== New Guide ==

−

I recently revamped my macro guide on the UI & Macros forum and decided to post it here. I write my posts in HTML and then use a script to convert them to WoW forum format, so it was trivial to convert it to wiki as well. However, since it is just a dumb translation, there are some things that need tweaking (like internal links, and maybe it should be split into a couple different pages). I'll be paying attention to any changes made here and incorporate any content changes into my private copy and the posts on the forum. [[User:Cogwheel|Cogwheel]] 19:34, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

== Changes to passive voice ==

−

I undid the changes made by [[User:DaAznSaN|DaAznSaN]]. While I agree with some of the changes and will incorporate them into another edit, I find it strange that he purposefully reworded some phrases INTO the passive voice. [[User:Cogwheel|Cogwheel]] 14:18, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

−

== Combining options with , and / ==

−

The following (taken from the article) does not seem to be exact:

−

:''Note: "," combines options by boolean And; "/" combines by boolean Or; prefacing an option with "no" e.g. "nochanneling" from "channeling", negates it.''

−

It seems that "," works as a boolean And option separator, while "/" works as a boolean Or option '''argument''' separator.

−

Let's say I want a macro that uses the Hearthstone while not in combat; however, I want to be able to use it in certain combat situations (perhaps I'm an experienced PvP paladin ;) ), so I want to be able to use it if I hold down the Alt key, no matter my combat state. I could try the following:

−

:''/use [nocombat/modifier:alt] Hearthstone''

−

According to the wiki, that should mean "(No (Combat)) Or (Modifier)", but what it really does is "No (Combat Or Modifier)", and this is rejected by WoW with a message stating "Unknown option combat/modifier". This allows me to conclude that "/" cannot be used as a boolean Or on options themselves.

−

Now, let's say I want a macro that uses the Hearthstone only when I hold both Ctrl AND Alt. (Perhaps I don't trust my unl33t clicking skills and I'm afraid of using the macro accidentally, and 10 seconds isn't long enough for me to realize I'm hearthstoning accidentally. :P ) I could try the following:

−

:''/use [modifier:alt,ctrl] Hearthstone''

−

Well, it's pretty obvious it won't work, because "," separates options, not option arguments. So WoW rejects this with an "Unknown option ctrl" (that is, assuming I'm holding down Alt, otherwise the first condition is false and the rest of the conditions aren't even evaluated), which is expected.

−

I recommend modifying the article to reflect this different use between "," and "/": "," separates options with a boolean And, "/" separates option ''arguments'' (after a ":") with a boolean Or.

== Macro help ==

−

Hi can any one tell me if you can make a macro for a warrior to use execute but if the target HP isnt low enough use mortel strike? If so can you please tell me how?

−

You cannot get a macro to do something based on mob or player health/mana. :(

−

Try

−

/cast Execute[modifier:alt];Mortal Strike

−

This will cast execute if you press down alt; otherwise it will cast Mortal Strike

−

I was looking at the spell reflection macro and I was woundering if you could add something to it that would equip a 2h weapon or 1h weapon with a modifier? i think it would look something like this

−

/equip 2hweapon [modifier:ctrl]; 1h weapon [modifier:alt]

−

/cast [stance:1/2,equipped:Shields] Spell Reflection

−

/equip [noequipped:Shields] shield

−

Obviously changing 2hweapon,1h weapon and shield with there names. would this work? would check it my self but I`m away for a couple of weeks —The preceding [[WoWWiki:Signature|unsigned]] comment was added by {{User|Shuyin}}. 12:47, 10 May 2007 (EDT)

== Tracking Macro ==

−

How can I make a macro that, depending on if I have alt, shift or ctrl pressed down, swaps my Hunter Tracking between Track Herbs, Track Beasts and Track Humanoids? It would clean up my actionbars a whole lot. --[[User:Fragment|Fragment]] 20:40, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

−

Shouldn't be a problem after you read the basics.

−

/cast [modifier:alt] Track Herbs; [modifier:ctrl] ... ; Track Humanoid

−

Very simple, very useful, especially as a hunter. I found it's also quite useful when playing a druid in cat form to switch between the "standard" Track Humanoid and profession tracking (which when active will prevent Track Humanoid from automatically being cast when switching to cat form).

