MorgDKP2
MorgDKP2 is a full featured mod that allows the master looter (ML) to control the loot distribution process. Only one member is required to have this mod. MorgDKP2 is also capable of tracking DKP and outputting the DKP string for import into eqDKP using a custom php import script.

Video Tutorial
BlueWarlord has created a video tutorial for setting up and using the MorgDKP2 system to run a raid. Find it here.
BlueWarlord created another video tutorial for setting up and using MorgDKP2 with eqdkp/eqdkp+. Find it here.
Thanks BlueWarlord!
phpRaid Integration
If you use eqdkp+ for setting up raids you can export the raid attendees (choose lua format) and save the file to the MorgDKP2 folder. When you open the invite list (shift-click) the day of a scheduled raid the phpRaid data will pop open in its own frame.
ClassLoot Integration
If you have ClassLoot (r98 or higher) running as well as MorgDKP2 when a new item drops the classes/altclasses allowed to bid for the item will automatically be filled in if the item is in ClassLoot's database. Only if the classes are NOT already set. Thanks Pneumatis for allowing me to hook your DB:)
Importable item database
There is now and item DB included in the ImportItemDB folder of MorgDKP2. It has as many Northrend raid items I have seen so far with classes set. To import it copy the file to the main MorgDKP2 directory and load WoW. Once imported delete the file from the main directory. Note it will not overwrite any items you already have set.
Using MorgDKP2:
Basic use is identical to MorgDKP. Documentation for setting up the web scripts etc still applies. Will post more information when I have time.
Suggested to start:
- Install the webscripts to the plugins folder of your eqdkp install and install it through the admin plugin menu
- Export your DKP from the website save in MorgDKP2 folder (even if your database currently has no members!)
- Enter WoW and make sure there are no errors
- Track your raid etc
- Click export raid(s) and copy the string
- Click Import raids on the admin panel of edkp and paste the string into the window
- Win!
Webscript help
Export standings
Used to export member DKP, events, aliases, and database information (needed for proper import) to the in game mod. Access through the eqdkp admin menu (after installing plugin)
- Select your game timezone (may not match your actual timezone)
- Select if you want to export member ranks
- Ignore ranks - do not export ranks and hence do not use rank sorting for item rolls
- Use all ranks - export all ranks for all members and use rank sorting for item rolls (only way to activate rank sorting)
- Only export [rank] - only export the selected rank from the website. Caution will only export members of that rank so any unranked members or members of different rank will not be in the file.
- Enter the directory and in game name for up to 5 eqdkp installs (ie if your website is http://sodalityoftheconstant.com/aqdkp/listmembers.php? then you would enter aqdkp and whatever name you want it called in game.)
- For eqdkp+ multiple pool install only enter the main directory name the pool names will be your actual pool names
- For installs in base directory (ie http://eqdkptest.sodalityoftheconstant.com) enter - for the directory name
- Click export
- Right click the link and choose save as .. save in WOW/Interface/Addons/MorgDKP2 directory.
- Load into WoW or reloadui if already in game.
Import raids
Used to import raids recorded with the MorgDKP2 in game mod. Click export raids in the LDB tooltip or export raid in the raidtracker for a single raid. Copy the DKP string (Ctrl-C) and paste it into the editbox. When editing names or adding people you do not need to capitalize them.
- Click parse DKP string
- Check the data and make sure the import looks correct:
- If you have any aliases to import they will be shown with ADD beside them. To not import the alias simply erase the editbox.
- If you have any DKP changes they will be listed. As above erase the value or the names to not import. Can add/remove names as well.
- For each event the name, note, value, attendees, and any items will be shown. Edit them if necessary. To not import a whole event (including items) erase it's name. Erase and item or item value to not import the item.
- If you are using zerosum or skall with zerosum check the use zerosum checkbox.
- Click enter final data:)
Note: - Ranks will only be used in sorting if you export all ranks and set the weight of each rank in the in game options (database options) Higher values should be higher ranks. Also rank sorting is ONLY used on the lootframe rolling window. It is not used anywhere else such as the MorgBid2 check or raid invite tab. This means that the MorgBid2 results frame may show a different winner.
Loot window help:
Here is how the loot window is designed to work for those having trouble understanding it. When you loot a corpse if any items are above the loot threshold the mod will:
- Check each item and if any have not had their classes set (who gets to roll for the item) it will automatically open the item edit page to that item. This takes priority over all other possibilites. ie You edit this item and start the roll for it. The mod checks again and there is still another item with its classes unset so it opens the item edit page for that 2nd item NOT the roll window for the auction you started. If you want to see the roll window simply right click on the 1st item again.
