Not necessarily. The macro files are read only once per session and whether we do that in 1/50th of second or 1/1000 doesn't realy matter. For the mere reading of them I even say the hassle of using a memory mapped file for this just isn't worth it. The test is just a side product of me studying...

The explanations by brainiac are completely to the point. I had to do some processing or the optimizer might skip the reading altogether. And yes in debug mode the c++ versions with iterators slow down a lot as if every byte gets scrutinized by the standards commitee. They become the slowest by...

I was a bit bored and compared various ways to read a file in c++ under Windows. The test was to read kissassist.mac (552k) 100 times, count the number of bytes, spaces and lines and take the time. Source #include <cstdio> #include <algorithm> #include <iostream> #include <fstream> #include...

For whoever writes 400 character long code lines like /if (${Select[${2ndPart},Mana,Aura,Mount,Me,Summon,End,0]} || (${FindItemCount[=${Buffs[${i}]}]}>=1 && ${Select[${Spell[${Buffs[${i}]}].TargetType},self]}) || (${FindItemCount[${1stPart}]}>=1 &&...

You read my mind. :) That is one of the things I have in mind. Creating an interface to the c++ containers vector, map and unordered map. And possibly some of the algorithms. I don't know how many of the mq2 data types I can support. Maybe just strings and int.

MQ2 got a new language feature: functions. See http://www.macroquest2.com/wiki/index.php/Subroutines_and_Functions. How could you live so long without that ? Also /while and /for loops can now be nested within each other. And /continue and /break will work for both.

I was talking about /while. /for works fine indeed.

That's work in progress. In a macro near you soon. :)

In the menu use Profiles->Open INI file and edit it manualy.

That's the next thing I plan to look at once functions are sorted out. It should work for /while and /for with nesting.

Out of curiosity I counted how often /break and /continue are used in all macros in the RG distribution. To my surprise that number was just 1 each. Of course not beeing mentioned in the wiki until yesterday might have contributed to this situation. So what are these commands doing ? You can end...

Re: MQ2EasyFind: Crowdfunding with RedGuides ultra rares Might be a good idea to put this on the front page like you did for MQ2Nav.

LootSort.exe is included in your Release/Macros folder. Lootsort.exe is a little utility that will alphabeticaly sort each section in your Loot.ini file from the MQ2AutoLoot plugin. This will make manualy editing this file a bit easier. It will sort Loot.ini into Loot.ini.sav and if all goes...
