I know you can disable the error messages in the general tab... BUT

is there any way to disable the global error messages? And even worse the gloabal error sound... its annoying

[Raeletta]

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.

It is infact /macroicon
But it will only show the icon and the cooldown/combo effects on the hotbar, it doesn't shows the tooltip itself.
It must also be the first line of a macro, as well. Made extensive use of that on Arcanist, making a micro-hotbar for buffing/healing my pet without hunting for it

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

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.

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

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!

Thank you for this!

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.
