Equip/unequip items...

[jettzypher]

...any way to do this with macros? just curious if its viable. looked around and wasnt able to find anything more than the two listed on the WoW for equiping. thoughts, ideas? thanks in advance.

"/equip itemname" works on the command line, I see no reason it wouldn't in a macro.

I suggest getting itemrack. You can refer to sets of equipment in macros. I set this up so I can make a macro to take off everything that might take durability. it is something like

"Itemrack equip naked"

or

"itemrack equip dps"

"Itemrack equip naked"

Heh, I thought I was the only one who did that. :whistling:

"/equip itemname

i know that one...that was listed in the WoW's guide to macros. im just curious if there was a macro/cmd line that could remove items from a slot (just remove, not replace with something else). and im trying to avoid as many add-ons as possible (at least until i get my fps issue solved).

An equipment slot number is a valid argument for /unequip for example you could say /unequip 16 to remove your mainhand you would then be able to find it in your bags. If fps issues are your problem odds are equipment models are not the primary cause. I would suggest something like turning off character shadows, turning down ground clutter, and reducing your max visibility range in cities. This can also be done in macros such as

/console groundEffectDensity 16
/console groundEffectDist 1
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console farclip 177
/console characterAmbient 1
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console detailDoodadAlpha 1

Beyond that it's computer RAM then video RAM that will help the most. If you have a multi core processor set the affinity for WoW clients to something other than the primary or 0 core, that can help tons as well.

Good luck

The problem I found with trying to make a macro to equip all my stuff was running into the 255 char limit. Items have such long names "Brutal Gladiator mail --------".

There was some compact script command that will unequip all of your gear

[Bettysue]

Item ID numbers can be used in place of the names this will usually allow you to equip or unequip everything by "name." On a side note you only have to unequip items with durability to save money, so dont worry about trinkets, rings, and neck pieces.
