Description
SSSort sorts the scrolls and salvage in your main pack or side packs. It has a number of specialized sorting criteria for both scrolls and salvage. This is great if you want to make your scroll/salvage collection easier to browse on your tradebot, or just for your own sanity.

What's new
• Completely rewrote the plugin in C#.
• Removed the "Move delay" option (it's handled internally now).
• Removed the "Quiet mode" option (it's always in "quiet mode" now).

Download

Note: SSSort now requires the .NET Framework 2.0. If SSSort shows <No DLL> in Decal, be sure that the .NET Framework is installed, and then reinstall Decal (.NET must be installed before Decal).

This is a great plug in! I used it pre-tod, however I currently use Sort It! because it has been available. Is there any difference between these 2 or any advantage to using one or the other?

Thanks.

!!!! Digi! Yay happy

Mal, I think the main difference (and Gouru or Digi can correct me if I'm wrong) at least for me, is that SSSort will allow you to JUST sort salvage. I've used Sort It! and I've not found a way to make it only do salvage, so with a mule with various other items, those items get sorted along with the salvage, and, compulsive as I am, it drives me nuts to have weapons or armor mixed in with salvage lol. (Now, again, Sort It! *may* be able to do that, but I haven't found the way to do so).

So I liked SSSort because it wouldn't mess with the other items in my packs (I like to sort them by color, then AL, etc. so Sort It! would re-arrange all that), but it would nicely sort all the salvage.

But, Sort It! does other stuff that SSSort doesn't do, so I personally think they complement each other happy

Thank you Digi! love love

on thing PRE ToD i found different with SortIT and SSSort was that SortIT wasn't too Dual-logging freindly. whereas SSSort seemed to have far fewer problems running (not causing crashs) that SortIT had possibly related to dual logging of chars/accounts

To be honest, I've never used Sort It! so I don't know what the differences/similarites are, though Ling's description sounds good happy . When I first added salvage sorting to SSSort, it had more specific options for sorting salvage than Sort It! did, but I'm not sure what Gouru has added since then. I'm almost certain that SSSort has more options for sorting scrolls than Sort It! does. Of course, SSSort only sorts salvage and scrolls, while Sort It! sorts lots of things.

Digero, why not incorporate the abilities to play "hide and seek" with scrolls into SSSort? Reasoning: first and foremost, would cut down on the number of plugins for handling scrolls; second, would be less hassle (maybe) for you?

What do you mean by "play 'hide and seek' with scrolls?"

Sorry, "hide and seek" with scrolls = ability to find a scroll no matter where it is, ID it and highlight it within packs. Would be like a "necked down" version of scroll manager, if I'm understanding the capabilities of SSSort correctly ... Would be very helpful for quick location on a scroll mule of a particular scroll you might look for. For that matter, would be helpful if you had a salvage mule with packs full as well. Type in the particular scroll or salvage you seek, and the program could highlight it like Scroll Manager did. I'd still love for scroll manager to be available, having the ability to look across characters for a particular scroll WAS most helpful!

Justed gave SSSort a try on my 3 trade mules full of salvage, and it works great.


Thanks saved me several hours of having to sort manual.

I am getting an intermittent error with SSSort. I can log out and back in again and the error will usually go away. I'll post a Decal export if that would be helpful.

The following error message pops up in the ingame chat window (I'm sorting salvage, but I don't think it makes a difference):

<{ SSSort v2.1.0.0 }> Error [AccessViolationException] See errors.txt in the SSSort folder for more info.

In the errors.txt file I see multiple instances akin to the following:

===[ 4/15/2006 10:57:20 AM - SSSort v2.1.0.0 ]========================

Plugin developers need to avoid calling ReleaseComObject on their filter references (most of which aren't even NEEDED anymore!). Just set the object to null.

Core.CharacterFilter = CharStats wrapper.
Core.WorldFilter = WorldFilter wrapper.
Core.HotkeySyste = DHS wrapper.

These aren't fully wrapped yet -- you will probably need to use interop. You can get to the COM interop underlying the wrappers with the .Underlying property - so a full world filter reference is already built into Decal.Adapter (Core.WorldFilter.Underlying.xxxx).


Last edit: in general, just don't call ReleaseComObject.

Like Haz said, it appears that another plugin is messing up world filter. It could even be GoArrow; I think I made the mistake of using ReleaseComObject in GoArrow (it'll be fixed in the next version...).

Anyways, as far as I can tell it's not a problem with SSSort, and the only thing you can do is to disable the offending plugin.
