I've got 8 of them in my macro right now, and am crafting Ubese armor shirts. I have it all set up, but when I start the macro, I put in the components into my first tool, and I don't get any xp for it. Not only that, but I end up saying outloud - "/nextcrafting stage".

Whatam I doing wrong here? All rest of the tools work fine, and I get xp for them...just not sure about this first one. I've stared at the macro until I'm blue in the face, and I can't see any text that's different for the first tool, that's different from the other 7. Anyone else here have that problem??

STILL not getting that first tool to work...and I've used 3 differen't tools. NO spaces, nothing I can see is wrong...just WON'T engage. What a waste of resources. Not ONLY that, but I've had to retype the last half of my macro, when I add the 3 other tools to it FIVE TIMES. It keeps dissappearing. Do the macro gods hate???

i dont know what your macro looks like but it should be:

/nextcraftingstage;

/createprototype practice no item;

the extra /next command alot of people forget to put in when they craft the ubese shirts. You need to be by a crafting station to craft the shirts, meaning you will get the window letting you choose to experiment, create the item, or make a schmatic. Hope this helps.

That's exactly what I have, however I still have to sacrifice that first tool...though I'm not putting any materials in it now, as I know better.

HOWEVER, this is the 5th time in a ROW...I've had to RETYPE the 3 other tools into my macro. Maybe it has something to do with me be next to my personal crafting machine I don't know, but this SUCKS. I'm going to go upstairs, RETYPE this crafting macro AGAIN, and hopefully tomorrow evening, what I type tonight, won't be gone...anyone else having this problem TOO?

I've had trouble with long macro's on the past. For some reason they seem to "freak out" when they get beyond a certain length. I've checked, re-checked and triple checked them, and they just dont do what I've typed. And they change themselves sometimes.

The solution I've used is to break them into several smaller macros. For example, I just finished doing Armorsmith with 12 craft tools, using the following method:

I used three macros title, in order: ubese, ubese2 and ubese3

Set up the first macro to run slots 00, 01, 02, 03, & 04.

As the last line of this macro: /macro ubese2

The second macro ran slots 05 thru 09

Last line: /macro ubese3

Third maco runs slots 10 & 11

Last line : /macro ubese

Then you just need to start the first macro and it loops all 3 until you /dump.

I hope that solves your problem.

i've had the problem with my macros not saving right, i will use them then log on a different time and go to use them and more than half of it is missing, so i dont use in game macros anymore, i will type them in notepad, then load them when i get into the game.

If you're saying /nextCraftingStage out loud, then that's the command that is being skipped and would result in you not getting the exp for the craft. It will take the resources though.

I'd recommend going into your Ctrl-O options menu and under Interface>Keymap (I think it is) you can rebind your Chat>Copy and Chat>Paste. I have mine rebound to Ctrl-Shift-C and Ctrl-Shift-V. By doing this, you can create an exact copy of one of your working macros (ie. the one for your second crafting tool) and create an entirely new one with the exact same text. Then just replace the toolbarSlot## with the correct number and give it a whirl. This should definately fix it. =)
