All in One Bag?

Dnoelle · #1 11-21-2006, 11:12 PM

Visited family over the weekend and they were playing WoW. They had a UI mod that made all their backpacks into 1 large bag. It would be really handy in EQ2 as well. I get tired of trying to find an items ... which bag did I put it in? Has anyone worked on it? I checked the Bags/Containers page, and nothing seems to be a "all in one" version. If anyone is working on it, can you let me know?

Also, they had an auto-arange mod for their bags too. Not sure exactly how it works, but thought I would mention.

Thanks!

Agreed, that would be awesome!
/feedback in game as it can't be done by any of us...

The problem is that the game figures out the number of slots and fills them in itself. The best we can do is say "Do n columns" and even then its tricky, hehe.

The EQ2UI is much less modable, as SOE tries to keep a tight restriction on what you can do, particularly automation. Heck, we can't even have a pause in our in-game macros anymore.

Like Faetyl said, best you can do is feedback and hope =)

Thanks guys. I figured if it could be done, someone would have done it already. Hitting "B" helps by bringing up all my bags at once ... but it is annoying when it takes up your screen (thanks to all who made the bag mods that make them smaller though!).

I will definitely try feedback (and I encourage others too as well).

Here's hoping!

Yea it would be nice, but we really have it now. Just open all your bags, align them next to one another all nice and neat. Then use the toggle bags command; poof there they all are open and ready to use. /shrug seems simple to me.

Lol, just dreaming - what I'd love is to be ably to swap between graphical bag and text view... So many times, I know the name of whay I want and can find it in the alphabetical list when I'm at a merchant... but then spend 5 minutes mousing over icons looking for the stupid thing.

So, if it could be coded, that's the bag I would make. It's gotten better since they made the bag tooltips have an alphabetical list of their contents. But there's still so many ways inventory management could be simplified.

WoW has a mod that does just that Mother. It does come in handy at times, as it's an option to your regular bags and not a replacement.

As far as AIOI, I've used it and ended up getting rid of it because I like using my bags for separating items. Such as, one bag for all collectables, another or quest items, another for sellable items and so on.

However, you can pretty much achieve the same thing in EQ2 by using the following mod:

Set to Frame Only so that there is no Drag / Title box or Close X and the bags will become completely title-less with just the slots showing. Then simply align them up against each other and use the Open All Bags keybind. When open, all the bags will look as if they are one single bag.

Is it possible to set the bag that when I press ESC ALL bags close at once and NOT any single one? It's always annoying pressing 6x ESC when I forgot to press B again..

Options - Controls - Command Keys - Close Game Windows

or
