Slipgear macro

OK guys...having a problem with this macro. I copyed/pasted it to notepad, saved it as Slipgear.mac to my /Release/Macro folder. Started EQ, made the hotkeys for the various zones, zoned into Undershore, and tried to start the macro, all it does is say "the current macro has ended", and does nothing. Any suggeations?
 
try removing the notes part

first 4 lines or so

also remember you need to be rogue and have all the tasks from slipgear first
 
Also it needs the zone in "You have entered Undershore" to trigger that zones actions.

You need to do this for each zone if you start the macro AFTER you zone in.
 
ok this is how i do it

i go to slipgear .. get ALL the tasks

start macro .. then zone into undershore.. BAM .. it does it

then just hit each zone.. macro running..

of course you hit HIDE and sneak

then finally hit CC and it pops you around there...

double check all the flags went off..

and then go back and hail SG

all done 8-)
 
Thanks guys...I was in the zone and then starting the macro and then hitting the hotkey. I zoned out of Undershore to retalk to Slipgear (with the macro running) and then rezoned back in to try again, and bam...it started working. Got the aug completed in just a few minutes. Thanks again!
 
Finally finished my slipgear gem, thanks to you Boobie :) I am not a big user of macros, but this one is nice! I had some trouble starting the macro in Illasin... it just didn't want to play ball with me... this has actually inspired me to look at making some of my own macros and contributing a bit more to the boards :)
 
Glad you all are enjoying, and making good use of it :D. I havent updated it since the release of the expansion. So it may need a little bit of tweaking on a per char basis. Also, don't have levitate on when you run it, or you will miss a couple key locs ;).

I ran this on 4 of my toons only problem I had was its a huge fall in POK when ya die in Illsalin and are bound in POK and it sends you to bind then continues warping ya ..... had like 3 corpses ....
 
Yes if you die make sure to have /endmac on a hot key or /endmac on the mq2 window so you can push the enter key RQ. I got lucky and had /endmac hotkey already made from a previous mac. You could also put a sub event in the macro That would check the #*#You have been slain by#*# ,or better yet #*#You have entered the Plane of Knowledge#*# (or wherever you are bound) event. It would have to check after every warp i think otherwise the macro would continue to run if you die finishing out the sub.

|*  1st attempt at a Macro...  Hopefully when I am done, this will do at least most of the slipgear quest for you. To make this work, you will need to hail slipgear and follow text and get all the missions. Then make a hotkey < /echo You have entered Corathus Creep > Also, i do not yet know how to /zone, so you will have to make the zones yourself.
Easy as pie for non-invis classes, just be a rogue shroud, hide/sneak. *|

I dont know if its that simple but i added the event pok and added the Sub pok to it. It should in theory trigger when you zone into pok. But i still think it needs to call on the sub between warps. One of these top notch coders could prolly shed some light on it.
 
I have never had that happen on dying, but will add the event in just a min. Also, you may want to consider using the [*code*] [*/code*] tags (without the *)
 
Oh is that hor you get that cool window sorry gonna test it

his is a test of the newb macro testing system

Ya you would have luaghed your ass off watching me ... was real tired and a lil slow not to mention 4 boxing .....

Died in Ilsalin .... kinda saw it out of the corner of my eye .... looked at screen with toon on it ... was zoning into pok (said oh well).... then noticed I was zoning again ... didn't think much of it ... then noticed I was in POK again .... hmmmm .... zoned again ... rinse and repeat had 7 corpses .... told ya I was tired ...... finally caught endmac and got it to stop ... damn glad I have a 70 cleric

Oh, edited mac in case of death and weird happenings ;)


Wow simple answers are often the best ... great fix to mac
 
Had the same problem with living isles, I'll try it again when I get home later.
 
I had 3 not work... Here's working locs for them. Basically just moved around a smidge.
Undershore 3rd Loc: -908 630 -15
Stoneroot 4th loc: 188 -1088 -67
Hive 5th loc: -250 1360 15
 
I couldn't get Living Isles to update withthe macro either. I just got all the others then ended the macro and went back to that /loc and moved around until I found it.
 
