I'm using a pretty much unmodified BRD.lua (the Kinematics one). I've played with the various Dharp toggles but no matter what I do I can't get GearSwap to trigger switching over to Dharp from Ghorn for a third song.

Is there something obvious I'm missing? I changed

options.DaurdablaModes = {'None','Dummy','Daurdabla'}
state.DaurdablaMode = 'Dummy'

and

-- How many extra songs we can keep from Daurdabla
info.DaurdablaSongs = 1
-- Whether to try to automatically use Daurdabla when an appropriate gap in current vs potential
-- songs appears, and you haven't specifically changed state.DaurdablaMode.
state.AutoDaurdabla = true

I have level 90 dharp only.

Is there something obvious I'm missing?

1) Turn state.AutoDaurdabla off (false). It works fine in simple scenarios, but starts having issues any time things get remotely complicated.

2) I have two (in-game) macros to deal with Daurdabla:

This one plays a dummy song that's intended to be replaced:

Code:

/console gs c set daurdabla Dummy
/ma "Shining Fantasia" <me>

This one sets up the daurdabla variable state for the next song that is sung (can be any song):

Code:

/console gs c cycle daurdabla

Use the first one when you're singing a standard cycle: [song1, song2, dummy, song3]
Use the second one when you want to add a third song, but don't (necessarily) want to use a dummy song. EG: [song1, song2, song3(with Daur)] You'll have to hit it twice to go from None to Dummy to Daurdabla. If you don't ever want to manually dummy a song (ie: you always use the first macro for that), you can change it to "/console gs c set daurdabla Daurdabla".

Using the cycle command runs through: None, Dummy, Daurdabla. None obviously does nothing to what gear set is used. Dummy uses the set with no +duration, but includes the Daurdabla. Daurdabla uses the Daurdabla plus all standard +duration gear (if you just want the songs up and don't have time to mess with dummy stuff).

Ukko's Fury doesnt swap gear, tried to name it in the sets.WS as: sets.WS["Ukko's Fury"]
doesnt work
tried to make its own rule: didnt work
why is ukkos fury refuseing to swap gear?

**dlsmd** · 2014-04-04 14:19

i want to check and see if my gear has been removed by an enemy but im not sure what function i should put it under or if this would even work and i also want it to only work if all gear is empty

Code:

if player.equipment.main == "empty" and player.equipment.sub == "empty" and player.equipment.head == "empty" and player.equipment.body == "empty" and player.equipment.hands == "empty" and player.equipment.legs == "empty" and player.equipment.feet == "empty" and player.equipment.neck == "empty" and player.equipment.waist == "empty" and player.equipment.left_ear == "empty" and player.equipment.right_ear == "empty" and player.equipment.left_ring == "empty" and player.equipment.right_ring == "empty" and player.equipment.back == "empty" and player.equipment.range == "empty" and player.equipment.ammo == "empty" then
		equip(sets[player.status])
	end

**Byrthnoth** · 2014-04-04 14:44

You don't have to worry about re-equipping gear when encumbrance wears. GearSwap does that automatically.

**TSFFXI** · 2014-04-04 14:45

Err, edit.

Code:

 	if spell.english == "Ukko's Fury" then
		equip(sets.WS.UkkosFury)
	end

Is the set named sets.WS.UkkosFury or sets.WS["Ukko\'s Fury"]?

does it also do it when a Yovra(aka "UFO") uses Torrential Torment (AoE damage and remove all equipment, strips Utsusemi)??

**Byrthnoth** · 2014-04-04 15:10

I'm not sure. I'd have to look at which packets are sent when that happens. I kind of doubt it, but I could potentially make it happen.

Thanks! I'll play with when I get home from work.

**dlsmd** · 2014-04-04 18:10

this code is not working for some reason
equip(sets.precast[Usestaff][spell.element])

Usestaff is a custom variable
here is my code
http://pastebin.com/SQ7LLXmp --Mage Staves include.lua
http://pastebin.com/VrDhuZw3 --blm.lua

**TSFFXI** · 2014-04-04 21:24

You have sets defined for sets.precast[Usestaff] but not for sets.precast[Usestaff][spell.element]. Also, you include the file in the get_sets() function and Usestaff is a string. Since get_sets() is only called once upon loading the file, you won't be able to edit the value.
Use an advanced set table to get around this (Byrthnoth and Motenten explained them to me on the last page, and there's another example concerning beastmaster jugs a few pages further back (38)).

