AASpend is not something we have. However, I created a macro that does essentially the same thing. I designed it as an include, so you can add it to any macros you run. You will see it when you get in to VIP.

If you wanted some other idead on HUD set ups, you ought to try the custom UI section. Theres a lot of different ideas there, and with some set ups.

I'm obviously missing something here. I'm curious why in my HUD I can get this to work:

Code: Select all

Pet Buff 1=3,1738,310,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Burnout]},Burnout: UP,]}
Pet Buff 1b=3,1738,310,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Burnout]},Burnout: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 2=3,1738,322,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Iceflame Armaments]},Iceflame Armaments: UP,]}
Pet Buff 2b=3,1738,322,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Iceflame Armaments]},Iceflame Armaments: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 3=3,1738,334,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Circle of Flameweaving]},My DS: UP,]}
Pet Buff 3b=3,1738,334,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Circle of Flameweaving]},My DS: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 4=3,1738,346,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Velocity]},Velocity: UP,]}
Pet Buff 4b=3,1738,346,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Velocity]},Velocity: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 5=3,1738,358,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Primal Fusion]},Primal Fusion: UP,]}
Pet Buff 5b=3,1738,358,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Primal Fusion]},Primal Fusion: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 6=3,1738,382,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Surge of Shadow]},BIG DS: UP,]}
Pet Buff 6b=3,1738,382,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Surge of Shadow]},BIG DS: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 7=3,1815,346,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Spirit of Tala]},Spirit of Tala'Tak: UP,]}
Pet Buff 7b=3,1815,346,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Spirit of Tala]},Spirit of Tala'Tak: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 8=3,1738,370,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Cloak of Nettlespears]},Ranger DS: UP,]}
Pet Buff 8b=3,1738,370,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Cloak of Nettlespears]},Ranger DS: DOWN,]}
But if I try this it doesn't work.

Code: Select all

Self Buff 9=3,1738,382,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Surge of Shadow]},BIG DS: UP,]}
Self Buff 9b=3,1738,382,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Surge of Shadow]},BIG DS: DOWN,]}
The closest I can get to an up/down is to not use the IF and use .Duration.Time and go off the time vs NULL values instead.

well... does " ${Me.Buff[Surge of Shadow]} " work by itself for you?

I would think you would need ${Me.Buff[Surge of Shadow].ID} off hand, to get a numeric value (which translates into a true/false based on if its it 0/null or any number) as I understand it.

First of all I wanted to share my mage pet buff cheat sheet for your hud:

Code: Select all

Pet Buff 1=3,1738,310,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Burnout]},Burnout: UP,]}
Pet Buff 1b=3,1738,310,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Burnout]},Burnout: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 2=3,1738,322,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Iceflame Armaments]},Iceflame Armaments: UP,]}
Pet Buff 2b=3,1738,322,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Iceflame Armaments]},Iceflame Armaments: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 3=3,1738,334,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Circle of Flameweaving]},My DS: UP,]}
Pet Buff 3b=3,1738,334,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Circle of Flameweaving]},My DS: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 4=3,1738,346,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Velocity]},Velocity: UP,]}
Pet Buff 4b=3,1738,346,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Velocity]} && !${Pet.Buff[Spirit of Tala]},Cast Velocity,]}
Pet Buff 5=3,1738,358,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Primal Fusion]},Primal Fusion: UP,]}
Pet Buff 5b=3,1738,358,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Primal Fusion]},Primal Fusion: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 6=3,1950,310,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Surge of Shadow]},BIG DS: UP,]}
Pet Buff 6b=3,1932,310,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Surge of Shadow]},BIG DS: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 7=3,1738,346,255,165,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Spirit of Tala]},Spirit of Tala'Tak: UP,]}
Pet Buff 8=3,1738,370,255,165,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Cloak of Nettlespears]},Ranger DS: UP,]}
Pet Buff 8b=3,1738,370,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Cloak of Nettlespears]},Ranger DS: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 9a=3,1860,310,255,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Group Perfected Levitation]},Lev: UP,]}
Pet Buff 9b=3,1850,310,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Group Perfected Levitation]},Lev: DOWN,]}
Pet Buff 10a=3,1770,72,0,255,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Second Wind Ward IV]},PET DA: UP,]}
Pet Buff 10b=3,1770,72,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Second Wind Ward IV]},PET DA: FIRED,]}
Pet Buff 11=3,1650,297,0,0,255,${If[${Pet.Buff[Theft of Essence]},Theft of Essence,]}
Pet Buff 12=3,1738,382,255,165,0,${If[${Pet.Buff[Symphony of Battle]},Bard Symphony: UP,]}
Pet Buff 12b=3,1738,382,255,0,0,${If[!${Pet.Buff[Symphony of Battle]},Bard Symphony: DOWN,]}
Second I wanted to ask, does anyone know how I can get ${Pet.MaxHPs} or some variation to work as ${Me.MaxHPs} does? I want to have some idea if my pet has a full set of armor and buffs and I think seeing that number would allow me to judge him better at a glance.

