I wasn't aware of previously. Sorry!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Hopefully fixed a problem when Pawn is used in Spanish where stats 1,000
|
|
and up would be massively undervalued.</li>
|
|
<li>When choosing between relics as quest rewards, Pawn's Quest Upgrade
|
|
Advisor will now show the same (?) icon that it does for trinkets, instead
|
|
of showing you which one to choose to vendor.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn's Quest Upgrade Advisor will now also help you identify upgrades
|
|
rewarded by world quests.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated the values of Broken Isles gems again after the recent hotfix.
|
|
<i>FFS, Blizzard.</i></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The "ignore gems while leveling" feature will now ignore sockets on
|
|
items below ilvl 800.</li>
|
|
<li>Made a small tweak to work around a problem that was reported where an
|
|
error occurred when trying to sell a battle pet.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated the values of Broken Isles gems. Pawn will no longer
|
|
vastly overvalue sockets on Broken Isles gear.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixes to the French translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem that could occur on some new items where Pawn would
|
|
display an error message about not expecting an item with 5 bonus IDs.</li>
|
|
<li>Minor update to the Simplified Chinese translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where one-handed weapons could show up as huge upgrades
|
|
for characters who can't dual-wield. (They were being compared against
|
|
the character's off-hand frill item or shield.)</li>
|
|
<li>Updated Korean translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now show "your best" and "your second best" on tooltips of
|
|
equipped rings and dual-wielded weapons when using the default settings.</li>
|
|
<li>When the item on the left side of the Compare tab is better, its upgrade
|
|
arrow will now be green like all other upgrade arrows in Pawn.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>By popular demand, the Ignore Valor and Baleful Upgrades option has
|
|
returned. It's on by default, but you can turn it off to better
|
|
compare new gear.<ul>
|
|
<li>I'll wait to remove this option until Legion actually launches.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>A few more translation updates for Russian.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Made a hopefully-better fix for the problems on the Russian version of
|
|
WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated translation for Russian.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where one-handed weapons would appear to be upgrades for
|
|
dual-wielding characters far too often.</li>
|
|
<li>Hopefully fixed a problem where numbers 1,000 and up were being
|
|
calculated incorrectly in the Russian version of WoW.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated translations for Italian, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish,
|
|
Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Adjusted the value of gems to account for a difference in the values of
|
|
Draenor gems on the live version of the patch versus what they had on beta.</li>
|
|
<li>Increased the item level threshold at which Pawn will start suggesting
|
|
that you use Legion gems so that you shouldn't see that happen on your
|
|
Mythic Hellfire Citadel gear. <i>(Looks at own gear and weeps softly)</i></li>
|
|
<li>Updated translations for Spanish and Italian.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 2.0</h3>
|
|
<p>Pawn 2.0 only works on World of Warcraft 7.0, the Legion prepatch.</p>
|
|
<h4>New features and big changes</h4>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>By default, Pawn will now automatically make suggestions based on your
|
|
current spec and nothing else, and it will automatically switch its
|
|
suggestions whenever you change specs. If you prefer to show multiple
|
|
specs on your tooltips and customize them, just go to the Scale tab and
|
|
switch to Manual.</li>
|
|
<li>To keep things simple, when deciding whether a new item is an upgrade,
|
|
Pawn will now just compare it against what you currently have equipped.
|
|
This should be more straightforward now that gear works for all specs, and
|
|
better mimics the way that other RPGs with similar features (like Diablo)
|
|
work. You can return to the previous Pawn behavior if you prefer by
|
|
switching to Manual mode on the Scale tab, and then checking "track for each
|
|
scale" on the Options tab.</li>
|
|
<li>All of the built-in scales have been rebuilt from scratch. For
|
|
now, the stat values are simplified and are not coming from Wowhead, but I
|
|
expect to resume getting expert advice from them in the coming weeks.<ul>
|
|
<li>Please report any bugs you find with incorrect item types marked as
|
|
not being usable, and so on!</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h4>Other less exciting stuff</h4>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>This version now supports all of the languages that Pawn 1.9
|
|
supported—special thanks to the Pawn translation volunteers!<ul>
|
|
<li>Not all
|
|
translations are complete yet, but if you do notice something completely
|
|
broken, please let me know what, and which language.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The Pawn UI visuals have now been slightly tainted by the Fel.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now show spec icons on your tooltips (only for default
|
|
scales), which should make them easier to find and tell apart. You can
|
|
turn this off on the Options tab.</li>
|
|
<li>Built-in scales that are designed for only your current class will no
|
|
longer show the class name on item tooltips. For example, "Havoc: +14%
|
|
upgrade" instead of "Demon Hunter: Havoc: +14% upgrade".</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn's gem database has been fully updated to account for the stat
|
|
changes in patch 7.0.</li>
|
|
<li>To keep the suggestions manageable, Pawn will no longer consider
|
|
multi-stat (green, orange, or purple) gems on low-level items.</li>
|
|
<li>The Gems tab has been simplified, and will no longer show each gem three
|
|
times (under red, yellow, and blue gems).</li>
|
|
<li>The "Defaults" button on the Scale tab has been removed. A new
|
|
"Template" button has been added, which creates a more useful scale to start
|
|
from for your current spec.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn's Socketing Advisor now gives a full list of gems when you have
|
|
Automatic mode enabled (which is the default).</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn's features for assuming that you'll use Valor and Baleful tokens to
|
|
upgrade your items have been removed.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed support for Bonus Armor, Spirit, Multistrike, Spell Power, and
|
|
colored sockets, as those stats have been removed from the game.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed support for meta sockets, PvP Resilience, and PvP Power, as
|
|
those stats are not relevant on any current gear (though they do still exist
|
|
in-game, such as on the Dreadful Gladiator sets).</li>
|
|
<li>Dodge and Parry on low-level items and tank heirlooms will now be
|
|
interpreted as if it were Stamina.</li>
|
|
<li>Attack Power on low-level items will now be interpreted as if it were
|
|
Strength or Agility, whichever your scale values most.</li>
|
|
<li>I expect that for most players, Pawn's memory usage will decline
|
|
significantly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h4>Bug fixes and minor tweaks for 7.0</h4>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>I improved the "getting started" text that probably nobody reads.
|
|
Now it'll take even less time for people to not read it.</li>
|
|
<li>The Pawn UI now opens to the Compare tab by default (except the first
|
|
time you open it).</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a rare division by zero error that could occur when wearing
|
|
cosmetic armor with no stats.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.31</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Partial gem support has been restored on the Legion beta. The new
|
|
Legion gems will be used in all calculations regardless of the level of the
|
|
item. It'll probably stay this way until close to the Legion release
|
|
date.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.30</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Due to a problem with Pawn's gem calculations interacting poorly with
|
|
the quest turn-in window (yes, you read that right) on the Legion beta, gem
|
|
calculations on the Legion beta are temporarily disabled.<ul>
|
|
<li>This doesn't affect characters on the live servers.</li>
|
|
<li>This will cause items with sockets on the Legion beta to be valued
|
|
the same as the same item without sockets.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.29</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed the "Change color" button on the Scales tab on the Legion beta.
|
|
(Thanks Eduard from Curse! :)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.28</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for the new Legion gems. (But you can't see them on
|
|
the live realms.)</li>
|
|
<li>Warglaives will no longer show up as usable for any class except demon
|
|
hunter.</li>
|
|
<li>More minor tweaks to the basic starting scale for demon hunters.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.27</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A few quick tweaks to make Pawn work better on the Legion beta realms.<ul>
|
|
<li>There's plenty of stuff yet to do, like removing obsolete stats, and
|
|
adding support for artifact weapons—that will come soon.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Added a basic starting scale for demon hunters.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.26</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated Spanish and Simplified Chinese translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.25</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for a few Baleful items that weren't being recognized
|
|
previously. (If you're really curious, bonus ID 653.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.24</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Items in the Heirloom collection window will now get Pawn annotations on
|
|
their tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug introduced in 1.9.23 where, when hovering over the Pawn
|
|
button on your character sheet while the "show scale values and upgrade %"
|
|
option was chosen, the total values for all equipped items were not being
|
|
displayed properly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.23</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When Pawn shows you an upgrade percentage for an item that requires
|
|
Valor and/or an Empowered Apexis Fragment to achieve, it will now show up as
|
|
"+X% upgrade potential" instead of merely "+X% upgrade". Hopefully
|
|
this will make it a bit clearer how an ilvl 650 baleful item can be a
|
|
significant upgrade over an ilvl 670 raid item.<ul>
|
|
<li>This change will only affect English at first, until translations
|
|
are available.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.22</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>For Baleful items, Pawn will now use the Empowered version of the item
|
|
(the one that you get with an Empowered Apexis Fragment that's level 695
|
|
before valor upgrades) when calculating the base value of an item.</li>
|
|
<li>Added an option to make Pawn no longer assume that you'll use Valor and
|
|
Empowered Apexis Fragments to upgrade your gear when comparing different
|
|
items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.21</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>For items upgradeable with Valor, Pawn will now use the fully-upgraded
|
|
version of the item when calculating the base value of an item. (The
|
|
current value of the item, which is not shown on tooltips by default, will
|
|
still use the current upgrade level.) This means that when comparing
|
|
(for example) a level 630 item that isn't upgradeable to a level 650 item
|
|
that is, the upgrade % shown will be about 1.5x what it was previously.
|
|
Upgrade percentages between two upgradeable (or two non-upgradeable) items
|
|
will remain roughly the same as before.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where tooltips for craftable items did not get Pawn
|
|
annotations (values and upgrade %).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.20</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Works around a WoW bug where quest reward items were not getting Pawn
|
|
information on their tooltips most of the time. (Special thanks to
|
|
Phanx for helping to track down more patch 6.2 compatibility problems!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.19</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn now includes data for the Immaculate Taladite epic gems, and will
|
|
suggest them for items level 695 and up (Mythic Blackrock Foundry / Heroic
|
|
Hellfire Citadel).</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now knows about Khadgar's legendary rings.</li>
|
|
<li>Preparation for translation into Korean.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.18</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Various diagnostic changes to help me identify the compatibility
|
|
problems with patch 6.2, and some attempted fixes.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.17</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A few updates to make Pawn work better on WoW patch 6.2.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.16</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The "Special effects were not included in the value" message that you'd
|
|
see at the bottoms of tooltips for trinkets and enchanted weapons has been
|
|
removed.</li>
|
|
<li>The (?) icon used to indicate special effects on items has been replaced
|
|
with a small orange diamond (like in Diablo III).</li>
|
|
<li>Support for crystals of fear and sha-touched sockets, cogwheels and
|
|
cogwheel sockets, and assigning a fixed value to the effect portion of a
|
|
meta gem (2% chance to restore mana, etc.) have all been removed, as those
|
|
features are no longer relevant in any current content.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.15</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now work with AtlasLoot again.</li>
|
|
<li>Included some improvements to the Portuguese translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where sometimes Pawn would save over custom key bindings set
|
|
up by certain addons, such as ElvUI.</li>
|
|
<li>Included updates and improvements to the Italian translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Included a variety of updates and improvements to the French
|
|
translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Included the correct version of the French translation (with the changes
|
|
from 1.9.10, which were accidentally reverted in the 1.9.11 release).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Significant changes to the built-in Wowhead scales. (Note that
|
|
this iteration doesn't include spell power, attack power, or weapon DPS.