- If no items have unset classes the mod next checks if any items are currently in auction. If so it opens: roll summary window if more than 1 item being rolled for or the single item roll window if only 1 item.
- If none of above conditions apply no window automatically opens (ie not roll window or item edit window) and you can right click any item to open edit window (or roll window if auction started) or alt-right click any item to start ALL queries which will cause the roll summary window to open.
Note: - If you want to use MorgDKP2 with fubar you need to have Broker2Fubar installed or it will only show a minimap icon.
Whisper commands: - whispered to someone running morgdkp2.
Waitlist
mbid wait[+/-] [main] => main only necessary if you are whispering from an unknown alt
Bidding
mbid itemid/itemlink [need/take/pass/offspec] [bid] => itemid/link must be included - bid only for BidWar
Dkp queries
dkplist [pool/s] [class/all] [class] ... => pools only if you want to see what pools are available. pool to get the dkp for that pool (leave out for default pool). all for all members in the raid (if person running morgdkp2 is in a raid), guild otherwise. You own class is automatically included so a pally whispering dkplist rogue will get paladin and rogue.
Webscript note: - The MorgDKP2 webscript requires:PHP 5.2.3 or greater and MySQL 5.0.7 or greater. If you are having issues with special characters make sure your MYSQL database is in UTF-8.
Supported DKP modules:
- Fixed DKP
- Zerosum DKP
- Percent DKP
- Relational DKP
- Random
- SKall
- TakeBid
- BidWar
Syncing:
Options
- Broadcast - enable to send sync messages out during a raid to registered listeners. Usually one person will probably broadcast to the backup people in the raid but you can have more than one broadcaster.
- Receive - enable so your mod will act as a listener and receive syncing events from MorgDKP2 installs which are broadcasting.
- Overwrite raid - enable to overwrite the current raid with the new raid info (in the initial sync) if you have already started a raid. Useful when you zone in to the instance late after raid is already in progress to get the raidlog from the whole run. If you haven't started a raid overwrite is done by default.
- Manual Syncs - ie Sync options/members/items/all/initial sync. Click one of these buttons to manually sync to the current raid.
Sync Details
- Syncing will not be enabled until a raid has started and then the mod will check for sync necessity every 60s.
- When the raid starts or someone joins the raid with receive enabled the broadcaster will send out his eqdkp data (boss events/values, aliases, current pool, certain options, current raid data, and current member DKP) Current member DKP will only be updated in the listener client if it has a newer timestamp or if they are members of your current raid. The broadcasters current raid will overwrite the receivers current raid unless Overwrite raid is off.
- When you make changes to important values the mod will schedule a sync and send those changes to the listeners throughout the raid.
What is synced?
- item database changes (value/classes)
- raid tracker changes to items (value/winner/event)
- custom events
- event changes (value/name/note/deletion)
- alias additions
- BOE items (ie hand out through your inventory and manually trade)
- DKP change events
- item costs different from actual DB cost (ie TakeBid or offspec auctions)
- items incorrectly assigned to ML/DE in listener client
- full current raid sync
- initial waitlist and waitlist changes
NOTE: - There is generally no need for the manual syncs unless you specifically want to transfer the complete itemDB or the listener wants ALL of your MorgDKP2 options. The complete member DKP and necessary options are transferred when the initial sync is sent at the start of the raid (if you have Broadcast enabled and there are listeners present in the raid)

Morg is it possible to turn of the feature, that you can't bid for items which you have? Because there are some weapons, which you can equip two times.
May have found the problem with bosses containing -> '
MorgDKP2.lua
{ ["ItemName"] = "Torch of Holy Fire", ["Zone"] = "Naxxramas", ["prefix"] = "eqdkp_", ["Class"] = "Weapon", ["SubClass"] = "One-Handed Maces", ["eqdkp"] = "Bogus", ["Costs"] = 13, ["Player"] = "Sarothe", ["Time"] = "01/29/09 21:38:51", ["Boss"] = "Kel'Thuzad", ["ID"] = 40395, ["Icon"] = "Interface\\Icons\\INV_Mace_82", ["ItemLink"] = "|cffa335ee|Hitem:40395:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:80|h[Torch of Holy Fire]|h|r", ["Quality"] = 4, },
Under "raidlog" in the same file...
