*** IMPORTANT***
(as of September 2023 we make the aliases for you if you dont already have them)
To use the /cwtn and /cwtna etc ALIASES, please make sure you create them.
There are instructions down below.


Please don't listen to the "Chase Button" in the video. Use the Chase Button code down below
This video was created BEFORE many of the hotkeys in this guide.
So please make sure you take the time to read it.

***
Since Chat just added all of the CWTN plugins to use shortnames for their commands you can also replace any /${Berzerker.Command with /docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName} and not have to have mq2berzerker
***

​


and then
Hotkeys I use with my CWTN/Kiss team

--- anyone not running the matching automation would get an error for the commands if you're using mixed automations
--- this means an SK using mq2eskay doing a /camphere on is going to get a red error message because they're not using kissassist
--- this is ok, you can ignore this.

-------------------------
Create the CWTN Aliases

*** IMPORTANT***
For any toon to use these alias commands they either have to a: Create the alias themselves, or b: log back into macroquest AFTER the alias is created in your macroquest.ini

The absolute easiest way to add aliases:

  1. open up your macroquest.ini
  2. paste in the aliases you want from the examples below under the [ALIASES] section
  3. save your macroquest.ini
  4. /alias reload on everyone - /dgae /alias reload or /bcaa //alias reload

if you need to know what your ini should look like after the entries are there, scroll down there are examples.

You can make this alias to use dannet/eqbc to easily send your group to do the same command. Dannet is recommended, but EQBC works fine too.

This is "cleaner" and easier to read than using the "/noparse /bcg //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName} blah" for every hotkey.
"/cwtn" is the alias we create for the 'ChatWithThisName' (the original creator) class plugins, "cwtn" is an abbreviation of chat's name, the alias makes it easier to broadcast commands.

the intent here with the "a" or "r" is as such
/cwtn - this is group not including yourself
/cwtna - this is group including yourself
/cwtnr - this is raid/everyone not including yourself
/cwtnra - this is raid/everyone including yourself
/cwtnz - this is for zone not including yourself
/cwtnza - this is for zone including yourself

"/cwtn mode 0" would use dannet/eqbc to have everyone go mode 0,
"/cwtna mode 0" would have everyone including yourself go mode 0 (CWTNA, A for all).

for dannet your macroquest.ini entries would look like:
(the extra "\" is the dannet equivalent of a "/noparse"
INI: 
[Aliases]
/cwtn=/dgge /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtna=/dgga /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnr=/dgre /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnra=/dgra /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnz=/dgze /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnza=/dgza /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
also acceptable:
INI: 
[Aliases]
/cwtn=/noparse /dgge /docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtna=/noparse /dgga /docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnr=/noparse /dgre /docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnra=/noparse /dgra /docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}

for EQBC your macroquest.ini entries would look like:
INI: 
[Aliases]
/cwtn=/noparse /bcg //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtna=/noparse /bcga //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnr=/noparse /bca //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnra=/noparse /bcaa //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}

These aliases allow me to just "/cwtna burnallnamed off" and have the entire group including me turn burnallnamed off or "/cwtn mode 2" for everyone not me to go in mode 2

If you want kissassist to be able to toggle on/off burns you can utilize the ${BurnAllNamed} Variable kiss has

/varset BurnAllNamed 0 to turn off burns in kissassist
/varset BurnAllNamed 1 to turn on burns in kissassist

if you are using burns in your dps routine (like my bard ini) you will want to append && ${BurnAllNamed} in each condition that is a burn condition

example:
INI: 
dps1=burn thing|99|cond1
cond1=${Target.Named} && ${BurnAllNamed}

For all of these buttons - make sure you understand if you're using EQBC or using Dannet, and adjust them accordingly.

CampOn Keys:
(this one you will want to edit for your "driver toon" as you can see either war mode 7 or shd mode 7 is normally what i have, as well as a resetcamp for the driver as well. this will ensure when i hit my CampOn button that my driver resets their camp (since resetting your mode while in your mode doesn't, unless you cycle to 0 and then back).

Adding / Starting a new toon Hotkeys / Commands:
There are a few commands/hotkeys that I use when i'm setting up a new toon. These have the settings that > I < personally use, so you will want to adjust them for your usage.

Set-up AutoAccept
using eqbc, i want everyone, to add everyone else online to the autoaccept "trust" list
INI: 
/noparse /bcaa //multiline ; /plugin mq2autoaccept load; /timed 10 /bcaa //autoaccept add ${Me.Name}; /timed 15 /autoaccept save

Dannet Variant:
INI: 
/noparse /dgae /multiline ; /plugin mq2autoaccept load; /timed 10 /dgae /autoaccept add ${Me.Name}; /timed 15 /autoaccept save

Set-up MQ2Rez
(the default delay for mq2rez is 5.1 seconds, adjust this to what you would like to use, I'm not suggesting that *YOU* use 0, but that is what i use)
INI: 
/bcaa //multiline ; /plugin mq2rez load; /timed 5 /rez accept on; /timed 10 /rez acceptpct 90; /timed 15 /rez delay 0

