Macaroon

did anyone get the /mac hidden <name> to do anything? I typed /mac hidden Bar 1 for my target, focusless bar, and it is still hidden

and there i was posting about macaroon in other threads. i am smrt.

hi, maul-acaroon. your add-ons are very sexy. my blood elf huntress wants to have your toons' babies. ALL of your toons. she's got plenty of stamina. =)

not only have i been using your stuff for ages, but now just about all of my wow'ing friends are on macaroon(even the ones that were a bit intimidated by trinity). you are officially expanding the parameters of sucka-mc amateurs.

forgive me if you've already posted this, but do you have a donation paypal address? as a game developer myself, i'm highly in favor of rewarding such efforts where clearly due. attaboys, kudos, and knob-polishing, oh my!

found it. prolly worth posting on your profile here too though, since mboxers tend to be both more appreciative than average and almost by definition rather frivolous with our money. =)

I have a question someone may be able to answer on Macaroon.

I am a long time user of Trinity, therefore setting up Macaroon came very naturally to me and I love it.

I am having one problem. I cannot work out how to setup one of my bars to show the appropriate button when you control something else like a zombie from the current world event. I thought this might work on the pet bar, however it does not. I single box on a mage and my pet bar for my water elemental works every time. Last night I was on my mage fighting KJ in the Nerfwell and I was assigned the dragon orbs. I had feared that the dragon control would not show up on my bars and I was right, I sat there in the dragon whilst appolagising to everyone on Vent for wiping the raid. I had to restore default blizz bars to continue the raid and although I like retro, I love my macaroon.

Does anyone know of a setting I am missing for this?

EDIT: I just found the answer to my problem. "Posess" anyways ignore this post :)

Thanks

started using Macaroon and loving the way that it works, but I have found a bug with the bags bar, if I turn on Snapto ? (think that's the option) and stick it to the Menu bar it doesn't stay after log off, it ends up in the middle of the screen, I have been able to put the bag bar on my screen and it does stay there after log off but if I join it to the Menu bar it's back in the middle of the screen again :(

ok I know I should log this at wowinterface but creating an account just for this would be a pain, sorry Maul :P

Are you using the latest version?

not sure what version i have as I am at work at the moment and I'm blocked from wowinterface until I get home, will check after work tonite.

ok I am using version beta 22.12 and have just downloaded RC 27.4 and will give that a go and let you know ^^

looks like the bug was squashed in the current version, thanks Maul :thumbsup:

Is there some kind of guide or howto on setting up Macaroon? It looks like a pretty useful addon but I'm struggling to work out how to configure it.

Currently I use default Blizzard bars with /cast [target=focustarget] ability macros for every ability. I'd like to eliminate the need for all these macros if possible.

EDIT: Actually I use the focustarget macros for my shammies. For my hunters I use /target [target=focustarget]; /cast ability macros. Can those also be eliminated with the help of Macaroon?

#22 Post should explain it

Well I just started using Macaroon (from dominos) and its looking great.

Im not using the advanced stuff myself but to clear up some confusion just think of bar in which you set the targeting for as rewriting your macros to put the targeting of the bar into the macro you drop into it.

So you basically write macros without targets and then drop them into whatever bar (which has targeting set for it) and the macro gets auto-rewritten to match that bar.

So you write a macro "/cast nuke"

If you have two bars, one which the target is focus and one which the target is assist leader you drop this same macro into each bar and it writes the target line for you depending on which bar it is.

Then you can have many diffent targeting bars, which can fade in and out as needed if you wish. If your leader is alive you might have the assist leader bar be visable and the others faded. If the leader dies you can have a bar pop up which has "/assist toon2" as its target (you can customize the targets as you wish). I think you can fade them in and out like that, not sure.

This saves a lot of time in writing macros as you just need to change the "/cast nuke" to "/cast other nuke" and you dont have to rewite every individual macro (I dont think you have to redrop them into bars but maybe you do). Basically once you set up your bars you never have to put in targeting infomations with macros.

Obviously you can do a lot and with the ability to save profiles you dont have to write stuff for each toon.

All and all better then dominos ...

I'm Sam DeathWalker and I approve of this Product.


