The Test Update 1-08-2019 contains the following: This means I need to change my EverQuest Inventory Report program. From what I guess from that patch note and the current file names (example: Fanra_bertox.ini), my inventory file will be called Fanra_Bertox-Inventory.txt (note the case of each letter). However, there are a bunch of servers. Here is my best guess as to what will replace "Bertox" for each server (Full name: Name used in file name): Agnarr: Angarr Antonius Bayle (Kane Bayle): Antoni Bertoxxulous (Bertoxxulous – Saryrn): Bertox Beta: Beta Brekt: Brekt Bristlebane (Bristlebane - The Tribunal): Bristl Cazic Thule (Cazic Thule - Fennin Ro): Cazic Coirnav: Coirna Drinal (Drinal - Maelin Starpyre): Drinal Erollisi Marr (Erollisi Marr - The Nameless): Erolli Fippy Darkpaw (Vulak-Aerr) : Fippy Firiona Vie: Firion Lockjaw: Lockja Luclin (Luclin – Stromm): Luclin Phinigel: Phinig Povar (Povar – Quellious): Povar Ragefire: Ragefi Test: Test The Rathe (The Rathe – Prexus): Rathe Trakanon: Trakan Tunare (Tunare - The Seventh Hammer): Tunare Vox: Vox Xegony (Xegony - Druzzil Ro): Xegony Zek: Zek If I could get some confirmation on this I would appreciate it. Thank you.
The limit isn't 6 chars, at least not with log files. eqlog_Smokebane_bristle.txt for example. So inventory files should be the same. It just doesn't use multiple words for logs. Cazic Thule for example... it's just cazic.
Which makes it harder for me because I don't have a character on every server and really don't feel like creating them and then checking this. If there was a list somewhere... Assuming I get an answer to this, I'll update my http://everquest.fanra.info/wiki/Game_servers article to contain this information for the future.
Thank you for your reply. I see now that it contains what I need. You posted the short names in all lower case, I'm assuming based on the patch notes that the names will be capitalized for the inventory files.
I guess that Visual Basic.Net file names aren't, now that I've looked at it since you mentioned it. In general, however, I am a very detail orientated person and with programming you learn quickly that you must be exact or your program will not work correctly (or run at all).
