The macros are kind of like naming a file path in HTML or command prompt, if that makes any sense. As such, you need to enclose the actual command inside quotation marks.
Macros also require a name to be input before it, which doesn't need quotes if it has no spaces. Also, macros don't require the forward-slash that commands normally need, as it assumes that the first word is a command.
An example macro for what you want would be:
/macro name "em evillaugh"
... where name is the name that shows up on the macro'd button and "em evillaugh" is the full command for that emote. Hopefully that was helpful, but if that doesn't work, then sorry for misleading you; I'm a bit rusty on macros.
Thank you very much!
So I'm trying to set a macro that's /em evillaugh, but when I set it as /macro /em evillaugh or anything else, really, it seems to not recognize anything after the first word. This happens with CoH commands, I know. I'm just wondering how you set a macro as /em evillaugh. I'm a newbie to macros... never were really my thing.
Thanks for any support you can give!
