I've got just about every other type of macro setup mastered, but have no idea how to setup a macro to change 'quips on the fly. Figured I'd ask here in our happy lil' server community since I'll be playing with y'all, so it'll help us all to PT together better.
yeah, it's a weak attempt at peer pressure, but work with me here Smiley: grin

Please help out a clueless Elvaan Smiley: bowdown
How exactly do I change between, say, my normal Great Bow +1 w/ Horn Arrows and a crossbow w/ Sleep Bolts, or RSE armor to Noct gear??

Some I use:

Main Weapon --> \equip main "Dark Staff"
Sub --> \equip sub "Strike Shield"
Ranged --> \equip ranged "Self Bow" Guessing on this one ^^
Ammo --> \equip ammo "Bone Arrow"
Body Armor --> \equip body "Holy Breastplate"

etc, you get the idea. Try playing around with the names of the slots. Make sure you spell the item correctly, then tweak till you see the equips change ^^

Sweet, thanks ^^
I knew the general concept of what to do, but not the specific wording on the commands/equip slots.
Now to watch the minutes tick by 'til I can leave work n get home to try it out.

Edit: Just guessing on this since I haven't tried it out yet, but is the standard '\wait 1' line needed between each equip command, or can I stack the commands right on top of each other?

Those will come in handy at higher levels when you can get that CQP Arrow if you're windurstian :) Just make sure the macro for unlimited shot works before you use it, could accidentally fire 45000 cqp out the window ^^

>.< Yeah, burning that many CQP would make me cry

Hmm..I suppose once I get to that lvl, it won't be much of a problem to get thru Windy missions (I'm one of those stuck-up Sandy Elvaan everybody always complains about Smiley: tongue ) to get to the rank for those arrows. Right now I'm still drooling at the thought of being able to use my new bow w/ Scorpion arrows in 3k xp ^^
Lvl 40 is one of the main reasons for my renewed interest in equip change macros for my Ranger...40 BCNM w/ quick change to sleep bolts = a very good thing

Something I found out when trying to figure out the /equip command myself:

You can use ? to get usage information on any game command. For example, to figure out how to use /equip, type "/equip ?".

Neat hint, thanks ^.^ I'm guilty of being too busy killing things most of the time to find out all the little ins and outs of the menus/programs

BTW - Valcrist, I saw you in CN over the weekend...was laughing my *** off watching the slapping abuse that 'Tom' was getting there Smiley: grin

I switch between a healing set and a fighting set in between fights because I'm elvaan and I run out of mp so fast. The macros are as follow:

HEAL MACRO:
/heal
/equip Ring1 "Electrum Ring"
/equip Ring2 "Electrum Ring"
/equip Hands "Magna Guantlets"
/equip Feet "Magna Ledelsens"

FIGHT MACRO: (switch when max mp = base mp)

/equip Ring1 "Verve Ring"
/equip RIng2 "Verve Ring"
/equip Hands "I.M. Gauntles"
/equip Feet "I.M. Sabatons"

Hope this helps ^^
