There is nothing wrong with EQCompare, at least not if you use that version.
It includes more updates, but that was today. And I just posted an improvement because I hoped somebody could update the SVN with that :D

I can see EQCompare was updated to 25207
I still get the

blah blah has been blocked from an action only available to the blizzard UI

when I try to use this macro:

/cast [equipped:wand] Shoot;[equipped:relic] Major Spellstone

I do not get this error when EQCompare is disabled.

Back to EquipCompare :/

Same thing happens with r25921

I get the exact same error with the Wand/Spellstone macro, with ClosetGnome_Banker.

For some reason I'm not seeing the comparison tooltip when I mouse over an item in my bags (I'm using MyBags). I've checked with a /eqcompare that the addons is active, so I have no idea why that's happening. Is someone having the same issue?

I have also observed this using equipped: argument in a macro.

macro:

/castsequence [equipped:Vengeance of the Illidari] reset=90 Vengeance of the Illidari,Glowing Crystal Insignia; Glowing Crystal Insignia

result:

Looking at the FrameXML here's what I have so far...

equipped: is handled on line 1032:

equipped = function(target, ...)
for i=1, select("#", ...) do
local type = select(i, ...);
if ( IsEquippedItemType(type) ) then
return true;
end
end
end,

taint checker did indicate that INVTYPE_THROWN was tainted (a constant?)

EQCompare-1.4\EQCompare.lua:383: in function <Interface\AddOns\EQCompare\EQCompare.lua:340>
(tail call): ?:

I got this error in EQCompare tonight. I don't know what I was doing at the time because I've got my bugsack muted, and I have popups turned off.

I would love to see EQCompare honor the icons added to the tooltip via ID Card, etc. Or add that functionality itself. Right now I have to click a link to see the icon. I miss seeing the icon on hover.

Is this mod still being maintained?

a feature request: I'd love to see the itemlevel in the comparison frame, makes it easier to decide which item to keep.

Macro:
#showtooltip Major Spellstone
/cast [modifier:alt] Create Spellstone
/stopmacro [modifier:alt]
/cast [equipped:wand] Shoot; Master Spellstone

Doesn't appear that this addon is still being developed. :(

So did I. ^^

It's does not have as many functions as some other Compare-addons do have, but it does all I want.

Thanks Tekkub. :)

Yea yea, you whiners are getting your hover tips to looks like :P However the pissyfit that one person threw on WoWI over the modifier keys has convinced me not to implement that one.

*points at current SVN version*

Haha that's awesome :)

There's a method on how to do it two posts below that guy anyway...

Although I couldn't get tekcompare to show an extra tooltip on all tooltips for some reason, mainly just text links. *shrugs* back to eqcompare, it's not erroring out for me anyway, so there's not much reason to change :P. I just like changing my mods frequently ^^

What tips aren't showing up? tK doesn't support other mod's tips, just the GameTooltip, which most mods *should* be using to display item info anyway.

Call me stupid, but I can't find it on the SVN in branchs or trunk ^^.

Nevermind, wrong SVN. Found it.
