    Gaming Keyboard, making macros?

    I new to this whole macor gaming world but I just bought a gaming keyboard with raised macro buttons. I've done pretty good so far in game making my own macros but now I would like to step it up to the next level. Im having issue getting the macros on the keyboard to work so Im just curious is FFIXV compatiable with macor buttons /and or am I not setting up the macors the right way. Any help would be great guys thanks.

    If a keyboard macro isnt working it has nothing to do with game compatibility. Check the kbd manual.

    You need to put in a delay (through the keyboard software, not in the actual macro). There's lag between the keyboard and the client, so if the command line is pumped into the client at full speed, some characters are skipped, thus rendering the command incoherent causing it to fail. Trial and error, man.

    Is it not against the Rules/ToS to use macro's that are not in-game.

    aka keyboard macros?

    No they're fine; use macros for tanking all time for several mmo's.

    2.1 Cheating and Botting. You may not create or use any unauthorized cheats, bots, automation software, hacks, mods or any other unauthorized software or hardware designed to modify the Game and gameplay. In addition, you may not take advantage of game system bugs and exploits during gameplay.

    So AS long as you have to press something to do action, its ok to use it.
    anyway you can create macros ingame http://erals.guildwork.com/forum/thr...ith-extra-fish - for example cast specific spell on marked enemy (without being targeted) and so...

    Seems a bit of a grey area, as I'd have thought it counted as "automation software"?
