Problem - Where can we disable spamming of Origin? (1 Viewer)

Could you give a clear proof that the long-time stuck gem bug has been really really fixed this time please? Since DPG screwed this too many times...
Since proving a negative is impossible, no
 
Hey all, since a couple patches ago, all of my characters are randomly casting origin, but I've checked all their ini's and there are no origin lines in them...any ideas?

you will need to find the "Sub CheckStuckGems" in kissassist.mac and add a /return afterwards

Code:
Sub CheckStuckGems
    /return
 
As for the fixed portion, they've claimed to fix it multiple times over various patches. If anyone has perfect repro or can show us a case of them being stuck, then we can decide if their fix worked.

EQ Forums may be of some help as well for research.
 
I use what Sic posted.
If toons don’t turn up on the parse , then I go and unstuck them manually.

Forever hopeful Everquest fixes their QuickTime and clicky ready false positive stuff

Also, the stuck gems thing still can happen, but its much more rare now. Or, I just get a bard in my group much more rarely...... whomp whomp....
 
don't know what is causing it have tried a few ini.

everytime i use group coth on my mage it atemps to(and sometime gose off) to cast orgin aa as well.
 
I believe you are asking about KissAssist. If KA thinks there is a stuck spell gem, it attempts to correct it by clicking Origin. If you cast a long-duration spell like Call of the Heroes, it thinks there is a stuck spell gem and tries to cancel it. The "fix" is to open up KA in your favorite editor and then within Sub CheckStuckGems, go to line 13746 and insert /return. Now your casts wont get cancelled.
 
Casting coth in itself is not the issue, it is trying to cast it outside of kiss and not pausing the macro that is the problem.
 
Weirdness is also happening with the Zueria Slide, I just ran fight fire and completed it healerless, because the healer ported to skyfire..
 
I'm fairly new to KA, but this is a new problem I haven't had before. When I manually go to press a spell gem on the spell bar, I get "You begin casting Origin". Then a "Your ability failed. Timer has been reset." Is this a known bug and is there a fix?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I merged your thread into the existing origin thread.

the tl;dr is that kiss uses origin for "stuck spell gem detection"

per CTaylor:
I added a flag for this, not sure when I added it, so check your ini and look for the CheckStuckGem entry.

so you should have a CheckStuckGem entry in your INI and you can change that to =0

or - if that never got added

you will want to edit out the sub in your kissassist as suggested in a few of the posts
Code:
Sub CheckStuckGems
    /return

Can we just add this to the character ini file ? as its not in the generated ini files. under General ?

Or just replace the existing CheckStuckGem sub with an empty one ?

Code:
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
| SUB: Check and Fix Stuck Gems
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Sub CheckStuckGems
        /if (${Window[CastingWindow].Open} || ${Me.Invis}) /return
        /if (${Me.AltAbilityReady[origin]}) {
            /alt act ${Me.AltAbility[origin].ID}
            /delay 50 ${Window[CastingWindow].Open}
            /stopcast
            /delay 10
        } else {
            /echo Origin AA not ready.
            /delay 20
        }
    /return

Untill now it never have fired, but I get stomach ache each time this happens :f5:

Playing on Rizlona, and it does have a fairly large ping of avg 190 (Scandinavia) compared to other servers
 
Why hasn't this just been removed from KA entirely? Or defaulted to off and requires someone to enable it if they want to use it?

Because back when this use to be a bigger issue, we had to add the code to check for stuck gems and do something to correct the issue. The fix has always been to cast an AA and then cancel casting. Everyone gets the Origin AA early on, so we decided to se that AA. There was a flag added to allow you to turn on and off this functionality. CheckStuckGem=0 should turn this off. I will add this to my list of things to revisit when when making future changes.
 
Recently I have had problems with this, and they do actually manage to get it off a lot of times causing a few wipes! The only cure I have found so far is to re-install MQ2 every day or so, that seems to have fixed it ....for now?
Are you by any chance using the "CastingInterruptOn=0" Because that's suppose to prevent it from interrupting spells it casts, im not sure if that would also stop it from interrupting origin though.
 
Problem - Where can we disable spamming of Origin?
