Question - Link item using macro

[Ionis]

Recently tinkered with ninjadvloot to rot items but I was wondering if there was a way to link items in chat? For instance, I have ninjadvloot set up currently to send tells to certain folks if an item is rotting but it doesn't link the item, it just uses the name stored in a variable. Is there a way to actually link the item in place of the name? Something that uses the item TLO maybe? Or a way to open a specific ItemDisplayWindow and /notify on the item's icon?


Any tips/solution is much appreciated, thanks!

I'm writing on a guide on this now.

You need:

Utility - MQ2LinkDB

MQ2LinkDB - This plugin allows you to access links for (hopefully) every item. It stores links in a database and you may call them up manually or via hotkeys, macros or plugins. Installation: In-game, load the plugin with /plugin mq2linkdb...

www.redguides.com

and
https://www.redguides.com/community/resources/mq2itemdb-required-items-txt-file.1720/ (this is updated daily, despite it saying last updated in September)

Much of the setup for the plugin is no longer needed, you just need to grab the items.txt and import then you're ready.

${LinkDB[=Wurmslayer]}

edit: ok, updated the guide. Please check out mq2linkdb for instructions

Using the variable in Ninjadvloot, ${LinkDB[=${ITPName}]} worked like a charm!

Thanks man, really appreciate it.
