About MonkeySpeed:

The MonkeySpeed AddOn for World of Warcraft displays your player's current speed as a percentage of run speed. Because the configuration variables are saved per character per realm, you can hide MonkeySpeed for your characters that don't need it. This mod is great for hunters who might need a little reminder to turn on aspect of the cheetah.

Features:

  • Displays speed in %
  • Displays speed as a color
  • Option to set the frame width
  • Option to lock the frame
  • Right clicking opens up MonkeyBuddy, if installed
  • Per character per realm saved config settings

Slash Commands:

See included ReadMe.txt for slash commands or use MonkeyBuddy to configure your MonkeySpeed.

    Please delete all MonkeySpeed files in your WTF folder before updating!

    Also whats strange is every time i change zones like Terokkar Forest --> Shadowmoon Valley...
    My speed on my Epic Flight goes from ~418% (riding crop) to ~7900-8200%????

    So then i have to land. take off all my speed trinkets... recalibrate and then fly off again

    Does the % still change if you calibrated Terokkar Forest and Shadowmoon Valley, and change between these zones? If not, everything is working normally. The next version will have accurate default speed calibrations, but you will have to delete your MonkeySpeed files in your WTF file to be able to get them.

    Addon can save options across all characters conveniently, if anyone needs it. Speed data remains unaffected because saved separately it seems. Edit MonkeySpeedInit.lua, comment out a line and add a modification.

    MonkeySpeed.m_strPlayer = "Realm".."|".."Player";
    --MonkeySpeed.m_strPlayer = GetCVar("realmName").."|"..MonkeySpeed.m_strPlayer;

    As of May 31 2007, my tests with MonkeySpeed have shown this:

    I used /mscalibrate while running to set normal run speed to 100%.

    Run: 100% Epic Mount: 200%

    Epic Mount + Carrot: 206% Epic Mount + Spurs: 208% Epic Mount + Glove Enchant: 204% Epic Mount + All 3 Combined: 218%

    Epic Mount + Riding Crop: 220% Epic Mount + Crop+Carrot+Spurs+Enchant: 220%

    This shows that Riding Crop is superior to the other speed enhancers and that they don't stack. Just use the Crop, keep the others in your bank box or throw them away.

    Flying Mount: 160% Flying Mount + Crop: 176%

    Epic Flying Mount: 380% Epic Flying Mount + Crop: 418%

    By the way, Meta socket gems that increase run speed are very nice. They don't affect riding speed though:

    Run: 100% Run + Meta: 108% Epic Mount: 200% Epic Mount + Meta: 200%

    For some reason, this isn't mentioed in the readme:

    Hit autorun, type /mscalibrate and it will set your speed to 100%. Remove all speed enhancement items first. Works fine for me now. So far...

    @ maldian, i think you also have to instal monkey buddy.

    Actually, that wasn't the problem. I am using Titan Bars, with the bars on the upper boarder of my screen. Usually addons show themselves in the center of the screen(by default) - but it took a fair few /mspeed toggles for me to notice it was neatly being toggled on and off, tucked behind my titan bars.

    So for those who might not see it on first go, try turning off all your screen-space-using addons and find your monkeyspeed bar, log out (so it saves the addon's position), and then turn your addons back on. Should work fine from there.

    If you find yourself still looking for it, try looking in your Account/[ServerName]/[CharacterName]/layout-cache .txt file, and you'll find MonkeySpeed's coordinates n stuff there (so long as you've logged out once after installation for WoW to update its files), you could fiddle with the X and Y values until the addon pops on an accessible area of your screen.

    I installed this addon and got absolutely nothing. I know it must be installed because the slash commands don't give me the Type '/help'... error, but I get absolutely nothing. No new visible frame or bar anywhere, no text feedback, nothing. Any idea what the issue might be?

  • Feb. 3, 2007, 03:51PM (1 year, 5 months ago)

    Can you please update the addon? I really dont think i have 8100% speed while walking and 171% speed with epic mount + Mithril spurs, Carrot, Glove speed enchant and Riding Crop (New TBC speed trinket). I want to know my exact speed with flying and normal epic mount. So i would be really grateful if you updated this addon.

    @BuddhaBuddy

    With these changes you can recalibrate correctly:

    First in MonkeySpeedSlash.lua you need to change

    function MonkeySpeedSlash_CmdCalibrate()

    to

    function MonkeySpeedSlash_CmdCalibrate(cmd)

    then somewhere in the function add

    if tonumber(cmd) then MonkeySpeed.calibrateSpeed = tonumber(cmd)/100; else MonkeySpeed.calibrateSpeed = 1; end

    finally, in monkeyspeed.lua change lines 178 and 180 to the following:

    MonkeySpeedConfig.m_ZoneBaseline2[zonenum].rate = (MonkeySpeed.m_fSpeedDist / MonkeySpeed.m_iDeltaTime) / MonkeySpeed.calibrateSpeed;

    MonkeySpeedConfig.m_ZoneBaseline1[zonenum].rate = (MonkeySpeed.m_fSpeedDist / MonkeySpeed.m_iDeltaTime) / MonkeySpeed.calibrateSpeed;

    After this, you can use /mscalibrate 108 while running and it will display the correct running speed. By the way MonkeySpeed 3.0 will have updated variables used for the speed calculation, too.

    In regards to recalibrate, my Pally has Persuit of Justice, which grants 8% speed bonus. I can't turn it off to recalibrate. Is there some way to make recalibrate take speed bonus talents into account?

  • Sept. 22, 2006, 06:39PM (1 year, 9 months ago)

    Swift Mount 200% Swift Mount w/ Carrot, Spurs, +Riding enchant 219%

    My favorites are Druid, Feline swiftness, 4piece PVP set bonus Cat 150% Cat w/ Dash 184% Travel form 161%

    So if you are ever trying to catch a druid...unless you are already mounted, Good luck :p
