Release Explore.Mac - An Explorer / Traveler Achievement Macro 1.3.1

[Sic]

Every time it goes back to pok it buys lev potions from baz then tries to get them from parcel vendor but just leaves them

yeah i had an issue opened on this a while back - thought denethor pushed an update to it

 

[Connie]

Doing LDoN Deep Guk adventures I cannot get out of the tent on any of them.

 

[zathus]

Love the macro but man do i wish we could turn off engaging all mobs that agro and invis. for LDoNs its half the problems. no reason to worry about greys.

 

[vickvinegar]

Might want to cap the price on stuff you buy from baz. Couple of my toons tried to spend 1m plat on stacks of lev potions.

 

[Isayhooah]

I really appreciate all the hard work that has gone into this, thank you so much. my only "issue" is that on my zerker I have had to stop it and start it a few times for her to use her cloudy potions, it's listed as her invis item 1 and 2 and she has 200.. but once I get it restarted no other issues. Seems to be only on my zerker so far...

I used this mac a few weeks ago & the potions were all whacked up in price on my server too - lucky I checked before hand and put all my plat in the bank!

 

[godsfshrmn]

Can you add a way to specify a mount? I suppose that may be a bad idea because it does mess with nav in tighter, old zones like kaladim or neriak

Another thought I had was to add an audible beep or window flash if your character has not moved in say 5 minutes?

Mounts, indeed, cause too many problems with navigation, especially once aggro comes into play.
And that would require tracking where the player is every five minutes. I'll think about it.

 

[wwarwolf911]

This could easily be modified to make "An Epic Request" macro. The hardest part would be adding the specific class parts, but that could be left up to the user... But the navigation to all the locations would could be added. Any thoughts or plans on developing a mod?

 

[Denethor]

It was mentioned earlier. My answer then and now - If there's enough interest, I'll develop it.

 

[EQChick]

Oh yes! Do the epic request run around thing! Please, please, please?

 

[turnittotheright]

saw the mac in the earlier stages of development. felt it was only right i support it now that the full verson has been released and i needed to run a new toon.
with that said he got stuck in WW soon as he zoned in on the heading to dalnir path. mac skiped a handful of zones for kunark after that.

 

[Myndbender]

great macro Thanks again! maybe i missed something but I can't get it to run LDON. it just ends in PoK

 

[Denethor]

If you downloaded through the Launcher, it downloads v1.0.3. Download from the site. You can download v1.1.0(Alpha) that has LDoN supported.

 

[Myndbender]

ok Thank you will give that a shot tonite.

 

[Wolfborn]

I know this is a macro for a single player but has anyone tried using it for a group or a duo? Something with some firepower to take down the masses?
My lvl 110 Enc has been killed a few times simply from being overwhelmed by light blue mobs.

/plugin mq2afnuke
/nuke on
and pop out a merc.

Once I did that, I survived shit way better.

 

[Sum1]

you may have to configure mq2afnuke to resume upon zone.... and as a enchanter, you'll have to make sure its not configured to mezz. If you do that, though, it should work fine.

 

[Denethor]

To be fair, I do give a warning for Underfoot and beyond on the main page.

 

[verc189]

After updates to fix the chat window issues, I am now getting zone crashes every zone with this macro running. Anything i can do to stop them?

 

[Denethor]

Make sure you're not running EQBS and Dannet at the same time... ? The macro shouldn't be able to trigger a crash on its own.

 

[awnelson17]

I don't understand the Bard workaround. Can someone please explain? In my case, Shauri's Clouding and Selo's appear to be constantly overwriting each other and causing a hangup, even though I purchased a bunch of invis pots for my bard.

Thank you.

 

[verc189]

Ditched EQBC quite awhile ago, but no it is not running at the same time as dannet. I will unload all plugins except the basics and load one at a time till the crashes start

 

[verc189]

unloaded all plugins but the needed ones, and was able to complete Faydwer. Now when I try to launch explore to do Antontica I get:

What level are you? It's written for lvl 110 and should just cast Selo's then the combo Shauri's and go...

I have not run the macro since XPac dropped. I'll look into it. That said, the messages look like something changed in MQ... How did you install the macro? Launcher auto-install or manually downloaded?

 

[ChatWithThisName]

Selo's changed Denethor. I'm not sure of the details, but I know that Selo's Sonota changed to cast the highest level XXX spell you have scribed.

Honestly, due to the constant nerfing of bards, and their complexity in general, I've went ahead and parked my bard for the time being.

Here is the selo's from my kiss ini - Basically selos will now cast Selo's Accelerato if rank 1 and Selo's Accelrando if rank 2 (they also nerfed the duration - which is a real bummer) Discussion HERE

Selo's Sonata|Cond16
!${Me.Buff[Selo's Accelerato].ID} && !${Me.Buff[Selo's Accelerando].ID}

I did both, first time through the launcher, then when I encountered problems I read about the v1.03 and v1.10 you mentioned so I manually downloaded the macro.

 

[Denethor]

I'll have to write a patch for Selo's in the next few days.

Launcher. My Bard is 110.

 

[Wolfborn]

Just now running a lvl 100 SK.
When going from Sol B to Sol C.. it's looking for lev and tries to cast the "Steed of Souls" which can't be cast indoors.
Any way to change that to "Bobbing corpse" spell?

 

[Denethor]

Look in the Macros\Explore\Explore_<server>_<toon>.ini file for the LevClickie entry. Put in levClickie=Philter of Gulon's Impunity and buy a couple of those in Bazaar.

 

[verc189]

I know we are just getting past the holidays, but has there been any movement on getting a fix/update?

 

[Denethor]

Not yet. I've been focused on levelling up since the new xpac dropped, and the holidays. I'll get back to work soon.

in ExploreSub.inc
this works for my bard who has 1 level of Selos Sonata

| SUB: castSelos
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub castSelos
|-leave sub if we have Selo's on us
/if (${Me.Buff[Selo's Accelerando].ID}) {

} else /if (${Me.AltAbilityReady[Selo's Sonata]}) {
/alt act ${Me.AltAbility[Selo's Sonata]}
}

All of my caster/healers are FTP with weak mercs that don't do much of anything. I just make a MQP on and MQP off hotkey. When they zone into an area and explorer indicates "Heading to XXX", I hit MQP on to pause the mac so it the toon doesn't try to fight and just runs till it zones. Then heal up, runes if you got em and MQP off and after it is heading to the next zone, MQP on.

 

[tshadow]

Is there a way to make sure it retarget's me when i need to invis again. I use Cobalt Greaves and it just sits there saying need a valid target. This also goes into a loop when trying to go between Oceangreen Hills and Oceangreen Village. Just keeps zoning in and out of the 2 zones.

 

[tshadow]

Okay tried this with Bard and he stops every few feet to cast Selo's and I did put the workaround in the sub.inc file but it still acting up. I also made sure that i am running explore 1.1.0 beta as well.

 

[Denethor]

I've been busy with some work issues. I'll be back to this soon. Current issue summary:
1. Target self on invis cast
2. Fix for bard selo's changes
3. Update nav code for exiting Mistmoore Catacomb instances to hopefully find the door. (These zones are really messed up. The door is on the mesh buried deed inside the model being used as the door that ISN'T on the mesh. If that make sense.)
4. Add Steed of Souls to exclusion list for Lev Sources

Anything I'm forgetting?

 

[tshadow]

May want to provide an option to turn off fight as in ROS, EOK, etc it ends in death most of the time especially on run to VP.
Looping between Oceangreen Hills and Oceangreen Village, just keeps zoning back and forth.
