i'll have to check - likely due to spell type - if that mage happens to be using mq2mage you can just request "all" and it'll send pet weapons pack
 
I'm having the same earlier issue reported by another user:
View attachment 53653

Also, when I ask it to display the UI, it flashes quickly and disappears.
My output on the screen looks like this...
My eq client is patched, as well as my mq client.
It's kinda weird, it kinda works, but not completely. I asked for speed of novak from my chanter and it cast it, but it won't cast illusion: werewolf. I have only minimally played with this for the last 20 mins or so.. so it could be just my unfamiliarity of what it is supposed to do.. I'll keep at it, but still.. this screen is wrong I assume?
Thanks

not all spelltypes are supported - this is to ensure no one does stupid stuff and gets you to gate out or kill yourself or other trolly type things - i'll take a look about illusions
 
I am trying to figure out why the MQ2Shaman is not casting Regen for me.. I checked and Group Regen shows Talisman of the Unforgettable as the spell, click it off and it never rebuffs it. Checking the Output is says "talisman is not a valid option!"

Tried delete and reinstall but still getting the same.

you can just ask for "Group Regen" or, if super lazy, just ask for "all"

you are also asking about mq2buffme in mq2shaman thread - which are not the same thing.

i'll move this to the mq2buff me discussion.

what exactly are you typing?

/t shammydude buffme talisman of the unforgettable

so before i was able to tell my shaman /buffme growth and he would do it not he is saying that isnt a spell?

if the shaman is using mq2shaman you can /t shamandude buffme growth and it does as expected
if the shaman is not using mq2shaman you can /t shamandude buffme overwhelming growth to request that spell by name
 
He is using mq2shaman and told him /t shaman buffme growth and notta. I’ll check again tonite when I get home

does he have buffme loaded?

what are the settings?

gotta help folks help you :'(
 
Yes buffme is loaded I’ll get some screenshots tonite once I get home
 
ok so if i send the /tell Shaman /buffme growth its works, but if i /dex Shaman /buffme growth it doesnt perhaps im using that in the wrong context

you are using it incorrectly

check the commands

/dex shamandude /buffthem ${Me.Name} growth
 
do AA buffs work too? cant seem to get the enchanter to do Glyph Spray
no
the UI does not seem to come up when I put in /buffme displayui I get

what class is that on - i think for that to happen you would have had to be using a cwtn plugin, and then unloaded it? (it is still a bug that shouldn't happen - and was something that we fixed a while back)

edit: yeah, i can't replicate making that happen - can you give step-by-step on what you did for it to output like that

also - the ui shows when there's stuff to do, do you have stuff to do?

the command would also be /buffme displayui true to display the ui fulltime and not just when there's stuff to do


From the Command Tab:

Basic:
/buffme Help - shows the help menu
/buffme BuffMeOn true/false/on/off/0/1 - Turns on buffme functionality.
/buffme BuffMeSilent true/false/on/off/0/1 - Turns off reply messages.
/buffme BuffMeGuildOnly true/false/on/off/0/1 - Only buff guild members.
/buffme DisplayUI true/false/on/off/0/1 - Always display the UI or not.
/buffme PauseMacros true/false/on/off/0/1 - Turns on pausing a running macro.

/buffme
Show/UI - Temporary toggle the ui window.

/buffme BuffRequestPhrase <buffword> - The word you want to designate for buff requests "Buffme" is default.

/buffme BuffSpellGem ## - This is the spell gem you want to use for buffs.


Examples:

/buffme BuffSpellGem 5; this would change your buff gem to gem 5.

/buffthem

/tell shamandude buffme endure cold
or
on "shamandude" /buffthem ChillyWilly endure cold
 
no

ya the CWTN plugin was messing things up but it still does not pop up unless someone request a buff then I see it but trying to make it load just does not work but will try again later.

if you don't have on displayui then it only pops up when buffs are needed - based on the output you showed (despite being funky) you didn't provide the "true/on/1" value to turn it on.

i confirmed it is/does work when you give it the truthy value.
 
