After updating my includes to current I now keep getting this error (on any job I try to change to for some reason?)
Gearswap: Lua error (runtime)- ... files (x86)Windower4/addons/Gearswap/data/PUP.lua:30: attempt to call global 'binds_on_unload' (a nil value) You're using a version of Motenten's files that aren't fully updated.

I just started using GearSwap without previous knowledge of Spellcast or Windower macros. So far was able to incorporate a working TP set, WS set and Idle set to my gameplay by adjusting one of the beta xml's that came with the addon. I'm quite pleased by the results.
Next i'd like to add different kinds of TP and Idle sets. So far I have 2 different working TP sets (PDT and MDT) that i can swap into by using a macro with /console gs equip, but every time after performing any action that would swap my gear out, my tp set goes back back to the default TP set. I'm now wondering how to override the default TP or Idle set with a different one, but i have not found a way to do this. Could anybody direct me to any source of information that would help me or explain to me how to do this? Thanks in advance and much appreciation to everyone involved in GearSwap's development and support. tavera said: » I just started using GearSwap without previous knowledge of Spellcast or Windower macros.

can anyone help me out >_< i'm working on the part to check whether is the day for mekira proc, been trying to make it work for hours but no luck, guess i'm doing it wrong:

It should also be world.day instead of word.day. And yeah, you're not equipping it.

Is there a tutorial for Gearswap that can help me understand the reasoning behind different lines of code?
I'd like to understand it to the point where I can write my own Lua instead of copying someone else's and just pasting in my gear from spellcast. However, I have no knowledge or understanding of Lua or any other programming language for that matter. Does anyone have a Gearswap Lua with comments that explain what each line of code is doing? Or would anyone be willing to do this for other people like myself? Offline

By reading the forums i figured part of the code within my file would allow me to cycle through the different TP sets by typing //gs c toggle TP set And it's working perfectly.
I have two questions though: Is it possible to go straight to a specific set instead of having to cycle through all of them until i get to the one i want? By performing a toggle while i'm in idle mode, this code is swapping out my idle gear in place for the TP sets i'm cycling through. Would it be possible to toggle my default TP set without having my idle set removed? Here is the code: Code function self_command(command) if command == 'toggle TP set' then TP_Index = TP_Index +1 if TP_Index > #TP_Set_Names then TP_Index = 1 end send_command('@input /echo ----- TP Set changed to '..TP_Set_Names[TP_Index]..' -----') equip(sets.TP[TP_Set_Names[TP_Index]]) elseif command == 'toggle Idle set' then Idle_Index = Idle_Index +1 if Idle_Index > #Idle_Set_Names then Idle_Index = 1 end send_command('@input /echo ----- Idle Set changed to '..Idle_Set_Names[Idle_Index]..' -----') equip(sets.Idle[Idle_Set_Names[Idle_Index]]) end end Thanks so much for any information provided. tavera said: » By reading the forums i figured part of the code within my file would allow me to cycle through the different TP sets by typing //gs c toggle TP set And it's working perfectly.

For the second question, instead of "equip(sets.TP[TP_Set_Names[TP_Index]])" put gearswap equivalent of if engaged then equip tp set else equip idle set with the else being optional, since you're not changing idle set in that command.

Thanks again for your reply.

Instead of rewriting those lines, I'd suggest calling status_change(player.status), where all of that stuff should be already. Offline

Do you mean this part of the code?:
Code function status_change(new,old) if T{'Idle','Resting'}:contains(new) then equip(sets.Idle[Idle_Set_Names[Idle_Index]]) elseif new == 'Engaged' then equip(sets.TP[TP_Set_Names[TP_Index]]) end end How would i go about doing what you suggest? Also, would this part of code allow me to do what i asked before? To make a specific TP set the default TP set without going through the toggle, as Sharain suggested? Code function self_command(command) if command == 'PDT' then TP_Index = 'PDT' equip(sets.TP[TP_Set_Names[PDT]]) end end Sylph.Peldin said: » Is there a tutorial for Gearswap that can help me understand the reasoning behind different lines of code?

No, if you are going with what the default example Lua files had, TP_Index is supposed to be a number. Most likely, your PDT set's index is "2" (i.e. it is the second option listed in the TP_Set_Names table).

