NEW Tradeskill Macros

Actually i modified the CE mac to do the Dusts.. only problem with it is that it closes the Kiln after each combine, then reopens it.. makes it slow. I am going to try the combine mac u mentioned.. I never even thought about that.. lol. If it works like i think it will that will be perfect for me.
 
Is there a macro to help with making Kaladim Constitutional ? I tried to search for it but dont see anything. Been using the shroom gank. Works great !!
 
Yes it works great :) You know whats even better? We can make 3 essences at a time with the new concentrated solvent. Might want to update that in the Mistletoe macro in the future :) Now if they will only have that work with Dust also. lol
 
Wow, that's kind of a bummer, though I feel a bit ungrateful in saying so. I was all excited about downloading your latest set of code.

My 1.5 needs just 1 tradeskill---tailoring naturally....

Still, think I'll give you a cent anyway. Thanks for the other updates, which I'm sure I will be using sometime in the next month. More plat sinks for eq...

I'll see what I can do with tailoring, ~gasp~, the old fashioned way, lol.
 
PLEASE make sure you get the NEW DL

Smith2 - little updates
SMith1 & 2 added a loc to the INI file to keep from hangups on the beam
Potter fixed advanced sub

MISTLETOE was updated last Zip .. but seems some did not get new code...

PLEASE DL updated code

ARMY
 
Does anyone happen to have a Research mac from 20-184? doing practice runes since are vendor buyable.
 
i feel dumb .... i forgot to add the part to read the locs in alchemy ...

updated and updating the zip right now

Army

Click to expand...

what part is vendor buyable?

I was looking into writing one and i thought each part needed a dropped item

army
 
Well I had a whole write up on what you could use for step by step Skill up but I scrapped the idea since thiers too much room for error with bbaz purchasing. Can get to 54 with vendor buyables then stuck with either buying every word in the baz under 5pp or something and doing combines with words+quill+parchment goes from 92 triv up to 152 trivials so some words would ultimately be wasted by this all being random combines since they would be below current skill at some point. After sifting EQtraders and Allakhazam for buyables I think beyond 152 unless you can make a mac that will watch baz, buy needed components combine and back to watching this may be a waste of time :(

SoE has made research one of the skill than cant be vendored up unless somone else here knows of combines that arent listed on the sites I use.

Thanks for looking into it Army
 
I'm having a couple problems with the macros. The Smith.mac will target someone named Lernya through the wall and crash to desktop while trying to access the Forge. When I look lower as to not target her, it won't open the forge at all.

Also in Potter.mac I can't open the pottery wheel. My character just stands on top of it and MQ keeps saying Item 'Pottery Wheel' Targeted and Facing 'Pottery Wheel' but it never opens it.
 
alchemy mac not working--my sham is at 172 skill lvl and it won't buy the items needed to make ds6, ends macro when item isn't found in inventory
 
tell me more mad .. does he buy anything?

does he move to the merchants?

what error messages?

Army
 
I know for my problem it will buy everything and I'll either crash at the Forge or I can't get the pottery wheel to even open. Is it a problem on my side or is there something I can do. Also, I crash every once in a while while doing Brewing too. Same time as Smithing, while I'm opening the container.

he moves to the merchant--target's jorlan--tries to buy bugbane, but merchant window doesn't open and macro ends saying bugbane not found. i buy the bugbane manually and restart macro--seems to move to far away from jorlan to buy comfrey--buy it manually and restart macro, moves to lita but again appears to far away from her, tries to buy plain potion vial, ends macro when vial not found, buy vial manually, restart macro--buys flamewort ok--moves to oline kinda weird path though, tries to buy accaana, macro closes when arcaana not found, but get merchant window--apppears to try to buy to fast. buy arcaana manually and restart macro, starts to run combines, distillate of skinspikes but doesn't show items used for combine in medicine bag slots, hope that helps, and thanks


p.s after combines get messages no more arcaana to sell, no more bugbane to sell, and an error message saying subroutine sellcomfrey not found, alchemy.mac@253 (main):/callsell"${component[3]}", the current macro has ended, also should add that he doesn't turn and face the merchants either except for oline.

try increasing the lag variable...see if that helps ..
Click to expand...
Still kind of a newbie at Macros, but getting better, what line should I look for to increase the lag variable? (Looking through code now, if I find it, I'll just erase this post). Thanks for your hard work and help Army.
 
Ok, for the most part I've got it all working now except for the pottery, still won't open the container, just stands on top of it. Only other thing that pops up is while trying to run Smith2, sometimes it will target an NPC named Lernya through the wall instead of targeting the forge and then EQ crashes when it goes to open the forge.
 
I hope this is my last question, but here goes - I got the Smith2 macro working, but now I'm at the stage of making the Fine Plate Breastplates and it keeps trying to select Black Fine Plate Breastplate when it gets to the forge. I checked the INI and the Macro and they all are set for Fine Plate Breastplate.

Any way to get the macro to select the correct item on the list? It looks like it only selects the item on the top of the list, which in this case is the Black Fine Plate Breastplate. It buys all the components for the regular breastplate fine though, so the problem seems to be at the forge. Also, it has this problem with the Fine Plate Helm too, but I deleted the helm from the macro to see if it would just make the BP. It was trying to select Black Fine Plate Helm. Any help with this would be appreciated.
 
go to the forege and add the right recipe to your favorites...

had a similar problem with Pottery .. and only fix is to put it in your favorites

ARMY
 
Woot! Thanks a bunch Army. I'm sorry I'm such a newb at making macro's. I'm getting better though, I promise. =) Thanks again for all your help.
 
hi i have a minor problem with teh smith.mac macro it goes to the first merchant for the banded mail and buys the sheet metal then goes tot he second for the mail sectional mold but says it isn't there and ends the macro any advise
 
Open up the Macro and find the line where it says
/call buy
Add a line before that that says
/delay 5s
That should fix your problem.

Example from my Mistletoe.mac

Rich (BB code): 
    /varset Cnt3 ${FindItemCount[=Blessed Sickle Pommel]}
    /echo ${Cnt3} Pommels on hand
    
    /delay 5s
    /call Buy "${Component[5]}" ${Math.Calc[10-${Cnt3}]}
 
Smithing
I found that if I manually click the forge when I am running towards it, it will not crash and will combine the items. I am doing Smith2 right now and it needs some manual help along the way... but is great job by army...helps me out a whole bunch..

Thnx Army

ok got that now it buys all items but crashes at forge
Click to expand...

Kinda the same idea to fix this I've found. Check out my code below form my Smith.mac and change it in yours. Should fix this crash for the most part. Mine still crashes occasionally.

Rich (BB code): 
      /nomodkey /itemtarget forge notarget 
      /face item nolook 
      /click left item 

      /delay 5s
      /doevents 
      /delay 8s ${Window[TradeskillWnd].Open} 
      /if (!${Window[TradeskillWnd].Open}) /nomodkey /click left Item 
      /delay 8s ${Window[TradeskillWnd].Open} 
      /delay 5s
      /call ChooseRecipe
      /call ClosePacks
 
Ok, the second to last thing I'm having trouble on. Mistletoe.mac looks like this in the make items part:



Rich (BB code): 
      /nomodkey /itemtarget forge notarget 
      /face item nolook 
      /delay 3s
      /click left item 

/delay 5s
/doevents 
/delay 5s ${Window[TradeskillWnd].Open} 
/if (!${Window[TradeskillWnd].Open}) /nomodkey /click left Item 
/delay 5s ${Window[TradeskillWnd].Open} 

    /varset CombItemName "Hilt"
    /varset ItemTo "Blessed Sickle Hilt"

    /call ReadIni "${CombItemName}"
     /delay 5s 
      /call ChooseRecipe
    /delay ${Math.Calc[${DelayMult}*1]}s
    
      /nomodkey /itemtarget forge notarget 
      /face item nolook
      /delay 3s 
      /click left item 
    /delay ${Math.Calc[${DelayMult}*1]}s