|
|
This is the design of the Wowhead scales, not a problem with Pawn.)</li>
|
|
<li>Lots of further improvements to the Spanish translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where weapon speed was not read properly in Spanish.</li>
|
|
<li>Made a few changes to try to make the French version of Pawn understand
|
|
large numbers (1,000 or greater) better.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Given their exorbitant cost, Pawn will no longer suggest Greater
|
|
Taladite gems on gear lower than item level 685 (mythic Highmaul).</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the problem where some new Draenor wands caused an error to appear
|
|
in the chat log and did not have their DPS calculated correctly.</li>
|
|
<li>Attempted to fix a problem in Spanish where numbers greater than 1,000
|
|
were not read properly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>New scales from Wowhead have been integrated into Pawn, and the starter
|
|
scales that Pawn previously included have been removed.</li>
|
|
<li>Includes a new Spanish translation, which is still a work-in-progress.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the socketing advisor would always unhelpfully suggest
|
|
that you put a gem "of any color" into a prismatic socket.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where It was difficult or impossible to change the color of
|
|
a scale, depending on where the Pawn window is situated. (It was
|
|
difficult if the scale list happened to be behind the color window.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where if you opened your chest of Garrison Resources and the last item you won
|
|
(it showed up in a "you won!" popup) was an upgrade, the Garrison Resources
|
|
would also show up as an upgrade. (Hey, maybe you got some Complicated
|
|
Wood instead of Simple Wood.)</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the code that dealt with Wrathion's Breath of the Black Prince
|
|
item, which added sockets to certain weapons, but is no longer obtainable by
|
|
new players and not relevant to current content.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Strength, Agility, Intellect, and Stamina can't be marked as "unusable"
|
|
in custom scales. (Since multiple primary stats are on most armor
|
|
pieces now, marking those as unusable leads to some confusing and unexpected
|
|
results.)</li>
|
|
<li>Made a couple small improvements to the French, German, and Traditional
|
|
Chinese translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now no longer suggest gems for items below level 630 (level
|
|
100 heroic dungeon). (This change is particularly noticeable for
|
|
helms, which had high-value meta sockets at level 90, but not at level 100.)</li>
|
|
<li>Improved the German and Simplified Chinese translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Additional changes to try to prevent the "UseSpecialQuestItem" error
|
|
from occurring when clicking items in the objectives list.</li>
|
|
<li>More improvements to the Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese
|
|
translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Dodge and Parry on low-level items will now be treated as if they were
|
|
Bonus Armor, at a 2:1 ratio. (40 Parry on an item will be treated as
|
|
20 Bonus Armor.)</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now once again work with AtlasLoot even when the "Use
|
|
GameTooltip" AtlasLoot setting is off. (Release versions only, not the
|
|
latest AtlasLoot beta.)</li>
|
|
<li>The warrior tank starter scale now properly has a value for bonus armor.</li>
|
|
<li>Included lots of improvements to the Traditional Chinese translation.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Changed the way that Pawn uses item tooltips, in the hopes that it will
|
|
prevent issues where the game blocks certain buttons and actions due to
|
|
"taint."</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where a few settings wouldn't be saved when logging out,
|
|
including Pawn's list of your best items used for determining upgrades.</li>
|
|
<li>Included new French translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Continued changes to the starter scales and translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Bonus armor is now listed as a separate stat from base armor and can be
|
|
given a value independently.</li>
|
|
<li>Significantly increased the value of armor and bonus armor in the tank starter
|
|
scales.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a harmless error where a message about #(Item1.UnknownLines) could appear
|
|
in the chat log when using the Compare tab.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a harmless error where a message about being unable to parse the
|
|
item link could appear in the chat log when hovering over a caged battle
|
|
pet.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated for WoW 6.0 and Warlords of Draenor. Many features have
|
|
changed in some way as a result of item changes in patch 6.0.</li>
|
|
<li>I updated the visuals for the Pawn UI to be a little more warlordy.</li>
|
|
<li>A new set of starter scales have been added for all classes and specs.
|
|
You can use these scales as you would the old Wowhead scales, and you can
|
|
also customize them to your heart's content.</li>
|
|
<li>The Wowhead scales have been disabled since they haven't been updated
|
|
for patch 6.0 and would do more harm than good.</li>
|
|
<li>The values of Pawn's default scale have changed to be a more appropriate
|
|
starting point for WoW 6.0.</li>
|
|
<li>New stats are recognized and can be assigned values on the Values tab:
|
|
Bonus Armor, Multistrike, Versatility, Movement Speed, Leech, Avoidance, Indestructible.</li>
|
|
<li>Obsolete stats (hit, etc.) are removed from your scales upon logging in,
|
|
and have been removed from the UI.</li>
|
|
<li>All of the new Taladite gems in Warlords of Draenor are now in Pawn's
|
|
database.</li>
|
|
<li>The changes to stats on pre-Draenor gems in Pawn's database have been
|
|
taken into account for purposes of gem recommendations. (I anticipate
|
|
that I'll need to do another update of gem stats before the expansion hits.)</li>
|
|
<li>A new option has been added, on by default: "Ignore sockets on low-level
|
|
items." When this option is enabled, Pawn will ignore sockets when
|
|
calculating values of low-level items (currently, any item below level 463),
|
|
so they won't have inflated values when Pawn determines upgrades.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn's calculations for item values no longer take reforging potential
|
|
into account since that feature is gone from the game.</li>
|
|
<li>All code for Pawn's Reforge Advisor feature has been removed.</li>
|
|
<li>Changed the way that information about your best items for purposes of
|
|
determining upgrades is stored and processed. (I now use item links
|
|
instead of item IDs, since in Warlords of Draenor, a mythic version of one
|
|
item and the raid finder version of the same item might have the same ID but
|
|
a different bonus suffix.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Made a tweak to make Pawn's Quest Advisor work better with ElvUI.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated Russian and German translations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The new Timeless, Flexible, Warforged, and Heroic Warforged items will
|
|
no longer show a (?) next to those terms.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h4>Version 1.8.10a</h4>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Actually including the right file this time so the fix described in the
|
|
notes works.</li>
|
|
<li>New German translation updates.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h4>Version 1.8.10b</h4>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>New Russian and Simplified Chinese translation updates.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Items that an Eye of the Black Prince can be applied to (Sha-Touched
|
|
weapons from Heart of Fear and Terrace of Eternal Spring, Level 502
|
|
Blacksmithing weapons, and weapons that drop in Throne of Thunder) will be
|
|
valued assuming that you add the socket to that weapon. Weapons from
|
|
heroic scenarios and Siege of Orgrimmar will not. (Previously only
|
|
Sha-Touched weapons were correctly being valued in this way.)</li>
|
|
<li>Made a few adjustments to try to better handle chest armor that is
|
|
classified as "robes" by the game.</li>
|
|
<li>Minor changes for patch 5.4.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed some issues with upgrade displays showing incorrect information
|
|
for wands.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed some issues with upgrade displays showing incorrect information
|
|
for characters that don't save healing gear but still have a healing scale
|
|
enabled.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now no longer show any weapons other than daggers as upgrades
|
|
for assassination rogues when using the default Wowhead scales.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a rare bug that could occur with quests such as Returned Sevenfold
|
|
that include both a choice of rewards and some guaranteed rewards, where
|
|
Pawn could incorrectly display upgrade symbols that were intended for the
|
|
guaranteed rewards on the icons for the reward choices.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem that appears to be new for patch 5.3 where inspecting
|
|
another player that you're not also targeting would not calculate an average
|
|
item level for that player's equipment.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Adjusted the values of PvP power and PvP resilience on MoP-quality gems
|
|
to their new (halved) values.</li>
|
|
<li>Added Tense Imperial Amethyst.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A few minor changes to work around a rare issue where Pawn would load
|
|
files in a different order on some machines.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Priests will no longer incorrectly see bows, crossbows, and guns as
|
|
potential upgrades when using the built-in Wowhead scales.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Sha-touched items from Heart of Fear and Terrace of Eternal Spring (all
|
|
difficulties) will now always be valued (for base value) as if you've
|
|
completed Wrathion's Chapter II questline and can add a prismatic socket to
|
|
the item.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a Brailian Portuguese translation. Thanks maxmag!</li>
|
|
<li>Includes minor updates to the other translations.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a couple minor display issues on the Compare tab when one item had
|
|
sockets and the other did not.</li>
|
|
<li>Thunderforged and Heroic Thunderforged items on the English PTR will no
|
|
longer show (?) on their tooltips.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug in average item level calculations when inspecting hunters.
|
|
(Their ranged weapons were only getting counted for half the appropriate
|
|
level.)</li>
|
|
<li>The Reforging Advisor will now also show up when you right-click an item
|
|
while talking to an arcane reforger.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>This version of Pawn now includes French support, thanks to translation
|
|
volunteers othor and Snuff, and an untested Traditional Chinese translation
|
|
based on work by BNSSNB.</li>
|
|
<li>Reduced Pawn's memory usage by about 35% (at least on my PC) by
|
|
optimizing the way translations are loaded. Pawn's memory usage should
|
|
return to about where it was back when it was for a single language only.</li>
|
|
<li>Corrected a calculation problem where the Ghost Iron Dragonling trinket
|
|
was undervalued because Pawn suggested Cataclysm cogwheels for it instead of
|
|
Mists of Pandaria cogwheels. (Thanks durandal42!)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a minor problem that could occur when using the Compare tab if you
|
|
used Pawn in the past (or on another computer), then stopped using it, then
|
|
sold some of your best items, and then started using it again.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>This version of Pawn now works for German and Russian in addition to
|
|
English. Big thanks to the translation volunteers Sandmahn and
|
|
mgotovtsev! It also has an untested Simplified Chinese translation
|
|
based on work by bigbamboo.</li>
|
|
<li>This version also contains a large number of changes to prepare for
|
|
German, Russian, and more languages in the future.</li>
|
|
<li>Some now-unnecessary information that was being stored in Pawn's
|
|
SavedVariables file will now be removed when logging out.</li>
|
|
<li>Reorganized the Options tab to make it a bit cleaner. Options for
|
|
changing the digits of displayed precision for values and for controlling
|
|
the visibility of (?) icons on tooltips were removed.</li>
|
|
<li>Changed a bunch of bits of text throughout Pawn.</li>
|
|
<li>Worked around a problem that occurred with Pawn annotations showing up
|
|
on AtlasLoot items twice. (To show Pawn annotations on AtlasLoot
|
|
items, click Options in AtlasLoot and then check Use GameTooltip.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the Pyrium Weapon Chain and Living Steel Weapon Chain.</li>
|
|
<li>Crystals of Fear will now no longer improperly show (?) on their
|
|
tooltips.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.7.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now properly show values and/or upgrades for mistweaver monks
|
|
as intended.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.7.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed another typo that caused Pawn to show an error when high-level
|
|
engineers opened the Gems tab and prevented cogwheels from showing up in the
|
|
list.</li>
|
|
<li>Changed the text "best in slot" to "your best" to make it more clear
|
|
that those items are not the best items you <i>could</i> get (the more
|
|
traditional definition of that term), but the best that you currently <i>
|
|
have</i>.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.7.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an error that occurred when clicking the "Normalize values (like
|
|
Wowhead)" checkbox on the Values tab as of Pawn 1.7.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.7.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a typo that caused Pawn to show an error when opening the
|
|
socketing window for an item with a cogwheel socket.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The way that Pawn uses gems and socketed items has changed drastically.
|
|
Pawn will now take an item's level into account and automatically select
|
|
gems of an appropriate quality to socket into that item for both the socketing
|
|
advisor, and also to use in calculating the internal item values for the
|
|
item. So, an epic from Heart of Fear will have Mists of Pandaria gems
|
|
suggested for it, and an epic from Naxxramas will have Wrath of the Lich
|
|
King gems suggested for it, without you having to do anything extra. You can still browse through items of various levels on the Gems
|
|
tab, but doing so no longer changes any settings and doesn't affect
|
|
calculations.<ul>
|
|
<li>It is no longer possible to manually set a value for colored
|
|
sockets, cogwheel sockets, or the stats portion of meta sockets.
