Discussion - EMU - Lua's and Macro's

[Daneki]

Is there a list of preferred Lua's and Macro's to be used on an EMU server?

Click on Resources above and then select the EMU button to filter only EMU items.

A lot of folks use the RGMercs Lua on EMU I'm told. I haven't started on EMU yet.

The automations I use most on Project Lazarus:

• RGMercs (Lua)
  • Algar has done an amazing job making the class configs for Lazarus better.
  • Not much setup, just turn on and go.
  • Can optimize or edit yourself if you are comfortable with Lua.
  • Algar and Derple are available to ask if you run into an issue.
  • You will need to bring your own looting automation such as LootNScoot.
• KissAssist
  • Works really well.
  • Biggest issue on emu is wrapping your head around what makes your emu server different such as custom spells and out of era abilities.
  • CTaylor is active in the support section of the forums if you run into trouble.
  • You can opt to use the built in Ninjadvloot or bring your own looting automation.
• E3
  • E3 is a bit more powerful than KissAssist and includes some features that you'd need additional automations running with KissAssist to replicate.
  • I am not always a fan of the syntax choices of E3 as I think KissAssist has some really pretty ini files.
  • Very solid and a Project Lazarus server favorite for a reason.
  • Rekka is super responsive and eager to help if you have issues.
  • E3 includes its own looting automation but you can disable and use your own.
  • E3 includes its own broadcast suite, its own autogroup like entity, as well as autoaccept.

EDIT: I was recently able to figure out how to run E3 combat automation within RedGuide's VeryVanilla. This was a big unlock for me personally as I am easily able to use all of RG's awesome tools and quickly switch between combat automations. It might be my imagination but E3 runs better on VV.

Some other automations I've had success with on Lazarus:

• Lootnscoot - Really nice looting system. Fast, efficient, lots of customization of loot rules, IMGui interface!
• Turboloot - Only works if you aren't already running a macro so no KissAssist. It is a one button, clean up the corpses kind of macro.
• XTarget Xtended - If you aren't running RGMercs and need a better XTarget window, this is it!
• MyChat - Chat windows on emu kinda suck, this fixes that.
• Button Master - All your commands, better than EQ hotkeys.
• Bazaar/Auction Helper - Need help managing your bazaar mule?
• Lazarus BIS - Best in slot items and organization for Lazarus.
• EZInventory - Great IMGui based group inventory manager.
• EasyFind Override - Algar has done a great job shoring up EasyFind for Lazarus so /travelto works correctly!
• Magellan - If you are using Algar's EasyFind override, this enables Magellan to work correctly (could use some trimming down of zones that don't exist on Lazarus... but its Lua so you can do this yourself)

If I missed any that I use regularly, I'll edit this list. This should get people started though as we've covered all bases I think.

Thanks for this. You are making me want to hop back into Laz again.
