sendtext spawnalert

[braedo]

Hey guys,

I wanted to set up a text notification for a certain spawn, using mmotext and spawn, but I can't find anything that already does this... is that the case or am I just blind?

is there a way to have spawnmaster use the mmotext command?

I use this macro I wrote a while back when needed.

|Watching.mac by HardOne 12/20/2010
|This macro will watch for a specific mob to spawn
|When your mob spawns, it will send a text using MQ2MMOText Plugin

So I've been trying to get a few things working lately and I've had some success but for some reason I can't get this mac to work for me. I've been testing it with mobs and how I name them in the mac but I can't seem to get it to send me a text when they spawn. I know mmotext works. I can test that but I'm at a loss when trying to get this to work. I know it's older but is there something I'm missing? Should this mac still work or is it outdated?
