    Macro Question

    I was told that it is possible to move all of your current macro's to other pc/char without typing those long ass lines of text again is this true? And if so how is it possible.

    \PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\USER

    In that folder is a generated folder for each character. copy all those (they contain your settings and macros). Paste them into the PC you're moving to (same location they were copied from). It shouldn't overwrite any other characters settings as the folder name is generated by the content ID.

    If you want to copy macro sets from 1 char to another, enter the folder for that character and copy/paste it into the folder of the character you're moving it to.

    ie. copy from \PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\USER\x1234\ to \PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\USER\x1235\

    You can also just copy 1 macro set if that is all you need, you can find which one by opening the .mcr files in wordpad.
