"Square Enix has revealed some more details about the upcoming version update of their PC/PS2/Xbox360 MMORPG Final Fantasy XI. The exact date of the update is still unknown but it will happen sometime this month.

/dance

Due to popular demand, the following new emote commands will be added. Now you can dance just like a real dancer, regardless of job, location, or situation!"

/dance1
/dance2
/dance3
/dance4

He asked how to change the words in the emotes.

I don't really remember, but I think you have to macro it.

And you posted this in the FFXIV discussion

Re: Emote Help Please

macro it

line one: /dance4 motion <--- so you only do the motion and it doesn't say anything
line two: /em __________ <----- fill the blank with whatever you want it to say. Also remember your name will start this line so make sure it will read right.
Ex: /em points at a large bird in the sky.
You would see this: Ynot points at a large bird in the sky.

I have one of these set up to feed my Wyvern a treat.

Not sure what it has to do with FFXIV though.

Please, don't dance and cast in the same macro. They kill you for that in Rabao.

I have a lsmate who has /dance4 (I think it's 4) motion as part of her Raise macro... and she makes sure she is standing on your body while casting if she can.

It's not as cute as it was the first time, but still occasionally gets a smile.

Re: Emote Help Please

Well for spells like Raise that only get cast occasionally, I really don't mind. But people that do it for Ballad, Cure's, Refresh, etc..........just die.......die a motherbeepin painful death!
