how to use key press to pick up reagents and arrows

Post by psoren »

i played the old UO years ago and i am new to the Excelsior Shard.
they had a hot key (alt x i believe) that when pressed you could pick up near by reagents and arrows and such.
i can't find any such hot keys or macros available in Excelsior and i find no mention of one.

can someone please let me know if there is a way to pick up arrows or reagens off the ground without out actually using the mouse.

thanks,

Alt + X is the default macro for logging out of UO.


I know what command you are speaking of, however I do not know if it is available anymore. I use UO Razor as I suggest you do as well. You can use scavenger macros to designate as you see fit to pick up various objects.

Here are instructions for Razor: http://www.uoex.net/wiki/Razor_%26_Macros

thanks for your reply.
is there a scavanger macro or would i need to create one? i believe you are telling me i need to create one to pick up items.

i looked very closely and i didn't see any commands that gave me the ability to pick up anything.
where would i find those commands.

i have created macros in Razor but can't find any options to pick up something.
i thought there was one in the UO macro drop down menues but can' t find one there either.
i must be missing something.


thanks again for your help.

If you are refering to the key to pick up stacks of anything without having the quantity gump appear, it's shift and drag!

Psoren,

Please look under the TAB labeled "Agents". You'll have to forgive me, I consider it a macro when in fact it is a scavenger agent. I use this agent to to pickup all arrows I have fired and missed. Once you have the Agent tab up you will see a entry for Scavenger. Start there and let me know if you have any questions. It should be straight forward though in choosing your resource to scavenge and then choosing the bag to place that resource in.

if you use scavenge make sure you make a hot key for clear cache too it's helpful :)
