How to filter player corpses?

[rasthan]

On the progression servers, the yellow player corpse boxes are driving me crazy!

I've tried variants of the following, but can't seem to get it to work:

(ignore the spaces)

< seqfilters>
< section name="Filtered">
< oldfilter>< regex>Name:corpse< /regex>< /oldfilter>
< /section>
< /seqfilters>

Thanks!

Try <regex>NPC:2</regex> or something like that. There's an NPC flag for player corpses. I think it is 2, but I'm not totally sure.

Ah, that worked like magic. Thanks!

Also Name:corpse means you literally are trying to find a mob with a name beginning with the word corpse.

First let me say hello as this is my first post here!

Purple,

I must admit that I am new to both Linux and ShowEQ. I have gotten both working however and am running into trouble with the corpse issue as well.

I created a blank .xml file and entered NPC:2 into it and saved it. I selected this filter file from within SEQ but the corpses still appear.

Could you please take a moment to explain to my noob self what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Post the entire filter file here.
