I made this one temporarily a while back. Someone will probably come by with a better one though: http://pastebin.com/G8PM0rNG

Thanks alot again, Yugl ! One question though, if i have any corresponding elemental stave in my inventory while casting an elemental ninja spell, does it automatically swap it on?

EDIT: Also, on this part:

<group name="Nonin-Katana" default="no">
<set name="TP">
<head>Iga Zukin +2</head>
<hands>Ocelot Gloves</hands>
<lring />
<rring />
<rear />
<lear />
<legs />
<feet />
<waist />
<back />
<body />
<neck />
<ammo />

Do i have to type in </lring> or the corresponding ending?

**Yugl** · 2011-04-18 11:47

You type in the corresponding ending for all of them?

<lring>gear here</lring>

For staffs, it automatically equips them IF your main has "Staff" in the name (Unless it's Ram staff). So if you have Vulcan's Staff on or some other elemental staff, it will start changing them for nukes.

**Vathris** · 2011-04-18 11:48

Oh i get it, thanks!

**Radec** · 2011-04-18 12:00

The elseif for Ugga is matched with the advanced="$ArtMedal==1" - this is true, so it never uses the elseif.

If you want to keep a toggle for artmedal, add it to the same time as the moon check. Also, missing several " and '

Code:

<elseif advanced="$ArtMedal==1">
            <if advanced="%MOONPCT > 30">

becomes

Code:

<elseif advanced='"$ArtMedal"=="1" AND "%MOONPCT"&gt;"30"'>

Edit: derp derp there was another page

**Pendulum** · 2011-04-18 12:39

Set up my variable to equip Ultion during perfect counter and it swaps in fine but, when PC wears, Atheling will not swap back in even when i press my macro to equip TP gear (/sc set tp). Atheling does swap in after I perform an action (such as Focus) but is it possible for the correct item to be swapped in when i enter the command '/sc set tp'.

Relevant code:

Code:

<variables>
<var name="Cape">Atheling Mantle</var>
</variables>

<rules>
       <if mode="or" spell="Perfect Counter" BuffActive="Perfect Counter">
            <action type="Var" cmd="set Cape Ultion Mantle" />
       </if>
       <else>
            <action type="Var" cmd="set Cape Atheling Mantle" />
       </else>	
</rules>

I'd need TP set linked to a dummy spell perhaps? Or Autoexec? (no experience with this).

**Esvedium** · 2011-04-18 13:06

Autoexec would be easiest for this.

**Yugl** · 2011-04-18 13:19

You need Autoexec if you're not using a substitute spell/JA since it only reacts when you perform an action.

**Pendulum** · 2011-04-18 13:46

Ok I've never used autoexec before and have couple of questions:

Because I play 2 accounts i will need to make 2 xmls ie: autoexec_char1/2.xml?

All I need in the autoexec file (for now at least) would be:

Code:

<autoexec>
<register id="x" silent="true" event="losebuff_Perfect Counter">sc set TP</register>
</autoexec>

x being anything between 10000 and 65000.

Correct? Thanks for the help.

Tried that and got: "Error in Expression: Invalid right operand 1:64 for &&. Both operands must be of type bool. Spellcast: "1" == "1" and "90 > 30""

**Radec** · 2011-04-19 00:41

Change
"%MOONPCT > 30"
to
"%MOONPCT" > "30"
Same thing for 80 and 31, add the extra "

Edit: also, change Geotia to Goetia

**Pendulum** · 2011-04-19 11:44

To answer my own question, what I wrote did not work. I tried changing it to:

Code:

<register id="44441" silent="true" event="losebuff_Perfect Counter">sc var s Cape Atheling Mantle</register>

and

Code:

<register id="44441" silent="true" event="losebuff_Perfect Counter">sc var s Cape Atheling Mantle; sc set TP</register>

neither seems to work but when i manually enter the var command in the windower console and then '/sc set TP', the capes do swap.

Wut am I doing wrong? I picked up the gist of the syntax from the windower.net page and this post

**Radec** · 2011-04-19 12:01

sc v s cape "Atheling Mantle"

Right now it's swapping to just "Atheling"

**Yugl** · 2011-04-19 12:12

Spoiler: show

Any ideas on why it won't work? It works when I change emote to tell.

**Cymmina** · 2011-04-19 16:07

Code:

<elseif advanced='"$ArtMedal"=="1" AND "%MOONPCT &gt; 30"'>

You have too many quotes. Should be this:

Code:

<elseif advanced='"$ArtMedal"=="1" AND %MOONPCT &gt; 30'>

Wrong. If you quote numbers, you will run into situations where "100" is less than "30" because it is being compared alphabetically since it is a string, instead of numerically.

try changing emote to * and see if it detects emotes. if it doesnt the emote scanning is broken

mm, my mistake. Was copied from comparing set variable flags (0/1/2), ty.

This isn't correct as I was able to enter the command successfully in to the windower console without quotes around atheling but it did get me on the right track.

The problem was 'losebuff_Perfect Counter', spaces need to be replaced with underscores.

Code:

<register id="44440" silent="true" event="losebuff_Perfect_Counter">sc v s Cape Atheling Mantle; sc set TP</register>

Is working correctly, swapping ultion out for atheling when perfect counter works.

Good spellcast for Masamune SAM with rules for Zerk up and Zerk down ws sets and pdt/mdt/idle sets? Same question for Kannagi NIN, with ninjutsu skill sets as well.

**testdummy** · 2011-04-20 06:54

Most of the time spellcast works fine, but randomly I'll get this error:
"SpellCast: Error in Expression: Syntax error at position (a random number) near (random amount of garbage text)"

It can go on for lines sometimes, sometimes reloading spellcast will fix the problem, but other times if ignore it, Windower will crash. It usually shows up if I happen to change through a ton of jobs without logging out.
