Heyo! I’ve went through the forum and noticed several issues with languages other than English.

It’s mostly about the skill names. It’s writings differ in German, Russian, French… So, I’d like to know if GS works with skill names in other languages, or is it possible to write a skill ID instead.

If someone has solved the broblem, a reply will be greatly appreciated.

[quote quote=19615]Hi all. I am new to posting here but a long time user of the macros found here. I am having trouble with the GnomeSequencer. I have followed the instructions to the letter. I even watched a video and paused it to do the steps as the guide was explaining it. My problem is once i make the macro and click save , no text pops up in the macro window. I know its supposed to pop up a message stating #showtooltip etc…any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I am having this exact same issue. I read the posts below this, and it seems a previous macro extender is the culprit. I disabled super dooper macros, and even deleted that entire addon and references to it in my Saved Variables file. But I suspect I must have have installed another macro addon like toolkit in the past, and that is still causing issues. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Also I am getting a “failed to load” message when I first log in to Wow. I followed all of the directions to the letter, and I have one macro string in the .lua copied from this site that should be a working macro. I checked my addons, and it is checked and load out of date addons is selected. It also shows that it loaded in game, except for the error message.

Make sure you have the start and ending correctly. I am super new to this but it should look like this.

local _, Sequences = ... -- Don't touch this

Sequences["Macroname"] = {

    StepFunction = [[
        limit = limit or 1
        if step == limit then
            limit = limit % #macros + 1
            step = 1
        else
            step = step % #macros + 1
        end
    ]],

    PreMacro = [[
/startattack    
    ]],
'/cast spellname',
'cast spellname',
]],    
}

Then within WoW, under Macros and the tab for your character make sure you make a macro named the exact same thing you named it in Sequences[“Macroname”]

@Dramion, I believe you may have an extra (and undesirable) ]], at the end (second to last line). Either you lack the matching opening brackets or you need to remove the redundant closing brackets. Perhaps you intended to have a PostMacro = [[ (or removed such)?

I am sorry been at this for 2 days now and just have too much trouble with Gnome Sequencer. None of the files are working even deleted all other addons wtf file everthing pasting just has only worked once for me on a rogue macro none others tok ever

All of these recent questions are answered in the post “Common Mistakes in Gnome Sequencer Files” You have been posting in forums not read by we troubleshooters and asking questions we have already answered elsewhere.

Not to be rude, we are happy to help, but you need to post in the appropriate topics if you want us to even see the requests.

Also, we typically need only the 1st full line of a lua error, posting that you use swatter and auctioneer and every other add on just makes our eyes glaze over and we skip things.

Lastly, no, it has nothing to do with superduper, it has to do with the syntax of your sequences file. If there is 1 error, GS will fail to load. You have at least one syntax error likely related to a sequence above line 83. probably an unescaped quotation mark or a comma in the wrong order.

Hello,
I found a solution for the language issues. You have to encode your Sequences.lua file in UTF-8 format with Notepad or what ever you want.

Which will not fix the language issue, as is noted in “Common Mistakes in Gnome Sequencer Files #9” the spell/ action names need to be changed for different languages. Changing to UTF-8 will however fix some common character issues.

I am having issue with GS, a few days ago I noticed that all macros have stopped working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it and even repasted the macros back into the sequences file. I cant get them to work at all which were working perfectly the days before. Any ideas if other addons or updates have broken this? Thanks for your help.

this addon is not working at all for me …

Hello. I need some help to download GS I did tired different way to make it running right but my computer seem not let it work. I want someone use teamview and enter my computer to set up. Of course im watch and learn how you do it… I remove everything from gs. I want test gs warrior for pvp… I would love to use one button for me. Thanks, Jon