I see this plugin doesnt work in Project Lazarus server.

Sic, do you recommend a good alternative plugin for that server? Thanks!

I need to touch base with redbot again about that. I don't know a good reason why we're not building it for emu atm

In the meantime, can you suggest a similar plugin to auto-buff group members that works in EMU servers please? Thanks!
 
am having issues trying to buff from my cleric. i type in /tell name buffme all from lets say my enchanter or sk and im talking to my cleric and he does nothing. no buffs or anything. now if i ask for a specific spell like temperance he will cast it no problem. i do have mq2cleric loaded and working. i did try the xtarget and it works. i was just curious about y the buffme all wasnt working.
 
Ran into an issue with single target buffs being cast on people with pets who have the same names as their owner.
I've mostly run into this while outside of the guild hall so I was thinking maybe it's just targeting whichever is closest to the
buffer instead of differentiating between pc and npc.

To test I had the pet put on guard and had the pc get closer to the buffer than the pet is and it casts
on the pc every time.

Obvious personal solution would be to rename pets but maybe there's a way to not have to do that?

thanks, yeah i can probably work with that we already care about players before pets, so shouldn't be a problem

hrm, no, we're already using spawnid specifically.

can you give me reproducible steps
 
To reproduce, have a Character and that characters Pet that both have the same name.

Place one or the other closer to the character you're asking for buffs from.

Send the tell for the buff and toon casting the buffs should target whichever

one is closest to it and cast the buff whether it's the player or that players pet with same name.

Edit: Has to be a single target buff, resist magic, chitin of the reptile to name two that I've tested with.
 
Does buff me all do the commitment line for cleric?

I create a button for raids, to give me buffs when I die from tanking when I am raiding as the cleric is busy healing. I originally had the button asking for Helmsbane (symbol), but then saw a post saying ALL can be used to get all buffs.

I just noticed when unpausing my group and hit the give buff button by habit that I received commitment. So, I am asking to verify. I had thought another cleric in raid had been buffing when I had it before.

you can check by requesting it and seeing what gets added to the queue

anyhow, to answer your question

"All" for mq2cleric does "Group Aegolism and Group Vie" - "AllSymbol" for mq2cleric does "Group Symbol" and "Group Vie"

Commitment is cast by "Unified Hand of Infallability" from "Group Aegolism" from using "All"

Sounds like you're wanting "AllSymbol" if you want "Symbol of the Helmsbane"
 
Is there a limit on how many toons can ask for buffs at one time? i do a /dgae /tell caster buffme spirit of eagle (example only) and only 3 of the 6 toons in my group get buffed. also with my roogue i was able to do buffme once and now it will not do anything. i did turn off all my Lua's just in case and still nothing.

No there isn't.

Look at the screen of the buffer and you can see the queued requests
 
No there isn't.

ok i camped came back and tried again. for some reason my rogue will not get anything. i get 4 of my 6 i know the caster wont get it so that leaves 5.
i can do buffthem and that works just not the other way around.

I meant your buffme window.

Sounds like your rogues msg isn't being processed. Should look at settings - I guess maybe language?

First off i did check the buffme window and nothing appeared there. all that would happen is the border of the window frame for my caster would blink (i have split screen so i can see both at the same time) and no msg would popup on either side.
Second i did check the language and yes my begger had it on a language that he was only like 36. i verified with all languages and if the caster does not understand the begger then nothing will happen. i tried one language i had at 84 and it would work 1 out 5 tries. So lesson for today is finish maxing out all my languages. Side Note: my caster is proficient with all languages and at 100 on all of them.

Thanks for the tip it now works as advertised. Now if there was a way to integrate buffme with alphabuff to where i can right click on an expired buff and select one of my toons and it automatically sends back the buff, that would be the icing on the cake.
