Cool, been wanting to try macros
just need to be able to get in and play to try them

Doesn't work... : (

[evilsohn]

depends how complex you want them to be. a simple one would be -

/clap motion
/me applauds your stupidity

which results in me clapping and the text: Rena Yuki applauds your stupidity

Just wondering if the /me ever worked for you, because for me it did the me emote instead.
I had to type /em for custom emotes.

I tried it like this:

<Name> Fast Travel
/macroicon "Jump"
/ac "Company Chocobo" <me>
/ac "Sprint" <me>

And I dont get an error, but it will only use sprint (and doesnt use the icon from "Jump"). My guess is perhaps it doesnt count Mounts as an action, but as something else perhaps.

From what I see, macro's are not connected for Pets/Mounts/Companions/(maybe Minions) right now.
