Constanly haviny red lines with PctHPs and Groupmember,

I went back to the 3/4/05 version of MQ2. The error spam with the 3/07/05 version was driving me batty

Well lots of macro will start having those kinds of problems ...

Their was a major change in group TLO in last updates ... passed few hours to fix out my healing macro, and my custum ui and huds...


group[#].PctHPs --> group.member[#].Spawn.PctHPs
group[#].ID --> group.member[#].Spawn.ID
group[#].Distance -> group.member[#].Spawn.Distance

Well still need to verify case ... but thats what will need to be touched!

Sorc , changing .ID to .Spawn.ID still gave rrors.'
Changing it back just just .ID made at least afcleric work again

ok, after lots and lots of testing changing everything you said sorc gets rid of error messages, but he does not heal anyone in the group at all. just self and tank.

must be something with case or something i'm missing

Here is what worked for me using notepad-

find - ${Group[${gmember}].
replace with - ${group.member[${gmember}].Spawn.

Have not tested within a group yet, just let a mob beat on me till it started casting and then interupted, then memmed new spell as expected..

-edit- tested in group and works just fine. Also, the above method assumes using a global find and replace, not just replacing the first instance.

Well i was just pointing out what you should look, ya it maybe case sensitive ... im still updating every macro / ui pieces that i have that was using old method ...

In my macros, I had to use Group.Member[....].Spawn

It was case sensitive for me, the Member had to be M not m...

If Divine Barrier is not ready but Divine Aura is, make it cast Divine Aura =)

I sometimes mem both divines.

Ok, after hours of poking around with this, think I got it pinned down

following the various post on a couple threads I used find/replace and changed
to the error messages stopped and off to farming I went...... bout an hour into farming light blues for tradeskill parts... "ACK, it's not healing the damn group!!" it's only healing the "Tank" and self... so back into the code we go, this is loads of fun for someone who's programming skills are 12ish years rusty...

Ok, so apparently it's not watching the group members health... and there it is
So I do a find of and look for places that are using number of people in group counts and replace that with And WALLA!! everything appears to be working now.... Don't know if it is the "proper" way to handle it, but used 2 converted versions of AFCleric.mac under heavy stress for about an hour and didn't run into any other problems.

Hopes this helps anyone having trouble with fixing this!!

Lrd - I tried doing that with mine, and it stopped endless spam. But I'm still getting -

"No such int" in red about 10 times, then a failure to parse messege or something. Friends are saying it's working fine on their computers. Any idea what I'm doing wrong. Did a search and couldn't find anything specific.

Then you aren't using latest and greatest. Redownload MQ2, clean it all, recompile, rerun it. Do full clean & build or rebuild, not just a build!

Try then. The non such 'int' member stuff was fixed.

htw

Yeah I tried that, I'm still getting the same problems. Am I cutting / pasting the right code? Just so you know

I'm taking the code from the 1st page of this thread, copying and pasting into a .mac file in the Macro folder of the Release folder of MQ2. I also put the spell_routines.inc or whatever it is in the same folder. Still getting massive errors though.

1st page doesn't have the changes posted above.

Well is this macro just dead then or what... instead of just saying thats not the right one, you could say that's not, this is?
