Wow, you guys are loaded, I bet if your leg gashed open benjamins would fly out!
 
If you find a better farming location for a tradeskill drop, please advise and I will update the table accordingly.
 
Is there a recipe search? I just see a box to find the first letter.

You can select the letter and tradeskill or leave it at default and then click the execute query button

Is this what you are seeing?

Yes sorry, I was thinking about typing the recipe like “Faded Restless”. And it shows all the recipes that have ”Faded Restless” in the words.

Oh Hell No, No Typing!

Unless you really want typing...

I can however (future), get all the expansions that are separated out in eqtc so you can search by expansion by tradeskill..

Not sure if it is even needed..

You can mouse wheel down or use the slider on the side. Selecting a letter and a tradeskill really narrows them down...

That would be awesome.

How possible would it be to search the bank for mats for a list of possible recipes? Like I have these dropped items what can I make with them + vendor items.

Just kidding, are you referring to standard crafting or maxing your augment?

In either case the crafting model takes into account what you have in the bank when crafting and should grab accordingly!

Unless you are just like hey I have a taco and some marinara sauce, what can I make? My first idea is it just cycles the entire recipe database and says hey I have this and that let's make it.

In addition, if you have 50 chronal dust on another character you can click the request button and via the magic of DanNet it will ask the other toon if it has the item and bring it to you from the bank or on person.

Where this really shines, is if you are maxing the augment and have a list of items that are missing you click request and have toons in zone that have materials and one by one it will ask and have them delivered to your toon. (I mean seriously who wants to check each toon when it can do it for you)

Just a quick primer

Standard Crafting, checks inventory, checks bank, checks yield, checks tools, checks trophies and then comes up with a plan for the item you are trying to make in the quantity you specified.

Max Crafting (350) does the same but calculates based on a quantity of 1 for the main recipe item.

These options are turned on by default in the global craft settings tab.

Here is an example of asking for fish stuff for maxing fish skill. It asks people in zone and also finds out if another toon of yours in another zone has the item it will tell you, it will only bring things to you if the character is in your zone..

First, I want to start off by saying im just average at figuring stuff out on the computer. So I bought your tradeskill plugin for next. I have a few other plugins for next also. But the tradeskill one doesnt show up in the plugins tab of the redguides launcher. I did manually download it, im just not sure where all the information in the folders are suppose to go. Any guidance would be appericiated.

Thanks

Kar


Didnt see a response so I thought I would bump. Sorry if im being a PITA.

Hello and thank you for purchasing the resource, Lua scripts are not currently downloaded via RG launcher, unsure of when that will be only the PTBs know that one.

However, if you have zip or winrar or some other compression tool

You would open the file and select everything in the folder and drag it to the Lua folder which is right under MQNext (or whatever you named it)

1639089540340.png

or you could extract with path to the Lua folder using one of the compression utilities.

1639089643234.png

1639089687093.png

once you have everything in the folder, and you have the mq2lua plugin loaded you should be able to /Lua run tcg

if that gives you a bunch of red text, you are most likely missing some DLLs. these are included which is in the vc_redist_x86.exe file. You can double click on the file to install the libraries. It is used to work with the SQL data.

I tired it again and man this is sweet. Running it on 18 characters right now. Grade A software my friend.

Up and going Thanks so much!
 
Would this work on Rizlona? Currently in OoW Xpac.

The data is all contained in a db file which is independent of the server. So, I would believe it would work up to the current xpansion. It may be best to ask someone who has purchased this that plays on Rizlona for a definitive answer. My answer is yes, but I defer to those that actually play on the server. This is meant to work on pretty much everything I know it works on Zek, FV for sure.
 
Please ensure you have lots of water for brewing, pottery and other skills, it will look like it is broken and stop crafting, but it isn't, you just ran out of water. I do my best to buy in exact amounts.

The case study is this, you have salvage and you have left over components but you lost the water, well guess what, it will use the water thus offsetting the count. So.. water..

Would it be possible to display the unmodified skill on the Artisan page? Kinda like how it is on the crafting page. Does the progress bar represent getting 350 or learning all the recipes? Thanks great plugin.
 
Coming up next...

