FYI I tried asking this in the random question thread first but got no answer so trying here.
I've been using gearcollector for a while and recently tried to change my settings to have it access my storage and mog satchel. Here is my settings xml.
Whenever I run gearcollector I still get:
Starting Collection. Safe [ON] Locker [ON] Satchel [OFF] Sack [OFF] Storage [OFF]
I've tried unloading and reloading the plugin but doesn't help. Any suggestions?
Problem With Gearcollector
Problem with Gearcollector
I can't see what the problem would be.
the only things i see that are different from my old one is the
maybe try taking those two things out and see if that makes any difference.
This is my old one ->
Just a suggestion, doesn't mean it'll work, but cant hurt to try :)
also if i'm not mistaken, I wouldnt use <useStorage> unless you're specifically in your home nation... it might cause errors...
Code
<openStorage>false</openStorage> <debugMode>false</debugMode>

This is my old one ->

<global> <blockKeyboard>false</blockKeyboard> <blockMouse>false</blockMouse> <useSafe>true</useSafe> <useLocker>true</useLocker> <useSatchel>true</useSatchel> <useSack>true</useSack> <useStorage>false</useStorage> <autoHeal>true</autoHeal> <itemDelay>500</itemDelay> </global>

This is mine that works right now:

I'd just try setting useStorage to false and see what happens. I don't think many people use Storage.

Neither solution fixed it :/ I was going to use storage b/c I always change jobs in home nation. I copy/paste Byrth's xml and replace mine with it and end up with same results. I also tried deleting my .dll and redownloading and results in no change. Not using satchel/storage not the end of the world I guess but would be nice to have.
Make sure to check your XMLs(Can also check your Global.xml to make sure there was no change there either) to be sure there's not conflicting statements, i.e you're telling it here to use everything and there it's saying not to etc.
also you should be saving it after every change, even when you change something very small so that you can monitor for bugs etc. The only thing I can think of doing right this very moment would be to delete your settings file and remake a new one calling it "GearCollector" in the settings folder, and copy paste the version that Lakshmi.Byrth has pastebined
To me the whole thing sounds like a bug with the settings. If what i just suggested fixes it awesome, if not, you'll have to submit a bug problem to Windower, as that's the fastest way(that i know of) for them to see problems and be able to fix it if it's their side.

GearCollector will automatically collect gear based on a spellcast profile. Any gear not found in that profile will be stored automatically. Make sure to extract the entire zip into your plugins folder.
GearCollector is case-sensitive, make sure your xml tags and attributes are all in lower case, and that your item names exactly match the name you see in your inventory.
The settings file found in plugins/settings/GearCollector.xml configures the available options and storage sources.
To use:
Put global.xml in windower\plugins\spellcast
Be in your mog house
use //gc <job>[/subjob] [group1] [group2] ... [groupN] to start collecting gear.
//gc stop will stop the collection process
The subjob and group arguments are optional. If groups are specified, only gear belonging to those groups will be collected. If no groups are specified, all gear for that profile will be collected.
For example:
//gc whm will collect all gear for whm
//gc whm healing will only collect the group "healing"

An update for anyone reading this thread in hopes that it will solve their GC issue. I did resolve the problem realizing that my settings file (gearcollector.xml) was in the wrong location. I had it in:
windower\plugins\gearcollector\settings\gearcollector.xml
when in fact it should have been in:
windower\plugins\setting\gearcollector.xml
Just a derpy mistake. But anyhow thank you to Ciecle and Byrth for attempting to help me.

Anyone else having a problem with Gearcollector's Global file not ignoring items? I have it in there to not remove things like warp scrolls and RR scrolls and similar items from my main inventory. It's not catching any of it :/
The <!-- and --> make the text green in an xml doc and thus make it be ignored by the files. change the <!-- to < and the --> to > and you'll be good.

</global>no those are supposed to be just text comments in the document. it's all the stuff after that that is not green that is not getting run somehow.
Edit: I've written a lot of spellcast xml's and understand what is and what is not a comment. I just don't understand why GearCollector has 2 xml files in the settings folder if it's not going to use one of them. I'm just going to add the <ignore> section into the main xml to see if that works..
I just didn't use the right code tag for the colors to show up :/

Have you noticed that they're between <ignore> </ignore> tags?
...Nevermind, that probably means "ignore these in my inventory"
I don't really know then. I've never tried to modify global.xml that way.

I'll test it I guess. Mine seems to work though.
His is correct. You've turned them into elements when they were meant to be comments as the markup in his code blocks shows.
Yeah, I just noticed. ^^;
kk, did some testing and mine works fine, even using your xml file, so I think perhaps the issue is placement. Is your global.xml in your spellcast folder?
It is now <3 Thanks lol. Here's what happened, Once upon a long time ago i copied Global into spellcast folder BUT didn't add teh warp scroll items, etc, into it (was just base copy). Then I forgot about the one in spellcast folder and got all weirded out "why u no work?!" ^_^ all fixed now <3 ty lol
