Hello.

I'm using Kinematic's BLM lua file but am having a hard time adding elemental obi functionality.

Here's the code as I have it now.

I took the information on how to add obi support to this file from this thread;

link removed because I don't have 10 posts...

Though I'm not having any luck getting it to work.

I think it has something to do with the mote-include file, as the code seems to reference gear.ElementalObi.

sets.midcast['Elemental Magic'] = {main="Eminent Staff",sub="Bugard Strap +1",ammo="Witchstone",
        head="Wayfarer Circlet",neck="Stoicheion Medal",ear1="Hecate's Earring",ear2="Friomisi Earring",
        body="Wicce Coat",hands="Goetia Gloves +1",ring1="Icesoul Ring",ring2="Acumen Ring",
        back="Kaikias' Cape",waist=gear.ElementalObi,legs="Wayfarer Slops",feet="Wayfarer Clogs"}

But then in the mote-include file it doesn't seem to define the obis. This is all that's there.

  gear.ElementalGorget = {name=""}
    gear.ElementalBelt = {name=""}
    gear.ElementalObi = {name=""}
    gear.ElementalCape = {name=""}
    gear.ElementalRing = {name=""}
    gear.FastcastStaff = {name=""}
    gear.RecastStaff = {name=""}

It's possible I need to input something here, but without a reference I'm not sure what syntax to use.

I also tried to define the parameters to use elemental obis inside my BLM file ignoring the mote-include file but also had no luck. It seemes like something in the mote files is overwriting anything I try, or I'm just doing it wrong.

Any help I can get would be appreciated as I've been messing around with this for many hours.

Thank you!

Get a fotia obi and put that under gear.elementalbelt

[Singular]

I would but doesn't that involve Synergy?

[NynJa]

Ask a friend to help w it. As long as you have access to a crucible, they can do the dirty work.

[Singular]

I don't have a friend with Synergy, and I'm missing a couple obis anyway.

Also, I decided to put my Ice Obi in this field during Ice Day just to test it and it didn't work.

gear.ElementalGorget = {name=""}
    gear.ElementalBelt = {name=""}
    gear.ElementalObi = {name="Hyorin Obi"}
    gear.ElementalCape = {name=""}
    gear.ElementalRing = {name=""}
    gear.FastcastStaff = {name=""}
    gear.RecastStaff = {name=""}

Then I tried adding this set to sets

sets.Obi = {}
		sets.Obi.Fire = {waist='Karin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}
		sets.Obi.Earth = {waist='Dorin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}
		sets.Obi.Water = {waist='Suirin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}
		sets.Obi.Wind = {waist='Furin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}
		sets.Obi.Ice = {waist='Hyorin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}
		sets.Obi.Thunder = {waist='Rairin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}
		sets.Obi.Light = {waist='Korin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}
		sets.Obi.Dark = {waist='Anrin Obi',back='Twilight Cape',lring='Zodiac Ring'}

And added this into the code;

function midcast(spell,action)
        if spell.action_type == 'Magic' then
            if sets.midcast[spell.english] then
                equip(sets.midcast[spell.english])
            elseif spell.english:startswith('Protect') or spell.english:startswith('Shell') then
                equip(sets.midcast.ProtectShell)
            elseif spell.skill == 'Elemental Magic' then
                if spell.english:startswith('Stone') then
                     equip(sets.midcast.Stone)	
                elseif spell.english == 'Impact' then
                     equip(sets.midcast['Elemental Magic'],{body="Twilight Cloak"})
                else equip(sets.midcast['Elemental Magic'])
                end
                if spell.element == world.weather_element or spell.element == world.day_element then
                     equip(sets.obi[spell.element])
                end
            elseif sets.midcast[spell.skill] then
                equip(sets.midcast[spell.skill])
            else equip(sets.precast.Fastcast)
            end
        end
    end

But no matter what I do, those obis will just not equip.

Please help! I'm starting to lose my hair, been working on this for days...