|
|
You can still assign a value to the special effects of meta gems ("3%
|
|
more damage on crits").</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The Gems tab works a little differently now than it did in previous
|
|
versions. You can now have it show the best gems overall for a given scale, or you can
|
|
have it show the recommended gems for an item of a particular level.<ul>
|
|
<li>When clicking the Pawn button that appears on the item socketing
|
|
window, the Gems tab will now automatically be set up to show you
|
|
recommended gems for an item of the level you're currently socketing.</li>
|
|
<li>Since Pawn doesn't understand the special effects of meta gems but those
|
|
are the most important parts of meta gems, Pawn will no longer attempt to
|
|
suggest meta gems for you. You should instead use online class guides
|
|
to select the most appropriate meta gem.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Sockets appear a little differently on the Compare tab than they did in
|
|
previous versions. The Compare tab will now show you the total
|
|
value of all sockets and socket bonuses on an item, including colored
|
|
sockets (either the correct colors of gems plus the socket bonus or all of
|
|
your best gem, depending on which strategy maximizes the item's value), meta
|
|
sockets (including the meta effect bonus), cogwheels, and sha-touched
|
|
weapons. It will also tell you whether you should go for the socket
|
|
bonus for a particular item without having to open the socketing advisor (so
|
|
you can find out on items you don't own).</li>
|
|
<li>Made various other small improvements to the Compare tab to handle items
|
|
with large numbers of stats and scales with large values, so you don't see
|
|
things like "(+1234..." when numbers get too big to fit on the screen.
|
|
Now you'll see "(+12.3k)" instead.</li>
|
|
<li>Added some features to make Pawn work with
|
|
some item tooltip changes in patch 5.1.</li>
|
|
<li>Added new monk scales from Wowhead and removed the placeholder scales
|
|
for monks that were provided in earlier versions.</li>
|
|
<li>When using the default settings, Pawn will now show you which of your
|
|
two rings is better so it's easy to tell which one you should replace with
|
|
your new one, instead of just saying "This is one of your best items." (This information was already available if you turned on
|
|
the "Show scale values and upgrade %" option.)</li>
|
|
<li>The "add a blank line before values" option is now on by default because
|
|
it fits the new item tooltip style in patch 5.1 better. You can turn
|
|
it back off if you don't like it. I made a few other minor
|
|
modifications to tooltip formatting.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now show a very clear error message if you try to use the
|
|
English version of Pawn on a non-English World of Warcraft client.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug introduced as of WoW 5.0 that prevented item levels from
|
|
showing up on the Compare tab.</li>
|
|
<li>Made a few changes to the way that Pawn starts up that might help some
|
|
people who were having random troubles with Pawn not working properly
|
|
immediately upon logging in.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn 1.7 introduces a ton of changes to the calculation engine.
|
|
I ran a variety of tests, but please let me know if you notice any
|
|
anomalies. (If you report an issue, let me know which item and scale
|
|
you're seeing it on, and what appears to be wrong.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated the Wowhead scales for all classes and specs except monks.
|
|
There are significant changes included for: Protection warrior, Protection
|
|
paladin, Beast mastery hunter, Assassination rogue, Combat rogue, Discipline
|
|
priest, Holy priest, Frost death knight, Unholy death knight, Elemental
|
|
shaman, Guardian druid.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>By default, if you have a two-handed weapon equipped, Pawn will now not
|
|
show one-handed weapons or off-hand frill items as upgrades, and vice-versa.
|
|
(This is determined solely based on your character's currently equipped
|
|
weapon.) Enable the "Show upgrades for both 1H and 2H" option on the
|
|
Options tab to get back the old behavior, where Pawn will try to keep track
|
|
of your best two-handed weapon, main hand weapon, and off-hand weapon or
|
|
frill item separately, and show you upgrades for all of them, even if you
|
|
didn't typically use that type of item.</li>
|
|
<li>Changed the way that Pawn thinks about upgrades compared to heirloom
|
|
items. Previously if you had an heirloom that scaled from level 1 to
|
|
80 that granted an XP bonus, it would never suggest another item as an
|
|
upgrade to that one until you hit level 81. Now it will immediately
|
|
start showing upgrades to that item upon hitting level 80, because those
|
|
items stop granting bonus XP as soon as you hit level 80.</li>
|
|
<li>Made a change for a Spanish translation (in development) due to the fact
|
|
that the Spanish version of World of Warcraft doesn't use commas in numbers
|
|
like the English version (12,345) or periods like the German version
|
|
(12.345)—it displays with neither (12345).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added some placeholder scales for monks so that you can use Pawn as you
|
|
level your pandas! Once more reliable numbers are available I'll
|
|
include those, but these should be more than sufficient while leveling.<ul>
|
|
<li>Since they're not from Wowhead, they'll show up in a separate
|
|
"Placeholder scales" category. This new category will sort at the
|
|
bottom of the list.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The Wowhead scales will now never show ranged weapons as upgrades for
|
|
warriors and rogues, nor melee weapons as upgrades for hunters.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed another issue that Pawn had with understanding certain Mists of
|
|
Pandaria items with lots of stats.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a version mismatch issue I introduced with the latest update that
|
|
caused the Compare tab to not work properly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where when the Loot Upgrade Advisor is disabled, the group
|
|
loot / need before greed roll window wouldn't appear.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a nasty calculation bug that occurred on items with more than 999
|
|
of a stat (the stat would only get 1/1000th of the correct number of
|
|
points).</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where sometimes using LinkWrangler and Pawn at the same
|
|
time would cause an error to appear when logging in.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Reimplemented the Loot Upgrade Advisor for the new group loot roll
|
|
windows in WoW 5.0. It should be functionally equivalent to the old
|
|
Loot Upgrade Advisor (green arrows on upgrades, and a yellow popup telling
|
|
you which scales and items it's an upgrade for).</li>
|
|
<li>Added upgrade arrows to items in the Loot Rolls ("/loot") window and the
|
|
You Won! window.</li>
|
|
<li>Temporarily altered the Wowhead hunter scales to include Expertise (at
|
|
the same values as Hit) until Wowhead updates their stat weights for 5.0.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the Socketing Advisor tooltip obscured most of the
|
|
Socket Gems button.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where weapon damage on heirloom weapons would not get
|
|
properly recognized and counted (and would spam your chat log with an
|
|
error).</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where an error could occur when hovering over certain gemmed
|
|
relic items.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a harmless error that could appear when trying to put a relic or
|
|
throwing weapon into the slots in the Compare tab. (You just can't let
|
|
that vendor trash go, can you?)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for Pawn values on items in Void Storage.</li>
|
|
<li>The spell penetration stat has been converted into the PvP power stat.
|
|
Any scales that had spell penetration now have PvP power in its place.</li>
|
|
<li>The IsRelic and IsThrown stats are now gone, with no replacement (since relic
|
|
items and thrown weapons are now vendor trash).</li>
|
|
<li>The stats list on the Values tab has been reorganized slightly.</li>
|
|
<li>The Pawn window is now jade-colored and includes high-resolution art for
|
|
those of us with 30" monitors.</li>
|
|
<li>Elite- and Heroic Elite-quality items will no longer show an unnecessary
|
|
(?) icon in Mists of Pandaria.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Initial compatibility with Mists of Pandaria and World of Warcraft 5.0.
|
|
Not all features will work properly on WoW 5.0 at this time.<ul>
|
|
<li>No built-in scales are available for monks at this time. If
|
|
you'd like to test out Pawn on a monk but don't have custom stat values
|
|
you want to use, you have two options:<ul>
|
|
<li>Make a copy of the stat values for the most similar druid spec:
|
|
go to the Scales tab, click the appropriate druid spec, click Copy,
|
|
and give the new scale a name.</li>
|
|
<li>Start from a set of default stat values: go to the Scales tab,
|
|
click Defaults, and give the new scale a name.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the issue where Pawn couldn't understand stats on tooltips
|
|
that were greater than 999 and now display with a comma.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the new, generally shorter names of stats
|
|
("critical strike" instead of "critical strike rating", "pvp resilience"
|
|
instead of "resilience").</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed an issue where monks would get errors when hovering over
|
|
armor.</li>
|
|
<li>The Loot Upgrade Advisor is not functional in WoW 5.0.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug that was causing Pawn to no longer function
|
|
properly after preordering Mists of Pandaria.</li>
|
|
<li>Added the new level 90 Mists of Pandaria gems to the Gems tab if you're
|
|
using Pawn on Mists of Pandaria or the 5.0 PTRs.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the elemental resistance stats since they're not present on
|
|
modern gear.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the distinction between bonus armor and base armor since the
|
|
last items to feature bonus armor were in Wrath of the Lich King and Mists
|
|
of Pandaria isn't adding any.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a potential bug fix for some sporadic problems where if some
|
|
players' addons load in a certain order, Pawn might not get initialized
|
|
properly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.20</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a rare bug that could occur when showing the Loot Upgrade Advisor
|
|
when an upgrade drops and your computer didn't have the stats for the
|
|
previous best item for one of your scales from the server yet.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed (I believe) a long-standing bug where the same ring could be
|
|
chosen as both your first and second best item for that slot. (Thanks
|
|
to WildCard_25 for the investigation!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.19</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Non-caster classes will no longer have off-hand frill items suggested as
|
|
upgrades to their off-hand weapon by default (in the Wowhead scales), even if the secondary stats are
|
|
better, because this almost certainly just means that they aren't
|
|
dual-wielding, not that the item is <i>actually</i> useful.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a minor issue where conflicts with other addons could sometimes
|
|
cause an error when trying to calculate the average equipped item level of a
|
|
player you're inspecting. (Pawn still can't calculate the item level
|
|
in these cases, but it won't cause an error or display inaccurate
|
|
information.)</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the default Wowhead stat values for warriors.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.18</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug in the average item level calculation for Fury warriors who
|
|
use two two-handed weapons.</li>
|
|
<li>Added Pawn annotations to the tooltips that appear in the "You are not
|
|
eligible for these items" window that appears when you kill bosses a second
|
|
time in Raid Finder runs, so you'll know how sad you should be that that axe
|
|
finally dropped when you can't roll on it.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.17</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You can now once again see someone's average equipped item level by
|
|
hovering over the Pawn button on the inspect window. (Your own
|
|
equipped item level is now in the General section of your stats list, even
|
|
without Pawn installed.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a long-standing issue where hovering over the Pawn button on the
|
|
inspect window could display inaccurate (too low) totals and average item
|
|
levels if the server hadn't sent your computer the stats for one or more of
|
|
the items the inspected player was wearing yet. (Now you know that
|
|
when you hover over someone at level 85 and see that their average item
|
|
level is 145, you know that they really<i> are</i> that much of a n00b and
|
|
it's not just a miscalculation.) </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.16</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Items found in the Raid Finder versions of the Dragon Soul raid will no
|
|
longer appear with an unnecessary (?) icon.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.15</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When you delete a character and then create a new character with the
|
|
same name but a different class, Pawn will now automatically hide the
|
|
Wowhead scales from the old class and show the Wowhead scales for the new
|
|
class.</li>
|
|
<li>Corrected the display of the item you're upgrading in the loot upgrade
|
|
advisor. (Since 4.2 it would say things like "25% upgrade vs.