{ ["note"] = "KelThuzad", ["name"] = "KelThuzad", ["attendees"] = {
So boss names are correctly being stripped of the ' for the event and boss name but loot is still being recorded under the boss name containing the '.
Could this be the problem?
S.
Sorry, Didn't see the slider for the take/offspec amounts. Shall configure it next raid.
Problem with the toon with crazy characters in their name has gone away! Thanks for the fix.
As others have found, I'm also unable to toggle MorgDKP2 without first ticking "Autozone". Easy to work around though for the time being.
We really like the fact that the bid window comes up during the bidding. We have a very happy group though that isn't that loot orientated so their aren't many loot squabbles.
Still no luck with loot from any boss with a ' in it's name.
Huge thank-you for all the excellent development you are doing with this addon.

Adding "Bank" character to a raid.
If you are using ZeroSum and would like a way to give out a bonus without throwing off your system then utilize this feature Morgalm added.
For instance click the box to add bank
Run your raid, and the "bank" earns DKP as a 26th member (or 11 in 10man)
Import your DKP standings to EQDKP(+)
The easy trick is to make an "alias" in EQDKP(+) that is the name of this so called banker character. I named mine Point Bank but anything that shows up in an import as Point, Bank, Pointbank, Banker etc etc all goes to the one "Point Bank" member.
If he is +100 dkp from phantom raiding, then you can give out those points for like an ontime bonus. Give 25 members 4dkp for being ontime and reduce Point Bank by 25 x 4dkp each = 100DKP. It zero's out and your system is still intact.
We have been doing this and it seems to be working pretty well.
Heya Morgalm, its nice to see that You are hard at work implementing suggestions we are giving. Thank You.
One issue cropped up since You decided not to support FuBar... Namely list that is populated when You hover over addon's mini-map button is not displayed fully. Its anchored Top-Left to button and is going outside of window thus making it only partially visible.

On this example i can see it fully but I cannot see next menu that i should get clicking to select i.e. Disenchanter. Other people told me that they cannot see whole basic menu.
Yea we have "said" do not do that, but then enforcing it becomes an issue. If we had the option "toggle" then it wouldnt be an issue if it is continued to be abused. A toggle that overrides the MorgBid2 option would be fantastic.
As far as waitlist you nailed it right on the head. 100dkp/25 members. If we have 5 waitlist it would be 100/30 members etc. This is a debate we are still having, but I think it would match up nicely with a zero sum dkp system. I will add a ticket
@azphat - that is the way morgbid used to work results only came up AFTER bids were in and you clicked the winner on the summary tablet for just that reason. But it seemed to be such a requested feature the new way that I added it in. I can't easily go back to the old way but I will add a toggle in so that you can make it not appear at all. You could also give the people you notice doing that warnings if you think it is motivated by greed:P
Waitlist members get the set amt of DKP you set in the sliders for each event. ie bosskill start end dkp/time. This is same as it would be using any dkp system. I assume what you are wanting is that when an item is won and the raid gets x points (ie 80 point item/25 raiders) the people on the waitlist alos get this award? I can prob add tyhat in the future if that is what you want. Make a ticket.
Is it possible for the results window to ONLY come up after the winner is announced? I believe you can turn that off in MorgBid2, but can it be a global feature for the master looter to do through MorgDKP2?
The reason I ask is if you do infact set Need to 100%, Take to 50%, Offspec to 25%, I have noticed some members will hold off on hitting the button until they see what competition they got. So if they dont see anyone bid with Need or Take then they hit Offspec and got a huge upgrade for 25% dkp. If the master looter could stop the results window during the process, then they could not do that and truely hit Need, Take, Offspec accoring to how much the item is really worth to them. Just an idea
Also, in Waitlist portion. I didnt see to much documentation on what that can/cant do. I see all the sliders and everything, but in zero sum is it possible for those waitlist members to be added to the raid and given the LIVE dkp that everyone else gets? I believe we can give a set amount, I was wondering if the mod can treat them like they are actually their so when it cuts everyones DKP after loot being awarded they would get their share right then and their.
I will check the turn mod on without autozone thing maybe I have a bug. If you bid in multiplications of 8 do you have the bidstep set that way so people can only bid in multiples of 8? If so that makes perfect sense as 23.5 is 8 less then 31.5. How did you get .5 anyway? I thought I rounded all DKP numbers? Same time bids has not been fixed yet too much in the Q:P
@ ank - how do you mean you can't set the bid?
