I just wanted to acknowledge this in case someone else was chasing down the Casting-Causing-Crash problem. I had the MQ2-20040914 version of the download and was experiencing this very problem. Re-downloaded and got the MQ2-20040915 version and everything shapped right back up. Thanks to those posti...

Very useful snippet, once I saw this I ran it on all my spell casters. Who knew what I was missing? Thanks for making and posting.

I have a newb friend, or relatively newb-ish, that told me he bought these "guides". While I haven't seen them I did get a fairly detailed description over the phone. There is nothing, and I mean nothing in these things that isn't readily available from multiple web sites. No "tricks&...

I used this for the first time last night. Spent about an hour modifying it to my needs, etc. This was the way coolest ("way coolest"? who talks like that anymore?) macro I've used to date. Great idea, good implementation. I haven't had this much fun goofing off in a while. One of the best...

I wish I could tell you I understood, but I don't. In the General forum Phantal posted a link to download a version of Active Pearl (post link below). Since I last posted here, I downloaded from that link, installed the software and now MQ is working again. I haven't had time to test it thoroughly, ...

Nope, that pretty much answers my question. Thanks all for taking the time to respond.

I'm pretty much in the exact same boat and have tried the the same things under Windows ME. I've been fine until the latest version and now nothing seems to work. Nothing grenades ore gives any messages. It's loaded on the system tray I'm using the old UI and /macro does nothing. I've tried both wit...

Hah!

/doevents -- does events. Yeah, I'm a progammer. All that schoolin' is reeeeaaallly going to waste.

Thanks for your response. My most basic question of how/when the event is evaluated / compared is answered in your statement: "In essence the variable comparison happens when the event happens." I understand your metaphore about handles, memory locations, etc. It was very helpful, thank yo...

Special events, like the simple one below waiting for a merchant to response to you, do they just.....um, sorta happen? In all the code and macros I've looked at, these are never called, but variables are set when an event matching their definition happens. Obviously they work, even I can get them t...

Ahh so the variable in line 2 -- v99 -- isn't predefined, it's defined as it's used in the /for loop. I was a little hung up on the idea that the variable had to be defined somewhere with a /varset prior to use; I guess some really old programming biases hampering me again. So /varset v10 99 sets th...

I've gone through the system documentation and managed to confuse myself and I'm hoping someone might have the inclination to help me out. Here is a simple part of the combine.mac that I've been successful in implementing, at least enough to know that it works fine, however in picking it apart to un...