I have the new include and other files and the command :
//gs c cycle "Modes" (offense defense ...) dont work anymore (since Monday). No message on console. I use rng lua and i have a problem with precast snpashot. I see gear change, i check the delay for shot, and i dont see difference vs no snpashot gear (i have all snpashot gear available). Using spellcast i count something like 1 sec less than no gear, but not difference using gearswap. Can someone help me? Anarkus had similar problem.. then realized requires a sidecar for gear swaps. Pull this as a .lua edit ur gears and should be good.
Note: save as RNG_gear.lua http://pastebin.com/ErktirjE Offline

strange i dont use sidecar files (not obligatory and my mnk work without)
All swap work on rng, WS tp , but i dont see difference with precast and without precast using gearswap when i see one using spellcast. And i see the swap for precast, so he change gear but its like it dont have "effect". Will test sidecar but idk yeah i was getting exact same thing. It would look like I was swapping and chances are u are using same .lua I am.. in which I assure u .. pull RNG_gear.lua and use that for ur armor and works perfectly fine.. good luck =)
@Anarkus:
If you're using mine, enter: //gs c showset precast That will stop all equips at the precast level, so it won't equip midcast/aftercast, and let you see exactly what's being equipped at that stage. You can turn it off with //gs c showset off Also, you said stuff stopped working. There was a significant update about a week ago, dealing with how Gearswap loads includes. You need to make sure to update -all- Mote-* files after that, or things will be broken. I've had a couple people say they have the "new" files, but haven't actually updated in a couple weeks. I've been putting out new updates pretty much every day for the last month. @Flippant: It's a generic tutorial starting from the ground up, and dealing with things that I see trips a lot of people up, or that I often see done poorly when people write their own. Right now it's a bit stuck trying to find a logical progression of advancement from the most basic stuff to the more intermediate. Feel free to suggest anything you think would be helpful to include.

Ty all work now for rng,
Something have change with //gs c cycle ???? Something with key bind? I update again all mote file today but //gs c cycle offensemode dont react. Not so important as precast but if someone know what i did wrong?

Right now it's a bit stuck trying to find a logical progression of advancement from the most basic stuff to the more intermediate. Feel free to suggest anything you think would be helpful to include. Not sure what you cover as basic or intermediate, but I think the biggest problem people have is using the tools they learn to create a complete and solid flow. So I think after covering the basics--or intermediates, whatever is appropriate--you should show a step-by-step on how you, yourself, use exactly what you talked about in the guide to build something more advanced, like a complete GearSwap file (even if it may be relatively simple). The goal for them at the end shouldn't be that they can then create something from scratch with nothing but their memory, but they can read and understand the control flow and simple concepts in a GS file and, based on this, learn how to eventually play with it and adapt it into their own code. Expanding their knowledge to do more than a basic GearSwap probably isn't even something you would need to cover because if they feel comfortable enough and want to go further, they should be able to read and learn straight from most code at that point (using Google for Lua's libraries as necessary).

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. As it is, it works perfectly and i'm able to do 95% of the things i wanted it to do. Until i learn how to add variables for different situations and buffs, it is finished. Next on my list is whm. For this i went to Gearswap Shop Thread at BG and found a file with the next lines: Code -- IMPORTANT: Make sure to also get the Mote-Include.lua file (and its supplementary files) to go with this. -- Initialization function for this job file. function get_sets() -- Load and initialize the include file. include('Mote-Include.lua') end -- Called when this job file is unloaded (eg: job change) function file_unload() if binds_on_unload then binds_on_unload() end end Honestly, i'm not sure how to work with this. I have a few questions for whoever would be kind enough to help out. -Am i supposed to have this other file in my data folder? -Which are the "supplementary files", and what should i do with them? -What exactly are these files for? Thanks in advance. Edit: figured out the first 2 questions. Carbuncle.Anesthesia

Question.
How can I get gearswap to differentiate between items based on augments? Let's say I have two dark rings with PDT +5 and two dark rings with MDT +5. How could I tell gearswap to equip the PDTs for my PDT set and my MDTs for my MDT set? Code set.PDT = {ring1={name="Dark Ring",augment="Physical Damage Taken -5%"},ring2={name="Dark Ring",augment="Physical Damage Taken -5%"}} set.PDT = {ring1={name="Dark Ring",augment="Magical Damage Taken -5%"},ring2={name="Dark Ring",augment="Magical Damage Taken -5%"}} ^ That should work, I think.

Hi, I am using Motentens Gearswap.lua for SMN. I'm encountering a very small issue. Using his shortcuts, none of my bloodpacts are firing.
For example in my macro I have: /console gs c pact buffOffense in my chatlog it shows: >> /pet "Rolling Thunder" Seems like there may be an underlying target missing? I'm new to this. I really am stumped :( FYI: It's happening on all my ward/rage pacts for shortcuts. Siphon seems to work as intended. Thanks for reading. |
