EQ Auction Forge

# How it works

In game, type /outputfile inventory and load the dump it spits out.
Hit price check. It pulls live median prices and you can undercut by whatever % you want.
It builds a social macro with real clickable item links, the same kind a player would link in the tunnel. Took me forever to get these rendering right, btw.
Writes it to your character INI (makes a backup first), then you tab in and auction.

# New in 1.4.4

1.4.4 — antivirus false-positive fix. Some scanners (Windows Defender included) were quarantining the download as malware. It was a false positive — the old build packed everything into one self-extracting exe, which looks like malware behavior to antivirus heuristics even though the code never changed. 1.4.4 is built a different way (a normal program folder instead of a self-extracting exe) and now scans completely clean across every major engine, Defender included. The download is a folder now — unzip it and run EQ_Auction_Forge.exe from inside, keep items.txt.gz next to it, same as before.

1.4.3 — bug fix. Some items in the DB share a name (there's a newbie Mistmoore Battle Drums and a raid one, an Apothic Robe that's really two items, ~5,400 names total). It used to match by name and could link the wrong one in game. Now it matches by the item ID from your inventory dump, so the link is always the exact item you're holding. The 1.4.2 feature drop is below.

Live Log Monitor NEW

Watches your log and beeps you the second someone WTB/WTS something on your watchlist. Set shorthand aliases so you don't have to type the full item name. Now I actually catch deals while I'm tabbed out doing other stuff.

Vendor Value NEW

Punch in your Charisma and it estimates the NPC vendor price for everything, so you know what's actually worth tunneling vs. what you should just dump on a merchant.

Smart 3-Band Macro NEW

Expensive stuff becomes clickable links, mid-tier stuff becomes compact text (still gets price-tracked), and straight-up vendor trash gets yanked out and listed by bag slot so you know what to go sell.

# Other stuff it does

Live median pricing pulled from TLP Auctions
Undercut %, rounds to the nearest 5p so you're not posting 294p
Recent Postings, see what people actually sold an item for lately
Writes clean social buttons to your INI, leaves your hand-made ones alone
Backs up before writing, and never touches your page 1 action bar
Multi-select, click any column header to sort, tracks quantities
Bags-only filter so your worn gear doesn't clutter the list
Auto-tosses worthless newbie junk (backpacks, bread cakes, etc)
~133k item DB bundled in, so it works offline, no website to dig through
Pure stdlib python, one file, runs on whatever Windows python you've got

# Screenshots

EQ Auction Forge main window — the main window. your bags on the left, the auction list on the right. colors flag krono, vendor trash, and stuff that's drifted off the market.

Macro builder showing generated INI output — the macro builder. it spits out the actual INI text, pricey stuff as clickable links, the rest as compact WTS lines.

Log monitor watching the tunnel for WTB/WTS — the log monitor watching the tunnel. someone WTBs something on your watchlist, it grabs you a /tell ready to paste.

Watchlist editor — the watchlist. drop in full names, aliases, or just a keyword and it'll catch anything that matches.

Settings window — settings. krono rate, undercut, your charisma, and the junk-filter list all live here.

# "is this gonna steal my account?"

No. It never touches your account, your password, or the actual game client. Can't log in as you, wouldn't know how.
All it reads is your inventory dump and your log file. All it writes is social buttons into your character INI, and it makes a .bak copy before it does even that.
The only times it talks to the internet: pulling prices from TLP Auctions, and a github check to see if there's a newer version. That's the whole list.
It's not phoning home or shipping your info off to Microsoft or Big Brother or whoever. It's a tool I threw together to sell my junk in the tunnel because I'm bad at remembering what stuff is worth, lol. That's the entire master plan.
It's open source. The whole thing is one python file sitting on github. If you don't trust me, read it, or get a friend who codes to read it.
