I was annoyed because my various predefined filters in the tradeskill window were all scrambled up, so I took the time to carefully restructure the filter file, eq2_recipe_filter.vdl, and uploaded it to EQ2Interface.com. The filters include, in order: Apprentice Equipment (for your tradeskill apprentices) Adornment & Tinkering Writs (from Londiar Inygad at your tradeskill headquarters) Far Seas Mission Recipes (the weekly and group missions from Mara) Shipwrecked (all the items you learn to craft doing the Shipwrecked! Timeline) Adornments Primordial Adornments Purple Runes War Runes Green Adorns Holiday: Brewday Holiday: Bristlebane's Perfectly Serious Holiday: Erollisi Gifts Holiday: Nights of the Dead Holiday: Tinkerfest Tinkering Far Seas Strategic Pricing T1 Recipes T2 Recipes T3 Recipes T4 Recipes T5 Recipes T6 Recipes T7 Recipes T8 Recipes T9 Recipes T10 Recipes T11 Recipes T1 Rare T2 Rare T3 Rare T4 Rare T5 Rare T5 Deathfist Armor T6 Rare T7 Rare T8 Rare T8 RoK T8 Void T9 Rare T10 Rare T11 Rare Fighter Grandmasters Mage Grandmasters Priest Grandmasters Scout Grandmasters Spectral Mastery Draconic Knowledge Ancient Knowledge Any can easily be deleted, renamed, or modified using the standard tools in the Tradeskill window.
Nicely done. I've done similar things with mine over the years. It's sad this is necessary, though. We have requested time and time again that the recipe window be turned into something more like the broker advanced search window. We should be able to filter recipes quickly and easily based on the same sort of criteria; what sort of item, what slot, what tier, etc. I personally requested it one year at a Fan Faire/SOELive event, and I know many others have requested it over the years as well.
Sig, I know I've thanked you before for this incredible filter, YET, I have to thank you tons again just for the Holiday filtering! You are fantastic and wonderful to do this work for the rest of us (somewhat crazy) tradeskillers. Gluehwein season is approaching, I'll brew up a batch for ya.
I'm fixin' to upload an updated version. Because as you go along and craft, you keep finding things you failed to set within the filters Probably tomorrow.
The updated list has been uploaded. I added more holiday recipes, a few apprentice things I had missed before, and a few more Far Seas Recipes.
like everyone else, i've got lots of alts and was getting tired of searching for recipes to make for quests so i started making a Quests filter. it's not complete but has t1 to t4 and lvl 90 - 95. i used // for starting comments and eq2 doesn't mind them. Code: RecipeFilter { name = "Quests" filterItems = [ RecipeFilterItem { name = "RecipeBook" selected = [ // TS 1 "Recipe: Lucky Wolf Paw Charm" // TS 5 Raffik "How to Heal Your Healers" "Vulrich Drumsticks" // TS 10 Halas "Unmarked Weapons and Shields" "Working With Acids" "High Explosives For All Occasions" "Spinning Wheel Basics" "Plate Recipes For All Occasions" "Building A Better Rat Trap" "Learning To Weave Fine Fabrics" // TS 19 Raffik "Globe of Homecoming" // TS 20 BBM "Recipe: Fossil Cleaning Instructions" "Recipe: Gallie's Researched Notes" "Recipe: Strong and Sturdy Tent" "Do-It-Yourself Tome Repair For Beginners" "Kobold Bane For All Occasions" "Ninoin's Custom Arrow Specifications" "Turtle Shell Shield Sketches" "Book of Basic Bear Charms" "Irontoe Favorite Battleaxe Recipe" // TS 20 Raffik BBM // grrr wtf was the name of this book, it showed up under quest filter // TS 30 Raffik BBM "Piratical Weapon Adornments For All Ages" // TS 40 EL / Zek "Apothecary's Handbook of Chemical Testing for Pests" // TS 40 Raffik SteamFont "Clockwork Salvager Stun" // TS 40 Lavastorm "forge bellows diagram" "chimney construction schematics" // TS 50 Raffik Halas "Henchman Adornment Pack" // TS 60 Raffik Halas "Coldain Cure-All" // TS 70 Raffik Terran's Grasp, Kylong Plains "Charm of Expertise" // TS 80 Raffik Paineel "Potion of Nimble Fingers" // TS 90 Raffik Goahmari Village, Great Divide "Essence of the Zephyr" // TS 90 Fina's Retreat "Far Seas Trading Company Recipe: Modified Shellfish Trap for Arctic Climates" "Mira's Succulent Crab Casserole Recipe" "Far Seas Trading Company Recipe: Basic Skinning Knives" "Far Seas Trading Company Recipe: Leather Pelt Curatives" "Far Seas Trading Company Recipe: Basic Root Preserves" "Far Seas Trading Company Recipe: Extended Fishing Rod" "Othmir Shell Armor" "Far Seas Trading Company Recipe: Weapon Repair Manual" "Far Seas Trading Company Recipe: Insulating Cushion for Cool Climates" "Othmir Drum Recipe" "Traditional Othmir Drum Recipe" "Othmir Folding Table" // TS 90 Thurgadin Harbor "Blueprint: Widget Repair" "Blueprint: Loomba Prototype" "Blueprint: Zoomba Prototype" "Blueprint: Boomba Prototype" "Eirik's Traditional Healing Stew Recipe" "Archaeological Grade Ice Pick Recipe" "Thurgadin Supply Manifesto" "Goahmari Notes on Shawl Repair" "Coldain Records on Historical Embroidery" // TS 90 Flying Mount "Gryphon Fur Conditioning Recipe" "Silk Bandage Recipe" // TS 90 Blisterrock Ridge // TS 90 Eastern Wastes // hmmm "Experimental spire device plan" // TS 100 Raffik Mara ] } ] }
Hi! I downloaded your .vdl file as per instructions, but my ts interface does not filter as displayed in your picture. I believe I am using the classic UI. Do I need to download a custom UI first? And, if so, which one do I look for? Been a REAL long time since I visited EQII Interface. Thanks, Puck
The file goes in your main EQ2 installation folder. You know you are in the right place when you find the original copy, the one you are going to name with "backup" in it. You will have to restart the game for changes to take effect.
The Tradeskill Recipe Filter has been updated and has all the recipes you'll need for the Thalumbra tradeskill quests and missions.
Best tradeskill system of any MMO ever. Worst UI of any tradeskill system ever. I want the sorting options of the broker window to be incorporated into a new tradeskill window. Cant find nothin' with this system.
The tradeskill window, just like everything else in the UI, is XML-based. You might take a look over on EQ2Interface.com and see if there's one you like better. If not, there's a forum for UI requests, and I'd suggest explaining exactly what kinds of sorts you want to do. My tradeskill recipe filter has been updated for Terrors of Thalumbra, and I added a bunch of stuff to further help being able to find just what you need from the drop-down. The filters include, in order: Apprentice Equipment (for your tradeskill apprentices) Adornment & Tinkering Writs (from Londiar Inygad at your tradeskill headquarters) Far Seas Mission Recipes (the weekly and group missions from Mara and Isle of Refuge) Shipwrecked (all the items you learn to craft doing the Shipwrecked! Timeline) Thalumbra (everything needed for Thalumbra tradeskill quests) Adornments Primordial Adornments Purple Runes War Runes Green Adorns (updated with new Spirit Stones) Infusers (new gear-boosting items) Holiday: Brewday Holiday: Bristlebane's Perfectly Serious Holiday: Erollisi Gifts Holiday: Nights of the Dead Holiday: Tinkerfest Tinkering T1 Recipes T2 Recipes T3 Recipes T4 Recipes T5 Recipes T6 Recipes T7 Recipes T8 Recipes T9 Recipes T10 Recipes T11 Recipes T1 Rare T2 Rare T3 Rare T4 Rare T5 Rare T5 Deathfist Armor T6 Rare T7 Rare T8 Rare T8 RoK T8 Void T9 Rare T10 Rare T11 Rare Fighter Grandmasters Mage Grandmasters Priest Grandmasters Scout Grandmasters Assorted Furniture (faction-based artisan-crafted items, for the most part) Agnostic Mastercrafting (10-90) (new) Magmatic Armor (55) TSO (79-79) TSO Daily (crafting faction quests) Emerald Halls Recipes (70) Spectral Mastery (95) Crowning Achievements (100) Assassin Beastlord Berserker Brigand Bruiser Channeler Coercer Conjuror Defiler Dirge Fury Guardian Illusionist Inquisitor Monk Mystic Necromancer Paladin Ranger Shadowknight Swashbuckler Templar Troubador Warden Warlock Wizard
People playing in the Agnostic dungeons get special armor and a kind of crafting shard. These Agnostic Recipes are used to improve the dropped armor. Here's a sample of some of the level 20 recipes.
