you can byos if you don't like the loadout, but yes, we do use it

We pair it with Syllable of Fire or Gift of Fire, but obviously we check eth fire 1 first - unless you were in our twincast check, it is also in there without a syllable/gift check

i'll take a look in some actual fights when i get a second, but i just loaded this shitter hwizard up real fast to check this for you)

my bet is, it is just finding better stuff to do before, which makes sense

I want to avoid BYOS if it can be helped. Just ran a full raid without it casting, so I'd have to agree that it's finding better things to cast
 
Hey Sic/CWTN, Recently moved up an expansion (VoA, level 95) so I've got a couple more fixes =D

Sarith portal/tl/gate doesn't show up in the search (it finds pillars of alra)
and "Ethereal Ice" is pointing to a claw that doesn't proc any of the recourses (we don't have one at level 95 yet), should be pointed at Ethereal Frost.

Thanks as always =D

I can post screens if you need or anything but I've pestered you about these at other levels lol. Let me know if you need them/any other info.

Also out of curiosity, is it possible to maybe have the ability to customize those spell categories? (IE in this case swapping the ethereal frost, or at certain points where we want to use a lower level for some reason) Much of it can be done with BYOS but if its a spell not already categorized there it seems to not cast. No idea how difficult that would be (or how much extra work it would give you answering questions when people started messing with it =D)

I'll take a peak at that stuff tomorrow. Just about every spell in spell group I go through manually, because you can't trust eq, but something might have slipped in.

No.

Frankly, why would you upgrade a spell knowing you specifically don't want to use it.

As the byos stuff says, by and large we only cast the things we say we do, and there are a bunch of reasons why.
 
I'm probably missing something obvious but I haven't been able to figure this one out. I click the UseBifold option and the plugin shows the check mark and everything works as expected. If I camp or unload the plugin when I start it back up the bifold option is unchecked. I just tested it with it unchecked and it is still using the bifold during burn. I also never got the /wiz portal to work. These are not big problems or worries just makes me wonder what I'm doing wrong lol.
 
Usually to save the settings you would have go manually type /wiz usebifold on. That will keep it checked, if that's an option.

Check the clicky tab in special. I believe me and sic misunderstood each other at one point and he was adding it to the special tab (which you can use the activate/deactivate option for) and I had added it to the old system of usebifold. He removed the settings in the wizard itself and it appears we missed the option in the window.
 
I was under the impression that slash functionality and check toggle functionality had swapped with the cwtn UI revamp recently?

answered while I was typing this

Yep the bifold was added under clicky tab special special. Thank you.
 
Just got back into EQ after years not playing and just trying out MQ2Wizard and having a problem. My Wizard keeps trying to mem Aegis of Crystalwing in slot 12 then replaces it Twincast. Just stuck in a loop.

can you show me the screensnip of mq2wizard memorizing aegis of crystalwing in slot 12? because unless you byos-custom'd that, we don't do that.

sounds like you have some conflicting automation

Thanks for the reply Sic. I camped her and she is not doing it now. I may have had Kissassist loaded just looked at my profile and Aegis of Crystalwing is configured for slot 12.
 
Curious, i just leveled my wizard to 75 and this wants to only cast the lvl 65 spell Shock of Magic, if i BYOS it will only cast the spell in slot 3. Ive tried changing between Fire and Blend, but get the same results either way.

Please see >>> Getting Started with CWTN plugins! (Movement, UI Window, Clickies, Pulling, ETC) Check Here First! <<<
what spells are you expecting it to cast but is not casting?

saying that it only casts shock of magic isn't as helpful as saying what you're expecting to happen but is not.

byos only casts slot 3? casting doesn't actually care about what slot - so what spell are YOU putting in slot to to byos cast?

do you have castfire/castice/castmagic?

please check the sticky that i shared at the top here and check out the "how to ask for help" as there are many options and configurations and such

75 without useaoe should be something like

Wildmagic Strike in slot: 1
Ethereal Conflagration in slot: 2
Shock of Magic in slot: 3
Flashfires in slot: 4
Cloudburst Strike in slot: 8

I'd suspect it has something to do with the recast, but i'll take a look and double check
 
Well, it only cast shock of magic, i updated my spells for 75 and it mems what you say, but again it will only cast shock of magic, no other spells except for harvest if requirements for harvest are met. I have the 3 cast set to be on, fire, ice and magic.

