  • About Automatic NeedGreed
  •  

Automatic NeedGreed is a tool which takes control of the loot roll window in Warhammer Online and automatically selects the adequate button for the user.

Due to massive complaints and suggestions concerning this addon, I made some major changes in version 0.92:

- NeedGreed triggers from now on only in RvR zones like scenarios or open pvp zones. Since the base idea of this addon was to eliminate annoying loot window messages during rvr combat, it was a necessary change to justify this addon on a base level.
- Added LibSlash support for functions
- Added the possibility to change the need/greed/pass behaviour for <career items>, <race items>,<potions>,<all career and race items>,<crafting items> and <unusable items>
- Added support of templates for this behaviours, which can be switched and set up independently
- Added a level range for items, which can be manually set between 0 and 10

Version 0.92b:

- Changed the level range to a up-level-range and down-level-range. The down-level-range is the item level beneath your characters level, the up-level-range is the item level above.
- You can now choose Select besides Need,Greed and Pass, which allows you to perform a manual selection for items.
- You can now turn off NeedGreed via a slash command.

Slashcommands:

/ngswitch career,race,usable,nouse,pots,crafting,statusmsgs,onoff
/ngtemplate 1-4
/nglvlrng 0-10 (v.0.92a)
/nglvlrng 0-10 0-10(v.0.92b)
/ngstatus

Possible setups for
- Career items: need/greed/pass/select (default: need),
- Race items: need/greed/pass/select (default: need),
- All career and race items: need/greed/pass/select (default: greed),
- Items with no use: greed/pass/select (default: pass),
- Potions: need/greed/pass/select (default: greed),
- Crafting items: need/greed/pass/select (default: pass)

The default level range is 5, which means that for example a lvl 20 character will may roll for items with a level range between 15 and 25.

Examples:

Instead of Need, you want Greed to be the automatic selection for race items:
Type in "/ngswitch race" for Pass and again "/ngswitch race" for Greed.

You want a item level range of 3 (v.0.92a):
/nglvlrng 3

You want only items which are 5 levels above your character and 2 level beneath (v.0.92b):
/nglvlrng 2 5

You want to see the actual status of NeedGreed:
/ngstatus

You want to switch to your 4th template:
/ngtemplate 4

You want to switch status messages on or off (v0.92a):
/ngswitch statusmsgs

You want to turn of NeedGreed:
/ngswitch onoff
You want to turn it back on:
/ngswitch onoff

Requirements
-Libslash

ToDo:
- Filter stats on items the character doesnt need (i.e. strenght for a caster)
- Filter crafting items the character doesnt need
- A configuration window
- ...

Further suggestions and even complaints are still very welcome.

    This mod atm is not very userfriendly, a graphical interface with drop boxes for tailoring need/greed/select/pass on the whole spectrum of items would turn this mod from conditionally usefull but user unfriendly, into the one of the top 10 mods that I would recommended everyone get.

    What if I want to Need for everything I can need on, but if I cant need it, greed it...? but at the same time there are just somethings I will never want to need or greed...

    A discrete pair of buttons side by side I could set off to the side on my UI, where one button toggles the whole system on/off (so I dont have to stop to type in rvr when i decide I want to pass on things for teamates, or when I want to auto everything and be greedy...), the other opens up the customization window where I could specifically tailor the need/greed/select etc conditions across the whole range of items would make this app amazing.

    Lost a pair of sentinel boots yesterday because of this addon. Using it is pretty risky.

  • I also would like an option called "Greed-if-cannot-Need; Otherwise-select" (Maybe a bit long, but you get the idea)

    how can i make this work all the time, whether in RvR or not?

  • I would like to see an option to let this mod always choose "greed" when "need" is not selectable. But let me choose myself (between need,greed,pass) when "need" is available.. this would be great time-saving.

  • How come every time I try and type in /ngstatus or any of the commands I get an "Unknown Command" Error? I may be wrong, but aren't we supposed to type them in chat?

  • This seems to auto pass on the halloween drops, not sure which setting to change for that as i only have crafting items set to pass on. Have removed it for now.

    lordal, you have a great addon here.. but it causes the game to crash on me. It will first start hitching and then move on to a CTD. I installed the addon because my guild had been running Gunbad on several occasions and if you've been there.. you know there is a lot of loot popping up and I hate having to hit the need/greed button in the middle of a fight. Could it be that the addon can't handle so many items popping up? It seemed to be working fine until we had several item loots happening at once.

  • Had that happen to me today, completely froze my whole system.

    If you want to manually select all the items your character can equip (besides potions and crafting items) and greed for everything else, than this is the right setup.

    I have the exact same settings. Honestly, I suggest these be the default settings.

    thank you for adding selec t as an option,question,what are items that have niether race nor class as a requierment classafied as?

  • lordal said 

    If your item is neither a class nor a race item it is usable for all (/ngswitch usable). Nevertheless these kind of items (and race items) will be checked for required skills. If they do have required skills and your toon doesn't have this skills, the item will be classified as a "no use" item (/ngswitch nouse).

    I know this is kinda complicated, so I will update the infotext asap to state more precisely what kind of items there are.

    Ok, kinda irritated. Lost out on a blue ring in an RvR cause they don't have classes. So what are they classified under in this mod so I don't miss another one?

  • lordal said 

    Every item, which is not restricted to a career or race is usable for all careers and races(/ngswitch usable). So if you dont want to lose another item you may have to set up either "need" for usable items or the "select" option which will show up the common loot window.

    I recommend using the select option for usable items and race items. In the current state of this addon, you would only get loot messages for items, which can be equiped by your toon. This means in rvr combat situations you wouldnt be diverted by annoying loot messages, except in cases you may be interested in this item.
