MacroQuest64

No big loss fearless, most of my friends moved on from EQ a long time ago. I only regret that I didn't get to add all the final features to RD to truly make it 'complete'

Major pain trying to drag the druid across WoS after a res, had to kill the macro so she would follow without breaking the invis and summoning her slow ass horse. Suppose I could have toggled usemount now, but didnt think about it then.

Hmm, there should be no reason it summons mount while invis. I even have Spell_Routines set to not cast when invis, odd. I'd test it, but I'm loathe to log onto EQ atm. You should take over RD and fix it for me!

What are the "SelfBuffCount1=18" lines for on self buffs?

That's the number of buffs you want it to stop casting that self buff at. For example, on raids I regularly passed the 20 buff limit if I was keeping up all my self buffs. So I set things like thorns, brackencoat, etc to not recast before buffs like Quarm Shawl, Oak, Mask of the Forest, etc.

So if you have thorns set to say.. 16, it won't recast thorns when they wear off unless you have less than 16 buffs. Once you get down to 15 buffs total, it will recast thorns. I did this before Cr4zy added the Me.FreeBuffSlots object, or I'd have set it to be the number of buff slots you want open.

Tank just died, and got a good log... mauled, mauled, RD begin casting nuke, cleric heals you, mauled, nuke was interupted, mauled, RD begins casting nuke, I manually duck to interupt.

Odd, it's supposed to be checking the sit timer after each nuke. It should have finished casting the nuke and then been stopped nuking for 10 seconds.

Does uncommenting group or guild make you auto-buff based on /g and /gu?

Yes

No

You're also probably going to want a custom bind to toggle between your nukes based on the situation, here's the one I use:
Code:
/custombind add NukeToggle
/custombind set /varset WhichNuke ${If[${WhichNuke}==1,2,1]}
/bind WhichNuke ctrl space

First.. thanks again for a great macro! its pretty much working for me exept for the hole change to fire/cold spells..

I must admit im not really sure what you meen with the above "quote"

is whichnuke suposed to be the name of my spellset? cold / fire or "spellname".. im all in the dark here:)

WhichNuke is a variable that exists inside RaidDruid. You type those exact lines into your chat window in EQ to set the custombind. Once you do that, you can hit Ctrl+Space to toggle which nuke you cast when raid druid is running.

Oh, and I'm still quitting, I just wanted to tie up what loose ends I could.

Thanks, your work has been truely appreciated. I'll see what I can do about trying to keep the code maintained, although I doubt I'd be able to do nearly as good of a job as you have.

I am still wading my way through all this, and so I hope this question is not TOO ignorant....

I have been unable to get Raiddruid.mac to do anything.

It loads, and then does nothing except every minute or so reports the druids X and Y locs and heading.

I have edited the ini files to my spells, items, ma, casting %'s etc.

The 2 things I suspect MIGHT be a factor are:

* I run my main tank and my druid on the same computer, using EQW multi client windowing software. Is there any reason that EQW would interfere with MQ2 or Raiddruid.mac from running properly.

I suppose that asks an even bigger question, is there a reason that multiple clients on the same computer, each running MQ2 will have a problem?

* the 2nd issue. I did NOT want the HUD you designed, so I did not add the code to the MQ2HUD.ini. Would that be causing the macro to pause or not run properly?

Thanks

no..

did you try the /rdpause?

did you try the /rdpause?

That's the most likely problem.

If you were running the RD hud, it would show up with *Raid Druid Paused* in big yellow text whenver it's paused.

No, I never ran the paused feature, should I? it seemed to me from the discussion and code that that would stop it from fiunctioning?

I am assuming you offer that as a solution, that I might have set it to rdpause, but, no I did not

/rdpause toggles the pause function on and off... I don't remember what the default state is, but it might be off. Try toggeling it and see what it says, it will report what state it is changing to. "Raid druid is now paused" or something.

LOL! I feel soooo stupid!

I had edited the ini file, set rdpause to 0, I had misread the docs and thought that disabled the rdpause, while, in fact, it put the macro INTO pause mode at startup.

thanks for the idea of what to look for, it fixed it....

BTW, this also makes a more than adequete Enchanter BOT.

with the buff and debuff routines, just set your spells accordingly, turn off the healing, and blammo, pretty good Enchanter bot.

This is porovided you can do single pulls, I have not yet tested ability to detect and mez adds.
