    I just implemented this, and it is a thing of beauty John. I use the option "Windows:Current" and "Remove all Video FX" instead of loading "Auto" in Step 4 of your guide, along with a timer set at 1.7 seconds.

    Its actually alot of work to add it to new teams. I am going to try out using the "create" and "destroy" VideoFX actions instead of loading/unloading video sets.

    Then I should just have to copy the loot keybind to a new character set and not have to create all the VideoFX viewers each time I create a new team.

    That's how I do all my healthbar/pethealth/followerhealth/questUI/etc. feeds. Set it up once and forget about it.

    Do you think it will change the resources needed much? To constantly create/delete versus load/unload?

    I ask because its quite often, looting every 3 seconds or so when I am out farming.

    I haven't noticed any performance issues because of it. I do notice a momentary (~1 second) stall when using the macros that change in-game graphics sliders (environmentDetail, groundEffectDensity, renderscale, etc.) that are tied to my window-swap keys. If I leave those alone, it's basically insta-swap.

    [edit] Every window swap, I'm doing:
    * 1x destroy, 4x create on the dxNothing window for the slave monitor feeds
    * 25x create for bodyguard health bars (1 source, 4 viewers per client)
    * 25x create for castbar feeds (1 source, 4 viewers per client)

    I forgot I hadn't yet added in the pet bars or replaced my party-health stuff yet; it's on my list as soon as work returns from duct-tape-and-bailing-wire insane to normal cat-herding insane.

    So what do you think of this? Decided to put some time, effort, and a few bucks into making it really nice.

    JG_loot_screenshot.jpg

    Included is the LavishGUI custom XML and image file so you can create the above. You can download them here.

    How to get this working.
    1. Download the files and unzip them someplace.
    2. Edit the JG_loot.xml file in your favorite text editor and change the image file paths.
    3. Create a menu choosing custom XML and using JG_loot.xml for the filename and JohnGabriel as the elementID.
    4. Create a button set with 12 buttons.


    To make things easier, open the JG_loot.xml file and in the comments it lists out all the buttons and the targets you should use for your button set.

    This is for use with the loot system described throughout this post, if you have that working already this will complement it.

    Comments welcome.

    I like what you've been doing with this lately, but this recent addition is just a little too much for my personal taste. I like that people are being introduced to new ways of using ISBoxer because the capability to do these things has been available since Inner Space was a thing (but require some knowledge and tinkering to make them happen).
    Do not send me a PM if what you want to talk about isn't absolutely private.
    Ask your questions on the forum where others can also benefit from the information.

    The one thing new I did was combine all the images into one image file and use IS's crop feature to pull out each individual image. Those who downloaded previous projects probably hated having so many images, now its just one image and one xml file.

    I am running out of easy tweaks to my simple projects and a lot of the advanced scripting and whatnot seem too much like doing work. I am retired and don't want to do work anymore. Maybe I'll wait until IS 2 comes out for next projects in case there are changes.
