Need help with /script

[nilum]

Okay I have a working hack that unlocks the protected lua functions in WoW (thanks to a contributor over at SkillHackers).

The only problem is when I run a macro I get this annoying error message if I am not in range of the target, or unable to cast the spell.

The first macro I tried was:

/script CastSpellByName("Sinister Strike");

I would get this error message:

A macro script has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI

I would not get that error as long as I was in range of the target and able to use the spell (having enough energy). The script did work though I just got an annoying message. Then it was suggested to me to use IsUsableSpell and IsSpellInRange checks so I made this macro:

/script useable=IsUsableSpell("Sinister Strike"); inrange=IsSpellInRange("Sinister Strike");if((usable)and(inrange)) then CastSpellByName("Sinister Strike"); end

I am still getting that error message though.

Any help?

Okay. i sort of fixed it. I am not use to lua booleans.

I changed if((usable)and(inrange)) to if((useable==1)and(inrange==1)).

However, when I get close to the target sometimes the client thinks I am close enough when I really am not. So I still get the message right before I reach the target if I am spamming the button. I won't get the message if I am standing far away though.

What I would like to do is just completely disable the error message. Lua Errors are disabled in my interface options btw.

/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()

I think that's what you want. If you want them back:

/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear(); UIErrorsFrame:Show()

What you posted works, but not for the right error message.

It gets rid of the red error messages that usually pop up in the middle of the screen that let you know if you are facing the wrong way.

This error message actually pops up in a window and you need to click a button to close it.

Hmm it was suggested to me to run:

RunMacroText("/cast Sinister Strike");

This works, but I am wondering if I am going to have similar problems with other protected functions.

If you use an addon such as !Swatter or something similar, it will suppress error messages.
