Anyone Else Having Issues With Macros Not Saving?

A couple weeks ago it started. When creating a macro under macro options, after hitting apply and okay normally they save after you log out. Every time I log back in now they haven't saved and I have to redo it only to have it not save again. Anyone else experiencing this?

Copy and paste Macros from non TC Shard.

This is even on prodo shards Frodo. PITA!

My Tamer on TC had no Macros so I copied its Macros from the reg Shard to the TC Folder for that char and to dbl ck I just cked her just now and those macros are still there.
OR are you saying that you can not make a new set of macros on any shard.

Any shard. I'll try seeing if the C& P saves when I log in later.

Edit: Any shard that I've tried it on... 2...lol

I just made some new macros on Baja and on TC and they worked. Also logged off both Chars Baja and TC and logged them in and the new macros are still there

I am using the CC if that makes a difference.

I have seen this happen. Also have copied macros to a player and they revert.

I just do it a few times until it sticks.

So this is in the EC

Pawain 2021-09-09 18:34 #9

I use CC.

I just did it on TC with the CC and had zero problems. @AmberWitch I know this may sound silly but are you running client as Admin. When I start either Client I am asked if I want to allow this program to make changes to my system or files.

Or an anti virus program that updated and won't let UO write .

Lord_Frodo 2021-09-09 20:35 #12

OK That could also be it.

“Had you previously copied macros from one char/account to another? and now can’t save on this new char after copying macros?

Or it’s all chars that have not had macros copied?
(what client please?)”

Copying the Macro has ZERO to do with it, I do it all the time and I use the CC.

"i experienced a problem this week not being able to save macros (probably not the same cause as the OP), on CC

@Mariah the wiki shows how to copy macros

https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/technical/character-copy/

however i wanted to copy one set of macros from one character on my account to another character on someone else's account. I presumed i would just have to copy the folder and rename the folder to that character,

However after doing so, any new macros/settings were not being saved on exit, and when i returned to the home screen, it had forgotten the account username and reverted back to mine.

The cause was due to the uo.cfg file being copied on the orignal char, this file should not be copied from the original folder as the char macro data was then trying to be saved in the wrong location, and somehow wasn't being saved at all."

Sorry to not have responded but rl is demanding attention dang it! I looked at the user data file and there isn't a sub folder for Test Center even though I have a character there so something is messy and I have to figure it out.
