ME Bug. What ME Bug?

[mercury]

Skint or Strapped for Cash? - there is a Use for You​

We all know by now the feeling that something needs to be thrown at GoA for this prolonged bug in CMs. Fear not! Help is at hand. Its is a bug of display only - all items are there, you just can't see alot of them.


Requirements : 2 toons (a bb is convenient), one without cash, one with.

Instructions :

a. Go to a ME.
b. Do your search with the cashless toon.
c. Click the item as usual.
d. If you can't see it when the Player screen opens, scroll to the first page with blanks.
e. Right click a blank space and click Buy.
f. You will get a message 'You do not have the xp yg needed to purchase item z.
g. Do this until the one comes up you want.
h. Note its position.
i. Now R Click that space with rich toon and you will buy the item. If you haven't got a bb you will need to re-log, but even that's better than waiting until the house owner logs on as GoA suggests.

(An empty slot gives you an error message with the slot number. Ignore)

Excellent tip and works a treat /repped

oh and once you have clicked buy on a valid item on the ME buy window (the one that would cost you 20% extra) the item appears dynamically in the actual CM's page you are looking at with the other char with the cash.

I have made redirects to this thread in mid, alb and hib forums on Glastonbury and Prydwen/Excal Cluster so it can help everyone and left it in the "Game Advice" forum and made sticky

ow and bluesky if u're a mod, u're the better one of em atleast one that does usefull stuff on all 3 boards then if u're not then they should consider u

 

[toxii]

n1 finding out the fix for it,gw

however, where is goa right now, all this time we have been expecting a fix and all we get is a user-end solution when goa is not being clear

Didn't work for me though, this trick.
On all the empty slots seem to have the same item and i tried them all
Even on different houses.

 

[Azathrim]

Worked fine for me. You sure you hadn't targeted another item so its text was yellow?

 

[Ellwynn]

Correction, i did something wrong, it did work fine

what i found weird is: sometimes, after the buy attempt, on the toon with the cash i can see the items i tryed to buy with the cashless account, sometimes not
