Items Testing made easy!

[John Adams]

Thanks to the herculean efforts of our star developer, LethalEncounter, we now have a much easier solution for finding, summoning and testing these 95,000 items we keep raving about.

Log into TessEQ2 and use the /itemsearch command by itself on a line, and you will now see the familiar "Broker" window:

Only this is no Broker, it is merely a way to search for and "Buy" (summon) items to your character for appearance and stats testing! This one change has just made item verification a no-brainer. Even the Advanced Search works.

Very impressive, and very much appreciated, LE. Nice work, as usual. Take the week off. Ha!


For those whom it is never enough ~wink~, No Brokers are not working - the Sell tab or Sales Log will not show you diddly. This is ONLY for summoning items to your character for VALIDATING ITEMS FOR THE EMU. Thanks for understanding.

Wow, I am looking forward to testing this.

LE,

Another huge favor to ask Can we get the rest of the criteria hooked up in /itemsearch? I am finding more and more stuff I cannot look up. Here's a list of the things I found return no results from itemsearch:

Item Type

• Adornment
  Bauble
  Book
  House Item
  Player-written Book (probably because there aren't any? )
  Poison
  Potion
  Recipe Book
  Sales Display
  Shield (when did this stop working?)
  Spell Scroll
  Tinkered
  Tradeskill
  Transmuted

Tier:
Handcrafted items show "UNCOMMON" - is that correct?
Mastercrafted - no results


Item Effect:
Typing in text here does not appear to return results properly. Example, I type "Dominion" as an Effect the item might give me when it is equipped, and I get the full list of every item in my database. Console is showing "ADORNMENT = |Dominion|" when I try this, or any other words. Do I not understand the purpose of this field?

Right Side: Min/Max Level
I do get a limiting list of items using 80/80 as a range, but the results are definitely not level 80 items. Kinda no real rhyme or reason to them from what I see.

The other right-side criteria for Slot and Special do not work, and I think they never have. I spent some time in debugger trying to see what it was doing, when I realized that the criteria needs to cycle through all 111k items in memory to see what matches what slot. My patience clicking Step Over lasted about 5 clicks til I realized what was happening sorry.

And, we don't care about Cost for this screen. We will for broker, of course.


I'd like to see these fields implemented/fixed before we begin our next phase of item validation so it'll help the testers out.

Thanks!
