You can probably disable spellcast on items somehow.

Nub question #3:

I'm trying to figure out how get spellcast to see me trying to cast ifrit on THF, and use Sneak Attack/equip solo SA equipment instead. However, I'm unsure of the code associated with spellcast forcing a command. I could do the whole... <command when="precast">input /ja "Sneak Attack" <me></> but seems a bit... you know.
Would this work instead?

Code:

<if spell="Ifrit">
   <equip when="precast" set="SoloSA"/>
   <command when="Precast" spell="Sneak Attack"/>

This should hopefully remove SA from activating any sort of reposnse from spellcast if I use '/ja "sneak attack" <me>' ingame.

(I want to avoid SATAWS trying to swap full sets of gear 3 times in 1 second

**Yugl** · 2012-03-01 20:47

try

Code:

<if spell="Ifrit">
<equip when="precast" set="SoloSA" />
<changespell spell="Sneak Attack" />
</if>

Place at the bottom. On BLU, changespell from Utsu to Occult didn't change gear, so I had to add that into the changespell rule, which seems to be what you want.

Macro

//input /raw /ja "Sneak Attack" <me>

If you just do ifrit/changespell spellcast will still see it.

Edit: To clarify, it'll depend on your other rules, but if you want to sneak an action in without spellcast, raw is the easiest way.

Thanks for replies, I got it working last night with the following:

Code:

		<if spell="Ifrit">
			<equip when="precast" set="SoloSA"/>
			<action type="command" when="precast">input /ja "Sneak Attack" Shred</action>/>
		</if>

(adapted from the example code from spellcast site)

I'll try the changespell when I get online next.

Edit: To clarify, it'll depend on your other rules, but if you want to sneak an action in without spellcast, raw is the easiest way.

I have the following in my other rules:

Code:

		<if spell="Sneak Attack">
		<equip when="aftercast" set="blank_locked_set"/>
		</if>

Which was suggested a few pages ago.

From a brief test before I logged last night, it all seems to be working as intended.

Fixed the problem, editing away my embarrassment.

Is there a good repository of spellcast files outside the windower wiki which seems quite dated?

Alternately, does anyone have a good MNK, NIN, and PLD spellcast?

For some reason, threads seem to turn invisible when stickied.

**Tanag** · 2012-03-05 15:55

Thanks!

You're right, I basically don't notice the stickied threads. I think because they don't change often people kind of glance over them.

**Gun-it** · 2012-03-05 22:13

Code:

</if>	
			<if spell="Restoring Breath">
			<equip when="precast|Midcast|Aftercast">			
			<neck>Lancer's Torque</neck>
			<head>Wyrm Armet</head>
			<legs>Drachen Brais +1</legs>
			<waist>Glassblower's Belt</waist>
			<lear>Lancer's Earring</lear>
			<back>Lancer's Pelerine</back>
			<hands>Ostreger Mitts</hands>
			<body>Wyvern Mail</body>
			<feet>Wyrm Greaves +2</feet>
			</equip>
		</if>

Was wondering if my gear will still be equipped for healing breath or do i need to change my xml?

**Yugl** · 2012-03-05 22:29

Looks correct.

**Gun-it** · 2012-03-05 22:31

Only getting Healing breaths for about 500 and that seems low.

**Gun-it** · 2012-03-05 22:48

adding <aftercastdelay delay="3.5" /> seem to get it work.

**Yugl** · 2012-03-06 17:04

My Spellcast has been wonky lately, but I haven't made any changes that would affect it (DAT changes). Yesterday, MNK was wonky but suddenly fixed itself (Without reason). Now I have this issue on BLU. What the hell?

**grevenilvec75** · 2012-03-06 17:27

Define wonky.

PDT/MDT/TP triggers would cease to work. Aftercast changes would not work.

**Darkmagi** · 2012-03-06 18:06

I had issues like you are describing with sleep timers in an old XML of mine. They were working fine for many months with no changes made to the xml, and then suddenly stopped working.

**Motenten** · 2012-03-06 19:43

I've actually had similar issues periodically on my thf xml. Last time it happened was because of some odd combination of actions that set a variable in an unexpected way, so that it never got reset and ended up blocking a bunch of stuff. That would be the first thing I'd look for.