    /delay 5s
    /varset CombItemName "Blade"
    /varset ItemTo "Blessed Sickle Blade" 

    /call ReadIni "${CombItemName}"
    /delay 5s
      /call ChooseRecipe
    /delay ${Math.Calc[${DelayMult}*1]}s

      /nomodkey /itemtarget forge notarget 
      /face item nolook 
      /delay 3s
      /click left item 
    /delay ${Math.Calc[${DelayMult}*1]}s

    /varset CombItemName "Pommel"
    /varset ItemTo "Blessed Sickle Pommel" 

    /call ReadIni "${CombItemName}"
    /delay 5s
      /call ChooseRecipe
    /delay ${Math.Calc[${DelayMult}*1]}s

      /nomodkey /itemtarget forge notarget 
      /face item nolook
      /delay 3s 
      /click left item 
    /delay ${Math.Calc[${DelayMult}*1]}s

    /varset CombItemName "Sickle"
    /varset ItemTo "Mistletoe Cutting Sickle" 

    /call ReadIni "${CombItemName}"
    /delay 5s
      /call ChooseRecipe
      /call ClosePacks
    /delay ${Math.Calc[${DelayMult}*1]}s

    /echo Moving to Uiyaniv
    /call Movement 44 44 0
    /call Movement 28 35 33

    /echo Round ${runs} --- WOOO HOOO
    /next runs

    /echo Moving to Banker for Bag Swap
    /call Movement 36 40 38
    /echo Swapping first two bags in inventory with 
    /echo First two bags in bank
    /call Bagswap


    /echo Moving to Uiyaniv
    /call Movement 41 43 43
    /call Movement 34 35 0

    /return

Here's my problem: I can't get the forge to open after the first combine. I added the /delay 3s before clicking to see if that's the problem, but it did nothing but slow down my CTDs. Basically it opens the forge for the first combine, closes the forge, retargets, and won't reopen the forge then tries to run the combine then I CTD. Any advicd there Army (or anyone else with more programming knowledge than me)?

Also, Potter.mac still won't even open the Kiln. Any suggestions for this? Posted earlier to no avail. My character basically stands on top of it and won't open it.
 
Potter.mac, same problem as above. Won't open pottery wheel. if I manually click pottery wheel, macro completes just fine.
 
Alchemy mac been fixed yet? have previously posted the various problems i have with it.

did you look at the code?

did you look at the post?

it has an updated date and in the top of the macro has changes

so .... has it been fixed yet?

Sorry if this has already been posted - I had to make sure I put walk on the toon that was using the pottery otherwise he missed the turns and wasnt able to get where he was going

Yes i did look at the code etc., and it was updated on april 26th, and my problems were encountered on the 29th, when testing macro as you requested, i made a specific post about what was happening, also as you requested, so again my question is, has the alchemy mac been fixed yet?

ok first.. this tells me you do not have the modded code.

the sell error was fixed back on the 27th ... i was missing a space

so DL the zip again ...

also i fixed a ingredient error... measure of wolf blood is a measure of wold blood

LAstly in the zip not sure how long ago ... i added a delay to the buy function to allow for slow merchant windows.

I increased it to *2 just now ... and re uploaded zip ....

so ...... re DL .. and let me know whats wrong still

Is there a guide somewhere to smithing? Like how to max it? Need a life after 188 guide.. lol
 
If you don't want to make the Mistletoe Cutting Sickles right away, then i'd suggest looking at EQTraders.com for skillup paths.

Shadowscream stuff will take you to 267. Pretty much need to earn it the hard way via killing mobs for drops (no trade recipe items), but the tools available with MQ make it reasonable and the mobs are very low-level. You can hunter.mac the shadows in Twilight as well as the mobs in Hollowshade; just isn't automated.

The price is right, especially compared to Mistle sickles, so if you're at a level that makes killing low-level greenies a snap, march on. Warning: it is a time sink...but you'd spend the time elsewhere farming/earning plat to pay for the Mistletoe stuff and this path is no-risk for a reasonable level toon.
