OK... I just logged in and can see my inventory again, but a much larger problem has just presented itself. I am merchant 3044, and I have 9 vendors, all created over the last 2 days. I have spent a week preparing for this patch as I am master Weaponsmith and wanted the transition to go smoothly. When I try to add more stock I am told that I am currently over my vendor limit and must remove one before I can have more stock.






I ran into the same prob yesterday. It seems fixed now.

I had the same problem until yesterday too. Last night it was fixed FINALLY. I just logged in... I can't add anything new to my vendors. I am 3 vendors under my limit and 2600 items UNDER my limit. Figure in I'm trying to relocate AND it's a three day weekend and I'm freakin screwed. I've always been the kind of person who understands games have bugs and I can live with them. But this has seriously wasted over a weeks time for me by next Tuesday for this to be fixed, IF even then. I am very upset, I can't complete tailoring orders, I can't move my items for lack of storage with my vendors cut off. In short I can't even function with full inventories. I have no combat skills, I'm only an artisan so thanks SOE.

This may seem a bit weird, but i think i found a new bug with vendors.


I removed some vendors to consolidate them into 1 just now. Ive been going through several different ugly vendors, but placing them and deleteing them none the less just for a laugh. So when i was looking at them, and zooming in and out with the camera. I noticed that the level of detail manager for new vendors is way off. as i zoomed in and out, they went from what they looked like in examine, so slightly off of what they were supposed to look like when i zoomed out a few meters from them. However on my old vendor with my items I'm currently moving over, this isnt happening, its just the one level of detail thats crystal clear no matter how far i zoom the camera in and out.


could someone else try this to verify im not crazy, please?


I know its not game breaking, but it is slightly annoying for some reason i cant put my finger on.


I tried turning off level of detail manager btw, and it still happens.

Have been unable to transfer structures with vendors in them. I was able to prior to publish 10. Am getting a message saying that I can not transfer a vendor and need to destroy it. Bothcharacters were master merchants (my main and one of my alts), both structures I tried it on were merchant tents, occured just outside Coronet and in Dark Avalon, Dantooine.

Hi,


today I found something weird. I placed two vendors weeks ago to test a location. I placed them within a day and put the same amount of money into booth of them.

While I checked the vendors status, I saw that one vendor has about 200 bucks left, the other was at -6k maintenance.


They either need much more maintenance when passing zero, or they needed different amounts for maintenance.

Did someone else experience such things, or can you keep an eye on your vendor maintenance the next fex days pls?


Read ya.

When storing backpacks on vendors, the items inside the backpack will count as one item, but the backpack itself will NOT be counted against the item limit. An empty backpack will count as 1 item.





I have Artisan' business III, the minimum to have ONE vendor and 100 items limit.



Yesterday i put in my vendor exclusively backpacks to sort of my merchandise per theme, around 30 backpacks, each backpack is more or less filled between 15 and 45+ items, totalling 600+ items, but i have came to know that backpacks -whether filled or empty- would count as ONE item, hence i am having 30 items listed for sale (listed by the count at the bottom of the vendor's window), and being 70 items below my maximum limit.



Today i try to take back one backpack to organise it and put it back on sale and i get the message "your vendor has too many items listed on it" quite weird when i actually removed items from this backpack. The day before everything worked just fine and today its a mess....now i have many items stored in my stock room which will go poof in 28 days, yipeee.



Could it be possible the vendor ignore the new patch and count every item within the backpack, instead counting the backpack and its content as only one item as specified?



Please Doc have you any information about this bug? Is it concerning backpacks or is it completely different? Are the devs hurrying fixing this? It is not as a fix for other classes who have not a time limit before all their items disappear and i have not enough lots to store everything i hold. Do you have any schedule about an hotfix?



Thanks

Doc,


Has anything been found out about this issue? I have vendors in a mall and the owner wants to get out of owning it, but the structure cannot be transferred with vendors in it. Right now, there are 8 vendors with thousands of items in it. If this isn't fixed, we're going to have to unload all the vendors, find someplace to store all the inventory (which will be impossible), and spend countless hours trying to select new vendors from the neon, chubby mish mash we get!


Thanks for any info you can supply.

I still can't post any new items.. I have Novice Merchant. 3 vendors, 750 items allowed. I have 3 vendors, with under 500 items. I get the 'you don't have the skill for this many vendors', when clearly I do. I tried getting rid of one vendor and using just the 2. Same error. Placing the 3rd vendor again.. I can create and place, but not initialize, same error. This is game breaking for me, I can't restock a thing, and my inventory is just piling up. I've stopped all production, and I won't be back to the game until this is fixed.

Doc,


Wasn't there supposed to be a counter that displayed how many items you currently have on a vendor? If so, where is it as I don't see it.
