  • You can see a youtube video linked here that shows brute force runic crafting in action. attempting to craft very specific items. There was an old post I made on this forum (can't find it), that couched this in terms of "balron economics".  That is,…
  • Are you talking about this post ?link Whether it's scrolls of transcendence, or the slim veil, these all resolve down to the same discussion. Take animal taming as an example.  This is an incredibly grindy skill to raise.  Players don't like the gri…
  • If you assume people are doing this in FEL / slim for the chance to get Slim's Shadow Veil, it's been posted the odds of that drop are about 1/10,000. If you assume each trade run can be done in 2-5 minutes, that's on order of 20,000-50,000 minutes …
  • @Bleak Bleak, regarding issue #1 (healthbars not updating) This (link) appears to fix the issue. Can you propogate this/similiar change to all EC users? If you want a "1-line" fix, something like the bold below likely works, without fixing other l…
  • I don't think detect can be trained on pets, and the skill doesn't seem to function. Barding difficulty is rarely brought up on pets.  (Detect is mostly a "death counter").  It's probably most important when fighting monsters that use barding skills…
  • The "recursive" nature of the current search is also a useful feature (you can use it to refine a search based on properties). If search were scriptable as I mention above, your original request could be moot.  Why interact with a tiny UI element, f…
  • In spellbook.lua, function Spellbook.UpdateSpells() -- offset -120 on X axis clickable area ("straps" that hang on left and right are 60 width). WindowSetDimensions( this, (xSize * scale)-120, (ySize * scale)) -- was +0 on X -- ... Dyna…
  • Personally, I would balk at the request to move the search item UI element. On the other hand, perhaps a request more along these lines would be useful? Provide a macro (assignable to hotbar, key, etc) that can be used to execute "Find" in the last …
  • @Bleak Can you remove the clamp to max 1.0 in EC, which is being applied to the "custom_ui_scale" configuration element?  (in the player settings file). Other->Command = script SystemData.Settings.Interface.customUiScale = 1.2 2. Act…
  • The windows are rectangles. The problem appears to be an offset used on the left side.Notice you can't drag the book around underneath the left side strap that hangs mid-way down the book. The "clickable" area of the right side of the book is shifte…
  • Hydra should be a new tame-able.  (1)Commanded undead (necromancy mastery) should no longer "poof" at logout/etc.  (2) (1) That would spice up and provide an alternative way to fix the taming related problems with Underwater (link).  Lets face i…
  • A few things:There is no EC bug.  Separate from that, EC readilly supports using specific items by objectID (search my prior posts), which can be used for specific belts, etc.  No need for complex scripts or 3rd party stuff.Even if a raft of CC spec…
  • Yoshi said: “No people won’t switch back to CC at all. but less people would need to switch from CC. so let’s talk about nerve strike ... As you've said, many issues being reported aren't a problem in EC (either default EC, or with avail…
  • Yoshi said: what is really the technical difficulty in adding a debuff on nerve strike? When i am killing random bosses, sometimes I am presented with a debuff I never seen before, because only hit with it on that one encounter I do less tha…
  • TimSt said: Unfortunately there is no DaviesLocker.lua file for EC mod-ers such as myself to modify to add a search or filter capacity. Personally I would love to increase the size of the font used and filter on facet and level. Haven't r…
  • When in felucca, it comes down to this, I think: "objectType 130 (wall) and energy field (~14662).... client code .. stripping the impassable flag..."  (client side issue). Oddly, in trammel, you can rubber band yourself with wall of stone and ener…
  • Assuming you copy the character file over,after a shard transfer, you'll need to refresh macros that involve equipping items, or using specific items.  That's because the items from the old shard get copied to new items on the new shard, with new id…
  • Moderator, feel free to exercise your powers here.From a user POV, it doesn't matter which corporate entity manages the certificate.
  • The carpet is there in CC too. Was able to catch one of the first frames entering the room, in CC. The broader issue is CC renders certain areas much faster than EC.  There are public houses in luna, where runebook libraries are hosted.  Those immed…
  • Sorry, the last paste above didn't include the spellweaving update  (use mobileData, instead of data).  MobileHealthBar.UpdateStatus(mobileId) LabelSetText(windowName .. "HealthBarPerc", perc .. L"%") if (Interface.HealthBarWod and (mobileDa…
  • Yoshi said: “The book isn’t needed on EC as you have the menu, the book is instructions for CC as there is no portal menu in CC” The info in the book is useful, and applicable for EC users too.  I have the display of the book tied to the …
  • Thanks to Yoshi, I tested a strap.  This is all on EC. First, the slot/location tracking behavior associated with the strap appears consisent with what I posted here, Second, none of the books I tested go back into the strap.  That includes various …
  • For the numerically challenged?     -- before RuneClicked, support case sensitive unicode / non-unicode         local name = nil          if(type (runeNumber) == "string") then         name = towstring(runeNumber)     elseif(type (runeNumber) == "ws…

  • Ideally the Z distance checks for all the various portals should be removed (for both use and command uttering). More detail regarding the Z position distance check: The Ankh of devotion does a Z distance check on double click/use, and won't show t…
  • Another generic problem that is not likely to be EC or CC specific: The UO server distance check for the portal appears to take into account Z distance.  Some public houses have a portal on the edge of floor level of the house, at Z+5 from the groun…
  • Yoshi said: “dungeon option when there is no other option? Here's a tweak that pre-selects dungeon or a valid option based on the portal type. At this time, not planning on doing anything more extensive (see the first line comment below). …
  • Yoshi said: “On your corrupted portal. Why you got dungeon option when there is no other option? could I suggest you copy the shrine portal menu? That’s really nice one” Try saying "britain mint" at a corrupted crystal portal, when there…
  • Indeed, the left edge of the dialog box is centered in the middle of the player tile.loop, if you want the middle of the dialog box to center over the middle of the player, then you can modify the EC UI lua code. If somebody from broadsword is activ…
