donated an easy $10 for you all today.

Keep up the good work, or so I say.

obviously I didn't explain well enough. I've updated with each of the new *.zip files as they were released ... but I've had this problem with each different *.zip since 06/16/04.

Since the 06/16 patch my movement keys are messed up when using MQ2. ( and only then ... /unload and everything works fine )
Up arrow = move backward
Right Arrow = turn left
Left Arrow = strafe left.

etc.

Have there been other people with this problem?

I had a similar problem after Christmas and I think it was DKAA that figured out that I needed to remove the bmpwad8.s3d from my MQ2/release folder.

This is the MQ2-modified splash screen during load up , and it doesn't like computers that are running in 800x600 rez.

Give that a try.

Another huge THANKS going out to DKAA for the answer to this one...

...has to be a numeric compare.

well ... it's been working quite well this evening ... but I've found some "bugs" ... but I don't know why they're bugs. remeber this ? /echo after /doevents we now have PP=@PlatPieces, GP=@GoldPieces, SP=@SilverPieces and CP=@CopperPieces /varset Price @PlatPieces /varcat Price @GoldPiece...

Huzzah! It works .... and it wasn't all due to a (*&#(*& TYPO! /If $arg(8,"@merchtext")=="platinum" { /varset PlatPieces $arg(7,"@merchtext") /echo here I'm /varset PlatPieces $arg(7,"@merchtext") /If $arg(10,"@merchtext")=="gold" {...

Driftin,
as long as you keep your radius low -- I wouldn't worry too much about the targeting of too many mobs : but then you might miss some casters away from the fray. That balance is what you'll have to fine tune to your liking.

...back from lunch.


Hmmm, "Loop".

as in, "Hey, you're MISSING a loop!"

or, "obviously, the event is causing a loop."

Or, "I like fruit-loops"

Please, can I have another nudge :) ?

Alright ... have made quite a bit of headway on this macro -- but I'm getting tripped up back in this spot once again. Here is the "applicable" code as I see it: Wevil Doughbeard tells you, 'That'll be 6 platinum 3 gold 7 silver 2 copper for the iceball'. Wevil Doughbeard tells you, 'That'...

Fake-o code /selectitem LETTUCE merchant /delay 1s /varset COST_OF_ITEM $merchant(LETTUCE,cost) That's essentially what I would like -- to be able to drop the cost of the item into a variable. What format? Uh ... it could even be 4 variables for all I care ( PP, GP, SP, CP ) or an array for the diff...
