Few minor flaws in schema, primarily on use of <action> instead of <equip>.

Code:

        <if BuffActive="Migawari">
            <equip when="idle|engaged|resting|precast|midcast|aftercast">
                <body>Iga ningi +2</body>
            </equip>
        </if>

        <if BuffActive="Futae">
            <equip when="idle|engaged|resting|precast|midcast|aftercast">
                <hands>Iga Tekko +2</hands>
            </equip>
        </if>

You'll probably want to lock those to prevent them from being overwritten later in the XML.

On the remainder, I don't see anything that should otherwise affect the equipping of your body. What tests have you done to be sure that the body is not actually equipped?

All <cmd> should be changed to <command>. Those were the only ones that came up as errors during the schema check, so I assume they're the only instances of that. Note that <var cmd="" /> is not the same thing; do not do a global search/replace of cmd/command, or you'll break your <var> commands.

The code originally had those locked and it was stilling happening. I took the lock out to see if that somehow caused the issue. As far as testing goes, I put on my PDT set, engaged a mob, and all equipment other than body changed. I WSed and all equipment changed other than body. I disengaged, and all equipment changed other than body.

Set the ShowGearSwaps to true, and examine the gear that Spellcast is trying to equip at each event.

Still getting the event spam. Upgarded to 2.51

**Yugl** · 2013-04-17 19:51

Try

Code:

<if status="event">
<return />
</if>

Place before every other rule.

Crashed zoning into Mog house

**Yugl** · 2013-04-17 20:10

That happened when you added that or even before then? Try adding "zoning" to the statuses.

Happened before as well.

Event|Zoning?

**Yugl** · 2013-04-17 20:37

Yeah, "Event|Zoning"

Still crashes on zone

Are you sure that's due to SC?

So, I just logged in and tested this, and my body was changing correctly. I took the ShowGearSwaps and set it back to false, and noticed my body model is now changing correctly. Somehow from logging off and logging in the next day it fixed it self. *shrug*

Yeah if I unload or change jobs I don't crash.

Got everything working.

Had to add "event" to 364,387,425 and everything works.

Complete!

You have an extra </set> on line 45. that's probably causing it.

That seems to have fixed it! <3!

What causes Spellcast to want to find a different group name than what's listed? Yesterday I sent my friend a BLM XML and it wanted group Main instead of group Standard, which is in all of my XMLs and the BLM is based off my SCH XML which uses standard and boots up fine. I only use one group so it's not a case of multiple groups causing the error. It also happened when I dropped my BRD XML on my wife's computer. It was literally the one I was using on my computer, but when she loaded it she got the error "Could not find group BRD". It's not a common occurrence and my Google-fu is bad and I can't find a way to fix it without changing the name of the group.

**Motenten** · 2013-04-19 13:47

That happens if you change the structure of the Spellcast file for a job without unloading Spellcast itself. For example, I have an experimental version of my whm Spellcast that uses entirely different groups than my normal version. If I try to load it in the same Spellcast session that my normal whm XML is used in, it fails with a group error message (the group being whatever was normally used in the prior XML).

To fix it, you have to unload Spellcast entirely, then reload it.
