It is normal for people to use "snippet" macros or INCLUDE macros with the macros they write. That way they dont have to write the whole thing or make it extremly long.

In the healwatch.mac is "probably" a line

Code: Select all

#include spellwatch.inc
You will need to find the spellwatch.inc and any other included macros from snippets or macro depot and put them in the ./macro directory defined by your everquest.ini
