Auto Macros **Old 2017 THREAD**

Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

not sure whats going on with autocleric but it was working all fine until i left paw to goto raid and come back and set my group back up and it just wont work. i didnt change 1 setting just /end and logged clr out until raid was over and logged back in and now he wont heal me for shit. Also clr keeps spamming hand of virtue when it still has over 3hrs.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

same problem for me, was on a raid with a few tanks on Extended target window, not sure if thats the cause
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Something weird going on with healers since the last patch. I switched from Autocleric because it wasn't healing group members. But my MQ2 Cleric macro seemed to prioritize dps and buffs over heals, which it has never done before. I switched off DPS and that seemed to work until the next time I logged on and then heals stopped happening again. Maybe there is something in the main program that is causing both Macros to act weird?
With all the talented people working on this stuff I am sure it will be fixed soon.

Am I the only one having problems after the 31st update. It doesnt change targets to heal someone else, sometimes it tries to rezz someone and if the corpse is still there, it doesnt change targets and just starts healing the corpse.

This sounds like the common denominator is Extended Target. Can you all clear your Extended Targets and set them to Auto and see if this fixes things? I will check the Extended Target code and see if I can optimize it further.

Just to add: Make sure Extended Target 1 is set to Auto. The macro REQUIRES you to have the first slot on Auto.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

ive restarted PC and deleted my files for clr ini and ran /auto on him and he still isnt doing anything. he wont start a CH until my sk is at 25% or not even at all.

I will see what I can find in the code for complete heal on TLP. As I don't play on TLP I am shooting in the dark, so any additional information is helpful. Does it cast Heal of Time? Does it work under certain conditions? Does it not work under certain conditions?

I know Kiss has a bunch of testing on TLP and might be a better option for you. Kiss has quite a few people working on the macro as well, and I believe they have chars to test it out. I am a one-man band and just don't have the time to do any testing on TLP.

any way to limit auto war's camp radius?
Click to expand...

The variable is AutoCampRadius and I messed up and didn't setup my alias correctly. I'll fix this in the next update.

With the macro running you can change it by typing
Rich (BB code): 
/varset AutoCampRadius 20 (or whatever number)

Or you can change this line of code in autosubs.inc to have it always set:
Rich (BB code): 
Sub VarSetup
	/declare autotargetid	int outer 0
	/declare sittimer		timer outer 0
	/declare enablesit		int outer 0
	/declare ReturnToCamp	int outer 0
	/declare AutoCampRadius	int outer 50
	/declare AutoCampX		int outer ${Me.X}
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Hi,

Wanted to supply some additional info that may or may not help with finding a solution. Sorry that is about all I am able to do since I am not very tech savvy. (I couldn't even find the Extended Target settings :( ). But wanted to add, I play on a TLP also and have noticed since the last patch a few strange things. AutoCleric stopped healing consistently, it still would heal occasionally but would still do buffs and DPS consistently. So I turned off DPS and that didn't change the situation. So I went with Kiss Cleric, Kiss Cleric had the same problem. It would occasionally heal but just not consistently. Last thing I tried was to roll back AutoCleric to the previous version that worked perfectly. However, it now is affected by the new problem. From a lay persons perspective it almost seems that the problem is one of priorities. Seems heals are lower priority and the program is doing DPS and buffs first and will sometimes heal. Even when you turn off buffs and DPS it doesn't seem to move heals to first priority.

Also have had a funny thing happen with my Enchanter which may or may not be related. At some random point (may be related to moving and resetting camp but not sure) the enchanter will stop mezzing. It will still do all the other things, just not mezz. So it seems similar, like it moves mezzing from being priority. Enchanter can be fixed by simply restarting the macro which unfortunately doesn't work as a fix on the cleric problem. Hope this info helps someone smarter than me to see what the problem could be. Thanks

Update: Ok this is a weird development. I had been using the Kiss Cleric and noticed that it was healing the other members in group when they occasionally needed heals but was not throwing CH on the MA/Main Tank so I was manually healing the tank. Switched the macro to AutoCleric to see if it was doing the same thing. Well AutoCleric seemed to work fine for the next hour of play. Not sure if switching from Kiss Cleric to AutoCleric some how reset and fixed the problem or if it was just coincidence and if this is permanent or temporary.

I am on Live and it seems to be behaving, more or less: I have had to restart the macro a couple of times but that is probably down to me camping a character out and then logging back in or disbanding a char for COH etc.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

My autowar insists on using field defender instead of field protector. he's lvl 105, has both discs, have camped/logged/ended and restarted mac to no avail

any suggestions?
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

any one else having the issue with auto war constantly sit/standing when out of combat?
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

you have mq2afnuke or mq2heals on for other toons ? if so turn it off , something is buggy with it.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

my damn warrior likes go fucking nuts and running everywhere ill pull with my bard and the warrior will run way away from camp either out of range of hills or far enough my serker wont slap the mob
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Maybe I missed it but I can't get my cleric to nuke in autocleric. /manatonuke 75 is what I typed. But it doesn't do anything..

i have been having this issue a lot recently. something to do with battle rezzes i think but i cant figure it out. it is defiantly holding me back forcing me to die, firecamp back and researt everything after manually rezzing.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

The spam healing corpses thing sucks. Happens to me frequently. While it's running right, the cleric macro is amazing!
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Question,

Friend and I are trying to get this to throw in some HoT spells (namely elixir of the seas) to keep him better topped off while swarming. Yes I've tried telling him he doesnt need it but he wants it ;P

We tried using byos, but doesnt seem to be using it. Anything we can do?