What I do to get all points to work is if one misses the next time it runs through I move the toon a little and it ALWAYS catches then.... Rogue shrouds work great .. hide and sneak

I had all of the zoneline waypoints saved for DoDH, but accidentally overwrote them
Here are a couple I managed to salvage:

[WestKorlach]
HiveZL=-1239.79 -730.01 255.63 205.70:

[EastKorlach]
IllsalinZL=-1545.44 654.63 6.85 123.42:
StonerootZL=195.32 759.95 -17.08 4.13:



Can someone tell me what the 4th coordinate is for?
 
I'm bored and it's late and thought I would try this with just the rog shroud and locs from Mac. Just gonna hoof it around to each loc for fun since no MQ yet and I just now finally reopped my accounts lol. Wish I had resubscribed when I got DoD for christmas lol could have used that nice gear from Sabo 8( oh well hopefully you all will come up with nifty stuff for PoR (still need to buy it).

Anyways just wanted to say thanks for all the great work here. Used redguides over a year ago mainly just for the vxed mac and to be able to hydra my bard with my Druid main. Even after I let accounts expire do to new baby and stuff I still enjoyed just reading all the stuff you guys post and seeing what makes a mac tick.

Thanks again and wish my lil ugly rog luck :D
 
Update on the mission. In the Hive part, the new loc for the Reanimation Chamber is -597, 680, -23. Update your macros as needed.
 
i am new at all this can someone please tell me how to add this to my macros so i can use it?
 
DrmChld said:
Living Isles updated at 198, -1101, -21.39

Really nice info, but it would help to know what zone and which location # in that zone in reference to the macro.

Otherwise this is just so much spam...
 
sorry silly question but how do i actually start this going in each zone plz, any know the command
 
One of the locs for the hive keeps missing and an orc conscript keeps killing me same place every time, im trying to get to the reanimation chanber any one know the loc pls, i dont understand why it doesnt work.
 
I ran this while levitated, with all the updates given in this thread except for the Living Isles one, (since I couldn't figure out which loc to update).

Didn't need it. Every single event popped on every location. No problems. Well, I had one mob see invis and killed me, but the macro worked great. Gratz to those who updated the locs for others...

One wierdness is that the macro never once fired upon zone in. I had to ;t the zone in message to my alt every time, at which point it kicked off. Totally mystifyed why that is so. But the good news is that it gave me a chance to check zone for GMs, nearby PCs, and large parties. Got lucky and there were very few folks around, usually none.

Secondly, I added a /cast 4 just prior to each set of warps, with invis being spell gem #4. This ensured a fresh invis just prior to each set.

Good luck to all...
 
For the hive
/delay 15s
/warp loc -1261.73, 498.71, 47.53
/delay 5s
/warp loc -418.87, 482.43, 47.46
/delay 5s
This is the right loc for Re-animation Chamber -596, 679, -23
/delay 5s
/warp loc 173.00, 650.00, 219.00
/delay 5s
/warp loc -37.73, 1183.32, 254.42
/delay 5s
/warp loc -250, 1360, 15
/delay 5s

And if your a fd class just warp FDed :)
 
"Wait for the hotkey"

":waitforit"

what exactly is this waiting for? Am I supposed to make a hotkey?
This is my first macro try =)
--------------------------------------

doh! I get it. It is waiting for me to /echo the zoning message!

Well first time trying so I figured this would be a easy one to get started. When I zone into Undershore it starts to text but I get
"DoCommand -couldn't parse /warp loc xxxxxxxxx the warp locations"
and nothing happens.

Does this still work? Any suggestions for this noob?

"DoCommand - couldn't parse" blah blah blah means that MQ couldn't figure out what to do with that command. ie...you don't have your warp plugin loaded.

/load mq2rwarp

that should fix you up.
 
Has anyone done this all in on session? I am new and don't wanna get the boot on my first Macroquest.
