FYI you can cut the sleep times in about half universally, it works better.

nice script j, good work for a testbased radar.

Thank you, I figure something is better than nothing, i'm hoping to figure out how to do it's own status window like in the buff bot, and give you a short list of the nearest 3-5 nodes or the nearest 3-5 nodes based on your priority List.


Any suggestions other than that are greatly encouraged.

please place downloads in the DOWNLOADS area!!1

How do I deploy this script. The zip file has a trader folder and the root .vbs file. Normally the stuff I get auto install.

Thanks

Download the file and extract it into the Scripts directory as IS!

Open up the scripts in EQ2 and then put your paperdoll behind it. Change the script over to the new harvest script and run it.

just unzip it into the \scripts directory, restart XU and you should be set!

Had a idea of basicly instead of showing the text # for location. Have it make a glowy trail (maybe even do both cuz trails get buggy)

Other than that all i can say is great work. Helps alot

In Serpents Sewer when I did that, it caused the EQII client to lock and die, thats why I was asking.

Can you run other scripts okay? specifically the mousedemo one? if so i'll head down there tonight and see what's going on.

I'll try to test it tonight. Was going to try to do it this morning before work, but my machine was tied up archiving my Ocean's 12 DVD so I don't get it all scratched up and stuff.

I re-downloaded everthing again just to be sure. New XUnleashed client, new EQ2 Service, and your script. That's all I'm running.

Am on XP Pro, AMD 2500+, 1GB ram, ATI 9700 Ultra, etc etc.

nm....

I checked compatability mode and it worked. My apologies.
