I'm pretty sure you get 1 point into SH when you start the game...but I don't remember.

Make sure you have at least 1 point into it before you try to practice it. :)

No, you start at 0, but since it's an ability you get at level 1, you can actually get that first point by practicing it. takes a LONG time to get the first point, but you can get it.

Yeah i had the same problem for a while then me and L124rd sat there for like 3 hours bouncing ideas and we came up with this

the NT (new technology) in using /doability hasent been working for me Or some as this seems to be so we came up that i gotta use this command to do abilitys in a macro

Code: Select all

sub main
:loop
/if n $char(ability,"Sense Heading")>0 /doability $char(ability,"Sense Heading")
/doevents
/goto :loop
/return           Credit to L124RD

i have to use that soo it might be the same problem for you

Give it a shot and tell me what happens

your lucky your macros still work mine wont open for some odd reason so i gotta manually program them into the hotkeys using /doability 2 /pause 87 /doability 2 /pause 87 /press 9..... over and over

/em hits himself in the face with a Brick! la la la

Hehe, which oddly enuf....if you look at the code...just checks to see that your ability in that skill exists...ie it it greater than O....lol, which is effectively what I wanted that fella to make sure he had done, have ability greater than 0. Of course, this doesn't answer why the macros have to be like that, but...whatever. :)

As for your macros not opening...let's see..
-offsets? (corrected offsets?)
-corrected offsets placed in eqgame.ini and not macroquest.ini?
-macros in .mac format, not .mac.txt?
-try a fresh install in a different directory?
-removed trailing spaces from macros?
-uninstall perl? install perl?
-not doing something simple like typing "marco cheese" instead of "macro cheese" or "macro cheeese"?
-mq.ini.dist changed to mq.ini following reinstall?
-born under a bad sign?
-like animals in *that* way?

Those are all my superbasic recommendations for you and anyone else who can't make MQ work. What a pip I am.

Salutations,
]\[E() are you saying that what he gave you worked? the problem (seemed) to be that /doability "Sense Heading" can't figure out which number sense heading is in, but $char(ability,"Sense Heading") can... go figure... which is why the macro is programmed the way so that it is /doability $char(ability,"Sense Heading") works... *shrugs*

my problem is that sense heading is the only skill my druid can't use in the /doability format i will try the macro you posted in this thread and see if it will work that way but was wondering mainly if anyone else was having this prob. i have even tried /doability 1 and would not work.sense heading is way over 1 skill level

has anyone else noticed that buff slots have been added into the readme? i have not seen anyone using them yet so didn't notice until i looked to see if i was doing something wrong with this
