Ok, I had ACT all installed and set up to use a macro in-game to export the parse to my raid channel (the /do_file_commands act-export.txt). It worked perfectly. I installed Win7 and had to copy ACT back over (I saved it to external HD). Everything works fine except my macro doesn't export the correct data (it exports old data). I tweaked it around and got it to work but now it defaults to group say. I went under the EQ integration export options and tried the following settings:

Clipboard preset (-1) the one I customized.
Channel command: I tried all kinds of options here from like
1) tc XXXX (my dps channel- not the number like 2,3,4 but the name exactly how it appears)
2) /tellchannel XXXX
3) tellchannel XXXX
4) /tc XXXX


I tried all kinds of options after reading all the previous posts.
I am running the ACT program as an administrator
I added the channel command on the left so it shows in the little window for export to EQ2 Macro File (Clipboard export Formatting)
I took all of those out and left the window blank. I mean it seemed like I tried everything and when I click the macro in game I get a few different outcomes depending on what setting I have.

Some of the messages I get are:
"not joined to this channel"
You are not in a group (x4 spam) so it is trying to export and when in a group it does export to the group, but won't send to the channel I want it to send it to. I am probably having a retard moment and I am overlooking a simple thing. But, I can't for the life of me remember what I am missing or doing wrong. Capitalization is correct for the channel I want to send it to.

My problem comes down to: for some reason the channel command is not correctly understanding what I put in the box and where I tell it to post the data. It defaults always to gsay whether it says that in the box or not.

Any help is appreciated as I don't really feel like editting each line in the Text only formatting section to get it to my dps channel.

Any help or solutions?

Thanks,

You keep mentioning this box or that box, so it's a little ambiguous. In the end, what the individual boxes say is irrelevant; they are only used to add data to the CheckedListbox on the far left. It's what that says in the end that matters.

I expect you wish it to look like:


You can force an export by right-clicking on an encounter in the TreeView of the Main tab. You can then look in the text file using Notepad or whatever.

Thanks for the response. The picture you show is the box I speak about. In there it shows exactly like yours with my channel name in it but still won't post to that channel. Mine says tc XXXX (that being my dps channel) and yet it still won't post. I guess I will have to just Cntl V each time. Not sure why the macro isn't working.

Weird, I redid this again and now it works. I know I was doing it yesterday and it wasn't working. Oh well, thanks all good!
