[Program] WoW Lua Enabler

[Tromball]

You could make a nice bot with this :P

the way i remember casting multiple spells was to make a macro that would use somethign like the following using chronos or equivalent addon...there was one called moo something back when the game came out the incoprated a /wait [sec] command

say on bind 1 of action bar one you would have this macro
/cast spell
/in x sec
/actionbar 1 button 2

so on and so forth

i do not remember it exactly as it was a long long time ago...but it worked very much like this and allowed a player to cast nonstop...i suppose with this app it is possible to do this again....i may be wrong...but it is worth researchin if you are interested in automation....or just go get innerspace, hotkeynet, or a g15 keyboard which do the same exact thing without the stored on blizzard server macros.

bah sorry seems today i run myself in circles with every thought i have....

sorry but what does it do xD

I get that this allows certain LUA actions to be used that are normally blocked, but how can this be helpful for anything besides making a bot that runs in wow?

For example, as a hunter, is there anything this can do for me to make my life raiding or pvping easyer?

You could probably make yourself a simple macro that would dps perfectly. No human error, lag accounted for etc. Could afk on bosses and still do well. However, that kinda defeats the purpose of the game.

So its great and all you unlocked these lua functions and such, but a little more on the matter is needed. I have this program and don't know what to do with it. I realize that some people aren't as "intellectually intelligent" as some on these forums... but for the n00bs.... could we get some more clarity?! EXAMPLES instead of "well you could do this... and that..."

EXPLAIN HOW! Write up a tutorial so people can use their imaginations...

I posted a link to every single function this unlocks, go look for yourself.

The /in command is not a WoW command. It's an extra slash command from certain mods. (I forget exactly which. Might be a action bar mod.)

Ah. I've got dominos, that might be it. I'll look through it when I have some time, and see what I can figure out.

Alright so I think a lot of people are overlooking some MAJOR things here! However I'm absolutely no pro in this area as i've never even so much as glanced at LUA, nor have I bothered to learn stuff about macros, and of course I havn't written an addon......So in saying that this could be completely wrong.

There are craploads of addons out there, my thinking is that a lot of addons out there are made to prompt the user to do something/remember to do something.

E.g!!! 'Scrolling Combat Text' is a very popular addon that alerts the user of certain combat events, for example as a warrior I have noticed it will tell me when to use 'execute', 'overpower', even 'slam' if I have the talent that allows instant 'slam'. So if you have all the lua functions unlocked, doesn't this mean, instead of writing an entirely new fancy pants addon, that all you'd have to do is simply modify this addon and just add extra lines of code.

So say in 'Scrolling Combat Text' if the line executes that alerts the user that 'overpower' is ready to use, could you not just add a line that says "CastSpellByName("Overpower")" Or however it works! That way whenever it warns you of something it would actually cast the spell for you.....Well maybe that line of code wouldn't but you get the idea and i'm very sure it's possible...

Like I said before I have no experience in this language/writing addons, hell, I don't even know if you get the source code of an addon as I havn't bothered to check although i'm quite sure you do....

Anyways that's just my idea and it's probably all wrong, if I explained it crappily let me know and I'll try and explain again....

You're spot on , providing you weren't on the global cooldown it'd cast.

huzzah!

Anyways, anyone know a good site that lists the pure basics of LUA, such as how to declare variables and use them, what the operators are etc. the rest should be a sinch...From what I've read LUA is very easy I think xD

Ok, we are getting closer... how can I use these functions, how would I go about it? I see you had, I even quoted the logout script part. But what if I don't know how to script... does that mean I just out of luck?

[arigity]

your out of luck unless by some miracle you grow a brain.

[Vladinator]

I've made myself a working 1 button heal-them-all that pretty much works just like old school addons, it's great. Hope the program gets updated after patch!

[WarDrum]

Ah. I've got dominos, that might be it. I'll look through it when I have some time, and see what I can figure out.

its most likely in ace mods

You need to learn how to make addons
