MQ2Shaman

Plugin - MQ2Shaman 3.1.52471.11

Hi I have been using this for about a week now and have found that my 96 Shaman does not cast haste even when the has the usehaste box checked or if I set it to on using the /shm usehaste on command.
 
I de-leveled my shaman from an 85 to 65. The plugin is very upset that I'm not 75 so it can use the AA: Lupine Spirit on me. Is there a command that I could use to either replace it with the appropriate spell, get it to recognize the right level spell or, saving that, turn off the spam message?
 
If EQ says the item is ready, we trust it and try to use it.
does EQ=Macroquest? The /echo ${Me.ItemReady[Blessed Spiritstaff of the Heyokah]} returns TRUE. The item doesn’t have the red cool down timer coloration, but is not clickable.

dunno if it is EQ, MQ2 or plugin problem, But if retries = 4 then next i ?
 
This is why this plugin is in an open beta, so things can get brought to attention of Chat and Sic. Fixes are not going to get pushed every time they fix something. Be patient. If you can't, then wait for the paid release, where it's more polished.

So is there a reason why my shaman wouldnt be slowing? i have use slow toggled on but no slow is happening. i tried changing from heal and to hybrid and still nothing. is this a know bug or something? other then that works great. using call and rez perfectly. using heal aa perfect and burning swell ( i wrote up a bard mq2events to fire epic/Fierce eye so they stay in sync) . all in all good. just cant get the shaman to slow.

Yup, as repeatedly mentioned you need to wait on a vv live rebuild.
 
Hey man, had a oddity happen today when runing my shm. he kept casting the aa speed buff (most likely cause one member of the group had SOE and refused to drop it) but shm would continualy cast the aa speed and not do anything else, finally dispelled my friend till the SOE was gone, shm buffed and we went on without further issue
 
Redbot updated MQ2Shaman with a new update entry:

10/26/2020

- The XML File is now correctly being added and should load in game without having to load another cwtn plugin.
- UseMaloAOE and UseSlowAoE options were added as seperate entries. They are not connected to UseAoE.
- UseFocus option added.
- UseGrowth option added.
-- Will memorize a second GiftDD if heal/hybrid and usegrowth is off
- UseRegen option added.
- Added a timer to slow down the Canni Spell Check
-- So we don't get stuck...

Read the rest of this update entry...
 
So, I did the update via Redguide. ALL of my plugins, even the ones I bought, now just say checkbox, input box etc...I am going to camp everyone out, and try and run redguide again, and see if I can do a 2nd update?

Ok, I did a full update again logged in my SK, and same results. I Loaded the Default UI (I use Krome), and when default loaded the options came up correctly in the display. Also, even though the display does not seem to work, it is still casting and doing what it is supposed to.

I tried to go BACK to Krome UI, and got some crash errors and the toon locked up. Restarted, did it again, and this time it did go back to Krome, but the options all went to generic checkboxes again. I am going to try and see if there is an update to Krome UI. I am thinking that has to be where the issue is?


Oh, here is the error I get trying to change UI now.

@BrianDumm Need to delete the MQUI_BerzerkerWnd.xml from your everquest directory. Let it load from the Macroquest directory. That way if there is an update then you won't face this same issue.

From the looks of it, you're using a custom UI. So you probably put it in that directory. When it goes to load the XML file it checks the everquest directory first for the file. Since it finds one (the old one) it loads that one and never checks the Macroquest Directory. So if you delete it from there, it will find the one in the Macroquest directory (The up to date one).

worked perfectly! thank you as always.
 
I used this on my raid last night and noticed 2 issues. You may know about these already, but just in case I'll leave them here: First, I un-checked UsePet as I specifically did *not* want a pet during that particular event, plugin repeatedly summoned a new pet after multiple times dismissing the pet manually. Second, at level 115 with all spells and confirmation that nothing is missing, it tries to buff the pet with level 60s era buffs (Ferine Avatar, Spirit of Vehemence, Spirit of might, mortal deftness) instead of current era Unity.

Thanks - the usepet check in the pet summon thing was an unknown oversight by me - so thanks for that. the low lvl buffing thing is tough - we check all other buffs first - but group buffs get weird with the way we're doing things (particularly with pets --- but I think i have a solution for personal pets that should eliminate that issue) - so some things we skip checking until after the full group is checked, and then once we get to that point some low lvl buffs would then get checked, and if they stack, they would get added --- it *should* be near impossible for it to happen - but when i get a chance i'll see if i can recreate it and ensure it doesn't happen.

Thanks for the infos

I’ve seen it cast it first and then buff over it with the combo buffs. I just blocked it on all toons and pets. Seem to fix it.
 
I just want to tell you guys, you're doing a fantastic job! I have modified my group so the whole group is now using these plugins instead of kiss. (had to remove mage from group and sub out)
I'm looking forward to see what else you guys make next!
 
Guess u missed all the replies about updates.
@Sic I’m well aware of the fact that there are updates / fixes in the pipeline. Please don’t interpret my comment as a dig on the plugin or the work that’s gone into it. my post was more of a surprise than anything. Thank you for all the work on these and the other CWTN plugins

I just wanted to take this opportunity to mention that your name makes me LOL every time I read it.
That is all.

Hi there, Is there an ETA on release of this ? I'm hoping before CoV releases. If its already available please describe where as I don't see the purchase button and I am itching to throw my monies at you guys. keep up the good work and the great addons
 
Noticed earlier that I had the UsePet unmarked it was still summoning one. Not a huge deal, as I usually use a pet, but testing things out =)

If you turn on Kissassist onto your MA and have XTarBuff and XtarHeal on. The shaman can and will Buff, heal, slow, dps all from outside the group. SOMEONE BOOST THIS

I strongly discourage running another automation macro on top of the plugin - if you have anything that wants to memorize spells or do other stuff - you can and will have conflicting behavior and it becomes impossible to support.

You do not need kiss to do out of xtarget healing or xtarget buffing.

if you want to to automatically damage stuff without otherwise getting in combat, then yes - you would need something external to get you to engage enough to get mobs on xtarget so then you do the normal stuff you would as the cwtn plugins do not currently have out of group assisting other than raid assisting. Eventually we will get some out-of-group assisting functionality, maybe/probably/most-likely. If you DO do this, you sould strongly consider having it be a purely blank INI with usemelee=0 (the cwtn plugins unload noauto mq2melee)
 
I came here to ask a bunch on questions I had, but I read all the replies first. Now I have no questions and I’m in the loop again, funny how that works. Thanks for all you guys do. Chat and Sic are “Making Norrath Great Again”!
 
Hey,

Have been playing with the program and it has been running well. I know you guys are still in development so you may know this but I didnt see anything for Listlessness in the discussion here so thought I would bring it to your attention. I am getting some funny spam that reads "CWTN messed up. Need to let him know he forgot to assign a target to Listlessness Rk III" I did get a chuckle when I discovered this Easter egg. If you already are aware of this situation please disregard and thanks for the plugin and the chuckle.

yeah that is our debug code - this actually means your target changed between thinking about casting and actually casting (usually a manual target clear). We didn't actually intend on leaving the code in as we didn't actually forget to assign a target, it is just failing its validation code because your target changed.

You shouldn't see that any more after next update.

Thanks for the info @AnotherJohn appreciate it <3

P.S. always enjoy your avatar dude (that isn't Rondo is it? what is it from?)

I was already running with a blank ini just to get slows on mobs. mass pulling as sk is fun stuff.
