[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: ISO Alinco3 help...

	I've never used these features, so I'd like to make sure I don't screw them up. First, I made a noob and in Alinco3 I turned -on- the option for other characters to find unknown scrolls for him. I get the message in chat verifying that it's on, but no other characters pick up scrolls for him. Second, I'd like the noob to pick up high value items, but I have no idea how to set the burden/value ratio. Right now, there's a 1 in that field and during testing, it picked up every thing over 30,000p (including some high burden stuff) but while that works, none of the other search rules work. i.e. Alinco will not detect or pick up Epics, Majors, etc... I turned -on- the option to salvage high value items, but that doesn't work at all regardless of whether the high value stuff is picked up by Alinco or if I pick them up manually. So, can anyone tell me the proper way to do these things? I tried the 'global spellbook' and 'world rules' options but, apparently, I can't find the right combination. I know Alinco sometimes requires multiple options to be turned -on- for things to work, but which? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

	To get other characters to pick up scrolls for a character, I just turn on Detect Unknown Scrolls Lv7 then Trained Schools Only then All Levels then Use Global Spellbook. I haven't run into a problem with it. If you run multiple clients at once, make sure when you make changes to Alinco that you are either running just one client at the time or that the client where you made the changes is the last one you log out of. Otherwise the changes get overwritten. (Or unwritten depending on how you look at it.) As far as the value/burden ratio, I don't use it so I can't tell you how that works. -----signature----- Endy al-Unsane 275 Sword / Endy al-Unsane III 270 Mage Peerless Endy 275 Mage / Endy Mion 249 Bow Child of the Quiddity 220 Mage / Vorkosigan 220 UA Endy Tinkertide 275 Tinkerer Endy's Tinkering Calculator: http://the-unsane.com/
