That's not the fix. It will screw up and try to cast the AA which is why its in there under AltAbility.

Twincast works fine. take out the |Me.
Rich (BB code): 
DPS1=Twincast|99

Also these can't be the same or you will screw up weave the AA has to come AFTER the spell. They can't both be at 96 because the it casts during global spell cooldown.

Hmm, I based my twincast dps entry from here http://www.redguides.com/community/...setup-Easy-AFK?p=239215&viewfull=1#post239215 :)
Does it cast differently if not |me?

Removing |me does not seem to work

I debugged down to kiss doing somethign like this
/call MQ2Cast "Twincast" gem8 3s -maxtries|2
which reports success but does nothing

And I used this simple script to test/verify my change to MQ2Cast_Spell_Routines.inc

#turbo 30
#include mq2cast_spell_routines.inc

Sub Main
    /call MQ2Cast "Twincast" gem6 3s -maxtries|2
/return

Thanks for the weave advice.

The |me is fine I was thinking of something else I am working on with the imporoved twincast AA or whatever it is.

I know for a fact my mage was casting it. Do you have it perma mem'd? it has like a 5 min gem refresh on it.

I will test it on my wizzies tonight.

You have an old spell routines then. We had that patch in there awhile ago sorry for the confusion. I see you were adding the ${spellName.NotEqual[twincast]})

If you look at the MQ2Cast_Spell_Routines.inc in the compile zip it should be in there.

I'm really confused then, because the first thing I did before changing MQ2Cast_Spell_Routines.inc was to make sure I had the most recent version...

is this the latest?
MQ2Cast_Spell_Routines.inc v3.03

${Me.AltAbility[Twincast].Type} returns 3

Probably be a bit before I can look into this again. At this point I'd rather just get rk 3 lol

Yes ${Me.AltAbility[Twincast].Type} is a Class AA or Tab 3 that is correct.
The ${Me.AltAbility[${spellName}].Type}!=5 is to make sure it not confusing any spells with the new focus aa's in tab 5
${spellName.NotEqual[twincast]} is to make sure it doesn't confuse twincast with the AA

What is the most recent version of spell routines?

I bet 100 redcent this is a bug in the July1 Vanilla Compile package of KissAssist/MQ2Cast_Spell_Routines. I installed a fresh redguides MQ2 install, with this ini, and still had the problem. It echos "casting Twincast", but it is never cast.

I had the thought that the both the twincast check and the .Type !=5 check could be replaced with a "${Me.AltAbility[${spellName}].Spell.ID}" check. Spell will be null for both tab 5 and non-castable spells. Cleaner solution I think.

But ultimately my problem here seems to be some versioning issue with MQ2Cast_Spell_Routines? The version I'm getting from the latest vanilla compile doesn't seem to handle twincast correctly.

What is the update on this.....

Did you manually copy the MQ2Cast_Routines.ini from the most current vanilla release (release/macros/MQ2Cast_Routines.ini) to your /macros folder????

This should have resolved the issue.... still waiting on a confirmation/status.

Did you verify that MQ2Cast_Routines can cast twincast?

If so, I apologize for wasting for your time and you may close this ticket.

This comment by Maskoi continues to perplex me
${spellName.NotEqual[twincast]} is to make sure it doesn't confuse twincast with the AA
Click to expand...
as that is code in Kiss but not in MQ2Cast_Routines.ini

I remain convinced this is bug, but it is not an important issue, and do not wish to pursue this matter further.

Twincast for me is still not working. It echoes Twincast in the mq2 window but does nothing. I use DPS2=Twincast|100 and AssistAt=100. Using latest version of kiss.
