Prices

by algritz Modified December 9th, 2011

Since, Rift isn't very good are remembering prices, I figure I'd share the add-on for the benefit of having a "Price list" that was available in game, not on some web site or excel spreedsheet if you used any.

Features:

Displays a list of items and their prices in a scrollable window, that can be shown via the "/prices" command

Installation Instructions

Download the addon
Open Rift
From character select, click the "Addons" button at the bottom
Click the "Open Addon Directory" button
Wait for the directory to open up
Put the Prices folder into that directory
Return to Rift
Click "Refresh"
Play the game!

Usage

In order to update the values displayed in game, you need to edit the "prices.lua" file in your saved variable. format is :

item_prices = { { { "item name # 1", "price #1" }, { "item name 2", "price # 2" } }}

As long as this format is preserved, the addon will be able to display the list and its associated values

values are loaded only at login time. So it you need fresh values, logout, overwrite the content, then log back in.

To diplay the list in game type the "/Prices" command
