Nope, sure doesn't. Just logged her in to check to make sure it wasn't broke and I didn't know it. Is it possible when you were swapping her gear to yours you deleted a starting/closing tag and didn't realize it? I'll delete and repost to pastebin just to make sure I didn't mess something up.

Reposted it here: http://pastebin.com/1iyDM8vU but I'm fairly certain it wasn't broke before.

Anybody have a working cor xml they can send me? Going insane trying to do this shit myself. Trying to get one with preshot/midshot rules and rules for art medal, I saw some stuff was posted in this thread about it but no xml posted.

**TacoTaru** · 2011-05-21 15:33

I'm currently working on one, but it's giving me a weird error at the moment. I can post it up if you want if you know how to work on the kinks on that sort of things. Could probably Frankenstein it if nothing else if you have the urge.

Doh didnt' realize it was posted just last page, but I had deleted the one at that link anyway. http://pastebin.com/N3kVWeN6

**Fievel** · 2011-05-21 15:41

Yeah I tried to dl the previous one but saw the link was empty haha, thanks!

Never really had to write a Preshot rule before, so I'm not sure if this is right or not.

Code:

<!-- Ranged Attack --> 
<if Spell="Ranged"> 
<equip when="Precast" set="Preshot" />
<aftercastdelay delay=".5" /
<equip when="Midcast" set="RATT" />
</if>
<!--End-->

Missing a > after the delay.

**TacoTaru** · 2011-05-21 18:12

Other than that, is it right?

**Yugl** · 2011-05-21 18:37

No idea since I don't deal with RNG. I can tell you what they will do though.

Before ranged attack, equip Preshot set
~0.8s after that equip RATT set
Delay aftercast effects (Such as idle/TP) by 0.5s

New to scripting and attempting to mix in a tp/ws set on rdm. I'm having trouble getting main/sub locked. It's probably something silly I'm missing. This xml is a copy/paste and I still need to fit in a lot. thanks for any help.

Spoiler: show

If you put [ code ] and [ /code ] inside the spoiler, it'll keep the formatting.

**Yugl** · 2011-05-22 00:15

<if EquipMain="Name of weapon here|Name of another potential weapon here">
<equip when="all">
<main lock="yes">%EquipMain</main>
<sub lock="yes">%EquipSub</sub>
</equip>
</if>

My friend uses this on his WHM; works perfect. Use Reprisal for melee toggle.

Code:

<!--Toggles-->
		<if spell="Reprisal">
			<if advanced='"$Melee" = "0"'>
				<var cmd="set Melee 1" />
				<addtochat color="57">Gear Toggle - Melee On</addtochat>
			</if>
			<else>
				<var cmd="set Melee 0" />
				<addtochat color="57">Gear Toggle - Melee Off</addtochat>
			</else>
		</if>
		<if advanced='"$Melee" = "1"'>
			<equip when="idle|engaged|resting|precast|midcast|aftercast">
				<main lock="t" />
				<sub lock="t" />
				<range lock="t" />
			</equip>
		</if>
<!--End-->

Any ideas? lol

**Pendulum** · 2011-05-22 20:52

Slight syntax problems; use '>= 1' not '>=1' and a mix up with quote marks and apostrophe. Rest looks ok.

Fixed ver: http://pastebin.com/ptQLzsa1

Future hint: if you use notepad++ and the XML option in the 'Language' tab, errors like that are easier to spot with the colour-coding.

Edit: and for the above reprisal post you obviously need to define the Melee variable

Code:

<var name="Melee">0</var>

0 to default not locking weapon
1 to default locking weapon

**Slore** · 2011-05-22 21:13

thanks for the help cleared the errors up im giving up on xml though. I tried to make create one but for some reason this one wont swap the gear, spellcast says it loads fine, no errors in xml notepad but when loaded script does nothing. I conceed defeat lol

**Slore** · 2011-05-22 21:53

for some odd reason my mage xml's work fine but i cant for the life of me get a melee one to even change gear i have tried and tried, i reloaded 2.43 think that could be a issue?

**arioch** · 2011-05-22 22:13

Does anyone know how to have after cast delay set automatically based on my current spell casting time rather than the default cast time? I don't want to have to set it up for every spell myself =/

SpellCast doesn't know how fast your spells will actually cast. You'd have to do math based on the %CastTime, taking into account the amount of Fast Cast you have, Light/Dark Arts, etc. and using <cmd>wait $NewCastTime; /sc set Idle</cmd>

I have a spellcast var that changes by a keyboard shortcut, I also have a text box tied to that same button combination. My text box changes when I hit the buttons but fails to change the var.

Code:

Ctrl+Alt 1 - 3 changes my gear set and displays the sets name via the text plugin.

Code:

[init.txt]
//Spellcast Macro 
bind ^!1 spellcast var set GearSet DD
bind ^!1 text set Macro text "DD"
bind ^!2 spellcast var set GearSet Evasion
bind ^!2 text set Macro text "Evasion"
bind ^!3 spellcast var set GearSet Tank
bind ^!3 text set Macro text "Tank"

It seems to me windower will only do the last command listed for the button combination, so is there a way to tie 2 commands to one binding, or another way to do what I am trying to do?

**Cymmina** · 2011-05-23 06:44

Code:

bind ^!1 spellcast var set GearSet DD; text set Macro text "DD"
bind ^!2 spellcast var set GearSet Evasion; text set Macro text "Evasion"
bind ^!3 spellcast var set GearSet Tank; text set Macro text "Tank"
