Spellcast

Is spellcast done with as far as updates? 

I've tried working on gearswap with the following bit of code and nothing happens:

Yes, Spellcast is dead. This is pretty basic. I took my WHM GS and took out everything that was irrelevant to your issue.

function get_sets()
 
sets.Idle = {} ---You can define a base set here if you desire---
sets.Idle.Refresh = {body="random refresh body"}
 
sets.Precast = {} ---You can define a base set here if you desire---
sets.Precast.Cure = {body="Nefer Kalasiris}
 
sets.Midcast = {} ---You can define a base set here if you desire---
sets.Midcast.Cure = {body="Orison Bliaud +2"}
 
function precast (spell,action)
 
if string.find(spell.english,'Cur') and spell.english~="Cursna" then
equip(sets.Precast.Cure)
end
end
 
function midcast(spell,action)
equipSet = {}

if string.find(spell.english,'Cur') and spell.english ~= "Cursna" then
if string.find(spell.english,'Cure') then
equipSet = equipSet.Cure
end
end
end
 
function aftercast(spell,action)
status_change(player.status)
end

 
function status_change(new.old)
if new == 'Idle' then
equip(sets.Idle)
end
end
 
end

that's a start but going by what you have shown, it won't do anything for an "aftercast/idle" Is there a "HOWTO" somewhere that i can read that has basic information that shows how to get everything setup and what things mean? 

there is but im not sure ware that is but untill someone posts it if you go to

Windower4\addons\GearSwap\beta_examples_and_information

you can find all the info on functions, etc. and a few examples made by byrth (gearswaps writer)

also here is a basic script(add and remove as you need to)(this will self destruct in 24 hours)

What I gave you will have you idle in refresh gear. Then when you go to cure you'll switch to precast.cure gear then midcast.cure gear (the cure pot/healing skill/MND gear) and then when the spell is finished you'll switch back to idle gear.

You should use code tags to post code, i.e. [ code]stuff[/code] (without the space), not spoiler tags (or no tags at all). That will preserve formatting and is easier to debug for other people who read it.

Also, just to point it out, Spellcast is not dead, it's just not officially supported anymore. It won't receive future bug fixes, but it works fine as of now and will continue to do so until SE breaks it. You should convert to GearSwap, but you don't have to do it by tomorrow, you can gradually phase Spellcast out.
