Question - bst not meming spells

[Tocanman]

Hello there RG Community, I'm having a little bit of a problem with my beast. Every time I start my TLP macro, the beast starts to want to mem the spells I have in the mac, but never actually mems any spells or casts anything.

Hello there RG Community, I'm having a little bit of a problem with my beast. Every time I start my TLP macro, the beast starts to want to mem the spells I have in the mac, but never actually mems any spells or casts anything.

is this your mac or a mac someone else made?

the reason i ask is there is a comment in the macro that says

| note that all spells but buffs are NOT auto memorized, if you want them used, keep them in gems
| buffs will auto mem on slot 8. If you have a long re-use buff, you can reserve it in another slot to avoid the wait time

which leads me to believe you are supposed to mem your spells yourself (other than buffs)

 

[Tocanman]

1. yes someone else made. 2. Correct, but on my cleric and ranger it uses gem 8 to mem the spells one by one as it goes and buffs.
The person whom gave it to me said to make sure nothing in gem 8 unless im ok with always losing that slot do to this

 

[Tocanman]

It acts like it wants to it takes the spell out the slot just doesn't replace with a spell. Was leaving me to believe it was human error on a spell mistake or a shortname mistake.

Oh I was just thinking that maybe the mq2bst plugin is conflicting with it. the BYOS tab maybe. I'll have to check after patch

if you're running mq2bst and also trying to run a macro that is doing other stuff - you're going to have bad results

 

[Tocanman]

ya so what I usually do is just use the /mac tlp for the /echo buff then end it. and just use mq2bst for rest. I'm Brand spankin new to mq2 and coding lol. But I'm reading everything I can, soon I will have conditions or at least be able to use them

sounds like you're already kickin ass if you're brand new and figuring all this stuff out! keep it up

you could add a line to /bst pause on at the start and then a /bst pause off at the end if you still wanted to use it in this manner

 

[Tocanman]

For the plugin or the mac? And thank you! It's not easy learning all this, on top of being away from technology for a Decade. lol

yeah if you want to stop using the plugin to run a macro - you can have the macro do a /bst pause on (which pauses mq2bst) and then a /bst pause off to unpause mq2bst when you're done

 

[Tocanman]

I’m going to have to use that then instead. Right now I’m just running and unloading the Mac, turning BYOS on/off then unloading the Mac

Off topic question - do all 3 of the Devs for donation split the tips or just luck of the draw?

3 of the MQ2 Devs have a place to "tip"

https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/tip-the-mq2-devs.71538/

 

[Tocanman]

right i was wondering if they split it.. if they don't then im going to give all 3 something, but if they split it then ill just do a decent 1

no, each of those 3 devs have a "tip" link to tip them directly

 

[Tocanman]

TY

 

[Tocanman]

do you have one ?

 

[Sic]

do you have one ?

I do not :p but mq2bst and mq2shaman proceeds go to me, so you already supported me which i sincerely appreciate

 

[Tocanman]

awesome I have both, and just did the donate to all 3 so should be good to go. lol

 

[Tocanman]

Ok so I just donated to all 3 but somehow donated to branniac 2 times. LOL so I just hit D and EQ with theirs

 

[Tocanman]

and I know your super helpful so before you even offer to try and get that fixed its 100% OK lol