Here is the self buff section I use on mage while I have it on my screen:

Code: Select all

Self Buff 1=3,50,480,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Praetorian Guardian].ID},Praetorian Guardian: ${Me.Buff[Praetorian Guardian].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 1b=3,50,480,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Praetorian Guardian].ID},Praetorian Guardian: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 2=3,50,492,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Shield of the Pellarus].ID},Shield of the Pellarus: ${Me.Buff[Shield of the Pellarus].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 2b=3,50,492,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Shield of the Pellarus].ID},Shield of Pellarus: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 3=3,50,504,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Shield of Consequence].ID},Shield of Consequence: ${Me.Buff[Shield of Consequence].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 3b=3,50,504,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Shield of Consequence].ID},Shield of Consequence: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 4=3,50,516,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Familiar: Hooded].ID},Familiar: ${Me.Buff[Familiar: Hooded].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 4b=3,50,516,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Familiar: Hooded].ID},Familiar: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 5=3,50,528,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Distilled Mana Tonic].ID},Mana Pot: ${Me.Buff[Distilled Mana Tonic].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 5b=3,50,528,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Distilled Mana Tonic].ID},Mana Pot: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 6=3,50,540,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Circle of Flameweaving].ID},Self DS: ${Me.Buff[Circle of Flameweaving].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 6b=3,50,540,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Circle of Flameweaving].ID},Self DS: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 7=3,50,552,255,165,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Cloak of Nettlespears].ID},Ranger DS: ${Me.Buff[Cloak of Nettlespears].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 7b=3,50,552,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Cloak of Nettlespears].ID},Ranger DS: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 8=3,50,564,0,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Elemental Form: Earth].ID},Earth Form: ${Me.Buff[Elemental Form].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 8b=3,50,564,255,165,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Elemental Form: Fire].ID},Fire Form: ${Me.Buff[Elemental Form].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 8c=3,50,564,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Elemental Form: Earth].ID} && !${Me.Buff[Elemental Form: Fire].ID},***Pick a Form!!!***,]}

Self Buff 9=3,50,576,255,255,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Surge of Shadow].ID},Big DS: ${Me.Buff[Surge of Shadow].Duration.Time},]}
Self Buff 9b=3,50,576,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Surge of Shadow].ID},Big DS: DOWN,]}

Self Buff 10=3,728,948,51,255,51,${If[${Me.Buff[Geomantra].ID},UP,]}
Self Buff 10b=3,728,948,255,0,0,${If[!${Me.Buff[Geomantra].ID},DOWN,]}
Self Buff 11=3,1000,312,255,0,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Twincast].ID},|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|,]}
Self Buff 11b=3,370,870,255,0,0,${If[${Me.Buff[Twincast].ID},|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|----TWINCAST----|,]}

I do not think that is information sent to the client, and thus not information MQ can display.

Course I am just saying based on what I know, I may be wrong in that regard.

Be aware that if you are playing on the live servers, there was a change some time back so that mage pets summoned with a focus item come with a full set of armor/focus/mask... just missing weapons. This has been true for a while. A more recent change to pets made it so if they pet could/would not use an item, it would hand it back. This caused quite a stir at the time (WTH, I always had to give him armor before!) but it helped highlight that mage pets already spawn equipped. along with the "power cloak" based on what your pet focus item gives. (this is partially why your summoned pets will spawn lacking some HPs/damaged)

Oh well, maybe I can figure out another work around, like finding a way to report what my pet has in his chest slot maybe? I'll dig into the literature again.

Regarding the pet gear, some pet classes (including mages) are now giving our pets 2.5k hps (dimensional warrior, arx mentis stud, combine soldier ring, TS axe for range etc) gear (all but back slot since the Enhanced Minion effect is rendered via a clock with KILLER stats apparently). There is a noticeable difference. I for instance tank namers in current content (EM23) with water pets molo (including adds with RS pets). I keep the mage spell that procs at 20% hps on pet and it never goes off anymore... I'm rarely seeing my pet below 50% on namers (even after ae's it's not hitting the 20% point).
