MQ2LootManager - Simple Loot plugin that uses choice made in the advloot window to decide what to do with your loot.

MQ2LootManager
This simple loot manager will use EQ's built in Advanced Loot Window to decide how to handle loot.

If you are in a group
For the Shared loot list (bottom)
If you are the Master Looter
- and If it's set as Always need or Always Greed it will simply give the item to yourself.
- If it's set as Never or No it will leave the item on the corpse.

For the Personal loot list (top)

Sure, it won't automatically distribute items to group members based on a predefined number of quest items set by the user.
But it also won't automatically give yourself any No Drop items because the default action is keep. The default action is Do NOTHING
(unless you're not the ML and an item has gone to your personal loot list.)

More than enough reason to use this. Thanks!

So, this does everything the in game loot already does? 0_o

but faster?

Yes and then slight no.
If you have AN/AG selected and don't have autoroll selected it will automatically autoroll. If another user has AN/AG it's possible they will get the item. This ensures the item just goes to the Master Looter.

I might box 6-18 toons at a time, but I don't want to manage that many inventories if I can avoid it. I'd prefer it just all went to the ML automatically. For quest items and such I don't mind managing them manually, for items I've never seen before that are just "normal" items like vendor trash or whatnot, I'd like to decide if I want it easily with a simple click, or if it's some no-drop I've been camping I can decide if I want to give it to a specific box manually every time, such as an Aug/weapon/gear.

But yes, it does essentially do that but faster. No real big advantage to it unless you want to be able to manage the items but don't want the window in your face forever while it spends all day thinking about what it should do.

MQ2Autoloot is good but headless (everything is done via the command line or editing the ini). This uses /advloot to be that ‘menu / configuration’ window, and thats why MQ2LootManager is good

Yeah, I do like my interfaces. If I spin up a new toon, or I decide to farm something with one box today, but then tomorrow want to do the same area on a different box, it's as simple as merging the filters using the ingame UI. So while it doesn't provide all the nifty features that MQ2Autoloot gives a user, I find the simplistic nature of what it does to be enough for me. You can still use MQ2Autoloot to set items for sell, and then use it for selling all said marked items to vendor, or for banking or all the other features as well. I personally use Autoloot to handle my vendor trash for me. So even if you like the way this loots, that doesn't mean you can't also use the other features available with autoloot. However, I wouldn't recommend using both this plugin and autoloot to manage your loot at the same time. I haven't tried but I can't imagine the results would be desirable.
 
I'm using this plugin, love it btw! I purchased the Perk that grants me 2 additional bag slots on my char and I noticed that I get a message: "Out of Space!! Clean up your bags you slob!" I currently have two additional 28 slot bags in the new position 9 and 10 slots on my char and they are mostly empty.

I have no control over this. If you dump contents of other bags into the two new bag slots it should register you have space again.

Push to automatically accept the msg about Lore-Equipped items.
Push to implement /lootmanager outputting pause status.

Should come in "next" rebuild.

While it's available for Legacy, these updates won't be in it. So if you haven't switched to next, now is a great time.

That's exactly what I did already, e.g. dump stuff into bags in other slots. Also, just started ignoring the message. Have been running Next for months now and loving it. :)
 
On one of my toons punchcard gets stuck in an endless loop of "no" clicking as it should temporarily be on ignore. This sticking stops casting and melee until the item is left on corpse by the loot master. it appears to take over the mouse control when this happens.
 
The only thing this plugin does is accept items or leave items. It doesn't click any of the checkboxes. Are you sure you're not also using another means of automating loot?

Yes. It's getting the mouse click for "temporary" (I'll want to loot them if I don't have them in the future.) lore items stuck repeatedly selecting "no" for a lore item that is already on the toon. One of the punch card items.

The advloot window no button just flashes selected not selected until the loot master leaves it on the corpse. Also of note, there are other toons in group and those players clearly haven't set these items to anything in adloot.
 
I changed my ninjaloot.inc to this:
| Ninjadvloot.inc v6.2 07/27/2020 Redguides.com
| Updated: Stripped file to render it useless 7/27/2020 by BigDaddy
|
| Usage: add the following to your macro for looting
| #include Ninjadvloot.inc
| /call SetupAdvLootVars
| /call LootMobs or /call UseAdvLoot

Sub SetupAdvLootVars(string ChangeIniFile)
/echo BD_NINJALOOT: Ninja Loot got called for intial setup!
/return

Sub LootMobs
/echo BD_NINJALOOT: Ninja Loot got called for looting mobs!
/return

Sub UseAdvLoot
/echo BD_NINJALOOT: Ninja Loot got called for using Advanced Loot!
/return

Aftwards all this started happening and it rewrote the ninjaloot.inc to its orginal form at some point and started using mq2autoloot.

Any ideas?

you should turn off looting by other means. you should not even be using ninjaadvloot

Yes. I believed that change to the inc file would kill ninjaloot. I'm running kissassist. I had been using loot manager but ninja kept trying to control loot and that inc change was the only way I found to shut off ninjaloot.

I've shut down autoloot. I've enabled loot manager and edited the ninja Inc back to the above posted text.

Hopefully, this fixed it.

what is your looton set to in your kissassist
 
Sic said:
so yeah... turn it to 0 :)

On all the toons? Even the loot master? I'm ignorant apparently. I'm going to guess that looting=1 turns mq2autoloot on. Which I don't want on.

Have I guessed correctly? Just so I understand if kiss has a built in loot or if it's calling another plugin.

I hadn't noticed until today...

Lore item is spamming the lore item message. Had to manually leave on corpse. (Or give to another toon.)

I just merged all of their loot filters to see if that helps next time...
 
Is there anyway to get to this to loot Chase items? Havent seen enough to be able to click always need. So I am sure some slip between the cracks!! I want to loot all and have it clicked in EQ settings, but dont want to miss out hehe.
Thanks

this uses your eq loot settings, there's no way to force add it via this plugin, you'd want to edit your eq loot filters to include those items
 
Ill try and figure it out hehe, thanks.. Was looking in the edit filters and searched blood, blood-soaked and other variations. Ill just lose some. I just hand them out anyways. NO loss..Thanks
