Thanks for the ongoing help with Macros. Will help us all I am sure.

Is it possible to macro system settings changes? I'd really like to disable and enable BGM (Only) as at times I want to listen to the music and others I don't. For example questing in a new area I'll leave it on but in an old dungeon re-run I'll hit play on my own tunes and knock off the game BGM.

I know I can do it manually, but it's a hassle considering how quickly I can flip between listening and not.

Kinda getting the gist of doing macros, but not fully yet. Can you please give and the setup you use for this. Thanks.

Can't speak for skies but I did something similar (was sick of targeting him manually):
/macroicon "Physick"
/ac "Physick" <pet>

I'm trying to set up a Macro for a Pg and i can figure out how to get more than one attack to work. Can anyone one help? I'm on the Ps3 Version of the game.

Make sure you're inserting the proper amount of /wait time. You can't do decimals so if you want 2 attacks back to back you'll need a /wait 3 on the line between them.

Lovely. I didn't know there were mouseover macros. Will make healing a lot easier!

I got a question and I hope you guys can help me with this:

I did some testes with my THM and it's weird because if I try to use a macro to launch 4 skills: Thunder > Fire > Fire > Blizzard, it works:

/ac "Thunder" <t>
/wait 2.6
/ac "Fire" <t>
/wait 2.6
/ac "Fire" <t>
/wait 2.6
/ac "Blizzard" <t>

But if I try the same macro, again with 4 skills, but a different setup: Thunder > Fire > Fire > Fire, it don't work anymore:

/ac "Thunder" <t>
/wait 2.6
/ac "Fire" <t>
/wait 2.6
/ac "Fire" <t>
/wait 2.6
/ac "Fire" <t>

Any idea?

Thanks!

Anyone able to disable errors? When you use /ac ability with no one targetted, you get an error in the chat.