Our guild uses a modified /roll system where the /roll is your number of 'points' to 100 (ie if I have 25 points then I /roll 25 100). We give 5 points per boss kill, subtract 70 points for winning mainspec loot, and cap points at 95. If I'm understanding correctly we could record the boss kills as custom events and give the 5 points within the existing program. All that would need modified would be the random loot section - it would need to take into account the number of points each person has when it does the rolls - and we would need to be able to put a cap on points.
Does this sound feasible or is it outside the realm of what you (or I if you would share the code) could do with the add-on?
with morgbid 2.5 and morgdkp 2.2 seem to have lost the ability to enter the bid ammount in morgbid2.5
also same problem as zazoo,have to click autozone before i can enable it.
regards Anka
My webthingy is working perfectly no problems with the ' in bossprogress or whatever. makes sure your bosstriggers are set correctly.
Only thing I'm having problems with is bids in bidwar. Im not yet sure if the same time bidding bug is fixed. but I found another problem
We bid in multiplications of 8. when a player doesn't have the amount for the next step but more then the current ammount. he will be reset to their maximum dkp (all-in as we call it) if someone else wants to outbid this his bid will be the odd number from the All-in bid + 8. which is wrong for obvious reasons. We need bidwar to ignore odd bids when it comes to using the bidstep.
example:
player 1 = 36 dkp
player 2 = 23.5 dkp
player 1 bids 8
player 2 bids 16
player 1 bids 23.5
normally player 2 would need to bid 24 to win but instead bidwar turns the next bid into: 31.5

using EQDKP+
@zazoo - 1) not yet for both 2) no you just click the broker icon to enable it...not sure what you mean? 3) if items not picked up it is a range issue trying to decide how best to deal with it 4) is your name on the item that was awarded? ie why does it think you won it?
@sorothe - yeah hit the % toggle if you want them to be in %
@all - busy trying to figure out the problem with the webscript at the moment. Get to rest as soon as I can.
I believe if you check the % box above the sliders you will get your desired effect. Atleast that is what we are doing for take = 50% and offspec = 25% and it seems to be working.
@Morgalm -> I just re-read back through the comments and noticed you had asked for some files regarding the player with crazy characters in his name. I'll get the files tonight and email them.
I also had issues with Maexxna and Faerlina loot not being recorded last night. I had a feeling it was because while I'm standing there doing the looting the raid has moved on to the next boss. Loot seems to be distributed at whatever range but not recorded. I need to loot faster. Through my own brain fade in the heat, I was using the Blizz loot frame to hand out loot -> may also not have helped.
The "take/offspec" options are perfect for our guild. We dont charge dkp for an offspec item. Would it be possible to add a %-slider somewhere to set the percentage amount of dkp charged for a Take or Offspec item? I'm currently just editing in the RaidTracker but my poor brain hurts.
Thanks,
S.
Is there an option to report the winner of a silent bid to raid chat, rather than to the self window? I was hoping to have the information on who won the item and for how much be reported so everyone could see it.
How do you clear the alias list, server-side? Somehow someone got listed as an alias for themselves, so their DKP isn't exporting from the web anymore. I tried deleting them from my aliases list, and exported a raid to the web (So <Aliases></Aliases> was in the export), and that didn't do it.
It's to the point where I'm manually editing the DKPInfo.lua before every raid so his DKP is correct.
How do I fix this?
Edit: For some reason deleting and exporting didn't do it the first time, I added again and deleted again and it worked fine.
Had a few quick questions: (I've been using MorgDKP for about a year now, btw.. great system!)
1) Is there any way to hide the tablet that the guild members see when picking Need/Take showing what other members have selected, their DKP, etc (It helps remove some collusion possibilities).
1a) Any way to disable the offspec option using %/Fixed Take loot mode?
2) It seems if I want to enable the addon without autozone, I need to enable autozone, turn on the addon, then disable autozone. Is this by design?
3) Maexxna loot was not picked up this week by the addon (using the latest version)
4) If I am the ML/DE, and I remove an entry from the raid tracker, it appears to ADD the DKP from the item (which was never deducted in the first place) to my DKP total... which is great when I want to loot.. not so good from an equity perspective :)
Thanks again for all the hard work!
The email didnt send. It should be in your inbox at awags@telus.net now however.
i've send you my server data, i hope you can fix the import issues now
