SO this actually works worse than before... any ETA on the fix or can you revert the changes until it's fixed??  I never lost anything in the birdbath before but now I'm scared to use this!!

I have used it and it works fine for me every time. Don't use it in a congested or raiding zone and don't try using it from your bank.

any way to get gamparse to report spell damage? For some reason I am only seeing melee damage and wizards are not showing any damage.

Hi Wall2k - There should be no issue with this besides the occasional UI defect showing "Lore Item Detected" that will affect you until you camp / zone.  A fix for this has been posted to the eqemu forums and is awaiting a developer to have time to review / submit.  Would then require hunter to update to that source code for the server.

Reverting these changes, if desired, should be easy - change the bagtype of the augmentation sealer to something other than 53 (find the bagtype of a bag and use that) and adding back in the bird baths.

If the worse thing is that a user needs to zone if they get a Dupe Lore Item message, then I'll just leave it the way it is, and hope for a fix to go live in the source code asap.

Should be safe to use, just don't delete any items manually after getting such Lore message when you remove an Aug. Zone first to verify the items you have.

I'll leave the commit for Trevius since he did the last one but he is pretty quick with things so if it works out then it should be in fairly soon.

What I have found is that sometimes after adding or removing an aug from an item, the aug's description text does not disappear from the window.
I think this may be causing the duplicate lore item problems.
If I close the bag and re-open it, the text is gone and everything works normally.
I haven't had any duplicate lore messages since doing this.

Hi Valadra - this should be unrelated to the issue.  Just a simple issue of the order of operations.  IE:  Putting an item on your cursor, then removing items from your inventory vs removing items from your inventory and then putting them on your cursor.

Well I lost 3 items, luckily only some rings and pauldrons... I did get them back after relogging but still NOT gonna try this thing on my epics or tier armor!  Seems to happen more often when removing augs so I suggest not using this to remove augs (at least) until it's fixed.

Not sure why you are having such an issue. I have been doing lots of reauging, moreso that i have done before and I have not had any issues. What zone are you auging in?

If you have a crap connection (either connection sucks or you get a lag spike) then yes you will have issues but being that you just need to relog it is not a big deal.
So far no one has credibly reported item loss.
Everyone has said "omfg my shiz is gone and I had to relog"

...

Yea what if Hunter stuck by his "No refunds at all period" policy and you had to use the bird bath.. correction chose as augs are not required, and you lost that epic weapon or that tiered armor.

On topic: If you discover any issues or bugs beyond what has been brought up so far please try to provide as much detail as possible, screen shots if a message appears on screen, fraps if you happen to run it while using, stuff like that assists in figuring out and fixing issues.
Other information may provide clues as well such as which zone you used it in, how many where in the zone, where you removing aug or adding aug.
Be detailed so the person who wrote this code can debug it as needed.
Thank you.

I got the "lore item deleted" thing, the aug was on my cursor so I put that in a bag but no item appeared on cursor as usual.  I instantly camped out and came back.  After coming back, the aug I put in my bag before I camped became the "lost" item instead (!!) and then the aug was on my cursor.

First time this was in nexus, so I moved to FG and had the same thing.  Don't think it's lag or anything I had a perfect connection all night.  Like I said before I used the birdbath in nexus (and FG) all the time and never had 1 issue, now bam 3 in one day, don't think that's my connection there's obviously a bug here.  You may get your item back but some people did not.  Fair warning.

Hi Wall,

I have not heard of a single person that has lost an item on that so far.

Do you know any users that have had an item lost that did not reappear?

I recall someone in /ooc saying that it happened to him the other night, then about 2 minutes later he said that he found it in a bag.

The issue is that your client has gotten confused as to what item is what.  This means when you put your aug (really your item) into your bag, you will log / zone and find that the aug (really your item) has turned into an item in your bag (as the server knows it really is) and the augment is on your cursor.  This makes it confusing in that you may think an item is missing when, in reality, its simply in another slot than where you thought it was.  This is why you are advised to zone / camp if this happens so that you do not accidentally lost armor if you delete "that stupid augment (really armor) that I dont care about and just want to get rid of."

Yes if you delete the aug you don't want you're actually deleting the item/gear instead, that's the problem and that's (probably) how people have lost items. 

Sure if you come here and read forums and know to immediately camp out and not delete any items if you get that error message you will probably(?) get your items back but not everyone reads forums (unfortunately including the rules thread Smiley

Yes that is a valid point and I say its the players problem.
People do not need to troll the boards as hard as we do but if they want to avoid many common issues they should spend 20 or 30min on the forums and use the search feature as well as reading the threads in the news section.

edit: teh is the, troll speak is innate it seems.
