MQ2LinkDB

Description

MQ2LinkDB allows you to keep your own personalised database of item links. There are two versions of the plugin:

  • v1: The original, by Ziggy is available here

  • v2: An updated version of the plugin, which includes a TLO and linkbot functionality, was created by rswiders and is available in the VIP Forums here

Features

  • Able to import the huge database of links from http://eqitems.13th-floor.org/ and add them.
  • Watch chat for item links and add them automatically.
  • Links are returned as tells and will go into the tell window. They do not go into your log file, nor does LinkDB show up when you try and reply.

Commands

  1. Download the items.zip file directly using this link
  2. Unzip the items.txt file to the \Release directory
  3. In game, type /link /import and wait a few seconds for the items to be added
  4. Out of game, edit the MQ2LinkDB.txt file and: 1. Remove the first line (ends in "wornlevel") 2. Search for "iksar left hand" and delete the 3 lines that end in '=\
    /link /max # - Set maximum number of results (default 10)

Type Member Name Description
string ${LinkDB[name]} Display the link found by name. use =name for an exact match

Examples

/link baby joseph sayer - You will get a tell with a link to the Baby Joseph Sayer.

/shout OMG I'm a dork! I have ${LinkDB[=Baby Joseph Sayer]} in my pack. Ha! - If the item is not found, the TLO returns an empty string, so you probably don't want to be directly shouting about Baby Joseph Sayer in your backpack. If you do and misspell his name, you will end up shouting about an empty string which isn't recommended.
