I just recently purchased and it was awesome for raising all TS to 300 and maxing trophy. I clicked on the artisan tab under crafting and switched the drop down menu to pottery and got this message:
I tried other ts skills and the same thing happened. I went through my files with a friend who also has the program that is running correctly and they seem to be there. Not sure what to do at this point. I did see if you get red text to run the exe file and did so as well. Relogged a couple times, updated a few times... any help would be appreciated.

The Grilled Bloodied Fish recipe seems to be bugged. I have all the ingredients and can make it manually but TCG doesn't think I can and won't make it automatically. Maybe one of the ingredients has variations? I am using vendor bought Coarse Salt/Ground Pepper and vegetable oil from the brewing recipe that make 4 at a time.
Great tool, I can't do trade skills without it.

sounds like you don't have the correct prize.db file.. if there is a lock on the file or you are running TCSNeXt and then run the setup you are not able to update the files. If you look in the TCN directory there should be a prize.db, does it say 0 bytes?
This was done so the individual user could pick and choose what recipes to skip for their toons globally, so it wouldn't try to make something you would never get items for, or want to camp items for.

If you have all the items, and it is not working, have you tried to select the fish swap checkbox. (this swaps the recipe from velious bluefish to clownfish or whatever, you get the idea). to see if you have one of the types of fish to use for scaling?
If you select it it will switch to the next fish and it will also show you inventory.. if it doesn't make it, and you have items but not enough to make your total amount you can click in the O/R box to just make them with what you got..

I will try these things and get back with you jb
I have the correct coarse salt at 45573. I don't have the fish but has the fillet already made by another toon, the fillet id is 166196. The id for veg oil is 20386 and ground pepper 58282. I have hundreds each and it won't make 1 for me. Using fillet instead of fish is the problem?

It is best you do a screen shot with the info box selected so I can see what it says for the items in the multiple windows.

I know of no reason that it would not work, save for missing items, wrong fish, or the inventory goal has already been met, or option D something to do with yield calculation..
Here's the screenshot. The 4 stacks of components I have, but notice the Craft button don't turn green. Also it's saying using Bloodied Luclinite Fish Scales, which is right, but the fillet is kinda by product of that recipe. Not the main product. Not sure if that's an issue or not.

Can you select the info checkbox...?
The craft button is yellow, if you select the info checkbox I can see the GUI windows and it 99/100 times tells us what is wrong..

Or I could load it up myself, what a novel idea!

Can you show me the missing components window?
I asked for 70, it says 1 fish, so that is wrong.. it should be 35 fish for 2 fillets each..
TLDR time..
1 recipe will yield 2 different things in different yields, but they all have 1 recipe ID. one is 100 on success with x2 for fillets, or 50 on failure..
I need to make a new recipe to point to one fish and have the swap option there..
even though.. what happens when you click in the O/R box and try it.. I think (hope) it would just start crafting.
Yeah, that's one thing and another is it won't use fillet if you already have them. It will always try to make new fillets.
Great, looking forward to it.

Well since I am in the well with the fish, I swapped the order of some velious fish, I was using the one that was hardest to get geographically first, and swapped it to the outdoor zone.
I also added the enhancement to display the proper amount of fish needed in the missing items window, instead of always showing the same fish.
Example:
If we are missing the fish you will get this missing item window:
If we are not (swapped) then you won't see anything..

I was a bit trepid to use it when you rolled it out, but its quickly become something I enjoy.

What does the (standard) checkbox trim do?
if you have a recipe that has the same item throughout the recipe and it is untrimmed you get this:
if you trim it those separated blocks of high quality steel now are made all at once:
Useful for a few recipes, it takes the madness out of seeing your toon revisit the craft station to make something again after it just made it 2 recipes ago...

What does the (standard) checkbox O/R do?
if we want to make 400 misty thicket picnics but only have materials for say 396 and you selected 1000 or 400 for the quantity, you can just select the O/R checkbox and it will craft until everything is done or die trying without worrying about the amount of materials needed overall because of the pesky yellow craft button.

Thanks for the response, I do have a prize.db and it says 0 bytes. this is a screen shot of my files.

If you exit out of everything and then just run /Lua run tcgsetup it should expand the prize file.
If that doesn't work, a reboot for the demons might also do the trick and then run the command again..
or you can just extract the prize.zip file in the directory and overwrite it.

What the hell (standard/batch) does this (x) drop down do??
Info: Multiplies the amount of resources to buy to account for craft failures.
If we want 1 mana battery we can multiply by 5 and it will buy 5 times the resources, it will not run back to the vendor until it has exhausted the on hand resources to make 1 battery.

so as a follow up to my issue and to this comment, while you may be correct that certainly custom uis that are missing information can and will cause issue - that isn't the problem here.Just for everyone's info I use standard default UI and always will, There are custom UIs that just do not work.. I've tried them
the problems i have been having is because you are using
/cleanup to close the tradeskill windows - which works out great - as long as "escape to close" is enabled for those windows.if "'Esc' to Close" is not enabled /cleanup can't do anything
/cleanup detects some containers you have open and then presses escape repeatedly to close those windows
the window TLO does have a .Close function, but you'd have to while check that one is open and then the equivalent of
/invoke ${Window[ContainerWindow].Close}I'm not sure why my escape to close was turned off - probably when i was messing with escape to close trying to help someone with their eq not saving that state
hrm, i'd suspect the better course of action would be to close the window, which is why i spent time determining how to do that, but your call.
people also rebind keys and if you were keypressing W to move forward but they use E instead, you'd have a similar problem

the prize.db file.. is not as it should be.. if it is missing or 0 bytes, it is no good..
If you put this on a new PC you need to run /Lua run tcgsetup
or extract prize.zip to the directory it is in.. and overwrite...
TCSNeXt cannot be running..

Been having an issue when it grabs two trophies from the bank , equips one... but never equips the other one.
It works fine if I remember to remove my arrows and my bow so there are empty slots to put the trophies.
Is it possible to have tcg get the trophy needed from the bank... and deposit back into the bank when done... but use mq2tstrophy to do the actual swaps ?
I tried clicking off auto trophy but and using mq2tstrophy plugin but it seems the plugin gets unloaded.
Sorry if this is covered somewhere.... I searched for trophy but got overwhelmed with the results ... looked under faq...etc..

Having an issue using batch mode where the program keeps wanting to buy things that I have in my inventory as well as in the bank. Specifically in regard to Jewel craft molds and other vendor sold components like cleaning solution.
I have check boxes in Auto shop, Bank, Deposit, Plat, Trophy