[trv]

Capitalize obi in equip(sets.obi[spell.element]).

[Trumpy]

Just shout then for synergy pro.

Is it possible to use AutoRA, but for specific magic spells? I want to spam Dia on lair reives. Replacing the /shoot command with /ma "Dia" results in me casting when I hit ctrl+d, but it only casts once and doesn't repeat. (I'm engaged and with no tp)

the AutoRA addon no it cant but you could build an addon of your own to do it but the Windower team will most likely never allow it to be added to the windower program it will have to be third party

Thanks, but I don't really know how. I've looked through your skillup script trying to get an understanding of what makes the casting of spells repeat, but this sort of stuff isn't really my thing. Really all I want to do is have /dia (and eventually /banish, /bio, etc.) repeat every 4 or so seconds(or just any timer I can manually change). I tried toying around with a few attempts, but I'm woefully inept at this.

the way i recast spells in my skill up is by waiting for the spell to reach aftercast then sending the command with a delay to start the next cast

like this
send_command('wait 3.0;input /ma "'..gs_skill.skillup_spells[gs_skill.skillup_count]..'" <me>')

gs_skill.skillup_spells[gs_skill.skillup_count] is that spell name i want to cast next

Thank you so much. I've gotten all the self-casted magic skills capped because of your script, and with the help you just gave me, I managed to get it to spam Dia(and eventually Bio/Banish) without me having to mash the macro for hours. I seriously appreciate it! Thanks again!

Hello !

I have a problem with my lua BLM

I have a rules who equip obi during day/weather. But it seems that my rule want equip the obi during casting of Meteor who it doesn't an elemental magic (obi equipped during all days/weather) :
There's my rule :

function job_post_midcast(spell, action, spellMap, eventArgs)
if spellMap == 'Cure' and spell.target.type == 'SELF' and sets.self_healing then
equip(sets.self_healing)
end
if spell.skill == 'Elemental Magic' or ( spell.skill == 'Dark Magic' and spell.name == 'Death' ) then
if spell.element == world.day_element or spell.element == world.weather_element then
equip({waist="Hachirin-No-Obi"})
add_to_chat(8,'----- Obi Equipped. -----')
end
end
end

Is it possibly to include an exclusion for the spell Meteor ?

I checked in mote-mapping if i can find the way where Meteor is classed, but i didn't find it

Thanks for helping

1. this is redundant(because Death is the only Dark Magic spell you want it to work on)
spell.skill == 'Dark Magic' and spell.name == 'Death'
just use spell.name == 'Death'

2. if your trying to not have that rule process when you use Meteor just do this

if spell.name ~= "Meteor" and (spell.skill == 'Elemental Magic' or spell.name == 'Death') then

[Tarage]

My aftercast suddenly stopped working. I didn't change anything, but the update has caused it to stop working. I no longer go back to my idle set. Anyone else having this problem?

EDIT: I shouldn't say aftercast, I should say it's just not going back to idle.

EDIT2: It seems like pet_aftercast is broken.

[Falkirk]

Post-update, noticed Gearswap doesn't recognize when you have a pet out (isn't picking up on pet_midcast, etc).

[Draylo]

Equipped a Unity leader shirt and getting spammed with "Lua runtime error: GearSwap/equip_processing.lua:258: attempt to index field "?" (a nil value)" and I checked that line and its the same as my laptop. No idea what is causing the issue. Even replaced the file equip_processing.lua and nothing.

Edit: Er apparently its my new Tizona doing it.

Suuure, you thought it was the shirt.

[Draylo]

I did? Reason being, as soon as I equipped the shirt I got the error to pop up. Found out it wasn't after I relogged and took weapon off and re-equiped shirt. Not sure what you are trying to imply.

[Sechs]

Not sure what you are trying to imply.

He's trying to imply you're bragging about having 119 vIII Tizona thanks to the fact you had Afterglow before and that the Shirt was just an excuse.

Haters gonna hate etc =/
