Here is my question. After I select the resources to use and the shirt disappears from the window, do I alwaya have to physically close the window? if I don't then the message comes up "You are already crafting" when the next tool is selected.

"We wanted more instant gratification: kill, get treasure, repeat." Quote from the NY Times from a Senior staffer at Lucasarts.

For the grinders who want to know how to find schematic numbers:

Yes, you can find it by counting the schematics. I tried that and found that it actually took longer than it did when I modified my macro to search for the right one.

All you need to do is change the pause times between tools to "1", then change the "sel" number after each cycle. Pretty soon you'll find your schematic.

Ex. You have six tools in your macro. Modify the pause times between tools (this is the /pause 4; in the macro given above) to /pause 1; . Change the first /sel line to "1", the second to "2" and so on till the last one in your macro is "6". Run the macro and you'll find a rapid-fire scrolling through crafting windows with each schematic popping up long enough for you to check if it's the right one. Once the correct schematic comes up, check your macro to see which spot it popped up in. If it was the fifth one and the fifth spot in your macro was /sel 4, then the correct schematic number is /sel 4. If it didn't pop up in that cycle, simply edit your macro starting with /sel 7 and going through /sel 12. Repeat until you find the right schematic. This was MUCH faster than counting and I never had to worry about losing count.

It's even faster finding armour, since you can run /sel #s by tens and catch the right style of armor, then zero in on the right piece.

Hope this helps.

idk if this is still active but i get the msg. "waiting for manufacting schematic download..." What should i do? everything is righ and etc

EDIT - nvm i got it working now, i love this so much lol

One day I was complaining to a friend how sick and tired I was of searching for the schematic numbers of things I wanted to grind, as it seems that they randomly changed on me every so often. My friend had gotten annoyed at that too, and had modified his grinding macro like so:

/pause 0.25;

/ui action toolbarSlot00;

/pause 4;

/nextcraftingStage;

/nextcraftingStage;

/nextcraftingStage;

/createPrototype practice no item;

/createPrototype practice no item;

/pause 2;

/macro GrindTailorXP2;

I've bolded the changed parts here. What you need to do when you use this macro is before you start it, load up your tool and select the item you're going to grind. Click on 'Next' (or hit Enter) to where you are at the resource selection screen, then hit 'Back' and exit the tool. Start your macro, and this iswhat the bolded parts change against the regular macro: You're tool will load up and you'll actaully see the item you've selected previously and pause 2 seconds (you can cut this down if you are in a no-lag area to grind in to like 1.3 or something, but it'll get all wonky if you're having lag issues). Then since 'Next' is the default button, you'll be taken to your resource selection screen to enter your resources. This macro works with or without a crafting station.

YOU DON'T NEED TO FIND THE BLASTED SCHEMATIC NUMBER ANYMORE!!!!!! (Sorry, I was REALLY psyched when my friend showed me this trick). All you need is to be able to select your grinding item from your tool. You can then use the same macro to grind any crafting class without changing anything but pause times, and you don't have to poke around until you find the schematic numberyou need!

You DO need to select the item you are grinding before you start though! And if something happens to the macro and it loses the proper item, you'll need to do a /dump and load the tool up again. However, with the 2 second timer, this rarely happens to me.

Any questions, just poke me!

Hmmm...this macro works great for me when grinding on my Weaponsmith prof....but when I try to do it with the Tailor it does nothing except eat my resources. Any ideas as to why this is?

Are you sure you are using an item that is actually in Tailor? If you're making an artisan clothing item, it will give you generic crafting xp, not tailoring xp.