When i turn on BYOScustom and put another spell into slot 3, i think i tried white fire in there and it only cast that. I turned up the background FPS to 30 because i did see there was mention of doing that in the FAQ.

Not sure if i have a conflicting plugin running, ill have to check that, but it is a brand new character i made just on saturday.

k, don't worry about it. i'll take a look :)

edit: yes, the shock thing is a recast - it gets casted and then is available to recast as soon as it is used. there are some other spells that aren't working if you were to un-memorize it or turn off magic usage which i'll update/fix.

in this level range there are many spells that are going to be immediately reusable, so you'll want to utilize the castmagic/castice/castfire options to help you pick which thing is going to best meet your current needs (i like fire)

Is it possible to edit the spells that are on the active spell list and could we weight them so that the plugin would continue using the best dps algorithm but 1) only use spells on the spell list - this gives us flexibility on fire cold magic combos instead of what you have pre-defined for fire and blend with out binary go for CastFire, CastMagic, CastIce switches 2) always cast available based on the weights assigned and of course 3) availability refresh timers.
I know we have byos and BYOScustom and that works pretty well but it limits what the plugin will load itself which is of course by design.

Changing the resource to paid in anticipation of the upcoming patch on the 15th. You do not need the purchase it until the 15th unless you don't already have it and want it. If you do already have it from the free beta then you can continue to use the existing copy you have until EQ patches (and subsequently MQ) which is expected on the 15th.

Thank you to those that tried it!
Thanks to those that reported stuff that didn't work as intended!
Thanks to those of you that made suggestions!

There is still time to enter the giveaway if you haven't yet!

Getting a DLL error on this plugin since patch. Confirmed that it is paid for and updated.
Click to expand...
you only downloaded it after posting, so i'd imagine you didn't have the updated plugin

> Check this link <
If you have already checked the RG Launcher Plugin Tab then read the following:
- The RG Launcher is unable to *delete* old files.
-- This means you will get an error box if you don't have a current plugin that matches the mq build
-- your options are:
--- a: purchase a license
--- b: delete the old .dll in your plugin folder, and/or
--- c: change your macroquest.ini to MQ2PluginName=0 under [Plugins]

That is correct. It hit me as I hit post so tried to delete it before it triggered to you all. :)

I was on the free version still. Got that cleared up and all good now.
 
Me again. Bought the ToL spell Shadow Harvest and scribed it on a wiz I'm leveling. Wiz is 123, plugin is paid for and up-to-date.

Despite having "Use Gambit" checked, the plugin cannot decide where to put Shadow Harvest / Instant Magic and will now swap them back and forth between slot 4 and slot 8 when out of combat in xp areas. I've been running a lot of Restless Assault lately, this screenshot is from MQ2Grind-driven Restless Assault.

It's not a huge pain - the plugin will still go for Gambit if it gets a Syllable of Refreshment when Shadow Harvest is memorized and instant magic makes up very little of my overall damage. It's just a near constant flip flop that I can't imagine is intentional.

That's got to be some kind of BYOS thing - are you trying to force it to mem shadow harvest for some reason? if you want to use harvest instead then uncheck gambit and the plugin will use harvest. If your wanting to use gambit then don't try to force the harvest.

Nope. I've been using it pretty much as-is since it dropped. The only things I do besides what comes stock are Use Gambit and Use Melee, been a Wiz main for years and years now so I've got a series of KA files that I can use if I want to be super specific with spell choice and optimization. There isn't much reason to use standard harvest when Gambits are an option

Did you accidently have ka or a conflicting automation running? It shows in the plugin output that you're memorizing cloudburst in slot 4 but never shows it's trying to put harvest in slot 4. Only trying to put it 8.
Which means the plugin isn't trying to put harvest in 4, something else is.

I do see it try to put cloudburst in 4 one time. Not sure if that was from a setting change or anything. Just want to rule it out.
