===============================================================
Here is a version of the buff by tell macro in use in Fanfar. Since some people have been asking for it, I thought I'd share. It takes a while to get set up and all of the kinks worked out, but it works if you fallow all of the steps exactly. These macros will also buff someone that invites you to their group instead of sending a tell.
Before you start, you will need an item in the general vicinity named "bandages." A cabinet of piece of furniture is perfect for this. You will probably also want to set an entry fee on the building in which you will be buffing.
Step 1:
Set 2 aliases. This is what makes the buff by tell magic work. To do so, type the following commands before you begin buffing:
Code: Select all
/alias ll /target
/alias <your character’s first name> /target bandagesLoad the buff packs into your inventory. Make sure they are not in a bag, but directly in your inventory.
Step 3:
Third, run the following 2 macros with buff packs in your inventory. Make sure to change the <your character name> to your character's name, as this "re-sets" the targeting in between buffs.
MACRO: AUTOBUFF
Code: Select all
/pause 1;
/healEnhance Health;
/pause 13;
/healEnhance Action;
/pause 13;
/healEnhance Strength;
/pause 13;
/healEnhance Stamina;
/pause 13;
/healEnhance Constitution;
/pause 13;
/healEnhance Quickness;
/pause 1;
/disband;
/pause 1;

/pause 1;
/tell <your character name> /icecream;
/join;
/pause 1;
/ui action targetGroup0;
/decline;
/pause 1;
/macro autobuff;Code: Select all
/shout Now buffing. Send me a tell to begin the buff session!;
/pause 180;
/macro autotalk;
And if you're feeling REALLY adventurous with aliases and macros, here's the advanced version. It starts buffing faster than the prior version, but has many more moving parts so a lot more can go wrong.
1. ALIASES
Cut and paste the following lines into your chat bar. You only need to do this once per computer you use. Change all instances of "<your character name>" to your character's name.
Code: Select all
/alias :a /alias <your character name> /ui action toolbarPane04;/pause 4;/ui action toolbarPane05
/alias :b /alias <your character name> /setmood
/alias ll /target
Create the following macros exactly as written. Change all instances of "<your character name>" to your character's name.
MACRO: startDOCbuff
(starts macros running)
Code: Select all

/tar bandages;
/macro rBuffDoc;MACRO: DocBuffSpamLoop