|
|
ff00ff00Your Old Item".)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.14</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added in the new epic gems available in WoW patch 4.3. (You can't
|
|
see them when you're on a 4.2 realm.)</li>
|
|
<li>Corrected a few calculation errors for Guardian's Demonseye, Jagged
|
|
Dream Emerald, and Lightning Jasper.</li>
|
|
<li>Hid the equipped average item level information from the Pawn tooltip
|
|
when on WoW 4.3
|
|
since that's now available on the character sheet without needing Pawn.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the value of the stats portion of meta sockets ("Meta:
|
|
stats") was being drastically overvalued (the "Meta: effect" value was being
|
|
included as well).</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where it wasn't possible to manually override a value for
|
|
prismatic sockets.</li>
|
|
<li>Possibly worked around an error that some people were receiving
|
|
("attempt to index field 'UnenchantedStats' (a nil value)") that may have
|
|
been related to Enchantrix or tekKompare. (I'm not sure because I was
|
|
never able to reproduce it myself.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added updated Wowhead scales for all classes and specs, significantly
|
|
updated for patch 4.2. (For example, the new scales for plate tanks no
|
|
longer include agility.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added Pawn tooltip support to the encounter journal loot lists in patch
|
|
4.2. (This doesn't add upgrade arrows next to the items yet; the
|
|
upgrade arrows will be on the tooltips themselves.)</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the unnecessary (?) that appeared on honor and conquest gear
|
|
next to "Season 9".</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where one-handed caster weapons (not main hand weapons;
|
|
pretty much just Amani Scepter of Rites) would show up as massive upgrades
|
|
for your off-hand slot even though you couldn't actually put the item there.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Items that bind to your Battle.net account will no longer get (?) icons
|
|
on them.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an issue where Fierce Ember Topaz would be improperly suggested or
|
|
not suggested for socketing. (Calculations were still correct.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the three new Shadowspirit Diamond cuts that were
|
|
added in patch 4.0.6.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the Gems tab would not show any gems if you were level
|
|
81+ didn't have two primary professions (wtf).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Upgrades that are less than half of a percent better than your current
|
|
gear will no longer be shown as upgrades.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed an annoying bug in 1.5.6 that was causing some people to get a lot
|
|
of errors ("attempt to compare number with nil") and was causing upgrade
|
|
tracking features to not work properly for rings.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug that would occur when hovering over the Pawn button on your character sheet
|
|
if your computer hadn't downloaded information about your equipped items yet.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed an issue with a couple Nightstones being improperly suggested for
|
|
socketing. (Calculations involving those gems were still correct.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|

<h3>Version 1.5.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>I added back a "Show both current and base values" option since some
|
|
people just couldn't live without it. <i>(...you whiners. :)</i></li>
|
|
<li>Pawn's now smarter about what it considers as upgrades for heirloom
|
|
items. Heirloom weapons currently scale from level 1 to 80, so when
|
|
you're level 1 to 79, Pawn won't consider other weapons to be upgrades, but
|
|
when you hit level 80 it will start suggesting upgrades again.
|
|
Heirloom chests currently scale from level 1 to 80 so Pawn will work
|
|
similarly, but they give an XP boost until you hit level 81, so Pawn won't
|
|
start suggesting upgrades for your chest until you hit level 81. Once
|
|
you hit the level cap (85 if you have Cataclysm) then it will ignore
|
|
heirloom-ness for purposes of tracking upgrades.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the Wowhead stat weights for all warrior specs, holy and protection paladin, marksman hunter, holy priest, elemental shaman, all mage specs, and balance and resto druid.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added a new per-scale option (on by default) that causes Pawn to never
|
|
consider armor that your class doesn't specialize in as an upgrade after your
|
|
character hits level 50. (For example, with the option on, a holy
|
|
paladin wearing crappy quest green plate that sees the most awesome epic mail healing
|
|
pants <em>evar</em> will still not see that item as an upgrade since it
|
|
would break the +5% intellect bonus for wearing only plate.) To change
|
|
this option, go to the Values tab, choose a scale, scroll down to the list
|
|
or armor types and click one, and then check the option that appears.</li>
|
|
<li>Added new options to disable each of the Pawn advisors (loot upgrade
|
|
advisor, quest upgrade advisor, socketing advisor, and reforging advisor)
|
|
individually.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a new option to no longer color the borders of tooltips for items
|
|
that are upgrades. (This is useful if you also use TipTac or just
|
|
really don't like that feature.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added proper support for items with prismatic sockets (which will no
|
|
longer appear in the UI as red sockets) and cogwheel sockets (which were
|
|
previously ignored).</li>
|
|
<li>The best cogwheels for each of your scales will now be listed on the
|
|
Gems tab when you're on an engineer of level 81 or higher.</li>
|
|
<li>Included a bunch of new patch-4.0-friendly scales from Wowhead.</li>
|
|
<li>The "show current item values" and "show base item values" options are
|
|
now gone. Base values are always shown, and current values are never
|
|
shown.<ul>
|
|
<li>Update: I added this feature back in version 1.5.6.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The Pawn UI now closes when you press the Escape key.</li>
|
|
<li>Hovering over the Pawn button on your character sheet will now list both
|
|
the average item level of your gear as well as the "epic item level" that it
|
|
did in the past. Pawn's epic item level number factors item rarity
|
|
into the value; the average item level ignores the rarity of the item and
|
|
will yield numbers that are more comparable to the ones you see in-game,
|
|
such as the Looking for Dungeon interface.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the socket values for Wowhead scales that aren't
|
|
visible on your character's tooltips (such as the ones for other classes)
|
|
were getting socket values calculated that were far too low.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where exported scales didn't include the quality of meta
|
|
gems to use.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where item recipes taught by a profession trainer would have
|
|
unnecessary (?) annotations.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a minor display issue that occurred in the Loot Upgrade Advisor when a massive upgrade dropped
|
|
in a dungeon run.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The Quest Upgrade Advisor will now put a question mark (?) icon on
|
|
trinkets.</li>
|
|
<li>You can now show and hide scales by shift-clicking on their name in the
|
|
scale list. (Maybe this will help all those people who can't seem to
|
|
find the "show scale in tooltips" checkbox...)</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the dodge rating on the new Cataclysm head enchantment for tanks.</li>
|
|
<li>When you copy a built-in (Wowhead) scale, the built-in scale will now be
|
|
automatically hidden.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where if you right-click an NPC who has a quest with some
|
|
items you've never seen before and some that you have, Pawn would sometimes
|
|
display incorrect upgrade/vendor information. (Unfortunately, this
|
|
happens a lot when leveling.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where some reforged items were getting a few extra points in
|
|
their values for their reforging potential, which shouldn't happen since you
|
|
can't reforge an item a second time without restoring the original item
|
|
first.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated stat weights from Wowhead for some rogue, death knight, and
|
|
shaman specs have been included.</li>
|
|
<li>Added more detail to the "Show item IDs" option, which isn't too useful
|
|
to most people.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a nasty bug where sometimes hotkeyed spells and abilities would
|
|
stop working after using the reforging or item socketing UI.</li>
|
|
<li>The Wowhead scales for rogues will now ignore upgrades for two-handed
|
|
weapons (which would just be fishing poles).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You can now set Pawn to hide upgrades for your one-handed weapon set and
|
|
your two-handed weapon on a per-scale basis. To change this setting,
|
|
go to the Values tab, select the scale you want to modify, and then find
|
|
either a one-handed or two-handed weapon in the list of weapon types, and
|
|
the new option will appear. (The option will not be visible for weapon
|
|
types that you cannot equip, such as daggers for paladins.)<ul>
|
|
<li>For example, even though paladin tanks can use two-handed weapons, a
|
|
two-handed weapon is never an "upgrade" for a paladin tanking set, so
|
|
you can turn off upgrade notifications for them. Similarly,
|
|
retribution paladins can use one-handed weapons, but they are never
|
|
upgrades.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The amount by which you can increase an item's score through reforging
|
|
is now shown on the Compare tab as "Reforge potential," and is now
|
|
automatically added to the score of an item.<ul>
|
|
<li>This is consistent with how Pawn treats empty sockets—the assumption
|
|
is that if you care about the item you will gem and reforge it properly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Added a new stat, "Off-hand frill," which applies to all "held in off
|
|
hand" caster items, and not off-hand weapons.</li>
|
|
<li>The Compare tab will now also show the percentage increase in the score
|
|
of the better item in addition to the score difference.</li>
|
|
<li>Cloaks will no longer be counted as cloth items, so scales that have
|
|
"items with this are unusable" set for cloth armor will now get values for
|
|
cloaks.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the item link window could have a green border when it
|
|
shouldn't.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed an error that could sometimes occur when adding off-hand items to
|
|
the Compare tab using keyboard shortcuts.</li>
|
|
<li>Low-level items with elemental spell damage ("of Fiery Wrath" and so on)
|
|
will now be treated as if they had spell power, rather than having a
|
|
specific unique stat.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added the Reforging Advisor, which suggests the way to modify an item
|
|
that will maximize its value when you're visiting an Arcane Reforger.<ul>
|
|
<li>Be careful when reforging hit rating and expertise; if you adjust
|
|
your scales to reduce the value of those stats when you're at or near
|
|
the cap, Pawn will determine that the item's value would be maximized if
|
|
you reforged the hit or expertise into something else, which may take
|
|
you below the cap.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Cataclysm gem cuts are now available on the Gems tab, including many
|
|
that weren't available in beta. To update your scales to use the new
|
|
gems, just select them from the lists on the Gems tab. (This is a
|
|
per-scale setting.)</li>
|
|
<li>The upgrade annotations on weapons will now show which weapon set (1H or
|
|
2H) the item is upgrading so it's more clear that, for example, some random
|
|
green dagger isn't better than Shadowmourne; it's just better than your
|
|
skinning knife.</li>
|
|
<li>Prismatic sockets on relic items will now get a proper value.
|
|
(Pawn will treat them as red sockets, but since there are no socket bonuses,
|
|
it won't really matter—Pawn will assume that you will socket the best gem of any color when
|
|
calculating the value.)</li>
|
|
<li>If any of the reward choices for a quest is a trinket, Pawn will now
|
|
never show the coins (highest vendor price) icon on any item for that quest
|
|
so you aren't as likely to accidentally take a useless item if there's a
|
|
nice trinket available.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn now tells you when an item you're looking at is an upgrade to your
|
|
current best gear for a particular scale.<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn scans your equipped items and all of your Equipment Manager
|
|
sets to find your best items for each of your scales.</li>
|
|
<li>Tooltips of items that are better than the best item of the same
|
|
type will get an upgrade icon and have an upgrade percentage listed.<ul>
|
|
<li>Trinkets are ignored since they have special effects that Pawn
|
|
can't value that drastically affect their usefulness.</li>
|
|
<li>For rings, items that are better than your <em>second</em>-best
|
|
ring will be shown as an upgrade.</li>
|
|
<li>Items can be an upgrade for multiple scales simultaneously.
|
|
For example, if you had a "healing throughput" scale and a "healing
|
|
regen" scale, a nice new healing weapon might be better than your
|
|
current weapon for both of those scales.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>You can easily compare items against your current best-in-slot items
|
|
using new buttons added to the Compare tab.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn currently assumes that you'll want to keep a two-hander around
|
|
as well as two one-handers, so upgrades for either set are
|
|
handled independently. This can create some odd situations; for
|
|
example, a shaman with no interest in two-handed weapons at all will see
|
|
most two-handed weapons as a potential upgrade.<ul>
|
|
<li>If you want to avoid this, you can set the two-handed weapon
|
|
stats ("Axe: 2H," "Polearm," etc.) to Ignored on the Values tab for
|
|
your scale(s). You can't make changes to the built-in Wowhead
|
|
scales directly, so you'd have to make a copy of the scale first,
|
|
hide the Wowhead one, and then modify your copy. I'll look
|
|
into ways of making this less stupid in future versions.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The new upgrade features can be turned off entirely from the Options
|
|
tab if you find them annoying.</li>
|
|
<li>Added the Quest Upgrade Advisor, which adds an arrow icon next to quest
|
|
rewards that are upgrades for you, or if none of the rewards are good, adds
|
|
a coins icon next to the reward that will vendor for the most money.</li>
|
|
<li>Added the Loot Upgrade Advisor, which adds a popup window next to
|
|
the roll window when an item drops that is an upgrade for you.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The default behavior has changed so that Pawn only modifies tooltips of
|
|
items that are upgrades. Existing Pawn users will probably want to
|
|
change the "Show upgrades on tooltips" option to "Show scale values and upgrade %."</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem that appeared in patch 4.0.3 where haste and resilience
|
|
rating on items was not being recognized.</li>
|
|
<li>Quest rewards shown on the world map will now have Pawn values shown on
|
|
them.</li>
|
|
<li>"Currently equipped" tooltips attached to the item link window will now
|
|
have Pawn values shown on them.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a new "stat" for all off-hand weapons. The Wowhead scales
|
|
for specs that can't use off-hand weapons have that stat ignored. </li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug in Pawn's item score cache that was causing unnecessary
|
|
slowdowns when Pawn needed to calculate several values at once, such as when
|
|
hovering over the Pawn button on your character sheet, or when "currently
|
|
equipped" tooltips are visible.</li>
|
|
<li>Scales can no longer mark the weapon speed "stat" as ignored.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the Wowhead scales to add a placeholder value for mastery
|
|
rating.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the value of spirit in the Wowhead shadow priest scale to the
|
|
levels of hit rating due to the Twisted Faith talent.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.4.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer put a (?) next to "Reforged" on reforged items.</li>
|
|
<li>Spell penetration is once again properly recognized on items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now suggest gems based on the colors and cuts available in
|
|
patch 4.0.</li>
|
|
<li>The new Cataclysm gem cuts (as well as the old Burning Crusade
|
|
cuts) are available in Pawn's Gems tab. You can select them using the
|
|
dropdown lists at the top. (As before, you can choose a different
|
|
quality of gems for each of your scales.) The Cataclysm cuts are not
|
|
visible unless on the Cataclysm beta.</li>
|
|
<li>The built-in Wowhead scales have been adjusted somewhat for patch 4.0.
