Q: scanning for specific inscriptions

[Globi1]

Hi
I've been reading in the forum and using some bots since like 2015.

Now I'm doing some salvage research. Therefore I need my bots to keep m4m inscriptions. Right now I'm using the public vaettir bot.

Inspired by a thread called [GWA2] ModStructs For Perfect Items by Underavelvetmoon, I collected some Mod Structs for Items with m4m and other inscriptions.

Here are the Mod Structs of the same item with the mentioned inscriptions according to GWToolbox++.

inscription	+15vshex	none	m4m
Mod Struct (identifier, arg1, arg2)	0x27981D0C (10136 29 12)	0x27981D0C (10136 29 12)	0x27981D0C (10136 29 12)
	0x24B80100 (9400 1 0)	0x24B80100 (9400 1 0)	0x24B80100 (9400 1 0)
	0x24080139 (9224 1 57)	0x24080139 (9224 1 57)	0x24080139 (9224 1 57)
	0x25300272 (9520 2 114)	0x25300272 (9520 2 114)	0x25300272 (9520 2 114)
	0x246801E5 (9320 1 229)	0x246801E5 (9320 1 229)	0x246801E5 (9320 1 229)
	0x24080143 (9224 1 67)	0x24080143 (9224 1 67)	0x24080143 (9224 1 67)
	0x25300287 (9520 2 135)	0x25300287 (9520 2 135)	0x25300287 (9520 2 135)
	0x21580007 (8536 0 7)	0x21580007 (8536 0 7)	0x21580007 (8536 0 7)
	0x24080163 (9224 1 99)		0x2408021F (9224 2 31)
	0x253202C6 (9522 2 198)		0x2532043E (9522 4 62)
	0x2258000F (8792 0 15)		0x2608001D (9736 0 29)
	0xA7A81107 (42920 17 7)	0xA7A81107 (42920 17 7)	0xA7A81107 (42920 17 7)
	0xC0000000 (49152 0 0)	0xC0000000 (49152 0 0)	0xC0000000 (49152 0 0)

The 3 highlighted strings appear identically in every item with m4m insc I checked.

So I tried a modified CanSell():

Func CanSell($aItem)
	Local $LMODELID = DllStructGetData($aitem, "ModelId")
	Local $LRARITY = GetRarity($aitem)
	Local $ModStruct = GetModStruct($aItem)
	Local $MeasureforMeasure = StringInStr($ModStruct, "2532043E", 0, 1) ; modstruct for "measure for measure" inscription
	If $LRARITY == $RARITY_Gold Then
	   If $LMODELID == 2274 Then ; ruby maul
		  Return False
	   ElseIf $MeasureforMeasure > 0 Then ; measure for measure insc
		  Return False
	   Else
		  Return True
	   EndIf
	EndIf
    etc.
EndFunc

I tried both "2408021F" and "2532043E" but the bot always sells items with m4m inscriptions. Didn't bother with the 3rd string yet as I assume my approach is wrong.

Could anyone help me to get this modification to work please. I would like to be able to add other inscriptions like forget me not or aptitude not attitude in the future myself.

thx in advance

I'll answer my own question in case anyone is looking for a solution too.

The string is reversed in TB (or the other way around, dunno, I'm no data scientist).

an example:
TB: 0x 24 08 02 1F (thats measure for measure)
string a bot spits out: 1F 02 08 24

You see the pattern, just split the TB output in pairs of 2 characters and reverse the order, now they work for your bots.
