Hello!

First of all thanks a lot Tristantio for this tool, this is a wonderful addition to the server.

Was using the windows version on my virtual PC since a few days ago.

Now playing Everquest on my macs using Wine, and I would like to know if anyone knows how to enable this tool with this. I would like to continue to contribute. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Thanks a lot!

I'm using it on OS X, running EQ under WINE like you (saw your post in the Mac/WINE thread). The shell script on tristantio's page works great for us. You'll need to open it in a text editor and change the LOGDIR=... line to point to the log file under your P99 install. For me, it's:

LOGDIR="/Applications/Project\ 1999.app/drive_c/eq/Logs"

Make sure any spaces have a backslash in front of them, like above.

Once you've done that, you can run the script from Terminal (which is how I do it). I don't know if you can make it run just by double-clicking; that opens it in an editor for me, but I think I may have changed the from the default. If you just save it to your home folder (usually /Users/yourname) you can run it by opening Terminal and typing: ./eqAuction.sh

Hope that helps!

I'll try that right away. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Hello! Me again [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Small update for those who are in the same situation.

Everything works fine now. Followed Phobus advice and also just had to make the script executable (with "chmod +x filename.sh" ) and now I can run it easily from Terminal by typing ./eqauction.sh

Thanks!

P.S.

I love it when someone replies to my tell with, "Yeah, I'm still selling that item, but I auctioned it six hours ago. How did you know I still had it?"

It does, at least on my Palm Pre running WebOS.

The menu is a little wide for phones still and wraps, but I have the proper viewport scaling so it will size to your phone's screen width instead of requiring you to zoom in etc

bump for sticky status

What would it cost you to be able to run this so it could track more than one auction at a time from a person?


maybe say 3 or 4 shouts?

[tristantio]

I'll do some size checks and see how much space the database is taking now, I may be able to do the last 3 /auctions.

[Flunklesnarkin]

I think even two would be nice


so you could have a WTB shout and a WTS shout

[tristantio]

Each person is now able to have 3 unique auctions.