|
|
Hopefully they should better reflect updated class mechanics in 4.0, but
|
|
they do not currently match the stat weights on Wowhead exactly. If you have suggestions, please see
|
|
<a href="http://cata.wowhead.com/forums&topic=169544&p=2315094">this thread
|
|
on the Wowhead theorycrafting forums</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>Many stats have been removed from items and are thus also removed from
|
|
Pawn. Your existing scales will be automatically converted to take
|
|
this into account:<ul>
|
|
<li>The following stats will be removed from scales entirely since they
|
|
were removed from items: armor penetration, defense rating, block value,
|
|
block rating, ranged attack power, and all forms of single-school spell
|
|
damage.</li>
|
|
<li>If the scale contains a value for MP5 and its value for Spirit is
|
|
less than half of the scale's value for MP5, Spirit will be raised to
|
|
that amount. MP5 is removed from scales. MP5 still appears
|
|
on socket bonuses for a few healer items; those socket bonuses will be
|
|
considered to have 2 Spirit per 1 MP5 for purposes of calculations.</li>
|
|
<li>The druid concept of "feral attack power" no longer exists, so the
|
|
fake Feral AP stat has been removed from Pawn as well. Be sure to
|
|
add weapon DPS to scales to compensate.</li>
|
|
<li>The following stats have been removed from scales because they are
|
|
very rare: Health per 5, raw mana, and raw health. Items or
|
|
enchantments with these rare stats will be instead considered to have
|
|
points in base stats (Stamina, Intellect) for purposes of calculations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A bunch of new fixes to make Pawn work on the Cataclysm beta and the 4.0
|
|
PTRs. This version also works fine on live realms.<ul>
|
|
<li>Mastery rating now works again.</li>
|
|
<li>The problem where Pawn would hang after scanning approximately 50
|
|
items has been resolved.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an embarrassing typo that caused staves and polearms to not get
|
|
Pawn values for classes that cannot also use two-handed swords, axes, and
|
|
maces (everyone but warriors, I guess?).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Stats with negative values will no longer be taken into account when normalizing
|
|
item values. (For example, if a scale is Stamina = 10, Intellect = 5,
|
|
Spirit = -10, then all values for that scale will be divided by 15, not 5.)</li>
|
|
<li>You can now mark stats as "unusable." Items that have that stat on
|
|
them will get no value for that scale. For example, a scale for
|
|
shamans can mark plate as unusable, and then all plate armor will get no
|
|
value for that scale since shamans can't wear it.</li>
|
|
<li>The built-in scales now take advantage of the unusable stats feature, so
|
|
unequippable items will not receive values. (Your character's current
|
|
level is not taken into account for this, so for example low-level shamans
|
|
and hunters will still get values on mail items even though they can't wear
|
|
mail until level 40.)</li>
|
|
<li>There are now separate stats for the one-handed and two-handed versions
|
|
of axes, maces, and swords. Existing scales that had a value for those
|
|
weapon types will now only have a value for the one-handed version of those
|
|
weapon types and will need to be updated manually.</li>
|
|
<li>Hopefully fixed the bug that a few people were seeing where they sometimes could
|
|
not select scales. I finally ran into it myself and tried an
|
|
on-the-spot fix that worked for me.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Improved the appearance of the Pawn UI. It's now no longer
|
|
translucent, so it should be easier to read the text in certain
|
|
circumstances.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Implemented additional performance enhancements so that Pawn uses even
|
|
less memory and CPU time. Having the Wowhead scales loaded now
|
|
increases Pawn's memory and CPU usage by only a negligible amount, so I
|
|
don't recommend disabling them anymore.</li>
|
|
<li>Added an arrow icon to the best item shown on the Compare tab to make it
|
|
clearer at a glance and for colorblind people.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where Pawn wouldn't recalculate which gems were best for a
|
|
scale after chanigng stat values until the next time you logged in.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a separate bug where sometimes the display of socket values that
|
|
were calculated automatically (as opposed to manually set) would not display
|
|
correctly, even if they were properly calculated.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Thanks to some gnomish performance engineering, Pawn now uses about 95%
|
|
less CPU time during login, which should reduce your login times by a second
|
|
or two.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a new scale from Wowhead for arms warriors.</li>
|
|
<li>Changed the (*) warning message to be a little clearer, and now it has a
|
|
new (?) icon. Pawn now calls item properties that it doesn't recognize
|
|
"special effects."</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the item special effect warning message wasn't showing up
|
|
even when enabled.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug that might occur after the Wowhead scales (or any
|
|
scales from a "plugin" of any sort) were disabled by deleting
|
|
Wowhead.lua.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Changed a bunch of text to make it even easier for new users to get
|
|
started with Pawn.</li>
|
|
<li>The default for new users of Pawn is now to only show the base values of
|
|
items. If you're already using Pawn and have current item values
|
|
shown, your settings won't be changed and you'll still see both numbers.</li>
|
|
<li>Rearranged the list of stats on the Values tab so that more common stats
|
|
are easier to find, and really rare stats like raw health aren't wasting
|
|
prime screen real estate.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for items with mastery rating for those of you in the
|
|
Cataclysm beta. (Untested.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an issue for patch 3.3.5 that prevented you from linking gems from
|
|
the Gems tab.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added a very small value for Stamina for Wowhead scales that did not
|
|
already include Stamina. This will help prevent certain very odd gems
|
|
from appearing as suggestions in the Gems tab. (For example, some DPS
|
|
scales did not include values for any blue stat, so the ret pally Gems tab
|
|
included a gem with Spirit!)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where Pawn disabled the Blizzard UI's item comparison
|
|
tooltip that appears when you hold down the shift key while your mouse is
|
|
over an item link window.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the Export button would generate an invalid scale tag
|
|
for the Wowhead scales. Now you can properly export the Wowhead scales
|
|
just like your own.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the Pawn socketing suggestions window would not show
|
|
the proper name of Wowhead scales.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.3</h3>
|
|
<p><strong>Important! </strong>After upgrading to Pawn
|
|
1.3, your Pawn settings and scales will be upgraded and will no longer be
|
|
visible in older versions of Pawn. If you need to revert to an older version of Pawn,
|
|
use the new /pawn backup command to make a backup copy of your scales that you
|
|
can save in a file on your computer.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You can now see and edit all of your scales in the Pawn UI, regardless
|
|
of which character you're currently on. (You'll need to log into
|
|
each of your characters once first.) Each of your scales can be
|
|
shown in tooltips for just one or none of your characters (like in previous
|
|
versions), or you can have a scale show up in the tooltips for multiple
|
|
different characters.</li>
|
|
<li>All of the stat weight presets from Wowhead are now included with Pawn,
|
|
so you can immediately start using it without needing to import or create
|
|
any scales if you don't feel like customizing. The Wowhead scales
|
|
can't be changed, but if you want to use them as a starting point for your
|
|
own scales you can copy them and modify the copy.<ul>
|
|
<li>If you have feedback for the Wowhead scales, please see the

|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The new Scale tab now contains most of the per-scale options (such as
|
|
whether it shows up on your character's tooltips), as well as the options
|
|
for importing, exporting, and creating scales. The Values tab
|
|
(previously the Scales tab) is now a bit simpler.</li>
|
|
<li>The list of scales now appears in a pane to the left of the Pawn UI instead of in
|
|
a dropdown. The scales that are visible on the current character's
|
|
tooltips will appear at the top of the list.</li>
|
|
<li>The "Normalize values (like Wowhead)" option can now be set individually
|
|
for each of your scales for finer control.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a new command <strong>/pawn backup</strong> that you can use to
|
|
back up all of your custom scales at once as a big mass of scale tags.</li>
|
|
<li>Item levels will now only appear on items in the Compare tab if you also
|
|
have them enabled for item tooltips in Interface Options.</li>
|
|
<li>If you hold down the Shift key when clicking the Delete button to delete
|
|
a scale, the scale will now be deleted immediately without requiring
|
|
confirmation.</li>
|
|
<li>Many bugs were fixed, including several bugs that only existed in
|
|
pre-release versions of Pawn 1.3 and are not listed here:<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a potential error when setting up default Pawn keybindings when using Pawn for the first time for a
|
|
character, and added a
|
|
diagnostic message to help determine why the problem is occurring.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where often the first item comparison you performed in the
|
|
Compare tab wouldn't show item values until you clicked the Swap button or
|
|
the list of scales.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the error that would occur when trying to put an heirloom item in
|
|
the Compare tab.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a display issue where scales with colons (':') in their names
|
|
would appear incorrectly on tooltips if the "align values to right edge
|
|
of tooltip" option were enabled.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the scale total values listed when hovering over a
|
|
Pawn button on someone's character sheet weren't listed in alphabetical order.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.2.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>What used to be called the enchanted value of an item is now the current
|
|
value, and what used to be called the unenchanted value is now the base
|
|
value. The word "base" now also appears on tooltips. (No functionality has changed; this is just a terminology
|
|
change.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the error that occurred when hovering over Brewfest steins.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.2.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an error that occurred when hovering over profession recipes.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.2.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You can now select what quality of gems to use for each of your scales
|
|
on the Gems tab: uncommon, rare, or epic. Each scale can have a
|
|
different quality level, so your main spec scale can use epic gems, and your
|
|
offspec scale can use rare gems.</li>
|
|
<li>By popular request, enchanted values of items now no longer include any
|
|
points for sockets on the item, since the enchanted value is meant to
|
|
reflect the current state of the item. This means that before you put
|
|
gems in an item, the enchanted value of an item will be lower than the
|
|
unenchanted value.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where occasionally items that weren't enchanted would show
|
|
two equal values, such as "123.4 (123.4)". (This was only a display
|
|
issue; the values were being calculated properly.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.2.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now calculate correct socket values if you have the "normalize
|
|
values (like Wowhead)" option enabled.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.2.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed the "attempt to perform arithmetic on field '?' (a nil value)"
|
|
error that some users were experiencing in Pawn 1.2.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Note:</b> Upon installation, this version of Pawn will automatically make adjustments to
|
|
each of your
|
|
scales' socket values. To avoid this, you can turn off the option for each
|
|
scale to always correctly match gem colors.</li>
|
|
<li>By default, Pawn will automatically choose the best rare-quality level
|
|
80 gem of each color and use the value of that gem when calculating item
|
|
values. Most people will no longer ever need to manually set values
|
|
for red, yellow, or blue sockets.</li>
|
|
<li>There's now a new Gems tab in the Pawn UI. This tab shows you the
|
|
best rare-quality level 80 gems that are available for any of your scales.
|
|
Never again will you wonder which gems to have cut for that new boss drop.
