You need to say when this error occurred. Basically, the SC is trying to equip a set named NoneSet. The "None" is from a variable I imagine (Look at variables and you'll see why), but the question is which variable.

[Tyler]

If you add the buff rule before your dancing chains rule, you shouldn't need to hit 2 macros. When your DancingChains hits, SC should read the "Buffactive=Restraint" piece and use that when updating the gear.

Ok I tried the following but i could not get it to work

<if spell="$TriggerSetOne|$TriggerSetTwo|$TriggerSetTh ree">
<if spell="$TriggerSetOne">
<!-- Auto Update Gear -->
<if spell="Dancing Chains">
<cancelspell />
<if status="idle">
<equip set="%Status|$Armor|$Regen|$Movement-%Status|$TwilightSet" />
</if>
<elseif status="engaged">
<equip set="TP-$STYLE-$Restraint|$Armor|$Movement-%Status|$TwilightSet" />
<addtochat>TP-$STYLE-$Restraint</addtochat>
</elseif>
<elseif status="resting">
<equip set="%Status" />
</elseif>
</if>
<if BuffActive="Restraint">
<equip when="precast|midcast|aftercast">
<hands>Ravager's Mufflers +2</hands>
</equip>
<var cmd="set TP-2Handed-Restraint" />
</if>
<else>
<var cmd="set TP-2Handed-N" />
</else>

Any suggestions?

For the last few days, not sure if it coincides with moving to Windower4, it's possible, but can't guarantee, when I'm on my BST and throw a /ma ClassTrigger .whatever at the game, I get "Magic command appears improperly formatted" in my chat log. The command still processes through the xml and does what it's supposed to do, but when smacking alt-f2 2-3 times in a row to cycle through ready moves (and every other classtrigger I use), it gets distracting.

I'd prefer to not change all my class triggers to something else, but if I can't get rid of that, I might. =/

Just loaded up my rdm xml and hit my pdt macro, which uses /ma ClassTrigger .PDT and get the same "Magic command appears improperly formatted" message, but it swaps me into my pdt gear....

The <var cmd> stuff should appear before the Dancing Chains rule (Seems to be after here). The variable rule should say <var cmd="set Restraint Restraint" /> as well.

I think find needs to load before or after SC. Idr which.

Thank you for helping me out

The error happen right when I change jobs and do my first action. So I rest (gear doesn't change) then I get up and I get that message. That's why I posted here, I figured its just someone I didn't fill out, or setting that I need to set that I didn't. I'm going to try searching for "None" and changing it slightly just to see if I can change the error and get an idea what it is trying to change to.

If all else fails.. I guess I can try a simpler sch.xml..

I had spellcast loading before find in my windower3.x init.txt, so it might have been when I switched over to windower4. I changed the settings.xml file to have find at the bottom of the list, I'll test it out tonight and see if that works. Thanks for the help!

I think this is the issue:

<var cmd="set Convert None" />

You need to use <var cmd="set ConvertSet None" /> since that's what the other similar variables use.

That's it~! Thanks so much.

For anyone else getting these errors while using ClassTrigger for spellcast, it's the Itemizer plugin that is causing the issues when loaded before spellcast. I reloaded Itemizer after logging in and don't get the error message anymore.

Ok i am stuck. I tried adding in the restraint rules, those now work fine, but I am getting an error message which says "Spellcast variables missing additional paramaters for TP-2handed-N"

I have no idea what that means, infact i don't really understand all the variables i have in the spellcast....

Ok now my 2 hour swap for relic+2 hands not working at all, and i for the life of me can't get the Poison V gear to swap at all. Any suggestions as to what i am doing wrong would be much appreciated.

To further clarify, i don't completely understand what is the purpose of the following

<var name="Berserk">N</var>
<var name="Restraint">N</var>
<var name="BloodRage">N</var>

Does that mean that "N" throughout will check as any one of those buffs?


<var name="PDT">PDT</var>
<var name="MDT">MDT</var>

Totaly confused as to why you would have to restate the same variables?

I am trying to learn this a bit, but even reading the guides on the spellcast forum and here have not really helped. (though i do understand now get the /if /else etc.)


Anyways any help to clear up stuff in the Spellcast that is not necessary would be much apprecated, ideally i would like to get rid of includes and autoexec if at all possible.

[Yugl]

I'll look at the XML later, but the variables help equip a multitude of different sets without using multiple rules.

Look at this:
<equip set="$Berserk-$Restraint-$BloodRage|$PDT|$MDT" />

Using this, you can equip different sets by manipulating the value of the variable. If no variables manipulated, you equip the set N-N-N|PDT|MDT. If you have a rule to change Restraint from "N" to "Restraint" when the buff is active, you then equip N-Restraint-N|PDT|MDT. So you can see how this may be useful when you need to account for multiple buffs. You create a variable you wish to track a specific buff and add that buff to the rule.

I didn't fix the Poison V issue completely (Wouldn't be able because your sets don't support any viable method atm), but I see what the issue is.

1. You tried to do <var cmd="set TP-2Handed-Restraint" />, which doesn't assign a value (Hence, your error)
2. Your Poison V was assigning VAR-TP-$STYLE, which isn't what you want to do

I assume you want an equip set like . . .
<equip set="TP-$STYLE-$VARTP|$Restraint" />

Anyways, if you understood the previous post, you'll understand the issue. If not, just ask.

Thanks I think I understand enough to do some trial and error type edits (it's how I learn anyways). I really want to get to the point where I understand all the mechanics so I can start tweaking a bit.

Hello, I'm a first time spell cast user, I have some knowledge of coding (learned C++ back in the day) so I'm not completely lost. I'm using a spellcast .xml I found online (might have been this site yesterday was very hazy). That i've tried to adapt to me.

So far I've gotten everything to work except two things:

I'm not switching into my ws gear before stardiver (or other ws's).

When I try to use HB on a defensive sub (/rdm) everything works fine except my af helm doesn't go on before the spell fires off, which means i'm not able to use hb at 50%.

Spellcast in the spoiler, please don't poke fun at my gear, there's another thread for that!

Thanks for your help!

I don't see where "Healing Set Pre" is defined. You reference it several times but I don't actually see a set. Healing Set Mid has a set.

Your rule that looks like the one that puts on your healing gear is set not to equip healing breath gear unless your HP below 33% (HPPLT=33) when in the Multipurpose group, or always if you have changed your spellcast group to defensive (done manually or with a macro) and you have a party greater than 1 person. If you're in the default group (called DRG), then the spellcast is programmed to do absolutely nothing with equipment when magic is used.

As for the WS part, I'd try changing the equip line from <equip set="%spell" /> to <equip when="precast" set="%spell" />

[TacoTaru]

Will this work like I'm hoping it to or am I way off?

You're missing <equip> from those AF/Relic hand lines. You may wish to just add the SA/TA lines after the WS lines since that works the same and produces less lag.

[TacoTaru]

Bleh. Yeah I have rules for SATA already that work, I was just wondering if there was an easier way to do it for WS since it doesn't seem to like to swap out of my gear after the WS goes off.
