Addons and macros. any news if they will be alowed?

[Zanaionic]

1 of the big things i really liked in WoW was the ability of using non Advantage Addons and Skill rotation, speach, emote, and timer macros.

I have yet to see any word on whether they will be implemented/allowed in Aion but i personally think it would be stellar if they were.



ps: just wanted to add a general question to those who will be playing.

have you ever Placed Speach macros on your spells (in games that allow them) to make it seem as if you are chanting the spells you are casting. Reminiscent of the Character voice audimations(word?) that went w/ the spells cast in Never winter Nights. such as:

So-le-no So-lat-ka. for a magic missle spell (lol i know uber nerd)

just wanting to know if im the only DnD based geek out there.

Using search button you can find Jamie's article about the ingame macro-editor.

Thats all we know about them.

Every RP-player uses them - well, at least the harcore RPers

I like the idea of a somewhat open end UI that allows player created content and customization. It adds a new element of E-Peen to the title that surpasses developer conceived challenges and lets players get their names out there as artists.

No UI is ever perfect either. Even if they get it reaaaaaaally close, something is always missing. Player created UIs could fix that.

What Macro Editor? I don't think that has anything to do with Addons with the UI. It won our Phibers first Suggestions Cyle, Customizable User Interface. Addons, etc. So I have a feeling that either they don't have it yet, or if they do and we just don't know about it. But either way, I think they paid some attention to the winner of that thread.

So all I can say its a maybe

OMG I loved the audio casting speech for the spells! Now I want to install NWN again

I think it would be great if characters could have an audio voice clip when casting a spell. That was one of the way that helped me figure out if someone was sneaking up and trying to cast a non silent spell =D

o-bi-do ba-lao-balcat! I think was the druid one? lol its been too long o_O <3

I made quite a few UIs and addons /macros for WoW. Only problem is keeping them up to date with all the new patches. I would hate to make any add ons at the launch of aion. HELL!