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The Gems tab also displays suggested meta gems, but take these with a grain of
|
|
salt; Pawn ignores the special effects on the gem.</li>
|
|
<li>The Gems tab only considers rare-quality level 80 gems. I'll
|
|
add support for epic gems very soon in an upcoming Pawn update.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will now add a tooltip to the item socketing window displaying the
|
|
suggested gems to use when socketing that item for each of your scales.
|
|
In addition, the window now has a Pawn button that takes you directly to the
|
|
Gems tab for more details.</li>
|
|
<li>Meta sockets are now covered by two values instead of one: the old "Meta socket" value
|
|
is now "Meta: stats" and covers the normal stat bonuses from meta gems. The
|
|
new value is "Meta: effect" and covers the bonus effects from meta gems. Helms with an
|
|
empty meta socket will get the values from both added to their totals. Helms with a
|
|
filled meta socket will get the values of Meta: effect and the actual stats on the gem added
|
|
to their totals. This reflects the fact that stat-for-stat, helms with meta sockets are clearly
|
|
better than helms without them because of the added effects that meta gems bring.</li>
|
|
<li>Adjusted the value of MP5 in the default scale to correspond with current itemization.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed the Pawn feature to show item levels, as it is now built into the game.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the "Could not parse the item link" error that appeared when
|
|
clicking the links that items such as the Titanium Seal of Dalaran and Worn
|
|
Troll Dice add to chat.</li>
|
|
<li>Corrected the display of socket bonuses on weapons in the Compare tab.</li>
|
|
<li>(English) Enchant Boots: Greater Vitality now works again.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.13</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed the "attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'Dps' (a nil value)"
|
|
issue introduced by 1.1.12 relating to feral attack power calculations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.12</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Though it doesn't actually exist as a real weapon stat anymore, druids
|
|
can once again assign a value to feral attack power instead of weapon DPS if
|
|
they don't like multiplying by 14.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated Outfitter support to handle newer versions of Outfitter.
|
|
(If alternate outfit tooltips stop working for you, be sure to download the
|
|
latest version of Outfitter too.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.11</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When "show item levels" is enabled, you can now hover over the Pawn
|
|
button on your character sheet or an inspected player's character sheet to
|
|
get an estimate of that player's average item level in epic gear. For
|
|
example, an epic gear level of 200 means that the player is in full 10-man
|
|
Naxxramas gear; 213 means that the player is in full 25-man Naxxramas gear.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.10</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for Pawn values on Outfitter alternate-outfit tooltips.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where scales that used to have a value for colorless sockets
|
|
back when Pawn included them as a possible stat would show inaccurate values
|
|
if you had normalization turned on.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where armor penetration gems (like Fractured Scarlet Ruby)
|
|
didn't work in the English version.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Titanium Plating and Enchant Weapon: Accuracy.</li>
|
|
<li>Minor updates for colorblind mode in patch 3.1.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Removed the feral attack power stat entirely since it no longer exists
|
|
directly on weapons. (Feral druids should increase their value for
|
|
weapon DPS accordingly.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added compatibility with the mod tdItemTip.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>One more potential fix for the error that I worked on in the last
|
|
version.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed an issue where Pawn would in rare situations cause an error when it was
|
|
loaded for the first time for a character (either a new character, or a
|
|
character new to Pawn). Whether or not a given person would actually
|
|
experience this bug is essentially random. This is also reported to
|
|
have worked around game crashes that a few people were seeing.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Enchant Boots: Greater Vitality, and the hit rating
|
|
effect of Titanium Weapon Chain.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Feral druids and death knights rejoice! You can now assign
|
|
separate values to base armor (on cloth, cloaks, leather, mail, and plate) and bonus
|
|
armor (on weapons, trinkets, necklaces, rings, and enchantments).<ul>
|
|
<li>Please note that pre-Wrath items that had bonus armor (in green
|
|
text) will have the full armor value reported as base armor even though
|
|
some is bonus armor. There is currently no way for mods to tell
|
|
the difference.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the default values for the socket stats to more appropriate
|
|
values, assuming that you would use level 80 blue gems in them. Existing
|
|
scales will not be changed.</li>
|
|
<li>Support for colorless / prismatic sockets added by blacksmithing has
|
|
been removed. Since these sockets never appear on items normally, and
|
|
they are simply an interim stage (you'd never socket an item and then decide
|
|
not to put a gem in it), I decided it didn't make sense to assign values to
|
|
them. </li>
|
|
<li>The red text that appears after socketed jewelcrafter-only BoP gems that
|
|
says that they require jewelcrafting will no longer appear with an asterisk
|
|
(*).</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Enchant Boots: Icewalker.</li>
|
|
<li>Worked around a bug that could cause the Compare tab to stop working in
|
|
certain situations.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where, on the Compare tab, meta sockets would appear under
|
|
the "socket bonus" heading instead of the "sockets" heading.</li>
|
|
<li>Enchantments that are on enchanters' rings when you are not an enchanter
|
|
(the ones that appear in red) will no longer appear with asterisks (*).</li>
|
|
<li>Armor penetration rating on new Wrath of the Lich King items will now be
|
|
interpreted correctly.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>This is the patch 3.0 version of Pawn, and will not work properly on WoW
|
|
2.4.x. The stats Spell damage, Healing, Spell hit rating, Spell crit
|
|
rating, and Spell haste rating have all been removed. Spell damage and
|
|
Healing have been replaced with Spell power, and the three Spell combat
|
|
ratings have been combined into hybrid ratings that work for both casters
|
|
and non-casters. Pawn will update your scales automatically, but you
|
|
might want to check the values of those stats to make sure that they are in
|
|
line with what you'd expect.</li>
|
|
<li>Added stats that allow you to assign different values to different armor
|
|
types (such as plate, cloth, etc.).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for account-bound (gold-quality) items and more new things that appear in
|
|
WoW 3.0.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed an error message that could appear when using some item links from
|
|
sites like Wowhead.</li>
|
|
<li>Armor penetration works once more on WoW 3.0.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed Link Wrangler compatibility, which was broken in Pawn 1.1.</li>
|
|
<li>Items that have at least one recognized stat (normally marked with an
|
|
asterisk) will be marked as such in the Compare tab. (This feature
|
|
existed in 1.1 betas but did not appear in the final version.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Lake Wintergrasp items and the Scourgestone.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>This version of Pawn has been tested on both the live realms and on the Wrath of
|
|
the Lich King beta, and includes <i>tons</i> of fixes to make Pawn work
|
|
correctly on Wrath servers, and to support new stats and types of items that
|
|
appear in the expansion content, including new stats, new gems, encrypted
|
|
items, colorless sockets, and more.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now sports a new tab, Compare, which lets you see two items
|
|
side-by-side to compare their stats in more detail. Check it out!<ul>
|
|
<li>You can compare any two items in your inventory or a merchant's
|
|
inventory by dropping them in
|
|
the slots.</li>
|
|
<li>If the left slot is empty and you drop an item in the right slot,
|
|
your currently equipped item will automatically be put in the left slot.</li>
|
|
<li>In addition to dragging and dropping items, all of the following
|
|
shortcuts also work:<ul>
|
|
<li>Clicking either of the "currently equipped" shortcut buttons
|
|
that appear in the lower-left corner once there is an item in the
|
|
right slot.</li>
|
|
<li>Hovering over an item in your inventory, another player's
|
|
inventory, a vendor's inventory, an item link window, AtlasLoot, or
|
|
other locations, and pressing the "[" or
|
|
"]" key. (This key binding is customizable in the regular key
|
|
bindings interface.)</li>
|
|
<li>You can also right-click item link windows and item icons in
|
|
loot roll windows to immediately compare the item with your
|
|
currently equipped item.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The first time you run Pawn after upgrading to 1.1, Pawn will
|
|
automatically bind keys to its commands if you aren't using those keys for
|
|
other things. By default, "P" will open and close the Pawn UI, and "["
|
|
and "]" are used for item comparisons. If
|
|
you later unbind those keys or bind them to other actions, Pawn won't try to
|
|
rebind them.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where Pawn values didn't show up on item link windows if you
|
|
only had unenchanted numbers visible, not enchanted numbers.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where error text would appear in the chat window when
|
|
hovering over recipes in Ackis Recipe List and possibly other similar mods.</li>
|
|
<li>German users rejoice! When entering stat values you can now use a
|
|
comma instead of a period as a decimal separator—for example, "0,5" now
|
|
works in addition to "0.5".</li>
|
|
<li>In this version of Pawn, I've significantly reorganized a lot of the code that reads
|
|
and annotates item tooltips. This, coupled with other changes in Wrath
|
|
of the Lich King, is likely to cause some conflicts with other mods.
|
|
If you run into problems with Pawn, please remember to try to reproduce the
|
|
same problem with no other item-related mods installed. I still may be
|
|
able to fix the bug if it turns out that the bug is related to another mod,
|
|
but I need to know <i>which</i> mod to download and try.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.0.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug that would prevent Pawn from working properly if one or
|
|
more of your scales didn't assign a value to the spell damage stat.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the value of the armor penetration and spell penetration stats
|
|
in the default Pawn scale to match current itemization. Existing
|
|
scales are not changed.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer try to assign a default value to spell damage (WoW 2.4) if you use
|
|
a scale that contains only spell power (WoW 3.0).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.0.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added an entry in the Interface Options dialog to launch the Pawn UI, in
|
|
case you hide the Pawn button and forget how to get it back.</li>
|
|
<li>You can now assign a value to the Wrath of the Lich King "spell power"
|
|
stat to your scales. It uses the same values by default as the "spell
|
|
power" stat in Pawn 0.7.4, and your existing scales will be assigned a value
|
|
for the stat automatically. Your scales will still have spell damage
|
|
and healing stats in them, but they won't be used for anything.</li>
|
|
<li>In Wrath of the Lich King, the stats that currently appear as melee hit
|
|
rating, melee crit rating, and melee haste will also apply to spells, and
|
|
the spell hit, crit, and haste rating stats are not used. Existing
|
|
scales will not be modified at this time.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.0.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When Armory is installed, added support for showing unenchanted values
|
|
on the item comparison tooltips that appear when holding down the Alt key.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the stat-only components of Surefooted, Cat's
|
|
Swiftness, and Boar's Speed. (The run speed and snare resistance
|
|
effects are ignored since there are no Pawn stats for those.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where if you clicked a link for an item that had an icon and
|
|
then a link for a spell that did not have an icon, the item's icon would not
|
|
properly disappear.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug with reading certain items with multiple stats on the same
|
|
line that was causing problems with the French translation in progress.</li>
|
|
<li>Removed a bunch more asterisks from various items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.0.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>It's now possible to force Pawn to always calculate an item's value
|
|
based on the correct color of gems (Pawn 0.8 and older behavior) instead of
|
|
maximizing the item's value by potentially using the wrong colors and
|
|
ignoring the socket bonus (Pawn 0.9 and later behavior). To change the
|
|
option for one of your scales, choose that scale in the UI and then choose
|
|
one of the colored sockets from the stat list.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for socket bonuses (and possible future gems) that give
|
|
melee haste rating.</li>
|
|
<li>Added shaman healing scales based on the popular Elitist Jerks thread to
|
|
the sample scales document that comes with Pawn.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 1.0</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Restored compatibility with Link Wrangler, which stopped working in Pawn 0.9.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for showing Pawn values on Link Wrangler's "compare
|
|
equipped items" tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for showing inventory icons next to Link Wrangler
|
|
tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>There's now a "getting started" tab to gently remind new users to read
|
|
the Readme file.</li>
|
|
<li>Takes advantage of new WoW 2.4 functionality to show inventory icons
|
|
next to item link windows in a few situations where it couldn't before.</li>
|
|
<li>Various other UI and text tweaks.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.9</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn is now smarter about the way that it values sockets and socket
|
|
bonuses, which in some cases will slightly change the values of certain
|
|
items, both with and without gems.<ul>
|
|
<li>If you've already filled all of the sockets on an item and you don't
|
|
qualify for the socket bonus, Pawn no longer counts the socket bonus
|
|
stats, since they're not actually there.</li>
|
|
<li>If you can get a better value by socketing the wrong colors of gems
|
|
and ignoring the socket bonus, Pawn will now do that when calculating
|
|
item values. (When the "Show debug info" option is enabled, Pawn
|
|
will tell you which color gems it used.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now remembers all of the stats from several of the last items
|
|
you've viewed so it doesn't have to always recalculate them. This
|
|
should help your framerate when rapidly hovering over many items in
|
|
succession, especially when an equip compare mod is also installed.</li>
|
|
<li>You now have to type the word "delete" to confirm that you really want
|
|
to delete a scale.</li>
|
|
<li>You can now make a copy of an existing scale by clicking the new Copy
|
|
button.</li>
|
|
<li>There is now an option to hide a specific scale from tooltips without
|
|
having to delete it (and, most likely, export it and paste it somewhere for
|
|
safekeeping).</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will no longer look for stats on quest, spell, and ability links in
|
|
WoW 2.4.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bunch of UI bugs that occurred when deleting your last scale.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn no longer adds unnecessary asterisks to Black Temple instance-bound items, such as Naj'entus Spine.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Reckless Noble Topaz and other gems with spell haste
|
|
rating.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.8.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The Pawn UI now displays the current Pawn version number on the last
|
|
tab.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now supports addons that modify the Inspect window when it is first
|
|
shown instead of immediately upon login, such as Spyglass.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.8.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>You can now hover over the Pawn button on the inventory window to get a
|
|
grand total of the enchanted values on all of your equipped items.</li>
|
|
<li>There is now a disabled Pawn button on the inspect window that you can
|
|
hover over to get totals for all of another player's equipped items.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where all on/off options that defaulted to being on (show
|
|
enchanted values, show unenchanted values, and show tooltip icons) would
|
|
automatically turn back on after logging out and back in.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where sometimes disabling enchanted values would cause
|
|
unenchanted values to also not be displayed.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the word "Projectile" on stacks of arrows would get an
|
|
asterisk, and their DPS would not count as ranged DPS.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where negative values would not be exported in scale tags.
