You have to have macroquest2 working to use these. Everyone here should be able to get MQ2 working, and I won't stand it if you don't.
Unzip the following files into your macros folder (the one inside your release folder)
You MUST unzip common.zip to your macros folder or else none of these will work.

Ok, I am, as my title here indicates.....a cute little newb lol. Marco's are something new to me and I am not quite following what it is that I need to do here. MQ2...is this something I need to download and then once completed....I can then download these tradeskill files? Thanks for your help on this and sorry for the noobish type question....tis the only way we learn lol... :p
Of course, it's the only way to learn!
That's why Redguides exists, everywhere else I've looked is mean or rude to people just starting out. It's perfectly ok to ask, no flames or ridicule here. Aside from your title that is.
Yes, you need to get Macroquest2 to use these. It's a program that makes Everquest 100x more fun. It is something you download and then "compile", which probably sounds hard but isn't. If you have trouble compiling it, check out Zedmix's help thread:
http://www.redguides.com/community/showthread.php?t=29
If you have any problems at all or Zedmix suddenly disappears, ask me and I'll help you.
After you get MQ2 working, just "unzip" these files (using a free program like winzip, if you need help on that just ask) to a folder called "macros" in your "release" folder which is in your "macroquest2" folder.
Then while in-game, type /mac jewelcraft (or whatever the tradeskill file is called) and you'll be running the macro. You'll need to do a little set-up first but all of the instructions are found in the zip files, and you can always post here for help.

I tried the JC macro above last night in Abysmal Sea as the mac file suggested. Once I started it, it started buying the bar component endlessly until the plat ran out. Which part of the macro is broken that should be limiting the purchase to 20 bars so that I can fix it?
Does anyone have a macro or would be willing to create one that would max smithing to 250? Say the smith is a tunare worshipping cleric, that way he could make mistletoe cutting sickles all by himself. Can anyone help me since I don't know anything about writing macros?
You guys did download the common.zip and extract those macros before the jewelcraft and smithing ones, correct?
No matter which one you're running, you need to extract common.zip first.
Also: Kool, those problems have been fixed and the offsets in that thread you linked are out of date.

The reason it does not work is because on the mq2 forums they posted the patch to resolve this issue... it involves recompiling mq2 however =/ Here is the patch that will make the tradeskills macros work. also, not all macros will take you to 250 skill.
These offsets were off in eqgame.h, that's why SelectedItem wasn't working (they were reversed).
Works with this:

Look in your MQ2 folder, wherever you installed it. Inside there is a folder named "release". Inside the Release folder is your Macro folder. Just remember to make a new folder inside the macro folder named "common" like the directions say or the macro's will not work. Personally, I started using these last week and since that point...
250 jewel craft
188 pottery
115 smith
190 brewing
180 baking
I could have had them higher, but each of those were done in a matter of hours not days and I am limited in play time. Awesome macros.

ok i got it fixed just copy all files to everywhere your baking or whatever is in and it will work(kinda stupid but not wure where i put original)
anyway can anyone make this simple i want to be able to tell it which to combine and it will do all combines as long as i have ingredients or i can plug in merchant names and loc's and components and it goes till i run out of money on toon
i'm combining for skill and sellable food beer-battered tuna pie
it is now broke again anyway you can make one that uses a ini file that can be inputed to like
Combo 1
{patty melt}
ingredient 1
so on and so forth
and then it searches if you have it if not it will go to a merchant that you specify and buys 40 or a number you specify
been tryin to make one of these for a bit but never work for multiple combines and now no longer works for any combines being i messed it up so bad

Overide wrote most of the tradeskill macro's that everyone is using. He is recently come back to eq and has stated that he will be updating the macro's when he can to get them to higher skill lvl's. I've not heard anymore beyond that or when he will have the chance to get them updated. As for if they are working, I used every one of them tonight to check and all of them are still working fine for me.

Alos another problem is that for most of the tradeskills in order to get to sertain lvls you have to use farmed items. some can be done with store bought but liek smithing and tailoring there are some some things that have to be farmed/ bazaar bought

well, if the macro's are working poperly, and forgive me for not checking to see if they are back and working with the new merchant window, all you have to do is make sure you are standing in front of the correct starting npc, start macro, walk away......
Look into the top part of the macro and it will usually always tell you which npc to stand in front of and in what zone. Most of them are for Abysmal, but occasionly other zones as well. If the macro is made correctly, it will buy items, go to the forge, kiln, etc...., do the combines till out of ingredients, go back to vendor and sell the items back, rinse and repeat.

Is there anything in the smith macro needed to be changed in orfer for the new buy.inc to work? Also can u post a link to the thread where the new buy.inc is? And for those of us who are willing to donate for acces to the VIP forums can get the file?
