Having a little problem with getting back to my Standard set after nuking a spell.

The <if> rule for the spell is:
Code
<if Spell="Charged Whisker">
<action type="equip" when="midcast" set="MagAtk">
<action type="CastDelay" delay="5" />
<action type="equip" when="Aftercast" set="Standard" />
</action>
</if>


Any suggestions?
I can post rest of the XML if needed.

I can't say if it's wrong or just mis-formatted, but the <action type="equip"> seems strange to me, here's the formula I use. It wouldn't be very difficult to change them and they'd have the same desired effect, perhaps you could try this style? This is what I use and it works great.

I'd just give it a try and see if it works. Also, does your Windower console give you errors when you cast spells?

<if spell="Slow II|Paralyze II|Addle">
<if target="Tiamat|Genbu|Suzaku|Seiryu|Byakko|Kirin|Jormungand|Vrtra|Cerberus|Khimaira|Tyger|Jailer of Love|Sarameya">
<action type="castdelay" delay=".4" />
<equip when="precast" set="Fastcast" />
<action type="midcastdelay" delay="1" />
<equip when="midcast" set="MND-Enfeeble-Acc" />
</if>
<else>
<action type="castdelay" delay=".4" />
<equip when="precast" set="Fastcast" />
<action type="midcastdelay" delay="1" />
<equip when="midcast" set="MND-Enfeeble-Potency" />
</else>
</if>

So example:

<if Spell="Dream Flower">
<action type="CastDelay" delay="3" />
<equip when="midcast" set="Dark" />
<equip when="Aftercast" set="Standard" />
</if>

As for having "Standard|Engage" in your Aftercast part of that rule, it shouldn't be a problem if you just put "Standard" since you have a rule defined for <action type="equip" when="engaged" set="Standard" />. Although, there I use <equip when="engaged" set="Engaged" />

Edit: BTW I just noticed when pasting that you have your rule set to equip "Standard" when engaged, it should be <equip when="engaged" set="Engage" /> for you.

Try this one.

I updated the syntax a bit so it falls in with 2.3x and higher, I also took out that "autoset" line (I've never seen the point in it personally).

I used a old templete and edited/added things I felt was nice. Maybe a really old code, or the person didnt know what he was doing (like me) lol.

Anyway, huge thanks to you Hitetsu!

Shouldn't this be on the windower forums?

Well it's good to know the formula I used to equip sets is working well for you too. Good luck!

Probably, but from what I've seen on Windowers forums, there is very little traffic and even less with people who know anything about Spellcast.

XIAH however, has equal amounts of potential for reaching people, but has much more traffic, increasing the chances of someone who knows Spellcast seeing it.

Rather than adding a code for every spell with:
Quote:
<equip when="Aftercast" set="Standard" />

Delete all of those and put this at the end:

Quote:

<if status="idle">
<equip when="aftercast" set="idle"/>
</if>
<elseif status="engaged">
<equip when="aftercast" set="melee"/>
</elseif>

I posted there too but I know for a fact I get a answer faster here, as Hitetsu stated;