Something like

Code:

Changestaff = {name="Atk"}
staves_index = 1
staves_array = {"Atk","Acc"}
...
function equip_elemental_magic_gear_command(command)
if command == tstavetouse then
     staves_index=staves_index % #staves_array +1
     Changestaff.name=staves_array[staves_index]
...
end

would work. It's Byrthnoth's solution to the beastmaster post applied to your file.

actualy i figured it out
i had
equip(sets.precast[Usestaff][spell.element])

but i should have had
equip(sets.Precast[Usestaff][spell.element])

the difference from p to P was my error

**TSFFXI** · 2014-04-05 13:13

Oops, sorry. I got a little trigger happy with most of that. I think using the table for the variable might be slightly faster since you don't have to check its value at any point, but either way works.

Oh, you had the sets defined as well, I just didn't see them. ^^; Sorry.

**dlsmd** · 2014-04-05 15:24

im having an issue with this code going in to an infinite loop

Code:

	Waltz.debuff = S{'Max HP Down','Max MP Down','Magic Evasion Down','Max TP Down','Magic Atk. Down','Magic Acc. Down','Magic Def. Down','Defense Down','Evasion Down','Attack Down','Accuracy Down','CHR Down','AGI Down','DEX Down','VIT Down','MND Down','INT Down','STR Down','Bane','Bio','Blind','Curse','Dia','Disease','Shock','Rasp','Choke','Frost','Burn','Drown','Flash','Paralyze','Plague','Poison','Silence','Slow','Weight'}
	spells.waltz = S{'Curing Waltz III','Curing Waltz II','Curing Waltz I'}
	if spells.waltz[spell.name] and spell.target.type =='SELF' then
		if (player.tp >= 20 and player.hpp >= 75) and Waltz.debuff[buffactive] then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('@input /ja "Healing Waltz" <me>')
		elseif (player.tp >= 50 and player.hpp <= 60) and player.sub_job_level >= 44 then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('@input /ja "Curing Waltz III" <me>')
		elseif (player.tp >= 35 and player.hpp <= 65) and player.sub_job_level >= 29 then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('@input /ja "Curing Waltz II" <me>')
		elseif (player.tp >= 20 and player.hpp <= 75) and player.sub_job_level >= 14 then
			cancel_spell()
			send_command('@input /ja "Curing Waltz" <me>')
		else
			cancel_spell()
		end
	end

does anybody know how i can stop it

--edit i fixed it by using a variable
but for some reason gearswap does not see Healing Waltz and Curing Waltz but it does see Curing Waltz II and Curing Waltz III

**TSFFXI** · 2014-04-05 18:49

It's going into an infinite loop because any waltz will always meet those conditions: Say you use Curing Waltz III. If your current HP and TP meet one of the conditions, you cancel the spell and tell windower to input another waltz. Gearswap sees the new waltz and sends it back down the same route, canceling the spell and telling windower to input another waltz again.

You need a way for gearswap to distinguish between a new waltz and a waltz that has already been through the check-list. This probably isn't the best way to do it, but it should work:

Create a boolean, waltz_handled, and set it to false. Put your code into a separate function (if it isn't already) and call it in the precast function.

Code:

function precast(spell)
if spell.type == 'Waltz' and not waltz_handled then
       your_function(spell)
end

after each send_command... set waltz_handled to true. At the end of the aftercast function, set waltz_handled to false.

I am having trouble making custom timers for various abilities/buffs. I have looked over this thread and seen a couple of samples to get Aftermath timers working, and looked at the sample .lua which give custom timers, such as Moten's SMN one.

However after applying them to my .lua files, none of them have worked for me sadly.

Is there a bog standard code that would allow me to create a custom timer for when my aftermath, of varying levels, is up (canceling it when it wears)?
And if so, can the same code be used to generate custom timers for abilities and buffs such as rolls/songs?

The answer is probably staring me right in the face... but I figured I would ask.

Thanks

**Kuroganashi** · 2014-04-07 12:53

here is a noob question: Do i need to put "Mote-Includes" "Mote-globals" ETC.... on my GearSwap Folder ?

I am still a bit Disoriented about GS

Thanks in Advance.

I haven't made any modifications to your file except for switching to gear that I have. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
