Title: Weapon Quick Swap Macro
Post by: Sneakette on March 22, 2005, 02:26:59 am

Hello guys

First post on the forums, so may aswell make it a good one to start it off.

I have found a Weapon Quick Swap macro which works everytime and I find it very handy as a rogue to use. I can switch between sword/dagger dagger/dagger with ease.

Weapon Quick Swap + other addons (http://capnbry.net/wow/) (It's at the bottom of the page and it's version v24 that I currently have working)

Here's a simple breakdown of how to use it, the .txt file included may confuse some.

1. Install into your interface folder within WoW directory.
2. Make sure the addon is checked within the game when you select your character.
3. In-game, create a macro with the following information;

/script WeaponSwap("1", "2", "3", "4");    (Copy paste if you like)

Replace 1 & 2 with the first set to use, whether that be a sword/shield, dagger/dagger, whatever you want to use.  Use the correct name of the weapon/shield, it must be spelt exactly how the item is named including having the correct case on the item. Replace 3 & 4 with the second set you want to use following the same rules.

This is my current macro at the time of posting;

/script WeaponSwap("Wingblade", "Battle Knife of the Monkey", "Deadly Bronze Poniard", "Battle Knife of the Monkey");

Assign it to a shortcut on your shortcut bars and job is done.
Put the items you want to use for your second set in your inventory (any bag)
It will swap to the other set regardless which set you have in your hands.
If you have something in your hands that is not in the script, but the items are in your inventory, it will swap them.

Any questions on what I have written, just ask me in game, I'm on most the time  :p

See you in game

One thing I would like to add which may not be clear

1 & 3 are 'Main Hand'. 2 & 4 are 'Off Hand'

Plus I got a sig now hehe  ;)

Works a treat, thanks for posting Sneakette.
 
Here's what my macro for switching between 2h and 1h and shield looks like:
 
/script WeaponSwap("Gigantic War Axe of Strength", "", "Skullcrusher Mace of the Bear", "Aegis of the Scarlet Commander");
 
There's lots of variations on possible swap combos, so check the readme file that comes with the add-on files.
