The devs at RedGuides want to thank Ctaylor22 for his help in getting us a working compiled version of Maskoi's Mq2Melee update 7.5, with the addition of global downshitif/holyshitif support.
We have the Visual Studio source .cpp archived under another MQ2Melee revision number, but only the devs are using it right now. It still needs to be recompiled after every patch, so we are doing it ourselves for our own use at the moment.
What is that you ask?
It is the ability for our "special" compile of Mq2Melee to allow for a global condition that must be met, otherwise Mq2melee will not process its downshits/holyshits.
Actual example of mine in my server_toonName.ini file under [MQ2Melee] section.
So, as long as:
1) I am not in an instanced zone.
2) I am not in any of the zones listed (PoKnowledge(202), PoInnovation(203), Guild Lobby(344),old guild hall(345) etc.etc.etc.
3) Not moving.
4) Either standing or have a mount id.
5) And not invised.
It will process my configured downshits.
Why would you use this ???????
1) I have MQ2Melee maintaining my buffs and pet buffs, but don't want to be auto afk rebuffing in a public/populated zone like the lobby or pok.. etc
2) When not in a defined zone to prevent my downshits going off... if i gotta afk for a few minutes and don't wan't any downshits firing off, all i gotta do is invis myself... see where this is going???
3) Basicly any conceivable reason why you would not want to process your downshits unless certain global condition are met. (the possabilities are endless)
I've tried to get ctaylor22 to get interest going on the MQ2 website for this special version of Mq2melee, but that kinda fell through.
So... I'm letting the community know.. it DOES exist, but only the devs have it for now.
If the redguides community finds this interesting and worthy to be be officially placed into the vanilla compiles.... then lets start making some NOISE!
The more noise in favor of it..... the better case i can build to get lizardboy to release it to the community.
Don't bother asking for it now... I am not distributing it unless approved by Maskoi, and it will not go into the compile until we have enough support / like for this.
oh, by the way did i mention it also SUPPORTS 60 holyshits and 60 downshits now instead of the current 20 for each???????
Lets get the campaign going... if you want it in the compile... reply with: YES! I want it in the compile!

Rich (BB code):
downshitif=/if (!${Me.InInstance} && !${Select[${Zone.ID},151,152,202,203,219,344,345]} && !${Me.Moving} && (${Me.Standing} || ${Me.Mount.ID}) && !${Me.Invis})So, as long as:
