i was getting the exact same error. i checked advpath.inc and advpath2.inc and did global replacements based on the above posts for > and < . worked like a champ. thanks so much for the help

thanks much. ill give it a shot

when i open the workspace in VC6 it loads BUT there is 0 projects in it. Im no VC6 wiz so guess ill wait and see if someone can help =)

np LordG. I just wanted to see if it was something I was perhaps doing wrong. Thanks for the quick reply.

Not sure if this has anything to do with the latest MQ release (April 29) as I havent ran genbot in a while, but I tried running genbot 12.10 with the April 29 release and after typing /macro genbot <master name here> it is erroring out with: Ending macro. Calculate encountered a bad = formation bot...

PS just noticed your macro does end after npc dead. This is EXACTLY what i was looking for. Thank you SOOOO much! =)

Thanks for the feedback ml2517. I am using that macro currently. The big thing I am trying to get is a macro that starts, checks and ensures target is an npc, autofires, and ends macro at death of target OR esc out and losing target. Main reason being that I can assist a MA and verify the target bef...

Another note for Lax....If i target myself and run the code you posted (or my code for that matter) autofire does indeed turn on, which it should BUT should go to } else { and terminate the macro since no npc was targetted. this is not occurring so it seems the code is not getting out of the loop.

Lax thank you for the post. I tried your code as well, and it too will attack ranged on an npc and /echo autofire on...However, once the target is dead and/or I press escape to clear target (effectively target type non npc) the macro does not end. That is basically where I was stuck with my code as ...

OK, this seems as far as I can get at the moment. The macro starts fine, checks and ensures target is an npc etc, BUT it seems to continue doing the loop i added even once the target is dead. if i target another npc it starts shooting again til dead versus if there is no npc targetted, simply ending...

i actually broke this down to its most basic and think i am VERY close =) anyways, it now ends the macro if there is no target (basically, no npc targetted). if i target an npc and run macro its shooting an arrow at the npc but then the macro is ending. Im sure its just an issue of setting up a :loo...

ok well im toying with the syntax of the new coding and think i am getting closer. here is what I have currently. #turbo Sub Main /echo Autofire ON :Loop /if (${Target.ID} && ${Target.Type.Equal[NPC]})= /keypress Num_0 /delay 1 /goto :Loop else { /if (${Target.Type.NotEqual[NPC]}) { /end /ec...

The topics linked do indeed seem helpful in my quest to troubleshooting and rewriting this code. Thanks much

Thanks for the helpful tips Preoct. If I hadnt added the [code] brackets i think we would have all been lost. /bow

I would prefer to simply get this macro working. it would check if target was an npc, archery til target was dead OR esc to clear target, and would then end the macro. with an assist key, pause, then /macro arch it was super smooth and simple. I am not looking for a macro that runs full time, just t...
