The housing item search tool is ready for some alpha testing.
Right now all it has is very basic functionality for creating search queries. What I need tested for the moment is if the searches/sorting you do are accurate or not based on what you see on the real in-game one.
For features of convenience like non-resetting search boxes, next page/page skips, and an interface that doesn't suck, it'll come when the core functionality is solid.
Here's the link:

When comparing results, keep in mind that in-game you see 7 items per page max, while on this tool I temporarily set it to 50 since I didn't develop the next page buttons yet.

Nice job. It even shows the amount of fliers. I wonder how you managed to do that, lol.

Amazing job. I love how it shows the amount of flyers leftover. xD
Must've taken a considerable amount of time.

the only thing that took serious work was working around devcat's annoying choice of utf-16 encoding of their data output for queries. something like 30% of the code is to work around that.
And be sure to report any problems with it, will leave this up either until tomorrow or next weekend before working on a version with improvements.

I just tried it and it works great!:thumb:
Question: Do you still need more screenies of housing? I'm going on in a bit and if you still need them, I could stop by real quick.
Anyway, I give Osay a million thumbs for adding this. Now I don't have to lag while trying to find something to waste my money on!

don't need screenshots anymore unless you find a reason to (reporting bug or something).
Just need to know if you do an identical search in-game and it shows different on the web tool, or if you encounter other problems.

Brilliant :o, only thing its lacking is pictures. But I'd imagine that would be near impossible to implement.
Also, the search options reset after each search. Would it be possible to make it so it saves a Cookie that records your "server preference" for people that only play on 1 server? (maybe have an Options page where people can choose certain settings and Save them?). Its pretty good for an Alpha

It's really nice. Is there a way that you'd be able to maybe show the actual item pictures?

For the item pictures it would require a hugeass database on my end with all the items and a large amount of code to link the item names to them. It also wouldn't show the items in the right color since the color data is given in some weird format I haven't figured out.
So probably not.

He'd probably have to upload the thumbnail for every item in mabi.(and every possible color combination oh lawd)

Better not.
Although if you can show colour codings, you can maybe link to a Mabinogi character simulator or something.

Fliers. Brilliant.
This will replace Mabibook's tool soon enough.

I can get item ID (as defined by nexon, not sure if it's compatible with any simulators) and color code #1,2 and 3. If there's a sim out there that can be linked to and will work with that data let me know.
