I'm getting even more errors... Can someone just copy and paste there working fletching.mac code, buy.inc, sell.inc, and any other file that would interfere with this?? Or attach them at an email to renaissanceoftranquility@yahoo.com . Also I will be on AIM all day.

I'm feeling pretty lazy myself, anyone taken the time to fix this to re-automate it and wouldn't mind posting it?

I've been applying everything in this post, and have gotten it to semi work with the new merchant windows, however it doesn't purchase what I need ;( Hopefully someone can help all of us get this to work again...

Damn this ****ing new merchant window!

An observation for what it's worth!

SOE in their wisdom have added coding around the new merchant window which makes it slower opening than the old one. It sorts items and the graphics look like they may be a little more processor intensive in rendering. The result is that there is a noticeable delay in the window being populated with the items available. Worse still is that the delay increases with the number of items on offer.

What this means for us is that one macro which uses a vendor having few items or where the item needed is near the begining of the list works, whereas another which uses a vendor with a long list or where the item needed is towards the end of the list is broken. Why? Simply because when the macro attempts to buy, it does so before the item needed is available in the list for selection.

Solution - either

1. increase the delaymultiplier at the start of your macro - this would probably work but slows the whole of the macro down

or

2. insert a delay at the start of buy.inc so that it waits for the merchant window to be fully open.

What value to give the delay is tricky but I have used /delay 5 which gets the baking macro to work when buying cheese. I guess it's a question of trial and error.

Hope this helps a little!

Instead of adding a long delay, perhaps you could add a loop with a short delay to keep checking for the item in the list. Say check once per second 5 times before giving up. If I have time later I'll fiddle with this.

What exactly is wrong with this macro? Could you give me a summary? By glancing at the files included in his macro package, I'm guessing your problem is in buy.inc because of the new merchant window.

I managed to fix the Hero's Brew Macro. I have no real interest in using these TS macros myself but would find it interesting to fix.

The buy.inc currently does not work with the new merchant window.

How to implement it?

copy into txt file, SAVE AS, buy.mac, put buy.mac into macro folder.

I'll leave the flames to the pros.
