Title: Macro Help
Post by: Darkling on December 20, 2006, 01:03:58 PM
Ok, this is killing me. I know I said I give up on macros, however, I would like to display something funny when I use Cheap Shot, Kidney Shot, etc. If anyone can point me in the right direction (i.e. instructional website, etc.) I would greatly appreciate it.

Here is how you would make a macro for that TB:

1) Open the macro window and create a new macro with the same icon as the spell you are going to cast.  (if you want it to look the same)

2) Use this for your macro -

/cast Cheap Shot
/say "Cheap Shot Sucka!"

3) replace your Cheap Shot Icon (or whatever spell you're using) with the icon you just made for this macro.  now whenever you hit your Cheap Shot button, it will cast Cheap Shot and say "Cheap Shot Sucka!" or whatever witty comment you choose to make.

Macro Notes:

- replace Cheap Shot with whatever spell you want to cast (it will pick the highest rank spell with that name)
- replace say with /w or /bg or /raid for whatever kind of tell you want to use
- you can use %t to use that target's name in the macro.  for example, if you are targeting someone named Dylon*:

/say "%t takes TB's Cheap Shot"
would say "Dylon takes TB's Cheap Shot"
/w "You like that huh %t?"
would whisper to Dylon "You like that huh Dylon?"

This macro guide on the WOW forums is a big help too:
