Hello,
I have used MQ for a while and I know it is possible to add an alert when a npc is up. I did however wonder one thing, is it possible to make my computer beep (make a loop so it beeps until I wake up and turn it off).
For example,
Our mages in the guild need Magi P'Tasa--how would I go about making an alert where I can camp a char at the SS and alert me when the mob has spawned?

Code: Select all
| Mobalert.mac
Sub Main
/alert add 1 npc $p0
:LOOP
/if $alert(1)=="TRUE" {
/target alert 1
/face fast
/beep
/beep
/beep
/beep
/beep
/beep
/echo %T just spawned.
/alert clear 1
/goto :EXIT
}
/delay 20
/goto :LOOP
:EXIT
/return
Just alias /mob /macro mobalert and use /mob *insert name of mobs to watch for*

What's the point of doing /face fast?
That's just a way of drawing unwanted attention, to save what? 2 seconds?
Why do you think other offsets aren't posted here? Because dimwits will abuse them. I'm not calling you a dimwit. Is there more to using /face fast then saving a second or two? [edited]

i think the /face is there just to show which way the mob is.
just remove it, i would .. one thing i noticed before was /face will turn you EVEN IF YOUR SITTING!
imagine if your at a raid (the mob listed above was in hate.. usually thats a raid type zone) and you see a char in front of you turn around while sitting, its not possible. i would be like, WTF?! did you just see that?
plus if its a named youll most likely know where it is. if it were me, id remove it and if your REALLY paranoid, remove the /target part. how would you target a named mob from across the zone? unless your a class that can bind sight it might be a bit suspicious (ie: how does a warrior target a mob on the other side of the zone by himself?).
with MQ being more and more known.. they might have a clue and figure you out, never know what might happen then =/
but it will do what the guy wanted and what more can you ask? :p its a good working macro for what the guy wants. cant hate on that.

add a /delay 10 before each beep.. could be that your sound card is in use also.. not sure

Coul also be your internal speak is not connected to your mobo. The beep commands beeos the internal speaker only.
