World of Warcraft

One macro to swap equipment

I’ve never found a tutorial about creating a macro that could swap my combat gear with my fishing gear and back. That’s why I’ve decided to write my own. Even better, I’ve tried something completely new to me: I made a video.

After weeks of learning how to use OBS and Sony Vegas with my camera and my microphone, I thought that the time had finally come to make my first video. You’ve got to start somewhere, right?

Don’t hesitate to tell me what you think in the comments… My apologies if I sound a bit nervous or if I repeat myself a few times, but it’s pretty much the first time that I speak in front of a camera.

The macro I use:

/equipset [worn:Fishing Poles] PVE;Fishing

I hope that you will find it useful. If you have any question, don’t hesitate to ask, I’ll be glad to answer.

    Are you looking for feedback? My stumbling block would be that in the video you say “comma” but in the macro you posted for us to see, it looks like a semi colon.
    Now, I like this video! I think one of my big complaints about youtube information is that, often, I have to watch ten minutes of video to learn ten seconds of information. In your video, it was straight and clean, with exactly the information presented and no extra crap to lengthen the experience.
    Everyone loves tips and tricks, lets see another! Good clean sound, sharp images, no extra junk, some fine music and the exact information that we came to see.
    Grats on your first.

    Thanks a bunch for the comment and the feedback, Wrath 😉

    Yeah, I realised too late that I mixed up coma and semi colon.

    Me too, I hate it when I search for an info and I end up watching a 4 minutes introduction before it even starts…

    I’m glad you enjoyed it, I must admit that I was pretty nervous… I’ll do better in the next 😉

    N’awww hi Sardoken! 😀 So nice to see/meet you on a video! 🙂

    You are very brave! I understand why you felt nervous, I would too.

    You were great, though! You did not seem nervous.

    Very nice to listen to, your accent is so cool – And that last part where you smiled /blushed a little was contagious 🙂

    I think it was a great video, like wrathsome says, to the point, too, but not too straight to the point.

    Nice music and good location for this too

    And good content as well, now I feel inspired to make a fishing outfit sometime…

    Go, Sardoken 🙂

    PS. Nice interface!

    Awww, now I’m blushing again 🙂 I’m glad you enjoyed the video.

    Thanks for your nice comment, Alu. It’s kind of a step to break anonimity and go in front of the camera, but I enjoyed the experience 🙂

    I’d like to make a serie of challenges like the Lord of the rings from Nixxiom or the Ironman and get the whole thing on video,… But that’s for the future 😉

    Aww, hah, blush all you need 🙂

    I can relate to that, a huge step indeed! So great you enjoyed it. I hope to see more in the future 🙂 Maybe Soforah can walk by, total coinsidence and all 😀

    Ah yes, those series are great, but these short videos can be appealing as well 🙂

    Meeeep!

    Random visitor (or groupie?) drops by, holding up several signs, while they chant:

    “We want more videos. We want more videos! Sardoken rules! Also, Soforah!”

  9. Sardoken August 13, 2017 @ 1:05 pm

    Haha, groupies… I knew it would happen. After all, it comes with being the sexiest Orc in Azeroth…

    We’re working on several things to come 😉 But this week was made of allergic reactions and we’ve been a bit brain-dead… Things should return to normal pretty soon 😉

  10. Alunaria August 13, 2017 @ 6:52 pm

    Oh, aww, no no, do not feel pressured! Inspiration comes and carry us, whenever it…well arrives. 🙂

    I do hope that things will return to normal pretty soon too, though – allergic reactions sounds like a debuff I would not want. *Hug* Feel better asap o/
