Thanks for report. I'll take a look tonight.



Some details: I'm using a Dutch version of Windows 7, EVE client language is set as English. Keyboard is a "United States (international)" one. Only thing that seems to work so far is setting the "notation settings" to English (United States). Mentat works as b4 then and the EVE client let's me use the "." key on the numpad again.

I know you mentioned that an import feature from EVE Central is planned, but any idea when you may roll out with it? Right now, importing market data on multiple items at once is not possible. I have to go through each item in my Quick List and hit 'Export to File' , which is a long and tedious process (unless there's a way that I'm not aware of???).

Would be nice to import my Quick List at once into EVE Mentat...

As a hack you could copy MarketScanner.html to something and edit the "var ids"
Then load that up in EVE.
(You might need to make whats listed in "List of orders" match with what you put in "var ids").

I have the same problem with the comma and dots, can't use EVE Mentat until that is fixed, have to update orders manually sadly. If you can make us able to choose if we want to paste our prices with commas or dots then it will solve the problem.

Thanks a lot for this awesome tool !

The workaround I mentioned doesn't work for you? That is: setting "notation settings" to English(United States). It screws up my dates in excell-sheets but at least I can Mentat for now :P


Edit: had a glimmer of hope the 1.1.1 patch of today had fixed the issue, but no such luck. Workaround is still effective for me though.

I confirm the issue and I'm working on it.
Thanks for all your requests and workaround suggestions!

Yeah turning it into English (US) mode didn't change anything.
I have an AZERTY keyboard and it is usually set to French in those windows settings.

When I use the market browser data import/update (from client), only some of the data is updated. About 50% of my orders say they're fine, and the other half have the yellow highlight saying the data is too old. If I search that item in the browser it also says the data is too old.

If I manually view market data ingame of a specific item, then click cache import in the market browser, data for that item will update.

I'd like to do them all at once, any advice?

Edit. Ignore the above, I worked it out.

Test build: EVE Mentat 1.1.28

I've fixed issue with decimal delimiters. Now you are able to use system default delimiter for clipboard operations or choose it manually in preferences.

Looking forward for your feedback.

Hey, that's very strange, it's still not working for some reason.
When I try to paste the copied price from eve mentat, which has a comma, I just have that bzz sound.
If I try to paste just a comma in the Order price field, it works, but if I try to paste anything else, with the comma, it doesn't work.

If I try to paste a price with dots, it's same as before, it pastes 400m instead of 4m for example.


I was really not expecting that, this is pretty weird. I guess it's something related to windows and eve.

Did you play with EVE Mentat's preferences?
Could you send me screenshots with all described cases?

I think CCP really screwed it up now.... It seems that when I use my local (Dutch) settings, I can't paste anything with a decimal separator of any kind anymore into a market order....
So I can't even test if the Mentat test build is working as intended.


Don't really have time to double check and fiddle now but will get back on this.


Edit: double checked and fiddled anyway, who needs sleep right? The EVE client will simply not let me paste any ammount of isk into the modify order textbox that has a separator in it as long as I use the Dutch notation settings. Can paste 1000 isk fine but 1000,01(comma) isk ends up just leaving an empty textbox. 1000.01(point) ends up as 100001 isk.

So yeah, no way to test if your new build works for me till CCP figures that one out.What?

Confirm. It doesn't work after today's patch.
I'm totally confused...

Just have created detailed bug report to CCP after deep investigation of this issue.

For those who can't trade with this I recommend to configure price increment to 1.00 ISK in EVE Mentat, and remove all cents from every order's price. It's sad of course, but can be temporary workaround.

Just be sure to update your tritanium buy orders manually ppl ;)

Well thanks for the smart temporary solution I hope they realize how annoying it is now hehe

This is a great application, I actually use it because I can't find better, but I would GREATLY appreciate more corporation support added. I'd like to be able to sort and filter all corporation wallet journals and transactions, not just self only.

If I'm missing how to do that, I'm sorry, I just can't seem to find corp level wallet info and I'd really find that useful.

Advanced corp support already was planned and will be implemented soon I hope.

I love this tool!

However its not deleting all the files from the CachedMethodCalls folder for the market import.
I create about 60 files per min from 3 EVE clients.

I ran a test for about one minute.
57 file created. EVEMentat said "51 files imported", however all 57 files are still in CachedMethodCalls.

Delete old files on import is definitely checked.
(I am clicking the cache import button on the market browser page)
Default import source is EVE Cache

EDIT: Running as Admin, and using "Import ALL" doesn't del the files either.

EVE Mentat doesn't modify EVE client's cache. It's against EULA.
"Delete old files on import " concerns deleting files from temporary folder which is intermediate between cache import tool and EVE Mentat.

To omit previously scanned market data use option "Preferences / Cache import tool / Import only new market data" instead.
