    Default SWTOR Character Configuration Tool

    Guys,
    I got sick of setting my variable keystroke keys be hand every time I wanted to run a different party, which for me is a lot.
    I was not happy with any solution so I wrote my own.

    The tool basically just opens a given ISBoxer profile, allows a Character Set to be selected, and then configures the Variable Keystrokes for each Slot of the Character Set based on the Position in the Game Party Frame. By the magic of C# and xml it updates the ISBoxer profile xml.
    One of the downsides is that you have to reload the xml back into ISBoxer and export. So its not real seamless.

    Also the design kind of sucks, but then I did write it in a couple of hours.

    The source code is available to download as well.


    You can find a very long winded and wordy description here along with download links.
    Sorry its not more professional written, but hey I write code not docs about the code.

    Thank you for posting this; I will be moving up to (4) accounts later this week and will be utilizing many of the concepts, ideas, and proceedures that have been posted over the past couple of months, including this one.

    Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I can't get it to work. In ISBoxer I go File > Save As and save my XML file. Then, in the tool, I go File > Load and select the XML file. However, in the Character Set drop box, there's no set to select.

    Apatheist, those steps would be correct. Sounds like there is a problem with the application.
    I can look into it if you want to paste your profile. I think everyone uses pastebin? I can run thru the debugger and find out whats wrong.

    It's probably something I've done wrong, I'm bad at this technical stuff :P

    I see what the problem is. The Variable Keystrokes (PartyMemberOneSelect, PartyMemberTwoSelect, PartyMemberThreeSelect, PartyMemberFourSelect, and SelfSelect) were not found.
    I hate having to use those, but because I don't know how ISBoxer generates its Code for keys, I use those to get the code.

    I guess I could just use the Target Slot 1 thru Target Slot 4 Keystrokes. With the PartyMember#Select keystrokes though, they are not used for anything else so better bet they won't mess anything else up.
    I am also adding a console to the application to better track state and errors and things like that.

    For now though just add the PartyMemberOneSelect - PartyMemberFourSelect, and SelfSelect. They should be set to what you have set in SWTOR.

    I see I didn't really ever test with a team that has less than 4 characters in it. Apparently that causes badness.
    I am fixing that now.

    This is the best tool to be made for SWTOR since ISBoxer! It is so versatile. I absolutely love this tool!!! You absolutely rock!

    Thank you Riiker. Glad I could help.

    I think the only reason more people haven't downloaded this is because they don't understand variable keystrokes. I know I had to figure them out before I could use this. The combination of variable keystrokes and your program greatly greatly simplified my setup. Making changes and adding new things is so much easier as well. I'm a fan.