== Conjuring and Using ==

−

The other day before maintenance this macro worked:

−

/castsequence Conjure Mana Agate, Mana Agate

−

Now, it doesn't work. It simply doesn't respond without showing an error message. So I used this:

−

/cast [modifier:ctrl] Mana Agate; Conjure Mana Agate

−

But I was wondering if anyone could make a macro script that did something like Use the Mana Agate if it exists and cast Conjure Mana Agate if Mana Agate doesn't exist in my inventory. I'm not proficient in programming so you can imagine I tried to use something noobish like:

−

/cast [Mana Agate, exists] Mana Agate; [Mana Agate, noexists] Conjure Mana Agate

−

Please someone help me! =] -[[User:DaDragonChild|DaDragonChild]] 05:09, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

:In the future, ask questions here: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/board.html?forumId=11114&sid=1 However, no, I do not believe it will. Here's what I use on my mage;

Sadly, this is not possible. I would welcome the possibility to search the inventory for an item and to trigger macro actions depending on whether it exists or not.

−

--[[User:Lanfear|Lanfear]] 18:44, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

You can just do the following:

−

/use Mana Agate; /cast Conjure Mana Agate

== Changes in 2.2 ==

−

There seems to be a problem casting the first spell in your spellbook in the german version. Perhaps pther languages are affected too.

−

== Print problem relieved somewhat. ==

−

Added a after each line in boxes that exceeded the screen width. That should help with the horizontal scroll bar overlaying the bottom of the text.

−

In my opinion, this is a problem in wikia's software that it adds a scrollbar without adjusting the size of the box, making the last line nearly unreadable.

−

== Rogue Specific Conditions Macros ==

−

Hey, great article on macros, it really helped.

−

I was wondering a little more about the specific conditions macros. I have a rogue and i like to pop a +AP trinket, a Energy Regen skill and Slice and Dice(a combo point dependant finishing move, which speeds up attack speed). Its obviously best to do this when you have five combo point.

−

What would a macro look like that waited until I had five combo points?

−

Thanks, Sureptitious

−

:Macros cannot make intelligent decisions like that: There's no conditional that checks the number of combo points you have on a target. - [[User:Tuhljin|Tuhljin]] ([[User talk:Tuhljin|talk]]) 21:10, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

−

== Targeting ==

−

Does targeting work with aoe's? Isn't there any way for you to cast an aoe around your target or yourself without having to use the ground-targeting circle? -[[User:Cowlinator|Cowlinator]] ([[User talk:Cowlinator|talk]]) 18:54, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

−

== "This page is an archive" ==

−

The page opens with this statement: "This page is an archive of [http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=96143900&sid=1 Cogwheel's Complete Macro Guide] // An ''even more complete'' update may be found [http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=3881820910 here]."

−

Perhaps that's what this page once was and what it started as, but that's no longer the case. I and others apparently didn't notice this "it's an archive" statement and have been treating this as a normal freely-editable guide. It now contains things the original never did (and I'd say ought to include whatever "even more complete" things have been added to the guide it once mirrored, though maybe not word for word). Why would we be in the business of archiving old macro guides, anyway? ...

== group:party and group:raid ==

−

From the article:

−

group:party/raid

−

This lets you determine whether you are in the given group type. [group] is equivalent to [group:party]. [group:raid] implies [group:party].

−

This wording is a bit confusing to me. It is true that:

−

* If you use [group:raid] it will return TRUE if you are in a raid.

−

* If you use [group:party] it will return TRUE if you are in a group OR in a raid.

−

My point is that "beeing in a raid" implies "beeing in a party", but [group:raid] does not imply [group:party]. Using [group:raid] returns FALSE if you are in a group.--[[User:Tlund|tlund]] ([[User talk:Tlund|talk]]) 13:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

−

== target=target ==

−

Is that not realy senseless or deprecatet? I see this in many macros. --[[User:Olliminatore|Olliminatore]] ([[User talk:Olliminatore|talk]]) 14:13, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

−

: This tells the macro to only cast the specified spell on the target. It's usually used as a condition with other target=<unitid> entries. Like this, <code>/cast [mod:alt,target=player] Lesser Heal; [mod:ctrl,target=mouseover] Power Word: Shield; [target=target] Smite</code> {{user:egingell/Sig|d=17:47, 19 January 2009 (UTC)}}

−

:: This is the same as:

−

/cast [mod:alt,target=player] Lesser Heal; [mod:ctrl,target=mouseover] Power Word: Shield; Smite

−

:: Anyway, there's only one target=target in the page and I think it may be removed. --[[User:Hdante|Hdante]] ([[User talk:Hdante|talk]]) 17:57, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

−

::: I can see how it might be redundant, but there must be a reason why it's still there. On the other hand, macros silently fail in the case of an invalid conditional, so there's really no way to tell if this condition exists or not. {{user:egingell/Sig|d=18:53, 19 January 2009 (UTC)}}

−

== Warlock Backlash ==

−

Hi!

−

Is it possible to make a macro which simply casts Shadowbolt, but if Backlash buff is active, then stops casting the immediately casts Shadowbolt.
