Hi all,
I built this small one-page-app mostly for myself to generate macro based profiles *for crafting only* it basically translates each action line in to step 1-n. I'm @Nazarin on DC feel free to DM (I have a job with lots of travel so I may show online, but that may just be my home rig), if you have any questions.
What I usually do is:
The important thing to note is that *this really isn't meant to be smart* it just recreates your macro step by step. It doesn't try to bait anything and it won't recover from certain steps failing; it'll just continue marching on. I found it useful for grinding as this is pretty much the automated process of what I was doing back then (same steps but then manually create the skill profile).
I bet there's some browsers where the download doesn't work as it leverages the HTML5 download method. And this thing was put together quickly. If there are any major bugs that folks find I'm happy to look in to them as I have time. I don't have any KR/FR/DE accounts so I really haven't tested this with those languages (it should work I guess?)
TO SUBMIT BUGS/ERRORS:
If a profile isn't being generated properly (ids are null, or the skill ids don't match up) PLEASE paste the macro lines with your post, or send them to me through a direct message. I would be happy to solve any issues that any of you experience using this, but I can't if I can't recreate your problem and debug things. If a skill ID doesn't match up, tell me what skill id you were expecting.

Recent updates made, besides from the updates it all works the same:

What I usually do is:
- Create your rotation at https://ermad.github.io/ffxiv-craft-opt-web/app/ (or elsewhere) and get the macro
- Copy the/paste the Macro results in to my web app
- Pick a filename
- Click download
- Put lua file in the skill profile folder (C:\MINIONAPP\Bots\FFXIVMinion64\LuaMods\ffxivminion\SkillManagerProfiles)
- Reload Lua if the bot is running
- Set up your crafting profile and select the skill profile you downloaded

Update 04/11/2017
Recent updates made, besides from the updates it all works the same:
- Updated profile generation to match the new crafting (thanks Ace for the hard work on this, it's now much easier to create these "dumb" profiles)
- Added the ability to name the file before downloading
- Improved cross-browser functionality (if it didn't work for you before: it should now)
- Simplified interface and rudimentary error handling :)
- Added Support for the new Storm Blood skills
- Extension now set to lua if none or a different extension is given
