Macro Icons:
/macroicon can be used to change the macro icon to an action icon, but it can also be used to change the macro icon to a minion, mount, emote, item (with cooldown), general action, companion, pet, enemy sign, waymark, gearset, or quickchat(pvp) icon. This is done using the format:
/macroicon “icon name” category
The categories names are:
general
emote
companion
pet
minion
mount
enemysign
waymark
gearset
classjob
quickchat
For gearset, the gearset number is used for the icon name.
Examples:
/macroicon 35 gearset
/macroicon tomestone emote
/macroicon Fenrir mount
/macroicon "Lesser Panda" minion
/macroicon "Spine Drops" item
Quotation marks are used around names with two words. To indicate HQ items, use a space then the HQ symbol. An easy way to do this is to use the link item function (right click on an item and click to “Link”) then typing /echo in front of the <item> text that appears in the chat window. (/echo <item>) You can then copy the text that appears in the chat and use it in the macro.
Battle Effects:
/battleeffect can be used to allow you to better see what is going on in game by allowing you to specify which types of battle effects you want to see. This lets you see enemy AOE circles and mechanics better, especially in 24 person raids.
The format is as follows:
/battleeffect type setting
The type can be:
self
party
other
The setting can be:
all
simple
off
The setting “simple” shows limited effects. The type “other” includes some NPC actions and players outside your party.
Examples:
/battleeffect party simple
/battleeffect other off
Sounds:
There are some commands that allow you to do the same thing for action sounds, as you can do for battle effects, allowing you mute them, or turn them down.
The commands are:
/soundeffectsother volume
/soundeffectsparty volume
/soundeffectsself volume
The “volume” is a number between 0 and 100. 0 for mute.
Example:
/soundeffectsother 0
Any other volume in the game can be controlled through macros as well, using the same format for setting the volume.
These include:
/mastervolume
/bgm
/soundeffects
/voice
/systemsounds
/ambientsounds
/performsounds
Gearsets
You can use the /gearset command to change to a different gearset/job/class. This can be useful for creating emote macros while idling in town, or for adding custom icons to job change buttons.
The usage is as follows:
/gearset command gearSetNumber
The “command” can be:
change
view
save
delete
You can also specify what glamour plate you wish to use when changing as an option.
Examples:
Gearset 24, glamour plate 5:
/gearset change 24 5
Gearset 10, no specified glamour plate:
/gearset change 10
