<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>Divisor</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="VgerCore/VgerCore.css" /> </head> <body> <h1>Divisor</h1> <p> Divisor shows you how much each item in a stack costs at the auction house. For example, if there were 5 crystallized fire available for a 12g 50s buyout, Divisor would inform you that each crystallized fire would cost you 2g 50s, and that 10 of them would cost you 25g.</p> <h2> Installing Divisor</h2> <p> Divisor is installed like pretty much every other World of Warcraft mod on the planet. Extract the contents of the zip file to your Add-ons folder, generally located here:</p> <p class="codeblock"> <code>C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons</code></p> <h2>Trying out Divisor</h2> <p>To try out Divisor, visit an auction house, and search for something that's typically sold in stacks. For example, try searching for "healing potion". Then, hover over the price of any stack of healing potions (more than one). Divisor will tell you the per-unit cost in a tooltip on the right. There's nothing you need to do to turn on Divisor or configure it; when it's installed, it's working.</p> <p>The numbers you see may occasionally be a little different from what you're expecting. The most likely cause for this is that Divisor automatically factors the minimum bid increment into the calculations. Take this example: Let's say there are 2 Arcane Tomes for sale, at a price of 28g 1s, or 29g buyout. You may initially expect Divisor to tell you that the bid for 1 would be 14g 50c, since that's half of 28g 1s. However, someone has already bid the minimum on these, so you'd have to increase the bid to at least 29g 41s, 5% more than the current price. That's more than the buyout. So, Divisor doesn't even display a minimum bid amount, and just displays "Buyout 15g 50s". Since you probably installed Divisor to help you get better deals on odd-sized stacks of items, it's showing you the exact per-unit amount it would cost you to either bid the least amount possible, or buy the item outright.</p> <p>Certain items are mostly useful in stacks. This includes the various primal motes (Mote of Fire), enchanting lesser essences (Lesser Astral Essence), and rep items (Sanguine Hibiscus). For some of these items, in addition to the single item price, Divisor will tell you the cost to buy a stack of them. The stack size depends on the item—enchanting essences "stack" to 3 (even though a stack technically holds more than 3), motes "stack" to 10, since that's how many it takes to make a primal, and so forth.</p> <h2>Slash commands</h2> <p>Divisor supports a few slash commands that you can type into chat to customize Divisor.</p> <h3>Adding a new item to be stacked</h3> <p>Divisor automatically gives you individual prices for all items in the auction house, and stacked prices for certain items. For example, if someone were selling 3 Mote of Fire, Divisor would show you the price for 1 Mote of Fire, as well as 10 Mote of Fire. If you want to add your own items for Divisor to show stack prices, you can use the /divisor stack command.</p> <p class="codeblock"> <code>/divisor stack <i>number [item]<br /> </i>/divisor stack 20 [Netherweave Cloth]<br /> /divisor stack 20 Silk Cloth</code></p> <ul> <li>The stack size must be at least 2. (Divisor always shows you prices for individual items.)</li> <li>The item can either be simply the name of an item, or an item link that you've shift-clicked. In the above example, you could get Divisor to show you prices of Netherweave in stacks of 20 if you typed "/divisor stack 20" and then shift-clicked on a stack of Netherweave.</li> <li>If you already have a stack size set for that item, using the command again will change the stack size to the new one.</li> </ul> <h3>Removing stacking for an item</h3> <p>You can undo the effects of the /divisor stack command by using the /divisor unstack command.</p> <p class="codeblock"> <code>/divisor unstack <i>[item]<br /> </i>/divisor unstack [Netherweave Cloth]<br /> /divisor unstack Silk Cloth</code></p> <ul> <li>Rules for what's allowed for the item name are exactly as in the /divisor stack command.</li> <li>You can also use this to remove stacking for items that came pre-stacked. For example, you could use this command on Mote of Fire, which Divisor stacks to 10 by default.</li> </ul> <h3>Resetting all Divisor options</h3> <p>If you've really screwed up and want to go back to the default Divisor options, you can use /divisor reset.</p> <p class="codeblock"> <code>/divisor reset</code></p> <ul> <li>This deletes all of your custom stack sizes. You'll need to reenter them all again if you reset your Divisor options.</li> </ul> <h3>Listing all of your stack sizes</h3> <p>You can see all of the stack sizes you have set (as well as all of the ones that came with Divisor) using the /divisor list stacks command.</p> <p class="codeblock"> <code>/divisor list stacks</code></p> <h2>Notes</h2> <h3>Contacting the author</h3> <p>I welcome your feedback. The best way to contact me is through the Divisor page on <a href="https://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/divisor.aspx" target="_blank"> Curse</a>, or on <a href="https://facebook.com/vgermods">Facebook</a>. Also, check out my <a target="_blank" href="https://www.vgermods.com/">official site</a>, with links to my other mods.