Dannet Variant:
INI:

INI: 
/bcaa //multiline ; /plugin mq2aaspend load; /timed 5 /aaspend bank 200; /timed 10 /aaspend order 53214; /timed 15 /aaspend brute on; /timed 20 /aaspend save

Dannet Variant:

/dgae /multiline ; /plugin mq2aaspend load; /timed 5 /aaspend bank 200; /timed 10 /aaspend order 53214; /timed 15 /aaspend brute on; /timed 20 /aaspend save

Check everyone in raid to see if they have any pending personal loot

Less: 
/dg raid /dgtell all $\{AdvLoot.PCount}


*** OTHER USEFUL STUFFS ***

> GuildClicky < replaces the example below

This alias will use your "Umbral Scrying Stone" if you are standing next to it

then you can just /umbral

INI: 
/alias /umbral /multiline ; /itemtarget ${Ground.Search[Umbral Plains Scrying Bowl]}; /timed 3 /click right item ; /timed 15 /notify "Teleport to Umbral Plains" menuselect


I decided to make a resource that has some of the hotkeys I use for my toons - one because I get asked for them a lot and two so I have a record of them if i lost my hard drive or something lol

After the "Bannening" I've decided to try and make all of my hotkeys void of hard-coded names, and use class finds instead
I plan on making some videos in the future available for RG members, once caption gets fixed

Here are some of my older keys:
- Some of these are no longer used, but some folks might find use in checking them out so they're included here still just in case.

Kiss Start Hotkey
i used this to start kiss on everyone that was not a berzerker or rogue in my group (who wasn't the person issuing the command). This uses a ${Select}
you can add any additional class shortnames to the list that you want to skip because they're running something else.
INI: 
/noparse /bcg //if (!${Select[${Me.Class.ShortName},BER,ROG]}) /mac kissassist assist ${Group.MainTank} 98

Bard Invis - I want bard to stop singing, then toss a fresh selos, then hit invis AA - and everyone to dismount
INI: 
/noparse /bcg //if (${Me.Class.ShortName.Equal[BRD]}) /twist off
/noparse /bcg //if (${Me.Class.ShortName.Equal[BRD]}) /alt act 3704
/noparse /bcg //if (${Me.Class.ShortName.Equal[BRD]}) /alt act 231
/bcg //dismount

or Multiline Bard Invis - I want bard to stop singing, then toss a fresh selos, then hit invis AA - and everyone to dismount
INI: 
/noparse /bcg //if (${Me.Class.ShortName.Equal[BRD]}) /multiline ; /mqp on; /timed 5 /twist off; /alt activate 3704; /alt activate 231
/bcg //dismount

or DanNet bard invis - I want bard to stop singing, then toss a fresh selos, then hit invis AA
INI: 
/dex bardname  /multiline ; /mqp on; /timed 5 /twist off; /timed 10 /alt activate 3704; /timed 15 /alt activate 231

Pause - this will pause any macro my group is running, and stop any bard from twisting
INI: 
/bcga //mqp on
/noparse /bcga //if (${Me.Class.ShortName.Equal[BRD]}) /timed 5 /twist off

Unpause - unpause
INI: 
/bcga //mqp off

Visible - makes everyone in my group including me, uninvis
INI: 
/bcga //makemevis

Remove Levitation - makes everyone remove their levitation buff
INI: 
/bcga //removelev

MakeMeFall (CWTN Plugins have a makemefall command) - makes everyone remove their levitation buff
INI: 
/bcga //makemefall

Switch Target
I use both the switchnow and a force target because I run mq2rogue/mq2berzerker and kiss (altho now with switchwithma turned on the cwtn class plugins they will automatically swap with the ma)
INI: 
/bcga //target id ${Target.ID}
/bcga //switchnow

Manually a Fellowship Camp Fire
This will create a "/setcampfire" button which will create a "generic" fellowship campfire
INI: 
/alias /setcampfire  /multiline ; /nomodkey /notify FellowshipWnd FP_RefreshList leftmouseup; /timed 20 /nomodkey /notify FellowshipWnd FP_CampsiteKitList listselect 1; /timed 30 /nomodkey /notify FellowshipWnd FP_CreateCampsite leftmouseup

Manually an Empowered Fellowship Camp Fire
This will create a "/setcampfire" button which will create an "empowered" fellowship campfire. this requires the campfire components.
INI: 
/alias /setcampfire  /multiline ; /nomodkey /notify FellowshipWnd FP_RefreshList leftmouseup; /timed 20 /nomodkey /notify FellowshipWnd FP_CampsiteKitList listselect 2; /timed 30 /nomodkey /notify FellowshipWnd FP_CreateCampsite leftmouseup

Have everyone use their mount
this will have everyone mount up with the 1st mount in their mount keyring
INI: 
/noparse /bcga //if (!${Me.Mount.ID}) /useitem ${Mount[1]}