|
|
(Negative stat values are most common with weapon speed.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.8</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The Pawn UI now has an Options tab that you can use to set all Pawn
|
|
options.</li>
|
|
<li>Almost all of the Pawn slash commands are now unnecessary, and have been
|
|
removed. You can still use /pawn to open the Pawn UI, and /pawn debug
|
|
is still available as well.</li>
|
|
<li>Tooltips have been added to pretty much everything in the Pawn UI.</li>
|
|
<li>You can use the new calculation option "Normalize values" to divide all of your scale values by
|
|
the sum of all of the numbers in the scale. This causes Pawn to
|
|
generate the same sorts of numbers that Lootzor does. (See the
|
|
appropriate section in the readme file for more details.)</li>
|
|
<li>You can now change the text color for your scales individually from the
|
|
Pawn UI. You could, for example, make your healing scale show up in
|
|
white and your DPS scale show up in red.</li>
|
|
<li>You can now bind a key to the Pawn UI. Look under "Pawn" in the
|
|
standard key bindings list.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the Fiery Weapon enchantment; Pawn counts it as 4 dps.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where sometimes tooltip icons would not appear for items
|
|
that had never been in your inventory. (This includes most links in
|
|
trade chat.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where if you clicked on an item link for an item, and then a
|
|
tradeskill recipe (such as [Alchemy: Super Mana Potion]), the icon for the
|
|
previous item would stay since the recipe did not have one.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where if you had set custom colors for your scales, scales
|
|
would no longer always be sorted alphabetically by name on item tooltips.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.7.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn now shows inventory icons next to item link and item comparison
|
|
tooltips, so when someone links an item, you can also see its inventory
|
|
icon. You can turn this feature off with /pawn icons off.<ul>
|
|
<li>This feature works with the built-in WoW functionality, as well as a
|
|
variety of other tooltip mods: EquipCompare, EQCompare, and MultiTips.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>When /pawn ids on is active, Pawn now displays the item IDs of all
|
|
applicable enchantments and gems in the tooltip as well. For example,
|
|
if looking at item 123 with no enchantment and gems 45 and 67 socketed, you
|
|
would see "Item ID: 123:0:45:67".</li>
|
|
<li>You can now have Pawn align item values (and IDs and levels, if those
|
|
options are on) along the right side of the tooltip with /pawn align numbers
|
|
right. Some people may find this easier to read; others may find it
|
|
more difficult.</li>
|
|
<li>A new category of stats has been added, "weapon types," which is
|
|
primarily useful for racial abilities and talents.<ul>
|
|
<li>For example, orcs
|
|
get a passive 5 expertise bonus when using axes. So, you might give a
|
|
weapon a few bonus points just for being an axe. At level 70, 5
|
|
expertise costs 78.8 expertise rating, so you might value "being an axe"
|
|
as high as 78.8.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.7.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn plugins for FuBar and Titan Panel are now available as
|
|
separate downloads. You can get them at
|
|
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/8214/">Curse</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>The old "spell power" stat made sense before patch 2.3, but it was
|
|
particularly confusing to healers after that patch, so I've removed it, and
|
|
replaced it with easier-to-understand "spell damage". Now,
|
|
the healing stat only
|
|
includes healing, and the spell damage stat only includes spell damage.<ul>
|
|
<li>Now, Light's Justice, which says that it increases healing by 382
|
|
and damage by 128, has 382 healing and 128 spell damage, exactly as
|
|
you'd expect.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn will automatically upgrade your existing scales and any scale
|
|
tags that you import. Please double-check the value of the spell
|
|
damage stat after importing to make sure that it's what you intended,
|
|
as in this version Pawn does not read your mind.
|
|
The upgrade process will give correct results for typical cases (DPS
|
|
casters who don't care about healing; healers who valued spell power at
|
|
least as high as healing, as they should have), but may not give the
|
|
results you expect if you had a strange scale (healing but no spell
|
|
power).</li>
|
|
<li>As always, the default Pawn scale has been adjusted to accommodate
|
|
these changes.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>A new slash command /pawn enchanted has been added to let you turn off
|
|
the enchanted item values, showing only the unenchanted, unsocketed values
|
|
for items. (You can also use /pawn enchanted off along with /pawn
|
|
unenchanted off to temporarily hide all Pawn values.) This option may
|
|
not be compatible with all of your favorite tooltip mods, but it should work
|
|
in all cases where you currently get unenchanted item values today, which is
|
|
most everywhere.</li>
|
|
<li>The Pawn button has a new, unique look, instead of being a regular red
|
|
WoW button.</li>
|
|
<li>The Pawn button now appears in a more reasonable spot when the character
|
|
inventory window has been skinned using a mod such as Skinner.</li>
|
|
<li>A new slash command /pawn button has been added to let you move the Pawn
|
|
button on the inventory window, or hide it completely. (If you hide
|
|
the button, you'll need to type /pawn to open the Pawn UI, or use the
|
|
Pawn plugin for FuBar or Titan Panel.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added a new option to the /pawn asterisks slash command, /pawn asterisks
|
|
no text. Using this option is the same as /pawn asterisks auto, except
|
|
the "* Pawn gave no value to some stats" warning text is not added to
|
|
tooltips of items with at least one (*) unrecognized stat.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.7.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added a button to the inventory window to show and hide the Pawn
|
|
configuration UI.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now supports Armory and EquipCompare working together with the "/eqc
|
|
alt" option to show comparisons with your alt's gear instead of your current
|
|
character's.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the unusual items with negative stats, such as Kreeg's
|
|
Mug, which gives -10 Intellect.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Braided Eternium Chain and other non-weapon items with
|
|
weapon damage as an equip bonus. It shows up as minimum damage and
|
|
maximum damage, but not DPS—it's not a weapon, so there's no speed, and
|
|
therefore no DPS.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem that would frequently show up when using Pawn with
|
|
CowTip, causing an error message to appear in chat when hovering over an
|
|
item and then an empty inventory slot.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where sometimes an open item link window would not be
|
|
immediately updated upon making scale changes.</li>
|
|
<li>Minor changes to fix some issues when running a German version of Pawn
|
|
on the German WoW client.</li>
|
|
<li>Updated the samples scales document with newer versions of Emmerald's
|
|
feral combat models and ShadowPanther's AEP model, and added scales for
|
|
Malan's Elitist Jerks EP for shamans.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.7.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The special weapon DPS stats now work. I had broken them in either
|
|
0.7 or 0.7.1. Existing scales will automatically be corrected; you
|
|
should not need to re-enter values for those stats.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.7.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If the item link window is open when you make changes to your Pawn
|
|
scales, it will now be updated immediately, so you can see how your changes
|
|
will affect the value of the item.</li>
|
|
<li>Added spell hit rating and spell crit rating to the configuration UI.
|
|
(Oops!)</li>
|
|
<li>Corrected a typo in the description of the melee and ranged crit rating
|
|
stat.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.7</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Pawn now has a configuration UI! To access it, simply type /pawn
|
|
in the chat box. (To see the help information that used to be
|
|
available when you typed /pawn, type /pawn help, or click the /pawn commands
|
|
button in the configuration UI.) You should no longer need to manually edit your SavedVariables files
|
|
to configure Pawn.</li>
|
|
<li>The configuration UI is now the official way to make all changes to
|
|
your Pawn scales. Some of the slash commands that existed in
|
|
earlier versions of Pawn are gone, since they're no longer needed: /pawn
|
|
list, export, import, delete, rename.</li>
|
|
<li>Eliminated that bug where sometimes unenchanted values would
|
|
disappear from items after a while. The problem seemed to be most
|
|
commonly linked to use of the world map, but also could occur after zoning
|
|
or showing the interface options window.</li>
|
|
<li>Scales now appear in alphabetical order on item tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now works with tekKompare and LootLink.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where the value of resilience rating in the default Pawn
|
|
value scale was 0 instead of 1 as was intended. Scale tags that call resilience rating "Resilience" instead of "ResilienceRating"
|
|
will now be imported properly.</li>
|
|
<li>The value of ArmorPenetration in the default Pawn value scale is now
|
|
0.1, based on the latest information on WoWWiki.</li>
|
|
<li>Includes VgerCore 1.0.1.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.6.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for items in the guild bank vault.</li>
|
|
<li>In <i>some</i> cases, you can use mods that create fake item tooltips
|
|
like AtlasLoot and ItemSync along with mods that mangle item tooltips like
|
|
Rating Buster, and Pawn will now still work. No guarantees that your
|
|
favorite combination of mods won't break Pawn, but this should help a lot of
|
|
people out.</li>
|
|
<li>Finally fixed that bug where items with both durability and an Equip: or
|
|
Use: line that Pawn didn't understand would get asterisks on the wrong
|
|
lines. (For example, Stalker's Helm of Second Sight has this problem.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added the /pawn space command, which adds a blank space before the item
|
|
values it adds to tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>Added a special "stat" called SpeedBaseline. SpeedBaseline isn't an
|
|
actual item property, but rather a number to be subtracted from weapon
|
|
speeds before they're multiplied by your scale values. For example, if
|
|
you're an enhancement shaman who wants to give weapons 1 point for every 0.1
|
|
second of speed slower than 2.9, use Speed = 10 (1 / 0.1) and SpeedBaseline
|
|
= 2.9. Weapons slower than 2.9 would instead lose points at the same rate.</li>
|
|
<li>Adjusted the value of the FeralAp stat in the Pawn default scale from
|
|
0.5 to 0.4 so that feral items in 2.3 will have roughly the same values as
|
|
they did in 2.2 with the old Pawn default scale and so that the Pawn default
|
|
scale still roughly mimics item budget formulas. I do not necessarily
|
|
recommend that you change values in your own scales; your items have been
|
|
buffed, so it makes sense for their values to go up.</li>
|
|
<li>Weapon skill rating stats have been removed from Pawn and the default
|
|
Pawn scale, as they've been removed from the game in the patch.
|
|
Existing scales will not be automatically updated to use ExpertiseRating.</li>
|
|
<li>Added Pawn values to gems in the socketing UI.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the amount of healing and spell damage received from Teardrop
|
|
Tourmaline and possibly other gems that previously only gave healing.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for the new Chaotic Skyfire Diamond.</li>
|
|
<li>Now displays a more readable error message when the embedded mod
|
|
VgerCore is missing or failed to load.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed several problems introduced in 2.3:<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem that appeared in 2.3 due to the new way that set item
|
|
tooltips look where Pawn was putting asterisks all over the name of the set,
|
|
the items in the set, and the set bonuses.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem that appeared in 2.3 where stats on meta gems weren't
|
|
always being counted due to requirements now being displayed on gems even
|
|
when socketed.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug that appeared in 2.3 only where certain gems and random item
|
|
properties would appear very strange, such as "+45 Stamina|cfff1a1a1a", and
|
|
Pawn would not understand them.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.6.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a script error that appeared the first time a recipe was clicked
|
|
since logging in or resetting your UI.</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn now includes VgerCore 1.0 embedded within the mod; you don't need a
|
|
separate VgerCore folder in your AddOns folder.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.6.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Supports the 2.2.x live realms and the 2.3 PTRs.
