Not FFXI related, but would rather not make a new thread if anyone can answer. D:

Will these two parts work together or no?

The HDD is just one I have in my old PC until I can buy a new one, which will be a couple weeks. x.x

to answer this... I see no reason why they wouldn't.





and to ask another question... How do I put a wait (if I even can) to an autoexec command?

I tried:
Code xml
<register event="gainbuff_weakness" silent="true">/wait 5; input /magic "Dancing Chains";</register>

and it didn't work :/

also tried

Code xml
<register event="gainbuff_weakness" silent="true">wait 5; input /magic "Dancing Chains";</register>

and

Code xml
<register event="gainbuff_weakness" silent="true">input /wait 5; input /magic "Dancing Chains";</register>

and

Code xml
<register event="gainbuff_weakness" silent="true">input wait 5; input /magic "Dancing Chains";</register>

Change it to this:
Code
<register event="gainbuff_weakness" silent="true">wait 5;dancingchains;</register>

Okay, if you can answer, what about an AMD Sempron Processor Le-1250 and NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 w/ that board? All I have left to buy is my CPU and GPU and I don't wanna try to change over boards if I can't use them all together yet or I can't upgrade to the new CPU/GPU in 2 weeks when I have them. x.x Sorry for all the questions D:

uhhhh I'm not sure, if the sockets match the board and the CPU they should fit. That board should fit that card, though. If you give me links I can check.

gah, I lied... that doesn't work. Just triggers Dancing Chains as soon as I get up from being dead, doesn't wait the 5 seconds.

It would work for anything else, I think? Try to tie it to gaining Protect or something.

That CPU is an AM2 socket, the motherboard is AM3+

Are you building the PC specifically for FFXI? Or other things? Because those parts I don't even think are manufactured anymore.

hmmmm yea it won't even fire off say... aero 4 when i get up 5 seconds later, just does it right away. Only reason I care is because there's a delay between when you get up and when you can do anything, trying to get it to automatically put on a twilight set right as i get up from being dead. Can just trigger dancing chains myself, but that's more work D:

edit:
oh, I read that wrong... checking right now.

edit2:
nope, wait won't work even with

Code xml
<register event="gainbuff_protect" silent="true">wait 5;input /magic "dancing chains";</register>


or

Code xml
<register event="gainbuff_protect" silent="true">wait 5;dancingchains;</register>


or any of the other variations... it just fires it off right away.

Those are the parts I have in my old PC, not ones I am buying D: and not specifically FFXI, but most newer games. I plan on getting a FX6100 and GTX560 but I wanted to go ahead and switch over boards if it would save time later. On Newegg it says the CPU is compatible w/ FX / Phenom II / Athlon II / Sempron 100 Series, which is why I was asking.

I see the problem now. Autoexec is dumping it into the console as if it were using the input command, so it's being interpreted as two separate simultaneous commands.

Try this:
Code xml
<register event="gainbuff_protect" silent="true">/console wait 5;dancingchains;</register>

FX = AM3+, so yeah, it's compatible. GPUs don't have compatibility issues as long as your board has a PCI-E slot on it, which any modern motherboard will.

nope x.x...

still just firing right away.

Would making a script that has

Code
wait 5;
dancingchains;


and just have it input /console_exec script.txt work?

really roundabout way of doing it... but if autoexec just puts it straight into the console and doesn't follow waits I can't think of any other way.

Lol, I think you misunderstood me. I was only saying I was going to buy them to upgrade after my next check. I am wanting to know if that old *** CPU will work for now since on Newegg it says the Motherboard is compatible w/ FX / Phenom II / Athlon II / Sempron 100 Series. I see that I did accidentally say CPU instead of Motherboard though x.x

and i tried this

Code
input /echo Hi;
/wait 5;
/magic "dancing chains";

in a text file... The wait won't go off even there, not with autoexec, not just as console exec script.txt

Ok, I will try this one more time. I have played many FF games where I would grind and grind until I learned everything about the mechanics, and then GameFAQS became worth a damn around the time FF8 came out and I contributed to guides and spent a LOT of time obsessing over FFTactics mechanics.

I've only played XI for a year (I had never played an MMO and bought XIV, and for some reason decided "XIV is crap, should try XI") and have had little luck finding a game mechanics guide that I can use as a primer to work toward understanding the minute details of gearset building. If anyone has a game mechanics guide they would recommend, I would greatly appreciate it.

yea... tried that too, still didn't work. Even had a friend tell me to take out the ";" for the wait, that didn't work either.


I also can't get autoexec to run the .txt file anyway.

You should be able to solo anything that doesn't involve keeping something alive. Escorts and "defend the base!" type missions are unlikely to be soloable by a BST.

For some reason I'm leaning toward the waves in Howl From the Heavens having wonky attention spans. I also think they were reasonably damaging. If the former is untrue and the latter isn't an issue, then sure.

I made it through all but 1 mission. (san'd) path, and it was a san'd specific mission. bst can solo all the rest, with varing difficultly. there were maybe 2-3 other fights that took more than 1 attempt, but after figuring out the gimmick, no sweat, ect. maybe 1 mission was dumb luck.
