Macros

Well, I see some people are discussing/sharing macros, and I think that's a good thing. Nobody likes the tedium of clicking, and not everyone has the ability to write good macros/scripts to handle that while they are there.

REMEMBER - it is ILLEGAL to go afk while macroing. If a eGenesis staff member catches you, you could be banned for breaking the terms of service.

With that in mind, let's make this a normal page of the wiki.

Carpentery Blades (Autohotkey) - (1024x768 only) Make 7.1k-7.2k blades in 10 seconds. Many automated functions, via hotkeys, during script. Extremely simple and repeats previously confirmed successful blades with a single click. No need to find the same mouse coordinates over and over! It will even automatically double F8, zoom in for you...

Crematory (Actools) - Crematory script, preconfigured to various guilds' crematories. Can be changed to your work on yours. The resolution that it will worked on can also be changed. Currently configured at (1024x768)

Get Mouse Position and Color (Autohotkey) - If you write AHK scripts, then this a great helper. Displays a tooltip as you move mouse around. Shows the current mouse position and color. Press F2 to copy results into clipboard.

Auto Grass (Autohotkey): Enter amount of grass to collect. Automatically walks around in a circle and collects grass without moving too far from where you started. Great to get your Rhythmic Strength skill up.

Unlimited Wheat Beds (Autohotkey) - Point and middle click all your wheat beds. Then it will cycle, every 4s, and hover each bed and hit the [W]ater and [H]arvest (H+W key) over each one.

Plane Boards (Autohotkey) - Point and middle click all your carpentry benches. Then it will cycle through and hover each one and hit the [P]lane Boards (P key) over each one very quickly. The more benches you have, the faster you will plane your entire inventory of wood.

Fishing (Autohotkey) - Point and middle click your fishing icon location and it will ask for how many casts you want to make and fish every 15s until completed.

Bricks (Autohotkey) - Asks what kind of bricks you are making. Point and middle click all your racks. Will Load racks, wait until done and Unload racks, repeat until stopped.

6 Kettle Potash (Autohotkey) - Runs 6 kettles perfectly (1024x768). Will run less than 6 kettles (if you manually clear out popup dialogues). Will likely work on any stoked kettle project if you change "Click Potash" coordinates.

Malting Trays (Autohotkey) - Point and middle click all your trays. Will send the [M]alt Barley key over each one, wait until done and [T]ake your malt. Repeat until stopped.


Ghostmouse (Windows Executable) - Simple old freeware program that records your mouse movements/clicks. Can adjust the speed with a click in Options, if necessary. Records in real time, no scripts to edit, easy for anyone to use. Program no longer made or supported, found in old archived backup CD. (Screenshot)

Personally I like autohotkey because it's freeware and is still being updated - Blogot

I second the Autohotkey recommendation, it has some extremely powerful features but is still fast and lightweight, and new features are being added all the time. - Dragyn

Personally I like AutoIt 3.0 it is freeware updated alot and it is very powerful allows macroing of almost anything windows - Ledeanna

I second the AutoIt recommendation, it is very powerful as well, easy to code and allows compiling the scripts for use by people who want to macro but feel not competent enough to write their own or who dont want to install the scripting software. ~Anguz - Note - AutoHotKey also allows you to compile an exe for machines with out AHK installed. ~Jhnny

I love actool because it's the best out of all of them. - Soak

Actool does not seem to work on vista 32 bit - goes mad... - daninicholls

ACTool works fine on vista 64 bit on my machine - could be our different setups - AnarchyRising 07:05, 14 January 2009 (EST)

Im having trouble as well with ACtool on Vista 32bit - LOKY

Been using ACTool since 2006. Back then was running Windows XP but I am not runnning Vista 32bit Home Premium and I am not having troubles with it. - Tribisha

Added SCAR Divi, its similar to ACtool, but in my opinion much better. It has very nice support for Bitmap searching, and even Bitmask searching. The bitmaps can be converted to strings, and loaded directly in from the script (Rather then saved as images). Lots of other features, but people will have to find them. SCAR also supports bitmap masks, and Deformable template models, which allows the macro to find and identify multiple images, or peices of text, even when the colours, position, or even size has changed. Its possible to make fairly advanced macros that will work regardless of window positions ingame, or resolution.--Kinslayer 08:32, 29 August 2009 (EST)
