Since I know Lino is reading this forum, I will add a feature request here.

Would it be possible to add a way to generate a list of Unknown Level 8 spells? Preferably with the ability to generate the list with selectable schools for 3 school or item only types. Even a separate plugin would work nicely as well. I am looking for something similar to what spellbooker generated but any format would work.

Possible for sure and actually a good idea. There is 2 reasons though this might take a while:
- Currently Scrollreader doesn't have any "spell master list", it just compares the spell on a scroll with the learned spells of the character and guesses the spell level from the scarab. To tell which spells are missing I need a list of all possible spells first tho
- I don't have a single lvl 8 spell learned yet and most ways to acquire components are rather annyoing to me while I need at least 1 so I can do the testing myself

In other words: I will look into it, but don't hold your breath.

Craftbot can pull the list of spell id's from client info(cell.dat I believe) if that's one of the hold-ups, but I'd have to check to see if you have to have learned the spell or not (I don't believe it needs the spell learned to). I may be able to pull my use craftbot to pull the list with my mage as I do have a fair number 8's learned if that'd help things along.

Do you need to be able to CAST the spell for testing, or just learn it (I suspect you are NOT from FF,b ut if you are on FF I may be able to arrange some spell bits).

Just having 1 spell learned will do for my testing.
I will look into it for lvl 7 spells first when I get some free time, maybe until I get that done I can learn a lvl 8 on HG. If not I might come back and ask for donations on FF - if there is no skill req on learning them that is.
Do you have an example of the output format?

Well since I'm not sure if you are asking about what Craftbot's spell output or what the end result should look like I'll post some craftbot's spell output here first and then go into what the results of the plug-in could look like.

What Craftbot shows for spell info (and what it uses when it's doing it's buffing),

1426: Focus Self VI -- Increases the caster's Focus by 35 points.
1427: Focus Other I -- Increases the target's Focus by 10 points.
4304: Incantation of Focus Other -- Increases the target's Focus by 45 points.
4305: Incantation of Focus Self -- Increases the caster's Focus by 45 points.

The data Craftbot gets is sorted the way it was added to the client from what I can tell after going thru it to find the spell numbers I need to setup the plug-in to be a self buffing Tinkerbot.

I kinda like the way Spellbook keeeper listed it's output. It was setup to show each school in a block and then listed a single translated spell name aka Flame Volley VII (Infernae) on each line, opposed to spellname. That appears to be due the fact the client sorts the level 7's by what the translated would be in the In-game spellbook (aka focus 1 thru 7 in one block, ignoring the spelling listed on the level 7). That is NOT the case for the incantations, they appear in a block of Incantation's in the in-game spellbook that also show what it is (say Incantation of Frostbolt or Incantation of Force Arc) and thus we don't require the translation bit.

Really as long as it's sorted by school and has a way to output it to a text file so I can print it out, I can live with however it does stuff, the output to a easily printable format is the more important part, sorting by school is less so to me.

Ok, I looked a bit at my own code (most of scrollreader was written years ago) and at the craftbot code - not that much to do for compiling a list of unlearned spells it seems. I will try to get a version with export out later this week.

Lino .. I hate to throw another request, but, here it goes.


As I level up a new mage, a buying decal utility helps a lot. But I do not need to auto buy 'negative' and 'other' spells. My feeling is that you would need to 'hard-code' that in ScrollReader3 .. and that would take time.


Is there any way to filter the -Buy- of the 'negative' and 'other' spells?


Thanks

Ok, this took way more time than expected (12 hours so far) and the solution I have now leaves some room for improvement, but both features will be in the next version. I still need to do some testing, but I think I can get the release ready by Tuesday evening.

Sweet, I finally got around to installing the bug fix version, works nicely :^)