Thanks!

No, HoT ONLY makes sense below lvl 85. If you are above it, it simply won't use it, because it's terribly inefficient and doesn't make any sense. If he wants to underperform and use HoTs, I highly recommend KissAssist, as I know it will let you ;) Tell him I said, "Only winners use autocleric, and winners don't use HoTs."
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

The difference is Kiss LETS YOU USE an HoT if you want since everyone plays a cleric differently.

Kiss stopped healing corpses like 5 years ago. The main lesson here is having lots of corpses when using Autocleric.

Shots fired! Good to see you trolling the Auto Macro thread ;)

Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

both are great macs. But in personal experience, since i use both. You have to know more about the cleric, to optimize Kiss and be as effective healing groups with auto.

This is also happening to me. The war does not just stand still, it keeps moving, it seems to keep adjusting its position but never stops and then drags the mob across the zone. it happens more times then just standing still. Any clue?
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Couple requests for the war then :xd:

Any way you could get war to pop aa projection for stuff like named? Seems brace of impact doesn't fire very often either when it's 100% uptime. Chest clicky too! Just started playing around with it and notice so many abilities going unused. However I LOVE the positioning that it does. Great work!

I also witnessed my warrior running around erratically yesterday, not quite across the zone but certainly moving the mob around the camp area a lot.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

I am trying the autowarrior and having some issue with it.

Each time i start it it rewrite the config file. So it doesn't keep the followtoon and AutoCampHold value.
Also if i do /camphere i get Set ReturnToCamp: but he doesn't stop following.
Also if i do /chase with a target i get Set ChaseAssist: but he doesn't change the value or follow the target

I need to do /cahseoff to have him stop but he never return to camp. I am using the version provided in the first post.

Autosub is Version 5.0
AutoWarrior is Version 1.4.0

If you need more info let me know.

Thanks
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Can i turn off Battle Leap for the War? it annoying.

Thanks
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

battle leap provides a pretty decent permanent buff, welll once you zone it needs to be recast again, so it shoudl only battle leap one time.

use /returntocamp 1 and /returntocamp 0 to turn on the camp settings, works everytime.

My War battle leaps every time its up, that's why i asked if it can be turned off. It only needs to fire one time in a new zone
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

that sounds wierd, only thing i can think off, is that you do not have aa in it for it to stick perma, i believe you need to rank it up to rank 4 or 5 for that.

max AA on my war. /shrug

-- update --

never mind all, nothing to see here... move along...

i just turned it off in mq2melee
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

i donno about you guys but my auto cleric donest seem worth it right now... it just heals to someone that needs heals. and then wont switch back to heal the tank even tho its marked as MT... autocleric set on him... and nothing in ETW... group area.... I donno if mi the only person having this problem. I hope there is a fix on the way =/ It was fantastic before the Oct 31st update. not sure what changed it.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

When I zone, even pausing macro before zoning, the cleric wants to heal "NULL" and never targets anyone in the group to heal.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Just curious, any update on,
Classes that are being coded - No ETA
-Enchanter
-Shaman
-Beserker
-Beastlord
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

from another post:

I was talking with toots (another RG member) and auto macro enthusiast. He has modded a zerker, druid, and beastlord using the auto macro subs as a base. I am putting together a bit of a revamp with videos so RedGuides community members can do this in a much easier fashion. I have seen several macros come out recently and many PMs of other members do this exact thing.

So, after much debate. I am going to continue to focus on Cleric, Warrior, and Bard (I also play a monk so I'll easily toss him in), but I want to make it so YOU loyal Red Guide member can use these macros to make the ultimate (fill in blank) class macro for the community. I will make a video showing the methods I use to fill out the spells, and how to fire AAs / items / spells when conditions are met. Since you all main these other classes, it should be you to set the conditions. Once approved we will post them here for everyone to use. Don't worry if you don't have coding experience, I can simplify my macros a bit more and tell you guys how to make them perform the way they should and for the class that you want.

I keep wanting to expand to all classes and I think leveraging our awesome community is the way to teach, learn, and create the best possible macros the Red Guides community has EVER SEEN!

Stay tuned, I hope to have another update by the end of the month. from noobhaxor
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

For the zerker one see [https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/59524-IHCZerker-1-1-Berzerker-bot-Updated-11-23-17] which is pretty strongly based on noobs auto framework.

I have a 105 beast and druid one I will release soon, if I ever get a chance to clean up code. If anyone plays these two classes well I would appreciate some prerelease feedback.

Edit: I was planning on working on a shaman one next, but probably won't get started on it until after the new year. If this is a class you play, the druid one I have could be pretty easily adapted for a shaman.
 
Re: Auto Macros **MEGA THREAD**

Is anyone still having issues with AutoCleric? I just came back after a long break and I have used it in the past as my healer but now it seems slow and sluggish..and just lets group members die..as well as spamming corpses with heal.
