Pet Summoning with Focus

Post by Scythe » Thu Aug 04, 2005 7:41 pm

Well, I have Qvic boots as a pet focus, but I only use them now to make a pet. What I am looking for (and so far have been unable to find) is a macro that will:

Swap in Qvic boots.
Cast pet.
Swap out Qvic boots.

Should be simple, eh?

Get VIP and use the MQ2Exchange plugin. Or even make a macro that uses the exchange plugin.

Code: Select all

Sub FeetSwap
   /declare FeetItem string local ${Me.Inventory[feet]}
   /delay 25s !${Me.Casting.ID}
   /exchange "[color=orange]NameOfBootsHere[/color]" feet
   /delay 6
   /call cast "[color=orange]NameOfPetSpellHere[/color]"
   /delay 25s !${Me.Casting.ID}
   /delay 6
   /exchange "${FeetItem}" feet
/return
Replace appropriate names with orange text. I used /call cast, but I guess you can just use /cast if you don't use spellcast. I prefer to use subs like these as event incase I make them hotkeys, and don't call it again in the middle of the sub.

Of course, you still need MQ2Exchange from VIP.

Is it just me or does anyone else find it odd that he specifically mentioned the boots he was using?

I mean, just as an example, the question could have just as easily been phrased as "looking for a program that can swap items out, cast a spell, then put them back."

Hay guys, I'm looking for a macro to move my Holgresh Elder Beads from slot one to slot two. Thanks! P.S. Is there a way to make them swap with my Manastone and Epic 2.0?

What does it matter if he specified which item compared to in general?

It is always best to be as detailed and descriptive as possible when requesting help. Let's not encourage bad habits.

This BST macro which isn't VIP can do this.

If you're not a beastlord then might be able to gleem some code from it.
