Selfish act but a beneficial one possibly for others :P

If anyone is bored why dont you write up mercs 2 step macro into a simple step by step guide ?

I cannot remember how I got it working and Im on a new pc so reinstalling everything fresh, including my isboxer profiles etc
And...... I really would love that 2 step macro back and use it, but have noidea in how to set it up again, the instructions are'nt computing for me :(

This is already been done. Taken from the original post by Merc...


If you are using Lax's "FTL DPS Keys" keymap, you already have a "DPS 2" mapped key that simply sends the keypress of a "2" to all windows when you press "2".
Create another mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" called "2 Step" that is also called when you press "2" but has two steps - the first sends "2" to all windows (exactly as above), while the second step sends ";" to all windows.

Now all you need to do is set up a new mapped key in your "Control" key map. I called mine "2 Step Toggle" and associated it with the "Insert" key. It will have two steps in it.
Step one has 3 actions:
1) A new mapped key state action (one of the options when you add a new step) that toggles the "DPS 2" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to On
2) A new mapped key state action that toggles the "2 Step" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to Off
3) A popup text with a message like "2 Step Turned OFF"
Step two has 3 actions:
1) A new mapped key state action that toggles the "DPS 2" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to Off
2) A new mapped key state action that toggles the "2 Step" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to On
3) A popup text with a message like "2 Step Turned ON"

That's it! Use "Insert" to turn your toggle on or off.

Attach the sequence macros to your "2" key in WoW and the proc macros to your ";" key in WoW. Done.

(Of course, you may want to associate your proc macros with something other than ";" - Pinot used "9" and sent the 2nd step of his "2 Step" mapped key action to "9".)

Also, Va1entines was good enough to post a couple of screenshots of this set up in ISBoxer (thanks Va1entines!):

If you have specific issues or questions that's what you should post.

Closing thread, there's no need for 2 posts. As Vecter said, if you need help, post in Merc's thread and ask questions.
