You have inspired me good sir, I'm totally doing that build when I get a Jager.

[w00tzor]

You could improve it using 84ms delay instead of 90, slightly faster fire rate and perfect cycling.

[BarHaid]

Brilliant!!

[Mack1]

I shall take this feedback onboard and reduce the delay and also cycle the guns from side to side.

The music... I had to choke but thank god I didn't puke.

Nothing new and ***. P.S. stop putting AC5's into Flames instead of AC20

When you get good at this game you will understand that people all have different playstyles and you will also understand that Mechs are very versatile and no one build is ever the right build. Keep on playing, keep on practicing and you will get the idea eventually.

LOL, "oh stuff the heat who cares!"

Welcome to Dakka Warrior online.

I still like the stock x2 AC5 x2 AC2 loadout: Set the left arm to fire group Two, the right to fire group One and open them up so the AC2 cycles right; the result is quite amusing as the AC5 fills in the gaps.

It also lets you hide half your torso and not worry about wasting ammo shooting at a wall.

Though this is still hilarious.

Couldn't find a way to get my mouse to run macros like this, so I did a bit of googling and found http://www.autohotkey.com/

For anyone else looking for a way to use this macro, it's pretty simple, just go to the above link, download and install autohotkey, then when it's installed right click an empty folder, hit New -> Autohotkey Script, then copy/paste the following and save...

#InstallMouseHook
#InstallKeyBDHook

MButton::
while GetKeyState("MButton","P")
{
send {1 down}
sleep 85
send {1 up}
send {2 down}
sleep 85
send {2 up}
send {3 down}
sleep 85
send {3 up}
send {4 down}
sleep 85
send {4 up}
send {5 down}
sleep 85
send {5 up}
send {6 down}
sleep 85
send {6 up}
}

This will bind a similar macro to the one mack uses, to your middle mouse button, quick and easy,
and doesn't need any new hardware.

Too bad I use my middle mouse key for my mic :X

I can't get it to work. I changed the MMB to the RMB, unbound the RMB in-game so it doesn't have a function, ran the script and the game in admin mode but it just won't work. It works in notepad though. Can someone post a working ahk script please?

[Pinselborste]

guys you have to take into account that ping decreases firerate of ballistics, so take your average ping into account.

with my average ping of 130 i have 200 MS trigger delay for each gun when using 4 ac2 so they chain properly, for every gun more it needs less delay.

Yeah, a better way would be to have autohotkey cycle all the keys down and then hold them till you release fire key. That would ensure that all guns fire without skips and max the rate of fire without having to add a buffer to the keystrokes.

[Spooky01]

Mack, Thanks for getting back to me.( email) Happy to see other pilots have found your fantastic video. Tried to do this macro on the Roccat xtd but for some reason unable to work? did you have to change any setting in the option field in MWO?? Please MORE Videos! Fixed the chair I fell off while watching JM6-DD, I now use Duck tape to stop chair rolling away from me.

[ChaosAvenger0]

Trying desperately to macro my DD but neither my Razor software macros with Razor mouse or the AutoHotkey software with my Logitech mouse are working inside of MWO. Both sets of macros are testing fine on the desktop though. Anyone have any ideas why?

It'd be really silly if they banned macro's like this, since you're only simulating what an actual MechWarrior would do in this situation: Time your weapons automatically to get the best effect out of them. IMO, they should just provide official support for Macro's of this kind, like Blizzard did in WoW.

it wouldn't be terribly hard to get this essential effect in game without a macro anyways. All you have to do is bind one ac2 to each 1-5 then bind all of them to 6. Then you just hit 1 through 5 in sequence then hold down 6 and let the game fire them immediately as they come up. It might not ever be as precise as his macro, but you would still be getting in 24 damage every second.

You nutt er . And Genius. My hat off to you sir.

As said already, good to see someone else just enjoying themselves. It is a game after all....

I think this is the same script that Fish quoted, but I'll repost it here.

I made a 6AC2 build and quickly realized that the ingame chainfire is trash for what I wanted to do. After I got tired of raking my fingers across the number row while trying to aim in a firefight, I opened up AutoHotKey and came up with this...

#InstallMouseHook
#InstallKeyBDHook
MButton::
while GetKeyState("MButton","P")
{
  send {1 down}
  sleep 85
  send {1 up}
  send {2 down}
  sleep 85
  send {2 up}
  send {3 down}
  sleep 85
  send {3 up}
  send {4 down}
  sleep 85
  send {4 up}
  send {5 down}
  sleep 85
  send {5 up}
  send {6 down}
  sleep 85
  send {6 up}
}

Let me say... I have never seen a full lance of assault mechs turn and run away so quickly in my life. Sure, the damage and heat are terrible when you're shooting at anything fast, but the sound and suppression is absolutely glorious to behold. The other perk is being able to headshot Splatapults with nothing but a stream of AC2 fire, which has brought out more than a few WTFs over the past 24 hours

For the record, you have to run AutoHotKey as administrator for it to work in-game.
