Gearcollector for some reason does not detect Karieyh Ring or Highwing Helm, I did //load updateresources but it didnt help. :/

**Byrthnoth** · 2014-11-15 08:38

Okay, so:
1) The XML resources (for stuff like GearCollector) have been updated, so those things shouldn't be an issue anymore.
2) ffxidb.com should be totally up to date at this point. Let us know if you find anything wrong.
3) I put a new version of Shortcuts on -dev that changes the way ambiguous spells are handled pretty dramatically. Now it will just default to MA -> JAs -> WSs -> MSs. You can override it by using a prefix.

It's in the resources but GC won't detect it. My GS detects it and when I export sets into XML for GC, it exports <head>Highwing Helm</head> successfully and it equips it when I use WS and Lunge. It's in the items.xml too:

Code:

[26716] = {id=26716,en="Highwing Helm",ja="ハイウィングヘルム",enl="highwing helm",jal="ハイウィングヘルム",cast_delay=0,cast_time=0,category="Armor",flags=63568,item_level=119,jobs=4743014,level=99,races=510,recast_delay=0,slots=16,stack=1,targets=0,type=5},

Not sure why GC won't detect it though...

Not sure if it is still the case but there was two versions of resources. one that spellcast/gear collector used and the one for addons like gearswap. So that is prolly what he is speakin of, but he says its been updated. So maybe check the resources in your plugins folders as well as your addon folders and see if its in there?

Since the last update, whenever I have fought mobs they constantly flash and change into other mobs after they one of their autoattack, how fix do I? D:

That's correct. Addons use the Lua resources (located in Windower/res/), while the plugins use the XML resources (in Windower/plugins/resources/). We immediately updated the addon resources, but forgot about the XML resources until someone reported it not working. We have since updated the plugin resources as well (rerun the Windower launcher or type //update if you use the Update addon to download the latest resources).

It's likely something external (like Cupper). We already adjusted the Windower plugins we knew of that were causing this error. Unless we missed one, to make sure unload all Windower addons (//unloadall) and see if the problem goes away. If it does, reload them one by one to figure out which one it is. But like I said, my bet is on a different third party program.

**Teryu** · 2014-11-16 14:07

Alright I'll try that thanks.

**Ophannus** · 2014-11-16 19:37

I reloaded windower about 5-6x today(from just logging in at different times), tried //update and load updateresources, new items still missing from the resources xml. Is there a manual location to download or can you double check if the update for the xml resources is live please?

**Sithel** · 2014-11-16 19:37

I have the same issue with gear collector, logged out and back in and nothing is updating so everything should be up to date.

For me GC is not pulling Blackshell Hairpin and Sokushitsu sune-ate

Both these have short name version and neither short or typed out pull from GC.

*Edit
Just to be sure I went to the plugins > resources ...
deleted that folder, logged back in and did //load updateresources

This redowloaded the resources and still no workie.

Previous solution has been to uninstall and re-install.

I had this issue because my anti-virus deleted ffxi.dll and something got messed up with it. I replaced ffxi.dll and it works but that is probably why. It's detecting ffxi.dll as a trojan.

**Nem0** · 2014-11-17 04:11

thanks this is exactly what is happening just checked my logs.

UpdateResources is deprecated, that should not be used anymore.

This was a mistake on our site, we pushed the new resources but forgot to tell Launcher to download them. Sorry about that /.\ Should all be live now.

**Ophannus** · 2014-11-17 15:13

Confirmed working thank you =)

I am aware Spellcast is no longer actively supported and will die eventually (already?) but I am still using it since I don't have much time to play, more less to convert my stuff to the awesomeness of LUA.

Anyway, yesterday I did Salvage for the first time since the update, and on my WHM mule I found a very strange behavior with Spellcast. On floor one, I was able to do "/ma haste elva" as usual to haste my char. However, as soon as I was warped to the second floor I wasn't able to do that at all, can't recall the error but whenever I did that, I received a message. I had to use "/ma haste elvaanmoq" in order for haste to work. It was the same with other commands (cure, or any other).

Anyway, as soon as I warped out from Nyzul I was able to use the short version of my name again, but sometime later after few zones, it was broken again.

tl;dr: is the username autocomplete "semi-broken" with Spellcast? I don't use "shortcuts" plugin or anything, just regular Spellcast.

Posted this on FFXIAH the other day and no response, anyone here have any suggestions, or is this a bug?

Having trouble filtering out other people's messages (those not in my party or alliance). Under global/others, every filter is set to true, but I still see messages. Ditto for monsters, under global/monsters/others, all filters are true, but I still see monsters hitting, using TP moves, and countering other people and their trusts. I tried this both with the default filters xml and by copying to filters-NIN.xml (while on my NIN) and reloading BM, but it still doesn't work. (I did see BM indicating it loaded the NIN filters, so I know the file is named right, in the right location, etc.) Any suggestions? Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

**Trumpy** · 2014-11-23 18:12

On occasion I will have an issue where i command my mule via send to cast a spell and it wont work from then on. Usually i just switch over to him and cast the spell thru menu or a macro i have for it and it will go off and then usually I can do it via send again. I think it happens occasionally if he was already doing something else at the same time and it locks anything else out, but I am not sure. Sounds similiar to your issue. For me it usually happens in dynamis and very occasionally.

Do you also use Spellcast?
