more macros

I'm out of macros (char specific and general). While it's not killing me (some could be replaced w/ mods), I'd like more. All these macros do some sequence of actions or rely on conditionals in an interesting way. Am I stuck?

I fail to read, and therefore fail the thread. I blame the heat.

That's not what the OP was looking for. The problem is lack of slots for new macros in his collection.

Pre 2.0 there were some that did this (extended the character limit for macros and allowed more macros per character). One was called SuperMacro.

Some were updated for 2.0 and even more recently, but I have not found one that is bug-free or that I would recommend for use. I tried SuperMacro a couple weeks ago to make macos for our Magtheridon cube assignments (SuperMacro v4.03) and while I did get it to eventually work, it was still very buggy, clunky, and unreliable.

If you are desperate you can probably get it to do what you want.

I used SuperMacro for our guilds Magtheridon macros, and, let me say, it is one buggy mod. The biggest problem I had with it was when you would move the macro to your bars, the UI would think you still had the macro held by the mouse and if you clicked on abilities, it would start overwriting them.

To fix that -after I placed the macro on the bar- I just pressed escape a LOT, logged out, logged back in, and keybound my macro, which solves the problem of the UI thinking you still have the macro bound to your mouse.

Other than that, and the fact that the multi-line lua macros do not work (with the -------- syntax) everything else seems to work fine.

When you need more space in your macros, just make an addon with slash-commands which call the functions you want. Then just put your slash-commands into your macros.

I think for anouncing macros this could be very helpful.
