[Merchant] Anya's Gems Emporium

[Lathlas]

Is it possible to make the gem merchant sell the full gems (at the full blown price of course)? now that would be really useful instead of having to click on cracked or dull or whatever the names are tens if not hundreds of time to go about transmuting them all myself. Or maybe the full gems are already in the inventory, because I honestly didn't check each and every gem, I just looked for the full gems since they appear a bit different on some of them.

There's another mod already that does this.

Have you deleted MERCHANT_GEMS2.DAT.adm file before running the game? If so does it also happen to newly created characters?
There are still problems in Torchlight with refreshing changed mods.

thanks for your swift response.

nope i havn't deleted anything, all i did was alter the value as you described. are you saying that i should delete MERCHANT_GEMS2.DAT.adm in order for it to work?

and i am playing on my lvl 60 something alch which i created and played before i downloaded this mod.

also, despite being lvl 60+, quite often when i visit the vendor i still come across cracked/dull gems, seems like the quality of gems you are able to purchase do improve as you level, but it doesn't reduce the chance of vendor selling cracked/dull gem by much. i think it will be better if you can remove or drastically reduce the chance of low quality gem from spawning as the character lvls.

Thanks, but I'm looking for a solution to increase prices for particular merchant not items and if this is possible only his selling prices.

The gambler thing is working pretty well for me.

Yes, it is some kind of solution maybe I'll try to mod it this way as gems black market.

Spawn of the gems in inventory is based on level, but I'm unsure if it's character level or deepest dungeon level. However I can force merchant to sell perfect gems and increase their price significantly (unfortunately merchant's buying price will also increase).

Do you think you could add the ability to cube 2 of the weaker chaos gems into the higher version (ex. 2x2% faster cast speed (adept) = a 4% faster cast speed (very adept)).

Cheers

Great mod....only complaint is how out of line Chaos Gems pricing is compared to their power, but there isn't much you can do about that. I think the other gem prices are fine, so I'd rather not jack them all up via making her a "Gambler" NPC instead of a "Merchant". I'll just keep buying 200g Chaos Gems and accept that I'm cheating just a little.

One possible workaround- it'd be a big hassle, and it'd create some new problems of its own, but it'd work....clone all the "gem" files to something like "storegem", and set the values higher, and Rarity to zero so they dont drop. Then create a spawnclass for "storegems" that was a copy of the "gems" spawnclass or whatever the current spawnclass you have your merchant set to sell. Basically, you'd just create copies of all the gems that worked the same but just cost more.

The only problem would be, I think, that you couldn't use "storebought" gems in the transmuter to upgrade

You could do the same thing with the recipes to solve that.

You could....but you'd have to do the whole thing five times over. Once for 2 store=upgrade, once for 1 store 1 natural=upgrade, and then 3 store 1 natural, 2 store 2 natural, 1 store 3 natural=double upgrade And that's for every grade of every type of gem...

I realize that, but if you're going to halfway fix the issue you might as well finish it. Gems that you can't transmute mixed in unidentifiably with ones you can is unacceptable. It's not that much work anyway since you could do a find & replace RegEx on them pretty easily.

really really love this.

can you make it sell perfect or star or higher grade gem? at higher price of course. the current system is still filled with crack and dull even in higher level

She should already. Her spawnclass just sells anything of 'UNITTYPE:SOCKETABLE'

Maybe you just need higher level/better magic find. High level gems are VERY rare.

I see Star Gems occasionally with my level 64 Destroyer with max out magic find skills.

I think if you change the '<FLOAT>PLAYER_LEVEL_FOR_MERCHANT:1' line in her unit, then she can sell higher level items more frequently.

Or you could change the rarities on the gems themselves so they show up more frequently.
