Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius (Smartphones)

[Malithar]

I do TM farming, but I was having problems with my longer LB/earth shrine exit macro not lasting overnight reliably (it would work 30, 40, 50 times then for some reason I'd come back the next morning to see it clicking randomly around an esper screen >< ), so I just do earth shrine entrance.

There's a few tricks to get around that. Occasionally taps aren't registered so double tapping everything helps. There's also areas you do/don't want to tap. For that esper situation, if you tap too far up on the exit panel, you'll be lined up to eventually tap an esper. If your tap is directly on the yellow border on the bottom of the exit panel, it'll miss clicking the esper so if anything does happen, you won't find yourself stuck in the esper list.

I know there's some way to share macros, I'll check it out tonight and see about posting mine to help others. I've had no issues with it running for up to 20 hours, minus forgetting to clear out my materials.

Double taps fixed a ton of issues for me. Since I did that, haven't had any errors.

Macros are in users\<username>\appdata\local\nox\record

"records" is a list of all macros, the file(s) with a long string are the specifics of each macro. As a sidenote, you can do some manual tweaks by editing that file as opposed to re-recording a whole macro. Sometimes that is easier.

Anyone here use a Samsung device? Continuous auto battle doesn't work on either my S7 Edge or Tab 3

I searched around the interwebs but found nothing. If Mel with Drink equipped used Hero's Drink, will it effect everyone in the party via Salve job trait?

[Hioki]

It can be done with 3 but you may cut it close if you let timers sit on CD too long or we get an extended maintenance that throws things outta whack.

Only thing about this event that feels dumb are the boxes. No matter the type, they sell for 100 gil and they take a material slot. If they hadn't said in the event teaser that you can sell them for gil, I'd hoard them thinking they were needed to craft something. Flour rates seem a tad off too, though that could be intentional to force you to keep grinding. I'm sitting on hundreds of the other mats with flour being the blockade.

I'm not even certain why you would box them if you are just taking them out of the box the second you finish them. It doesn't even make sense in its own world. Its not as if your giving the mog king the boxes. You're likely selling them back to the bakery that made them.

Also at some point your taking them to the mog king, completely unpackaged, pouring out tens of thousands mogcakes at his feet from your bag. Our heros are kinda dicks.

[Coren]

I'm keeping the boxes to let me know how many I've made!

[Alkar]

Did 5 more pulls and managed to get another 3* Celes and 3* Terra. Quite happy with the results and I don't really care about Leo tbh.

[Hioki]

Did a 5 pull as well, Luna, Vaan, Terra, Rygor, Edgar. I'm ok with this

[Jamison]

I think this is going to be the approximate order I'll pick up items in:



I am on the fence about the Lunar Pestle for CoD though. There's a better mace coming out with one of the upcoming trials so it'd really just be a stop-gap.

Huh, I dunno where mine are saving to, but it ain't there it seems. After the /<username> portion, appdata isn't found. It's in Default.migrated. Go into local and there's just an empty Microsoft folder. I've found bits and pieces of Nox or Bignox spread around other portions of users, file directories, and documents.

Eeek. A quick Google search and it looks like that comes from an in-place upgrade from Windows 7 to 8... would that apply to you? In that case I don't really know where the OS is putting these files . If you can find a folder called "record" or a file called "records" that may get you to the right place.

Edit: also the parent folder to record has a file Nox.log -- maybe that will help.

[Malithar]

I dunno what's up. Searching my drive for 'record' brings it right up... in users/<username>/AppData/Local/Nox/record. Yet when I navigate to that manually, there is no AppData folder. Strange.

I'll get the file uploaded tomorrow and share. Knocked out a few runs of exploration to keep my stocks up. TM grinding actually helps a decent bit. Over the course of 17 hours it earned a little under 700 flour.

[Purrrfect]

Appdata is a hidden folder so you won't see it unless you have hidden folders visible.

Did they make a change to stealing? Until today I have never seen a monster that didn't have something the first time I stole, yet all day I've had a ton in the wild and in colosseum that don't have anything from the get-go.

[Coren]

Yes, the pattern changed to stealing in the coliseum. Bottom left spot used to be 100%. Now middle and top right are I think. Middle left is also 0% still.

Edit..Actually now the right middle fails on the first try as well. Ugh.

Pulled Locke this morning on my 250

Not entirely sure how transferring macros works, but I think you can just copy/paste this into notepad and save it as records.txt in your Users/<username>\AppData\Local\Nox\ folder. If you have any current macros, just paste it into your records.txt file, though I dunno if tagging it on the end. Likely need to delete a bracket I'd think.

One thing of note; to bypass daily missions I used a touch simulated key to insure I hit the right spot. You'll need to finish a daily and before clicking cancel, hit the second key from the top on Nox's menu, Simulate Touch. Tap on the cancel button and set that to your M key. That should work, as long as transferring macros works this way.

Spoiler: show

Big ol derp.

That's just the table of contents file. It has your "settings" in there, like repeat, interval, accel, etc. Look for the file names (ie "43a24f3590584fe2b9198249af046e07") for the actual macro.

You should see something like this:

0|110|577|0|0|0|2890|522|836
1|110|577|0|0|0|3006|522|836
0|110|577|0|0|0|6970|522|836
1|110|577|0|0|0|7086|522|836
0|57|737|0|0|0|11608|522|836
1|57|737|0|0|0|11742|522|836
0|255|754|0|0|0|16082|522|836
1|255|754|0|0|0|16196|522|836

Assumptions about what each one is:
The first 0/1 is whether you are touching or not.
The next 2 are your XY coordinates from the top left corner of the screen (so to share a macro you have to have the exact same resolution; mine is resized smaller so it doesn't slow down after a while running).
Unsure what the next 3 are as all mine are 0's.
The next number is milliseconds from the start time.
No idea what the last 2 are; every macro I have ends with 522 and 836.

In theory you could use this to manually edit macros, but you'd have to really work to fine-tune the times so you don't get them too close.

I'm thinking about just using autohotkey instead. It's got WAY more options, and I think

[Jamison]

I'm thinking about just using autohotkey instead.

I use AHK for a lot of stuff, but it's worth pointing out that while Gumi has acknowledged that Switch Control and Nox are not items they consider bannable, AutoHotKey very specifically falls outside of their TOS. I'm certainly not taking any moral high ground, but anyone using it should be aware the risks are immeasurably higher.

Derp. Got it, missed where Jamison said the files in records, not records itself. As far as sharing it, how would that work? If someone named the file thismacro.txt, would they need to update their records.txt to also have thismacro.txt within it, or would it auto detect and populate once Nox launches?

Sounds like Reddit is having an AMA. The post isn't explicitly called that, but it sounds like a chance to get concerns and feedback to the devs.