</p> <h3>Reporting bugs</h3> <p>When reporting bugs, it's helpful to be as specific as possible. By default, WoW hides mod error information from you. Enabling "Show Lua Errors" in Interface Options would be helpful; the error text includes useful information about where the error occurred. Installing a mod like <a href="http://auctioneeraddon.com/dl/" target="_blank">Swatter</a> can provide even more useful error information that can help Vger track down the bug.</p> <h2>Known problems</h2> <ul> <li>Divisor does not work properly with Auctioneer when Compact UI is enabled (the default). It's not really useful if you have Auctioneer anyway.</li> <li><i>See the "future versions" section for things that aren't necessarily bugs but I might improve someday.</i></li> </ul> <h2>Release history</h2> <h3>Version 1.1.8</h3> <ul> <li><b>With the new auction house in WoW 8.3, this addon no longer has any purpose on retail, and I recommend uninstalling it.</b> But, it's still useful on WoW Classic, so I'll leave it available for download.</li> <li>Fixed a bug where Divisor prevented battle pet tooltips from appearing.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1.7</h3> <ul> <li>Gold amounts greater than 999 will now appear with thousandths separators in locales that use them. (For example, in English, "12,345".)</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1.6</h3> <ul> <li>Fixed a bug where Divisor's tooltip didn't respect the UI Scale setting.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1.5</h3> <ul> <li>Updated for patch 4.3.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1.4</h3> <ul> <li>Updated for Cataclysm. Use "/divisor reset" to get new stack sizes for Cataclysm enchanting materials if you've used Divisor in the past.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1.3</h3> <ul> <li>Fixed a problem that started occurring in a recent patch where after using the auction house, action bars would sometimes stop working. (Ouch.)</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1.2</h3> <ul> <li>Fixed a bug where crazy-negative values would show up for already-sold items on the auctions tab.</li> <li>Fixed a bug where the Divisor tooltip wouldn't disappear if you moved your mouse off an auction item to the left.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1.1</h3> <ul> <li>Fixed a bug where the last item on the Bid and Auction tabs wouldn't get a Divisor tooltip. (Browse only shows 8 items; the other two tabs show 9, but only the top 8 would get a Divisor tooltip.)</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.1</h3> <ul> <li>Updated for patch 3.0.</li> <li>Now works on all three tabs (Browse, Bid, Auctions).</li> <li>Added various Northrend items (Crystallized Life, Lesser Cosmic Essence, ...) to the list of items that Divisor will automatically show stack prices for, but to get them, you must use "/divisor reset" and clear out any custom stacks that you may have set, if any.</li> <li>Divisor now uses icons for gold, silver, and copper instead of the letters g, s, and c respectively.</li> <li>Divisor now has an entry in Interface Options in case you forget how to type "/divisor".</li> <li>Divisor's tooltip now also appears if you hover over the item's icon or the time remaining display.</li> <li>Divisor disables the built-in Blizzard auction UI price per item feature.</li> <li>Removed the "Divisor is loaded" message that was shown upon logging in.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.0.1</h3> <ul> <li>Added more stacked items.</li> <li>Now displays a more readable error message when the embedded mod VgerCore is missing or failed to load.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 1.0</h3> <ul> <li>Divisor is now at version 1.0! It includes VgerCore 1.0 embedded in the mod, so you don't need a separate VgerCore folder in your AddOns folder.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 0.2</h3> <ul> <li>Added Divisor slash commands, and the ability to set custom stack sizes for any item you like.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 0.1.3</h3> <ul> <li>More rep items added.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 0.1.2</h3> <ul> <li>More reputation-only items were added, such as Savage Frond, to the list of items that will show both single prices and stack prices.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 0.1.1</h3> <ul> <li>Divisor now gives you stack prices for a small selection of items, such as motes and lesser enchanting essences, as well as the single item prices.</li> <li>When you hover over an item that you're currently winning, Divisor now shows "Your bid" instead of "Minimum bid" and doesn't factor in the minimum increment.</li> <li>The /divisor slash command works now. It doesn't do anything other than tell you to read the readme, but someday it will be more useful, and it won't give you an error anymore.</li> <li>Divisor will now properly check the version of VgerCore that you have installed. Currently, 0.4.1 is required.</li> </ul> <h3>Version 0.1</h3> <ul> <li>First release of Divisor.</li> </ul> <h2>Future versions</h2> <ul> <li>I'm considering adding an option to turn off the feature that hides values from the tooltip when they're the same stack size as the item for sale. For example, when 1 mote of fire is sold, the tooltip only shows the prices for 10 motes of fire, instead of both 1 and 10, which is what you see if you hover over 5 of them. Some people might find this distracting. (However, nobody's really complained yet.)</li> </ul> <h2>The fine print</h2> <p>© 2007-2022 Travis Spomer.
