Help with a general macro.

[TuKiNaLL4s]

Hello, this is one of my first posts here. I was reading in the 'macro guide' post. I two box, and want an easy way to accept quests for my second character without having to grab the mouse, click the quest, etc.

I found this:

Accept Scripts (Steph/Latency):

/script AcceptGroup();
/script AcceptQuest();
/script AcceptTrade();
/script RetrieveCorpse();
/script RepopMe();

How do you get the accept quest one to work? I'm sure it isn't that simple as just putting that. Please help, I want someone to elaborate on that for me please.

When you "share" the quest on your main, just hit the key bound to this macro. It'll "accept" it.

I'm still lost, I use CTMOD to bind everything onto my other character. I would put this into my second character correct? Into the /macro

So it would be:

/script AcceptQuest(g); (G is the key its bound too, hypothetical)

I would share it on my main, and than press G to accept it on my secondary. Correct?

Go into macros. Make a new macro and enter:

/script acceptquest();

Drag that macrobutton down to your actionbar, and bind the actionbarbutton to the G key on your clone. On your main take any quest as normal, hit the share quest button in the questlog, then hit G key on your clone.

Hmm, actually I just tested this and it doesn't work. Do I need keyclone for this?

can you explain exactly what you are doing?

you should be doing the following

type: /macro

click Create new macro - give it a name and choose an Icon... click OK
add the macro text (CASE SENSITIVE)
[code:1]/script AcceptGroup();
/script AcceptQuest();
/script AcceptTrade();
/script RetrieveCorpse();
/script RepopMe(); [/code:1]

Drag the icon for the macro onto your action bar

When your chars are all grouped together... share a quest (open quest log, select a quest and press the share button)

press the action button for your new macro.

note any yellow (default colour) text that is shown in your chat text to explain why it might have failed.

Here is exactly what I did. Logged onto my character.

Typed /macro

Once in there, I will select any icon and name it anything.

Now I type in /script acceptquest(); EXACTLY like that (I just copied/pasted) from here. I drag that to my action bar, accept a SHAREABLE quest on my Main, click on that button on my secondary character and nothing happens.
