Radar and EQ2Track queries

[appleuser]

Couple of things I've been meaning to ask about for ages:

1) Radar is very hit and miss for me at tracking shinies. I've tried adding target when I have one targeted, and also just manually adding a ? but 99% of the time Radar doesn't see them. Sometimes when I zone it starts picking them up but this is pretty rare. Is this something other people experience or have I got something set up incorrectly perhaps?

This is my config:




2) EQ2Track doesn't work at all for me. I have the EQ2Track folder and EQ2Track.iss in the scripts folder, but I get this error in the console when I try to run it:

EverQuest2 Extension for Innerspace (By Amadeus) *LOADED*

Could not load interface file 'D:/Program Files (x86)/InnerSpace/Scripts/UI/EQ2Track.xml'

Any advice would be gratefully received.

no comment re your shiny/radar issue

looks like you're running eq2track from scripts/ when it should be running from it's own directory (scripts/eq2track/) - the ui/ subdir it's looking for is located there. i'd check to see if you do have scripts/eq2track/ and verify eq2track.iss is in there, then delete the one in the top level scripts/

Thanks very much Primalz, that fixed EQ2Track for me!

Regarding your radar issue, your thinking is reversed a little I think. the box at the bottom is a filter, not a list of things you want to show up. When i'm looking for shinies, I deselect all except PCs and resources, and then add every kind of resource in the zone to the filter. after they are in, it doesn't automatically filter them out, so I do "radar off" and then "radar on". If you see another resource that you didn't type in before, add it and reload radar again.

A search feature to look for a specific match while filtering out all else would be a very useful addition

Eq2track is what you want

Agree with BJ. EQ2Track is doing a great job (now I have it installed correctly!) Also (little tip) depending on whether the shiny resource is labelled as 'common' or 'special' tells you whether it's a flying shiny, which is incredibly useful imo.

That is just what I was looking for! Seems like I learn somethig new all the time, thanks a bunch.
