Thread: Help With Macro's
does anyone know how to make a macro to take off all your armor at once?
yes
you need to first put your armor in to the toolbar slots on one you do not use much (easier). Example: ctrl-F4
Now put your armor in the the slots 1 through 7.
create macro
/ui action toolbarPane03;
/ui action toolbarSlot00;
/ui action toolbarSlot01;
/ui action toolbarSlot02;
/ui action toolbarSlot03;
/ui action toolbarSlot04;
/ui action toolbarSlot05;
/ui action toolbarSlot06;
/ui action toolbarPane00;
then creat a hot key in the options page
The commands you need are /ui action toolbarSlotXX; with XX as a number between 00 and 23. Place each item you want to put on/take off with the macro in a slot in the toolbar and use /ui action toolbarSlotxx as a separate command for each item. Then place the macro icon in one of the other toolbar slots and you should be able to wear or remove an entire set of armor faster than your buddy can put on a single item.
There is also a command to change panes /ui action toolbarPanexx; this will be 00-05. With this you could put your armor command on the toolbar with all your combat commands and have it access another pane with your armor and then change back automatically.
Play with it and try differnet things, worst case is your new idea won't work the way you try it.
Yes... first, pick an unused toolbar and put all your armor in the F1 to F12 slots, and the suit of clothes you wish to change into regularly in the Shift-F1 to Shift-whatever slots (typically you wear many fewer clothes than armor pieces; I have room on my bottom bar for three suits of clothes and my weapons).
If you wish to have the macro displayed on a different bar, you will need to include the commands
/ui action toolbarPane##; at the beginning to change to whichever pane has the armor stored on it and again at the end to change back to the toolbar where you placed this macro; where ## is one less than the displayed number of the pane (toolbar 1 is toolbarPane00, toolbar 6 is toolbarPane05). I don't bother with this, as changing armortypes (for those of you with a set of bone and a set of chitin) or armor to clothes is not a rush job. Instead I just put the macro in the F1 slot on my armor and clothes toolbar.
You will then use the command /ui action toolbarSlot##; to toggle each piece of armor and clothing on or off. In other words, if the item was equipped this command will unequip it, but if the item was unequipped this command will equip it. You need this command for each item you wish to toggle. Note that the ## here is 00 to 11 for the F1 to F12 slots and 12 to 23 for the Shift-F1 to Shift-F12 slots.
For example, I have the following macro in my F1 slot on the sixth toolbar pane. My armor is in the F2 to the F7 slots, and my usual set of clothes is in the Shift-F1 to Shift-F4 slots. I also have my weapons in the F9 to F12 slots, and my dress up clothes in the remaining Shift-Fkey slots, but that doesn't enter into this macro at all.
ArmorToClothes (placed in my F1 slot on the Sixth Toolbar)
/ui action toolbarSlot01; /ui action toolbarSlot02; /ui action toolbarSlot03; /ui action toolbarSlot04; /ui action toolbarSlot05; /ui action toolbarSlot06; /ui action toolbarSlot12; /ui action toolbarSlot13; /ui action toolbarSlot14; /ui action toolbarSlot15
I am a Master BH and a Master CM, I am looking for help with writing a macro for my heals and to keep them looping while i am in battle so i do not have to keep pushing the icon on the toolbar. What I am asking for is the way i would write this. Can anyone help me?
