Release MQ2AutoLoot

[drawthow]

Does your SK have MQAutoLoot loaded and turned on?

Yes Autoloot running on all characters

 

[plure]

Suggestion, a way to sort for tradeskills - Maybe a category for each tardeskill so you can mark them like "smithing" so that we could do commands like give all "smithing" to player, or despoit in bank etc

I understand the idea behind this, but this seems like a use case that would best be handled by a macro.

All pointing to the same loot.ini? I'm also assuming no advloot filters for this item.

Yes all pointing to the same in and no advloot filters for the problem item. They have a few filters for other things.

When I make adjustments to my loot.ini on the fly I always do a /bcga //autoloot reload so my group are all singing off the same song sheet

Hummmm I got something I have been working on that you might want to look at. It involves MQ2AutoLoot and MQ2MyButtons.

If this is at all complicated lets take it to PM.

If you change any of the MQ2AutoLoot variables that is a good idea. It isn't necessary for loot entries though, as those are read from the loot.ini file when the item drops.

Is your SK your ML or just another in the group?

SK was the ML

SK was the ML

I think I may know what happened. When I created the entry I put it at the top of the ini in the [A] section, thinking that autosort would get it stuck in the correct place. But after looking in the INI it's at the bottom of the [A] section and there is an entry in the bottom of the with Student's Log=Quest|1.

So if my thinking is correct if you add an item manually and do not put it with the correct letter section ( in this case) the autoloot will not see it and create a new item in the correct letter area.

Itemsort Macro will sort you out bud. This does exactly hat you want.

Glad you solved it!

It is always helpful when people come back and post what the issue was, someone might find it helpful in a future when they run into a similar issue.

Autoloot is asking me to confirm some no drop. Anyone else running into this issue?

Can you post or PM a screen shot please?

Also what is the date of your compile that you are using?

I logged out for a bit then back on and it seems to work fine again now. Kinda odd that it would fix itself without me doing anything. If it happens again I will screenshot and post it.

Just within the last few days when using autoloot (character IS the master looter in the group). I have changed zero settings, but the advanced loot window stays like this, its like the plugin never actually loots the items. I am having to manually click the Need column, and even after that it waits until it does the roll ingame before it loots anything. It used to keep this window clear and I never had to interact with the loot window at all

 

[TVCChiver]

I've tried unloading and reloading the plugin, creating a new ini, still is doing the same thing as above.

uncheck the need/greed boxes and then do /autoloot turn on

you appear to have "apply filters" checked - uncheck that

I tried both what you and @SA_krycek had suggested and when I did both of those, it is still leaving all the items in the advanced loot window, and it then auto selected greed for everything in the loot window. It said it set the items to Keep in the database (I deleted my old ini incase it was bugged somehow and restarted fresh).

Anyway to make it so autoloot gives these no trade to the specific class(rogue in this case)? Would the gear suffix works here?

 

[wymranar]

@plure per your suggestion I went through and just deleted my eq advloot filters. Now, mq2autoloot handles everything and I'm very satisfied.

One question though, If i want each of my characters to have an item that's lore, do I put:

item=Keep

then, would the ML loot it, but since it's lore, then pass out subsequent items to the rest of the group?

OR

item=quest|1

Which one of these designations should I use if I want each character to have 1 of a lore item?

 

[Zebadiah]

I would go with the Quest=1 so everyone would get one... The only problem with this setting is that if the group gets rid of the item then you might have to go and get it 6 more times till the right one get it.

Either will do what you want. Keep is technically more appropriate to your scenario of a random lore item.

thanks everyone

Yes the gear tag would work for this case. Assuming you don't run multiple rogues in the group.

I'm 85% sure you will have to manually enter it though, rather then just use the "/setitem gear" command.

 

[Sungazer]

ok, so im having an issue, and i think it may be autoloot related.

i dont use autoloot, im fine with advanced loot ingame, but i noticed this morning that im not looting anything at all, its all dropping onto corpses. so figurng it probably something to do with autoloot, i disabled it in the plugin manager, but im still having this issue. nothing is coming up in the in game autoloot window at all. has anyone had this issue, or know how to rectify it? its incredibly frustrating.

cheers.

 

[Sungazer]

nm i figured it out. i had the use advanced looting toggle deselected in the loot window

Is there a way to manage this similar to simple looting? I want one guy in my group to loot everything under normal mob pulls.

Your ML will loot most things.

The default for new trade-able items is "Keep", thus your ML will keep looting those items unless they are lore or their bags are full.

The default for new no-trade items is "Quest|10", which means everyone will loot up to 10 starting with your ML first. You can change the no-trade default to something else if you like.

I'm not really sure if this is what you were looking for.

I am experiencing an issue where one of my alts will not deposit the items into his bank. All items are marked to keep. I have 7 toons all dedicated to storing tradeskill stuff but for some reason one has stopped working. Any help would be welcome.

EDIT all alts are on the same account so all using the same loot.ini file

Since it only is happening to one of your characters on that machine my best guess would be to check the things that are set at a character level.

Reset the loot.ini location, sometimes that can get weird.

/AutoLoot lootini loot

or whatever you've named your loot.ini file. The other thing I'd check is that the plugin is turned on.

/AutoLoot turn on

 

[Billy2Shoes]

Thanks for the suggestions but no joy. Still wont deposit stuff. It is so weird it was working like a champ up until a few days ago weird.

It still works for other characters or yours on that same computer though?

 

[Billy2Shoes]

yes works on the other alts it is really weird even checked the Autoloot ini to all were the same. Do you think deteling the MQAUtoloot ini might help fix it?

Do each of your alts have different items on them? If they do I'd suggest trying to switch some of the items from the character that works to the one that doesn't work and see if he starts working again. It could be a bad entry somewhere that is causing the issue if you have different items on each character.

 

[Billy2Shoes]

For dealing with all my loot I tend to sell stuff marked sell then parcel all the loot to my alts using Itemsort. Once on those toons I deposit so each toon stores different loot relating to a TS skill. Ill try your suggestion and update you.

Thanks' for your help btw most appreciated. Managing my loot is such a time sync having itemsort and this deposit function saves me hours of time.

Edit: So I had 2 x 32 slot TS bags full of stuff to deposit. Placed one bag in shared, logged in an alt took bag and deposited fine. Placed bag back in shared and logged back into toon that's having issues and he now deposited fine. Would not deposit the other bag so repeated the above the alt would also not deposit. I even remarked each item to keep.

 

[Billy2Shoes]

I manually deposited some item then ran and it worked fine looks like it might have been an issue with 1lb hynid, crab, tuna etc.. marked them all to sell in the loot ini to avoid any future issues.

If you want to keep those items, I'd search through your entire loot.ini and just delete those entries and then recreate them and see if that solves your issue.
