Macro Save for Ashita or through Server

Not sure if I seen this before but does anyone know where macros are stored on Ashita? Or if there is a script to save them to the server like SE has for typing in Shift + Alt + Ctrl + B on the character select screen? I tried saving them through the character select but it wouldn't work. Probably not implemented but wasn't sure. Thanks

Macros are not stored anywhere differently with or without Ashita. The game saves them to your USER folder.
For example on a Steam install of the game that is located at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\ffxi\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\USER
The way these folders work is that each folder is your characters handle id from PlayOnline. (This is how it works for retail.)
On DSP, it is coded to be your characters charid. However if you play on multiple servers, you can cause conflicts as DSP servers do not share a unique database. Instead, each one starts at 21828 as the first character ID and goes up each char that is created. So you could land up having two of the char ids on various servers and overwrite your macros by accident.
As for saving macros to the server, that is not implemented here on DSP.
