[Sheet: DnD3.5] Attack macro that doesn't work

So I noticed that the default macro for attacking doesn't work very well. My players try using it (let's say with a longsword), and instead of showing accurate results, the macro shows results way off kilter. This is the default macro - &{template:DnD35Attack} {{pcflag=true}} {{name=@{character_name}}} {{subtags=attacks with a @{weapon1name} }} {{attack1=hitting AC [[ @{weapon1attackcalc} ]] }} {{critconfirm1=Crit?: [[ @{weapon1attackcalc} ]] }} {{fumbleroll=Fumble: [[ d20 ]] }} {{damage1=for [[ @{weapon1damage} ]]dmg}} {{critdmg1=+ [[ @{weapon1crit} ]] crit dmg}} {{fullattackflag= [[ 0d1 ]] }}     - I'm a complete noob when it comes to macros. Is there any fix to this? Perhaps a simpler macro that calculates only attack and damage?

How do you mean 'out of kilter' what results are you getting that seem odd, could you supply a screen shot of the weapons setup and the resulting info in chat?
Garrosh attacks with a Greatsword hitting AC 14 for 12dmg he actually rolled a 6

Can i get a screenshot of the weapon setup on the character sheet as well? And what is the characters BAB and STR?
his strength is 18 and it was calculated as a BAB of 0

Final question, can I get a screen shot of the 'tooltip' when hovering over the suspicious roll?
Ok,that's weird. I tried getting a screenshot of the tooltip,but now the macro seems to be working perfectly. The next time it shows a faulty roll, I will post it.

Sure thing, the macro prompts for additional bonuses which the user could easily 'accidentally' put a number in instead of the default 0... the tooltip is a great way to expose those once you know what you are looking at/for. Glad it seems to have sorted itself out though :) Happy rolling!