1639109198320.png

Will work on this a bit.. but here is the ground work..

Tells you what time it is so you know when to go to Halas.
Provides a travel button so you can go on your own time.
Start seals - just runs the list of recipes needed for that particular seal.
Stop - to abort the whole process

Next Steps. provide a turn in button so when you get to the Frenchman you can get that seal, also, get you to the other side of the water (code already there, of course, needs a masseuse)

This can be automated, but the way it would work, it would sit and wait until that guy wakes up and then run there and turn it in and come back with the Seal :).

Votes?

jb321 updated Tradeskill Construction Set NeXt with a new update entry:

Artisan Seals have arrived!

2.08b - ChangeLog

Added: You may now use your neighborhood guild hall to craft.

View attachment 35637

When checked, it will always run to your NGH, if you don't have all the containers and a shabby lobby door, there really is no need to use this, it may be best used if you have a ton of TS items on you and are mass producing in the quietude of your...

The progress bar shows the percentage of all the recipes for a given tradeskill, I believe the number is 90% to max that tradeskill aug (someone knows better I am sure)

My theory is if you have 90% and the AA's you will be 350 or 250 for that skill.

I will think on adding the skill level and where to do it, I try to keep things less cluttered as possible, if possible.

This seems really cool for the Artisan prize. Can it been used for us lazy people that have a bunch of T3 ToL sets of gear to make? As in can I ask it to make 6 BP’s and say go and then 6 earring ect.

Here is the current recipe list of all the ToLs it can make..

One recipe needs to be fixed, it had the same ID for Fletching and Smithing and it appears to be good now, I will update that today for the War Sword.

Would it be possible to have the character use "Gate/etc" when running out and buying things and then returning to POK? I noticed a character was running from POK to Barren coast over and over last night.

sculptured poison vial seems to be missing, i was able to buy it in overtheretwo

Would you believe by design for the vial? It is more of me not knowing how to get to OT2 other than using a hammer, a port (to another zone), or a guild portal stone. Is there an easy way to get there? If there is for everyone (F2P) and they don't get wrecked along the way I can add it in../... Alternatively I can check to see if you are part of a guild and go to NGH buy the stone and run to vendor.. but that sounds like it costs money.. :P

/travelto overtherertwo looks like people would get wrecked for sure..

Edit: Planning on making a buy 100 or buy 1000 vial button just for the Rogueses to run over there to overthere2 and then ToH,Drunka,Binden, etc back

Running to Barren coast is by design for the Artisan Prize, it buys for the current recipe. I can do a gate/ToH/Drunkard Check.. not everyone has that luxury but I can put it in for those that do.

Why do I not mass buy you say? Well, it is possible you will end up with a lot of unused materials based on failures and they will clutter up your bags.. and that is a turn off if you decide to go hunting or do a different tradeskill.


-- Even though I am anti-fill up the bags I am kicking around the idea for mass buying for 20-25 recipes at a time, so I am a walking contradiction.

The best option (currently) is when you get there, pause the script and mass buy x of whatever it is, and they won't run there as often or at all during that crafting session.

Not sure what I am doing wrong with this thing lol, also just migrated to NEXT so could be dont have Lua set up right


Was able to get the GoD quest to run (already had them done so it just ran around and re-got the recipes), so telling me its loaded up right I am just missing a step on being able to do the Artisan portion in the Craft tab (where the error comes from).
Have ran vc_redist.x86 (had to uninstall version I had installed to run the file provided)

My guess is this:
1639178808644.png

You don't have Working and ShoppingLists folders under TCN under Lua
 
The exe is working, if you ran the GOD, the Artisan tab writes your recipes to the EQ directory and tries to copy them to the \"MacroquestPath"\Lua\tcn\working directory for processing
 
1639179285774.png
That is my Install location Just restarted computer seeing if that does anything different.
 
I am looking for hardcoded in my code, I see one thing but it is unrelated. My next guess is the - , or that it doesn't like it.. in Dir name.
Can you provide the no such file or directory snip from the error please?

What is that? lol

There is an edited version of the error if that is what you were talking about

Think I got it fixed :) you cant have a space in your file directory name, guessing it did not like that. It is at least doing some stuff now
