BUMP, this needs to be modded for new style.

Everything is already out there for people to use. You just have to search for it.

FYI: I converted my form of this macro in about 30 minutes. The new language is a lot easier for me to understand.

Working on it

Post by Mutter » Wed May 05, 2004 3:34 pm

Mostly having trouble with the new data stuctures, as I cannot seem to find a command reference. LOL I am sure there is one, as nobody else has my issues.

:)

Also, cant run MQ at ALL now, because it crashes my EQ. :-(

No changes..just using code

Code: Select all

|  Fixed necrofarm.mac - v0.4.1  11/06/03 
|   - removed most "nopredict" from distance calcs in /face 
|   - added "/face loc $target(y), $target(x)" in MoveToTarget Sub 
|   - only oddity I can see is that character looks up just before attacking mob 
|   - All credit goes to Scrime for this awesome script - Stogar 
| 
|  converted necrofarm.mac - v0.4.0b 10/21/2003 by Scrime 
|  Basic pet hunter script converted to new var format 
|     w/ some ideas borrowed from GrimJack's hunter script. 
| 
|  Usage: 
|   ! Have a pet up. 
|   ! Put the correct spells in the spell names. 
|   ! Use /call AddToMobList to add the mobs that you want to hunt. 
|   ! Use /call AddToLootList to add the items that you want to loot 
|   ! Use /call AddToDontLootList to add the items that you want to destroy 
|       because they accidently get looted due to the wildcard nature of the loot list. 
| 
|  Features: 
|   + Anti-KS code.  Selects targets with no other PCs within a variable radius. 
|      Also checks to make sure the target is undamaged and is not already attacking 
|     someone else before engaging. 
|   + Selective auto-looting.  Only keeps the items that you want it to.  Also has a 
|     destroy list, in the case that you are looting all "lightstones", but still want 
|     to destroy "Burned Out Lightstones" (for example) 
|   + Closest mob selection.  Looks through the whole list of mobs you want to hunt 
|     goes after the closest one. 
|   + Debugging code.  Set DEBUG to "1==1" to show debugging code, set to "0==1" to turn 
|     it off. 
|   + Buff tracking.  Keeps track of buffs up on you and your pet, refreshes as nescessary. 
|   + Heals your pet once it drops below 90% health. 
|   + Obstruction avoidance.  Should back up and try to go around something if it gets stuck. 
| 
|  Known Issues/Limitations/Bugs: 
|   - Does not know when to stop hunting.  $freeinv works for some people, crashes the client for 
|     other people.  Until it is fixed, the script will not know when you bags are full. 
|   - Does not stop to med up, stops casting spells once below 20% mana. 
|   - Obstruction detection needs some tweaking, maybe an "allowance" value for being in the same spot 
|     instead of waiting for the x/y locs to be the same. 
|   - Some of the global variables need to be turned in to locals. 
|      
|  Release Notes for v0.4.0b : 
|   * NOTE: This is considered a beta release of the converted previous v0.3.0b, it still needs some more testing.  
|     Use at you own risk, please report any problems.  Enjoy and macro responsibly. 
|   * Hunt distance is now a constant (cHuntDistance) that you can set at the beginning of the script.  This 
|     is the maxiumum distance away from you that the script will look for a new target.  Set to 99999 for no 
|     max distance. 
|   * In the anti-ks code, when looking at our targets assisted target, it will look at the name and if 
|     the name contains the word "corpse" it will disregard the assist and attack anyway. 
|   * In the anti-ks code, if a mob it tries to target becomes invalid because it is not full health or is 
|     currently attacking someone it will not be considered the next time thru the loop. 
|   * Aggro'd mob protection.  If we have a mob aggro'd on us, then the script will select that mob as our next 
|     target to kill AFTER we are done with out current target before doing a normal search for a hunt target. 
|   * Continuous target re-evaluation.  As long as we are moving towards our target, the script will keeping 
|     looking for closer targets.  This makes it so that we wont run past newly spawned valid targets on our way 
|     to our current target (which is farther away). 
|   * Script now backs away from a target if it gets too close to us (too close range defined as cTooCloseRange) 
| 

#turbo 

| used to echo debugging messages.  set to 1=1 if you want to see them, 0==1 if you dont 
#define DEBUG               0==1 

| distance defines, setting these alters the behavior of the script 
| cAntiKSRadius is the distance from each mob that will exclude it from selecting as a 
| target if there is another PC within this range. 
#define cAntiKSRadius         50 
| cAtkRange is how close we get to the mob before we send in the pet 
#define cAtkRange            100 
| cTooCloseRange is how close we let a mob we are attacking get to us before we start to 
| back away 
#define cTooCloseRange         95 
| cHuntDistance is the maximum distance away that the script will select a new target. 
#define cHuntDistance        5000 

| spell names 
#define SelfShieldSpell      "Manaskin" 
#define PetBuffSpell      "Augmentation of Death" 
#define PetHealSpell      "Renew Bones" 

| special events to respond to 
#event PetHasteDown   "Your pet's Augment Death spell has worn off." 
#event Fizzle      "Your spell fizzles!"

You are not reading the fucking manual. That's what RTFM stands for by the way.

wow somewhere hidden in my text must be "yo momma" or pics of me cutting off an american's head w/ a dull knife cuz people sure do get upset about people who don't read manuals. i am lame i have no skills at this.. if anyone can help me find a necro mac plz.. or feel free to get potty and tell me to fuck off.. i didn't mean to offend you oh gods of l33tness. how stupid of me for not knowing the difference between new and old macros.. or what commands work and what commands are "dead". input would be lovely.. i will read the manual but i guarantee i will still have no clue why it didn't work. hence why i asked here.. the fact that i got spelltrain working got me cocky thinking i could figure it out.. help plz i am a highschool drop out.. so type in a big font and use small words.. pics would be lovely as well.. /sex

Well, generally the problem isn't ego or l33tness as you put it. I think some of the developers are just tired and worn out over answering questions (and wasting time reading them) particularly the ones they've heard too many times. They probably spent more time saying "Read the Manual" than the people complaining about having a problem actually spent trying to solve the problem themselves.

That being said, as an analogy, it's much like someone without legs making an argument about wanting a quality pair of running shoes and not understanding how to lace them up. Other people would be amazed that someone without feet would try to use running shoes and have the audacity to ask questions about their proper use.

Anyway, some Necro will probably rewrite this eventually; and if that doesn't happen soon enough, try to learn how to use MQ2 to fix it yourself. And if that's too hard, then go without.

At least you are funny......

Ok lets go over this, slowly mind you....

I assume you searched for "necro" and ignored the fact that there are no new posts in this catergory for quite some time... mq2data is the new way, mq2params is dead. That is all, go to the right forums, request it in the macro requests, post this macro in conversion help, dont ask for shit here though.
didn't mean to offend you oh gods of l33tness.
You are forgiven, fuck off.