Ok you make a bar with this targeting stuffs:

/target [target=toona,nodead]; [target=toonb,nodead]; [target=toonc,nodead]; [target=toond,nodead]; [target=toone,nodead]
/assist

And you won't have to retype that all the time, and you have a single bar where if your "mainbrain" leader dies you can go to the next alive as the targeter.


Here is modifier for using right click to cast on urself:

Quote:

button:1/2/.../5/<virtual click>
Similar to [modifier], [button] allows your macro to respond differently based on which mouse button is being used to activate the macro. Button numbers 1-5 correspond to left, right, middle, button 4, and button 5. If your macro is activated by a keybinding, [button:1] will always be true. As an example, here is the macro I use for mounting:

#show Swift Green Mechanostrider
/userandom [nobutton:2, flyable, nomounted] Ebon Gryphon; [nomounted] Black Battlestrider, Swift Green Mechanostrider
/dismount [noflying] [button:2]
Behavior when not mounted: left-clicking will pick Ebon Gryphon if it can be used (flyable), otherwise it will randomly pick the Black Battlestrider or the Swift Green Mechanostrider. Right-clicking will always pick one of the mechachickens.

like this:

/Target toona
/cast [button:2, target=player] [] Healing Wave

Point being you can make a bar that lets you right click on things to cast them onyourself, otherwise they use the target or assist you have set.


Put them together you have a heal button that will Heal your main (or 2nd if he dead) (or 3rd if first two dead, or yourself if all 3 others is dead) if you click on it or heal yourself if you right click on it!


/target [target=toona,nodead]; [target=toonb,nodead]; [target=toonc,nodead]; [target=player]
/cast [button:2, target=player] [] Healing Wave

HOLY THREAD NECRO BATMAN

Maul, WRU?

Someone was kind enough to update the main lua file to be 3.0.8 compliant, but your extras are only kinda working. I hope you're not in a diabetic coma from all those Coke's people bought you.

Lets keep this mod going, it's too good to let go.

Hi guys, wicked/awesome/uber addon!

Excuse the noob question, however I have searched many a forum in search of such a basic answer. Maybe I missed something/several things.

Basically, I play warrior. Stances. I have managed to configure my main left action bar to be my stance bar. It successfully cycles through my desired stance buttons as I change stances (yay).

HOWEVER: I would like to be able to use one keybind for a different button in each stance. I.E. in slot "1" i want it to be bound to Hamstring in Battle Stance, Heroic Strike in Berserker Stance, and Revenge in Defensive Stance. How do I do this? It seems I can only bind spells to keys. Not button slots to keys...

As i am noob, i will need a noob-friendly response please :D


****EDIT****

Figured out how to do it. Really basic. Type /mac bind and then mouse over the buttons u want to bind and bind it to the corresponding key!

Another problem has surfaced >_<

All went well whilst dragging abilities from my spellbook onto my stance bars. however when I tried to drag them to my berserker stance, It wouldnt let me drop them onto the bar? Almost like the bar was locked or something? it worked fine for battle/defensive stances.. I checked all the configs for the zerker stance bar, and they are exactly the same as the other two bars. Why is this one locked and wont let me drop spells onto it?!?



Thanks in advance!

Dumb question, but do you have buttons added for that stance?

try to edit the buttons and see if it got changed to an action tag or something else. if so click the button while in edit mode until it turns back to macro.

Ok is there an actual tutorial like hotkeynet and keyclone had lol. I got it up but having macros and bindings issues trying to figure out how to do what. Just wonder if theres a nice tutorial to get me going.

Ok slowly but surely im working through it. Couple questions for whoever does use macaroon. 1. how do you bring up your bags and key chain bar 2. how do you bring up your computer and character bar.
I guess im gonna stick to focus based since i am using the original ui mini map but not the action bars.

They are part of it, you just need to have it turned on to let the addon handle them

Ok and how is that ill link picture of what mine looks like now. But like your saying i cannot find the bag slot and stuff.

Like i mentioned i got all the stuff to work out putting in the macros and all and binding them to keys which allowed me to reset to defaults thank god lol. Just need to find my baggies and make a spot for them. Thanks for any help. One more thing i want to change the look of my character icon is there a addon to do this without messing everything else up.

Ok update realized i needed another addon for the bags got that wewt.

After awhile of messing around and getting use to what to do on here, here is the finished product of using macaroon and recount and jamba. Nice and cleane with plenty o button space with the consolidating ive been doing.
