Macros

Hi hope i posted in correct area.
Macros - as far as i know (from previous games) macros are the sounds a player can make in game, e.g. “Enemy in Sight” or “I need a Medic” by pressing a key.
I’m really interested in the adding sounds (i have .wav files) for player to use.

Could someone link me to a tut of some description?

Thanks.

Hey @2DNED!

So the term you’re looking for would be “barks”!

Macros are programmable by a player to do multiple things with one keystroke. Sometimes, special keyboard/mouse software allows a player to record or write things for their keys. They are very common in MMO’s. Things like:
/cast “Revival spell”
/partychat “I’m reviving !”
In this case, it would let others know who you’re reviving so multiple people don’t dedicate themselves to doing so as well when there may be others downed.

Anyways, that’s a tangent. BUT it could help your online search go smoother!

There’s a tutorial here that may help you! Watching how to do this may help you with your giving players barks as well- you can utilize most of this information and simply add it to other interactions you make! :slight_smile:
