I've been hunting for a Mask of Vanishing the last couple days, and have completed the area where that equipment can be found around 15 times. Magelo has been running most of this time, if not all. I am seeing no count progression on the NPC's even though I have killed dozens of the only type of NPC that magelo has ever seen drop the mask.

Is the accumulation of data gradual, once per week, once per month, or is it supposed to be dynamic? It is's supposed to be dynamic, something is wrong.

Supposed to be dynamic minus some caching but no more than a few hours so something is wrong.. I gonna look into this asap and will report back ! Thanks !

I am seeing the same problem for what it's worth. Nothing is being updated from my hunting/looting.

Been checking back in hopes of any update at all. For me personally the data collection was the number one reason for being here with the character sync being second to that but its going on two months now and from looking at the tiny amount of data on many creatures that are fairly old now it would appear this hasn't been working for much longer than I have been back as a member. Not trying to put undue pressure or anything , but it would be nice to know something if it can't be fixed or whatever the case may be.

Good afternoon,

I'm coming to this conversation rather late in the game. But I've taken note of the issue and will try to get you an update as soon as I can.

Hey guys,

Apologize for the late reply on that one... I have updated a little patch for Magelo Sync that will output in the log a debug on the active loot window and content being in it.

The issue is that I cannot reproduce the problem people have with the loot information not being collected. There is a chance it might be zone related (like VoA zones...).

So in order to help me out figure what and where this is going on, start with a old zone, simple access one. Kill a snake for example, let the loot window on for a few seconds and have a look at the Magelo Log (Ctrl + Shift + L)

You should see the following:

[2012-03-14 02:15:05] Active loot window detected for corpse: a lizardman broodling
[2012-03-14 02:15:05] Loot content: Brown Lizard Scale x1
[2012-03-14 02:15:05] Loot content: Dark Colored Fungus x1
[2012-03-14 02:15:05] Loot content: Tin Ore x1
[2012-03-14 02:15:05] Loot content: Ruined Animal Pelt x1
[2012-03-14 02:15:05] Loot content: Coarse Silk x2

If after a few tries, you don't see anything or it looks like there is an error in the log, please report it here with the zone you were in.

Thanks !

Today I tested your log view and went to kill something that had no previous observed loots to see and it did indeed update for me. I killed The Fabled Kobold Priest and it is now the first observed loot for that creature.
Before I didn't track exact numbers but I cleared sol b a few times and certain creatures still had incredibly low numbers for observed loots.
I will keep running magelo while farming and hopefully the numbers will go up
Thanks for checking into the issue, not sure what changed if anything but hopefully it keeps functioning normally for now.

Great to hear orbit4 ! So hopefully now it works for everyone in every zone... If someone could be so kind as to check in one VoA zone, it would be very nice, thanks !

I have noticed tonight that the database is not updating correctly. While the number of observed loots of mob x does increase with each kill, the items I am looting are not increasing in the loot table for mob x in database despite sync my character. I read your request about checking the log manager and did just that and posted the following example.

[2013-07-11 00:14:00] Active loot window detected for corpse: an aviak ruffian
[2013-07-11 00:14:20] Opening 'C:\Program Files\Magelo\Magelo Sync\magelo.log'
[2013-07-11 00:14:42] Syncing character id only 'Aanod'
[2013-07-11 00:14:42] Sending game content to server...
[2013-07-11 00:14:42] Detected game objects by GameMonitor (EverQuest 1.4.13) : 684
[2013-07-11 00:14:42] New detected game objects : 0
[2013-07-11 00:14:42] Sending observations
[2013-07-11 00:14:42] 1 observations for GameMonitor (EverQuest 1.4.13)
[2013-07-11 00:14:44] Aanod has been synced successfully!
[2013-07-11 00:14:58] Opening 'C:\Program Files\Magelo\Magelo Sync\magelo.log'

The log is similar for each mob I loot that it does not show the loot on it,(yes I did loot the items both by loot all button and individually one at a time) yet the number of observed loots for the mob does increase on the database.
