Description

 

Macro Basic (WoW Classic TBC)

Macro Basic is a lightweight utility addon for World of Warcraft Classic: The Burning Crusade that makes importing useful class and general macros fast and painless. 

If you’re tired of rebuilding the same macros every time you create a new character — or helping friends set up theirs — this addon is built for you.

** REQUESTING FEEDBACK ON MACROS. I AM ACTIVELY UPDATING & TESTING MACROS FOR FUNCTIONALITY & USEFULNESS BUT DO NOT HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH MACROS FOR ALL CLASSES. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK IN THE COMMENTS SECTIONS. I WILL TAKE ALL COMMENTS INTO CONSIDERATION. THANK YOU! **


🔹 What It Does

Macro Basic provides:

✅ One-click import of class-specific macro sets
✅ Optional general utility macros
✅ An “All” tab to view every available macro at once
✅ Smart duplicate detection (skip, rename, or overwrite)
✅ Character-specific or Account/Global import options
✅ Safe handling of macro caps (no silent failures)
✅ Export box for easy manual copy/share
✅ Minimap button + slash commands

Everything is built specifically for WoW Classic TBC (Burning Crusade Classic) and uses the correct macro API for that client.


🔹 Features

📚 Curated Macro Library

  • Organized by class and general utility
  • PvE-focused by default
  • Includes mouseover, focus, stance, form, and QoL macros

    🧠 Smart Import Logic
  • Detects true duplicates (same body) and skips them by default
  • Handles name conflicts:
    • Rename (default)
    • Overwrite (optional)

Tracks:

  • Imported count
  • Skipped duplicates
  • Renamed macros
  • Overwrites
  • Macro cap stops (if applicable)

 

🎛 Clean UI

  • Class / General / All / Settings tabs
  • Checkbox selection per macro
  • Live preview pane
  • Export text area for manual copying
  • Status feedback after every import

🧭 Convenience

  • Minimap toggle button
  • Slash commands:
    • /mb
    • /macrobasic
    • /mb import class
    • /mb import general
    • /mb version
  •  

🔹 Why Macro Basic?

This addon is designed for:

  • Players leveling alts
  • Guild officers helping new players
  • PvE players who want quick, reliable macro setups
  • Anyone who wants macro management without digging through guides every time

It focuses on practical, real-world macros that improve gameplay rather than duplicating basic spell buttons.


🔹 Technical Notes

  • Built for WoW Classic TBC (BCC)
  • Uses proper Classic macro API (CreateMacro, EditMacro, GetNumMacros, etc.)
  • Respects macro limits safely
  • Designed to be expandable with new macro sets

🔹 Version

Macro Basic v0.1.0
Actively evolving with expanded macro libraries.
