Achievement Link Forging

[Muramasa]

Or WoW hates me. I wouldn't doubt it. But I could generate the link and put it in chat boxes, but then when I pressed enter it simply sent as a text in the given chat color, unclickable. ='(

kol now i can link cool achievements in guild chat

Nice work finding this. However, you cannot fool the guild, as when an achievement is acomplished, it says it in guild automatically and doesn't have the [guild] tag in it. It simply just says your name "has earned the achievement xxx"

Is there anyway to broadcast this to guild scriptwise without the [guild] tag being included?

[christ6241981]

is there a way to make a script to create a guild message that would say something like

(Character Name) has earned the achievement [Fudge Packers Anonymous].

with the fake achievement simply being yellow like an actual achievement. I know it wouldnt' be clickable but would still be fun?

[blackp3arl]

really nice! thanks

Yes, it's a real reach to say, "/g Hey guys, look what I managed to do last night! [Warglaives of Azzinoth]"

No.

No.
Closest you could get is writing a guild message then padding out the line with spaces so it wraps, but the text would be indented, and people would spot the fake immediately if they have turned off guild achievement announces or changed their colour etc

For those still having trouble here its a full macro that does it for you

Replace 416 with your desired achievement ID, (this can be obtained as explained by the OP).
Replace Scarab Lord with the exact name of the Achievement (keep quotes)
Replace 11:6:8 with your new date (using the exact same format and quotes)
11:6:8 will output as 11/06/2008

/script no=416 name="Scarab Lord" date="11:6:8" p = gsub(UnitGUID("PLAYER"),"0x",""); ChatFrame1:AddMessage("\124cffffff00\124Hachievement:"..no..":"..p..":1:"..date..":4294967295:4294967295:4294967295:4294967295\124h["..name.."]\124h\124r")
