Title: Speedy Quest text macro
Post by: Xanthippe on November 23, 2004, 08:40:05 AM
While I wait impatiently for my preordered copy to be fedex'ed from the Oakland sort facility, I'm trolling WoW boards for tidbits.

Came across this today (from VN - yes, I feel polluted).  It's a script to make the quest text scroll faster in the text box.

For anyone not using a modified UI (I believe those already have this feature).

Type /macro to enter script mode, and

for Speedy Quest:

/script QUEST_DESCRIPTION_GRADIENT_CPS = 600000
/script RegisterForSave("QUEST_DESCRIPTION_GRADIENT_CPS")
/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Quests are now SUPER SPEEDY!")

for Regular Quest Speed:

/script QUEST_DESCRIPTION_GRADIENT_CPS = 40
/script RegisterForSave("QUEST_DESCRIPTION_GRADIENT_CPS")
/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("Quests are now regular speed")

Thanks, that'll come in handy very soon.

Oh I will be using this....yes I will.  That was my biggest complaint during OB.

Nice find. Watching the Behind The Scenes DVD from my CE while I wait for work to end. ;)

FYI: If you have the UI mod Cosmos, the fast text is included.  Some people don't like Cosmos though, this mod is a good find.

I use the CTMod but may switch to GypsyMod.  It seems GypsyMod lets you resize and move everything.  It also removes the art border around the action bar.  I do like being able to write swear words all over my map, however.  I don't exactly why I enjoy that so much, I just do.
