I have ten characters on one account and I use all of them to store one thing or another. Is there a way to search all of the inventory outputfiles instead of searching each individually? It isn't a huge issue of course, but it would be more convenient if I could automate the process somehow.
Download Notepad++. https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.6.6.html Use the option to search all files in a directory,(find in files) it will then list the files in that dir that contain the text you want.
Cygwin or the Windows 10 bash shell. Very quick and dirty script of mine (mostly to search for tradeskill stuff), /usr/local/bin/ts #!/bin/sh cd /c/*x86*/EverQuest # Change this to the path of your EQ dir. for i in `ls *-Inventory.txt`;do echo "$i";grep "$*" $i | cut -f4,1,2;echo "--------------------------------------";done Outputs what slot it's in, what the item is, and how many you have in each inventory file.
Does this show items not in that character owned houses? IE character Joe owns the house but character Jane has it full of items as co owner or just someone allowed to put items in there. Since Jane owns the items - will they show? Or will it only show Jane's items in Jane's house?
Try this https://software.eqresource.com/index.php . I have the inventory for 40 toons loaded for searching.
It lists whatever shows up in the file when you do /output realestate. I would guess if I do on Fanra /output realestate it would show Alice's items that are in Fanra's house. If you try it, let us know whether it works.
Right now you can only see what items you own in a house you own. /output realestate will not show me all the prizes I own that I put in alt's house. It will only show if the alt runs the command. Maybe someday
There's no way to know what is in the house of someone else unless Daybreak adds that to the /output realestate of the item owner or someone uses a program not permitted and uses it to scan PC memory.
