Salutations,
in eqclient.ini, there is a way to turn on running, so it starts on... do that and just keep it on run...

Well I would like to turn on/off inside a macro depending on the state. The reason I would like this is when using the Walk subroutine (from the real nifty Macrokit) inside tight areas (like in buildings) it has a tendency to get stuck in walls when running. But if I'm walking it works ok since the character is moving slower.

I know I can just turn walk on in those area, but the problem is that sometimes I start the macro in the wrong state, ie walking instead of running. This is mainly due because I was testing the macro and ended it prematurely and forgot to turn run back on. So the macro starts of with the character walking instead of running; and when it gets to the tight areas it switches to running, and gets all messed up.

So what I would like to do is at the beginning of the macro, ensure it is in the correct state, but I would need a way to check for this.

thanks for listening.

I reckon its possible to do as at some point the client changes the sound you make from walking to running. Finding the offset might be a little trick though and i have no idea how to find new offsets, finding existing ones in a new eqgame.exe is about as much hacking as I can do at the moment.
