Some questions regarding Gatherbuddy2

[DalordUrgod]

I am a noob to HB so please bear with me
I am having problems with force mail and protected items.
It seems that the xml s are not being read (will only work if I add them directly in the profiles)
Both profiles are in the programs main directory.
Next: Skinning while using gather buddy 2
I read somewhere that it is not intended for this but if you are harvesting and end up in combat it will loot the mob so why not skin it as well? Is there a way around it?
Last question is on plug-in writing: I noticed that the Wiki?s has not been implemented so can anyone suggest a tutorial?
Thanks

also forgot to add it wont sell grays
I have a "Type="Sell" vendor set up but it never salls them so they tend to build up

Gb2 does not support skin

and about the protected list
are you talking about Gb2?

If you're using GB2, you're farming right? If you're farming, why are you picking up greys?.... . .

Tony:
Yes I?m taking about GB2. I created a script to mine. I used the example provided on the Wiki.
According to the instructions I should have all my Protected items in ?Protected Items.xml ? and the items I want to Mail in ?ForceMail.xml? they should be in the programs directory (same place as ?Honorbuddy.exe?) but it seems to ignore it. I have had to add
<Force Mail>
<Item Name="Bag of tasty nuts" Entry="123456" />
</ForceMail>
To my script (and the same for protected items).
Cawpet:
Yes I am using GB2 and yes I am farming but I do get attacked and do loot the mobs and usually it is gray crap that should sell if I have <SellGrey>True</SellGrey> and a vendor properly set up .
As for skinning:
I do ?Gather? Hides
If I drop donw on mines where I get attacked by skinnable beasts it only makes sense to me that if I can kill and loot them I should be able to skin them.
Don?t get me wrong I love HB and all it does and I have read before that GB2 does not skin I am curious as to why since the logic is there and used with Grinding and Archeology so why not Gathering?

Gb2 is not made to auto loot corpses
do you have an addon or something that can cause this?

Now that sis not true, is it? I have an option in the GB2 settings interface to have it loot corpses, so looting might be intended

yes thats true
but i guess if someone wants to keep his bags clear this option should be disabled

what i meant before is that this option is not auto
my bad

Yes GB2 has a loot option (Bot settings/manage) and there is even enough room to add one more box there right under ?Repair from guild?s Bank? for ?Skin Mobs?
Like I said I like it the app so please don?t take this as a complaint but the code is in there for skinning
If you are grinding and since Archeology uses the grind bot settings it will skin mobs too.
I would assume that most botters use the looting since you never know when a mob will drop a good item that will be worth more than the mining and they end up with a lot of gray crap that the bot will sell (mine does not BTW) and hides are worth a lot of gold so why pass it up? (I would like the option at least) I am new to GB but I do have some knowledge coddling so I may just try my hand at a skinning plug-in but I?m just surprised one does not exist. Actually Loot master does skin but since it inherits the setting from the bot and GB2 does not have it I?m back to square one  anyway, you guys have done an amazing job on this thing so keep up the good work