|
|
(Healing-to-spell-damage and expertise require 2.3, of course.)</li>
|
|
<li>Support for the healing to spell damage conversion. Items that say
|
|
that they increase healing by 300 and spell damage by 100 will be reported
|
|
as Healing = 200, SpellPower = 100. Recall that SpellPower <i>includes</i>
|
|
healing, thus your scale's value for SpellPower should always be equal to or
|
|
greater than the value for Healing.</li>
|
|
<li>A new value of .255 was picked for the value of Healing in the default
|
|
scale, down from .455. With this value, items that had 1/3 of their
|
|
Healing converted to SpellPower (default value .855) in 2.3 will have the exact
|
|
same values in 2.3 that they did with the old scale in 2.2 (ignoring rounding errors). Of
|
|
course, you can and should customize your Pawn scales to fit your needs;
|
|
generally, healers should <i>not </i>adjust their scales to deal with this
|
|
change.</li>
|
|
<li>Support for the new ExpertiseRating stat, valued at 1 in the
|
|
default "Pawn value" scale, same as the existing weapon skill
|
|
stats. Existing scales will not be adjusted to include this stat.
|
|
If you haven't customized your scales and want to reset them, use /pawn resetscales.<ul>
|
|
<li>Weapon skill ratings are currently still supported so you can use
|
|
Pawn 0.6.1 on the live realms too. They'll be removed in a later
|
|
version.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Support for many more healing enchantments, inscriptions, spellthread,
|
|
and so forth.</li>
|
|
<li>Craftable items for which you can learn recipes from trainers will now
|
|
get Pawn values.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.6</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem introduced in beta 1 where Pawn would display
|
|
an error message in the chat window whenever hovering over a ring with
|
|
Enchant Ring - Weapon Might.</li>
|
|
<li>Added the ability to customize the colors that your scales will use when
|
|
printed. For example, you could have your DPS value show up in orange,
|
|
and your healing value show up in green. This is an advanced feature
|
|
that probably will never get its own UI or slash command. See the
|
|
section titled "Changing the color of a scale" for more information.</li>
|
|
<li>Importing a scale tag that has the exact same name as a scale you
|
|
already have will update the old scale to match the values in the scale tag.
|
|
All of the values in the old scale will be deleted. (In previous
|
|
versions, Pawn would just fail and warn you that you can't overwrite an
|
|
existing scale. There is no longer a warning.)</li>
|
|
<li>Weapon stats have been overhauled! Old scales will work, but now
|
|
advanced users have a variety of new options for assigning values to
|
|
weapons.</li>
|
|
<li>New stats: MeleeMinDamage, MeleeMaxDamage, MeleeSpeed, MeleeDps,
|
|
MainHandMinDamage, MainHandMaxDamage, MainHandSpeed, MainHandDps,
|
|
OffHandMinDamage, OffHandMaxDamage, OffHandSpeed, OffHandDps,
|
|
OneHandMinDamage, OneHandMaxDamage, OneHandSpeed, OneHandDps,
|
|
TwoHandMinDamage, TwoHandMaxDamage, TwoHandSpeed, TwoHandDps,
|
|
RangedMinDamage, RangedMaxDamage, RangedSpeed, RangedDps. Generally,
|
|
you'll only use a few of these, and not give values to all of them.</li>
|
|
<li>New stats: MinDamage, MaxDamage, Speed. If you don't care about
|
|
which slot or weapon type it is, just use MinDamage, MaxDamage, Speed,
|
|
and/or Dps. Dps is now calculated to full precision (say, 41.333
|
|
instead of 41.3) instead of rounded to one decimal place.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for weapon damage enchantments (Striking and Impact).</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for ranged weapon scopes.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem where certain items with suffixes would show unusually low unenchanted
|
|
values (their stats would be read as 0). For example, Chimaerascale Legguards of the Bandit
|
|
exhibited this problem.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Black Morass instance-bound items (beacons).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.5.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for haste rating and spell haste rating, which were added as passive
|
|
item bonuses on Black Temple equipment. (Iron Counterweight is also supported.) These two
|
|
stats (HasteRating, SpellHasteRating) are valued at 1 each on the default Pawn scale; existing
|
|
Pawn scales won't be affected. Use /pawn resetscales to delete all of your scales and replace them
|
|
with the default one.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for armor penetration ("Your attacks ignore X of your opponent's armor").
|
|
This stat (ArmorPenetration) is not valued in the default Pawn scale.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Karazhan, Stratholme, and Tempest Keep instance-bound items.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.5.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for the new gold profession recipe links in WoW 2.1.
|
|
(Pawn won't try to read them or put asterisks all over them.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.5.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added working support for the Savagery weapon enchantment, and untested support
|
|
for Potency, Soulfrost, and Sunfire.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for EquipCompare 2.10. (This may break compatibility
|
|
with older versions of EquipCompare; please use the latest version.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.5.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Updated for WoW patch 2.1.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Blizzard's new Currently Equipped functionality
|
|
(shift-hover an item).</li>
|
|
<li>LinkWrangler support.</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed a bug where stats in certain situations (gems with multiple stats
|
|
on one gem, socket bonuses, etc.) wouldn't get shown in the /pawn debug on
|
|
output. This did not affect calculation; it was just a debug display error.</li>
|
|
<li>Expanded the amount of information Pawn returns in the debug output.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for Enchant Boots: Vitality.</li>
|
|
<li>Slightly updated a few of the default "Pawn value" scale's numbers.
|
|
This will not affect existing scales, even if you haven't changed any of the
|
|
defaults. If you want to get the new scale, you can wipe out your
|
|
existing scale(s) with /pawn resetscales.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.5</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Requires VgerCore 0.4. (This is included with the mod. Pawn will warn you if you
|
|
are using an older version of VgerCore.)</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn can now show unenchanted values for items in addition to the
|
|
regular enchanted values, and this is enabled by default. You can turn
|
|
it off with /pawn unenchanted off. This feature only works for real
|
|
tooltips, and not fake tooltips from an item database mod.</li>
|
|
<li>Added an option to control the number of digits of precision Pawn uses
|
|
to display item values in tooltips. By default this is 1 ("3.1"), but
|
|
you can set it to any number between 0 ("3") and 4 ("3.1416") with /pawn
|
|
digits #.</li>
|
|
<li>Corrected the value of frost resistance in the default Pawn scale to 1
|
|
(was 4).</li>
|
|
<li>Pawn scale tags now have spaces inside of the parentheses by default.
|
|
This is to prevent certain scale tags from turning into emoticons when
|
|
posted to certain forums. (For example, if your scale tag ended in "RedSocket=8)",
|
|
the 8) would turn into an emoticon on certain forums.) Old and current
|
|
versions of Pawn will accept the scale with or without the extra spaces. </li>
|
|
<li>Lots of work was done to prepare for Pawn translations into other languages.
|
|
I may have made a mistake in this conversion and introduced cases where (*)
|
|
shows up where they didn't before; hopefully not.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.4.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added support for gun, bow, and crossbow skill ratings.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for MultiTips.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for items that list stats as "Stat +X" instead of "+X
|
|
Stat", namely the epic gems. Gems that only provided primary stats,
|
|
such as Seer's Chrysoprase, already worked, but others such as Rune Covered
|
|
Chrysoprase didn't work until this change.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Added scale tags! Scale tags are chunks of text that you can use
|
|
to share Pawn scales with friends, guildmates, and others on forums, similar
|
|
to how you can share talent specs today by passing around a link to the WoW
|
|
talent calculator. You can copy a scale tag and then post it on your
|
|
guild forums, and then another player can copy that tag and paste it into
|
|
their game to automatically add your scale to their copy of Pawn, without
|
|
logging out of the game or changing files in Notepad. To export a
|
|
scale tag so you can share it with others, use the /pawn export command.
|
|
To import someone else's scale tag and add it to your own scales, use the
|
|
/pawn import command.</li>
|
|
<li>Added new slash commands: /pawn list, export, import, delete, and
|
|
rename. See "Slash commands" in Readme.htm for more details.</li>
|
|
<li>Added support for weapon skill ratings (including unarmed and feral
|
|
combat). (They have been added to the default Pawn scale, but if you
|
|
care about weapon skill ratings you must add them to your custom scales
|
|
manually.)</li>
|
|
<li>Fixed the /pawn resetscales command so that it would delete all of your
|
|
scales before recreating the default one named Pawn value, as was intended.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.3.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Hovering over an enchanted Item X immediately after hovering over an
|
|
unenchanted Item X will now recalculate the values for the second item
|
|
instead of just displaying the ones for the first item. This should
|
|
work for all pairs of items that differ only by enchantments and gems.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.3</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>To read statistics, Pawn now makes a copy of the tooltip and reads from
|
|
that whenever possible, which allows it to read tooltips that have been
|
|
mangled by other mods. Examples of mods that do this are Mendeleev and
|
|
Rating Buster. (Certain mods that use custom tooltips, such as
|
|
ItemSync, don't support this; Pawn may still conflict with mods that modify
|
|
those custom tooltips.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.2.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>ItemSync support, including using ItemSync with AtlasLoot. Pawn
|
|
will calculate and display values for ItemSync's tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>EQCompare support. Pawn will calculate and display values for
|
|
EQCompare's tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>Item level display should work just about everywhere now, instead of
|
|
just in certain places. (In previous versions, it worked for inventory
|
|
items, but not chat item links. Now it works on both.)</li>
|
|
<li>A new option has been added to display the item ID for items you come
|
|
across, /pawn ids on.</li>
|
|
<li>The default is now to hide the asterisks (*) from items that don't have
|
|
any values for any of your scales. So, for example, Hearthstone and
|
|
potions won't display the asterisk. You can change this behavior using
|
|
/pawn asterisks [ on | auto | off ].</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.2.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Fixed a problem in 0.2 where Pawn wouldn't work if you'd never used
|
|
version 0.1 before.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.2</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>EquipCompare support. Pawn will calculate and display values for
|
|
EquipCompare's tooltips.</li>
|
|
<li>AtlasLoot support. Pawn will calculate and display values for
|
|
instance drops when Atlas and AtlasLoot are installed.</li>
|
|
<li>Outfitter support. Pawn will no longer conflict with the lines
|
|
that Outfitter adds to tooltips of items used in one or more gear sets.</li>
|
|
<li>MonkeyQuest support. I haven't actually observed it happening in
|
|
the past, but this change should prevent MonkeyQuest's item tooltip
|
|
annotations from affecting Pawn.</li>
|
|
<li>MobInfo-2 support. Pawn will no longer conflict with the drop rate
|
|
information that MobInfo-2 adds to items. (This problem manifested
|
|
itself both as unnecessary asterisks added to tooltips, and also as an
|
|
"attempted to concatenate a nil value" error.)</li>
|
|
<li>Added APIs to create and change Pawn scales while you're still logged
|
|
in. These will eventually be used to build a configuration UI.
|
|
If you <i>really</i> want to, you can use them from the chat box to change
|
|
Pawn scales while logged into the game.</li>
|
|
<li>Included a new file "Sample scales.htm" containing (you guessed it) some
|
|
sample scales that you can use to get started creating your own. I'll add to this
|
|
over time.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Version 0.1</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The first released beta version of Pawn. The code is stable and
|
|
the remaining bugs are mostly just to-do items. I'll get around to
|
|
them eventually.</li>
|
|
<li>Not heavily optimized for performance.</li>
|
|
<li>No configuration UI. (Hope you like Notepad!)</li>
|
|
</ul>
