This is a quick and dirty automatic rank 6 assembly macro. It is a little messy to set up, since the primary purpose of this is for my own use. However, if you follow the directions in the readme.txt you should be able to get it working.

In my tests, the character generation worked ~99% of the time and the swearing worked 100% of the time. Sometimes a character will not be correctly generated (if your connection fails, a name is not allowed, etc), but most of the time it works fine. I currently do not check, though, because of the rarity of failure.

The two included VB6 programs are very short, and I include both binaries and source just in case you want to compile them yourself (if you don't trust me, etc).

Here's the download link:

Please let me know if you use this! I'd like to know. Any other comments would also be appreciated. And, if you really enjoy not spending an hour and a half to manually make each rank 6, feel free to donate a rank mule on TD to me

Here is the readme, in case you are too lazy to open it from the zip file:
