Release Old Man McKenzie - Group Macro Beta 1.15

[burdsjm]

I did these 2 weeks ago to unlock the rez stick at vendor, my experience is that the mesh repo does not have this merged. As at the lava every time you would get stuck. I would just pause manually move the guys across and then un-pause. (but I only needed to do each mission/raid once for the unlock)

IMO you should fix the mesh for me.

 

[blahblahblah]

I ran this a few times yesterday, only on a full wipe, the zone has repopulated once I zone back in... ?
Im figuring it out as I go...

 

[insane_pawn]

Gave it a whirl -- not sure what happened. This is the output for the group naggy:



Died, mission partially completed, and macro ended. Group has Main Assist, Main Tank, Puller roles set.

 

[boboss111]

Ok this Macro is the bomb diggity yo.... At 1st naggy did give issues but kept eyes on it an looked up in the lava they ran right out an was on the way finished 1st task easy. 2nd task easy an guess what 3rd task easy as pie. If you think you can do this by ya self more power to you but yeah def 100% love it my self.

Not sure if this helps or not Pascualito, the mac has not had an update in 5 years. So the file you have might still be the same thing. Its a good mac for two of the missions and a little 'hope it works' for the Sol one. The raids work IF you plan it out and have to be actively playing, the raids were never ones that ran automated.

Just used it a few weeks ago, and it ran fine.

I would get a high-level mage to cast pet toys on you and leave them on your cursor when you zone in so you can get your pets some good toys.

 

[pascualito]

thanks guys for the tips, i got only the group mac One not the raid one. Tried again Nagafens Lair, killed all perfectly but Nagafen... I been stucked by lava again, i will try /mqp next time i cross the lava, then /mqp again ... hope it works

I wish I had continued.. I started on a Lua version but at that time did not know enough to get it going. Maybe I'll look back into it. I loved TempusX's work on this. Here is the raid one, hopefully it helps.

 

[pascualito]

Thanks a lot for your time :-) been long time after that rezz staff for my sham, hope i can obtain it.
THANKS

Good luck to you bud! I think its a fun goal and useful tool to get. I really enjoyed getting it, and once I knew the path was easier for more guys to have it. Gave me good enjoyment of the game as a goal to achieve. I so wish EMU could get the few expansion upgrades to have those available too. Show off a picture of your shiny rez stick once you get it!

Call me dumb, but how does one do this?

 

[durango773]

Have a mage cast grant armor/weps, it appears on your cursor, you then LEAVE IT on the cursor and zone in.. you will be shrouded down, with the sweet ass gear pack still on the cursor.

Please feel free to do so and/or use any of the work I did to make it better.

I'm currently on hiatus and not playing Everquest, so Im not able to fix/test/support this. Unfortunately.

A Lua version that handles some of the update steps more intelligently was planned, but i lacked knowledge of structures to support what I wanted to do. Toons that got 'lost' would have to stop at each task waypoint until they caught up, but an intelligent setup would be referencing an array of what is completed vs what isn't, and what is next, then catching up that way, effectively skipping over waypoints already completed. But i wasn't sure how to make that go.

Plus the Solusek lava thing was a consistent nightmare to work around. Even when it "worked" in testing, it didn't work as reliably on release. Forcing an advpath may work, but it means users mucking around in the advpath file (i think) and that's prone to accidents and mistakes inciting other problems.

I wish I could show you the picture, but I still haven't been able to complete the RAID, because this raid macro not works for me , or i dont know how to make it success, the king kill my group all times (perhaps 6 mages is not enough) im working on use kissassist, using same INI for 6 GOLD mages and run manually the path, but died all times, and restart sucks. Perhaps I will try to add 6 silver mages then 6 silver+6 gold hope can achieve. LOL
Call me failure...

It is possible with 6, but hard to get the timing, and may need some luck, with 12 you will find it a LOT easier. You said King, are you doing Lord Nagafen or Lady Vox? DOn;t worry that some are Gold and some silver or free, you are inside a Monster Mission, your guys are all equal in there, no extra bonus or AAs. Get your hotkeys setup for good raid commands, it should be not difficult with 12.

Thanks for the encouragement, I will soon try it again with 12, I hope to have better luck hehe.

I have used this strategy to win.

I've had great success with this mac in the past, but my group just got lost while pathing in the lava on the way to Efreeti Lord. I going to try it again and see what happens.

 

[burdsjm]

I'd /mqp it when it gets there and manually get the toons across the lava.

Check out the last macro posted here Post in thread 'Old Man McKenzie - Group Macro Beta' https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/old-man-mckenzie-group-macro-beta.74135/post-586249 it works perfectly on all 3 group missions.

 

[Onimal]

The new uploaded macro for groups works great.

The Raid macro kept failing during class select, i added 15 seconds to the macro and manually picked the classes and it wworked great. It didn't end in fire.

Naggy was successful, great strategy. Trying Vox Tomorrow. With Naggy, it is WAY easier if you kill Magus with the 2 giants in naggy's room. If you split the 2 giants away from Magus+Naggy, the only real way to split magus and naggy usually results in the death of the necro.

Vox was straight forward. instructions worked well.
I did find the level 5 named Terror near vox was almost impossible to kill with a party of 6. It would wipe me even with the best setup. I decided to just cancel the raid and restart if that mob was up.

The other option if you didn't want to use the cubby in the South East is to use the north east zig/zagg cubby. There's a terror in there, however you can jump in there and kill it quite quickly. Vox won't come in and if the pets are back enough don't get hit with AE. Seems a bit easier.

 

[avogadro101]

Modified the macro to /mqp and manually moved. It continued perfectly. lGuk and DGuk were flawless.

FYI, to do this, search for "lava" and look for the sequence in the macro that talks about how navigating over lava is hard...and add a /mqp in there.
