[Addon] Multiboxer V2

[smurfy]

Hey,

i started working on a Multiboxer addon with some features of the original multiboxer and some new one.
All based on Ace.

You need this Addon on your Main and Alts/Slaves to use all functions

Current Version: 0.5

http://www.smurfy.de/files/MultiBoxerv2_0.5.zip


Short list of Features: (see Changelog for all)

- Simple GUI frame which displays following state and XP bar for alts/slaves
- Remote Quest Gossip and Taxinode Broadcast ( 1:1 like ZQB)
- Autoaccept SharedQuests and EscortQuests
- Autoaccept Rezzes, Invites (friendlist only), Repair all, Deny Duels (All as seperate option)
- Redirect Whispers/Tells to Main
- Autofollow Main after Combat
- Autoset ffa if groupleader
- Display alts Inventory if you trade.

ChangeLog:

0.5:
- main requests inventory if you trade

0.4:
- notifys you if slave could not follow you after combat
- also displays in error msg passthru the quest loot informations (yellow text thing which tells you, that you got 6 of 10 strider meats)
- fixed escort quests (autoaccept)
- fixed quest/gossip share now should work all gossips
- xp bar should update also if you level up or you return a quest.

0.3b:
- Only zipname differs, f*cked up some small stuff :)

0.3:
- Added duel ignore
- Added autorepair
- You could hide the Gui
- Autoset FFA option
- Questfolow / selection like ZQB
- TaxiNode selection

0.2:
- Included redirection of whispers to main
- display xp bar
- cleaned code

0.1:
- Auto Accept invites from friends
- Auto Resurrect
- Auto Follow the leader or a given name after combat ends
- simple Gui which displays follow status and error messages
- Auto Accept shared Quests
- Auto complete / accept Quests after rightclicking on Questgiver

Not possible features due lua restrictions:
- automatic trade accept after some seconds - (you must click on the trade accept button or use a macro. Its not possible due api restrictions to press the Accept trade button without a user reaction)

Possible features/changes
- see the slaves bags
- request a (or more) items from a slave (trade)
- modify the ugly info box :D (but how they should looklike?)
- remote buy from vendors for alts/slaves

[shaeman]

I would love an addon like this.

[Gripen2]

Cant wait for an release :P

Can you release the first version now? :P

[Silly Gooooose]

Just look up the addon Automation, and multiboxer tool kit.

Copy every fuctionality of those 2, into one new mod that doesn't bug out, and then add the complete quest thing, and I will love you. Will replace 2 mods of mine.

[Djarid]

I still use the original multiboxer. And I really don't like twinbox toolkit

What I would like to see is a community goal to integrate the various multi-boxing addons into a common framework. Tools like librpc have gone a long way towards allowing this to happen.

I like silent whisper, ZQB, partyXPbars etc and the way they accomplish a single task.... if these could use a common framework then it would allow us to take our pick on which functions we wish to integrate.

Yes there is a place for autofollow, whisper redirection etc... the problem is that there are currently so many ways to skin a cat that you will need to provide for many variables. e.g.

you can choose to follow by
Named character focus target party1you can target mobs by
/assist name
/assist focus
/assist target /assist party1 [target=name-target] [target=focustarget] [target=targettarget] [target=party1target]see what I mean... :(

[smurfy]

ok i posted the last version and quickly tested and hacked some small stuff.

@sensenmann

could you send me a link to Automation please?

@Djarid

i think i see what you mean. my goal is to create a addon which works for all users.
make all new features a option to allow the user to deside what he wants to use and what he don't like and disable.

i made the follow option as a setting. you could insert a name, or "target" or "party1" for the follow option.
targeting and following on the other hand is since the last patches really hard to solve with addons. but should be possible.
i wrote my last big mod 2006 so i have much to learn about secure frames :D

@all
Please write you feature requests and maybe link to the addon you wish to integrate.

[Djarid]

nice one smurfy :)

have you had a look at librpc? It might make your life a little easier :)

[smurfy]

hey Djarid,

i just visited the topic. intresting stuff. also the libtrust thing.
the main problem i think is that more than one in your raid (bg) uses the tool.
so a way to communicate or the other ones to interfere with mine.

i also want to put the results to a gui element/rater than a textonly thing.

i will take a look to the code later this day.

[Rangvald]

Im being paraniod, Im scared of keyloggers so I only use addons approbev buy wowace.com, so Ill hold my horses on this one for a while!

But from what I can read here its pretty neat! ;)

[smurfy]

hey Rangvald,

its good to be scared about keyloggers, but you mostly safe if you don't run .exe files.
wow addons which are only written in lua and xml could not contain keyloggers. (which my one is by the way :D)

about the ace repository: i think my addon is quite to fresh for the repository but i looking forward to upload it there

so and now some conspiricy theories:
1. you could get a keylogger if you uses a old .zip tool and a spezific exploid for the zip file,
2. you also could do some harm with hacked images or videos :)

scary greetings :D

[Silly Gooooose]

@all

I like the idea of making one giant multi boxer mod.

Here is a link to the automation wiki - http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Automaton
and a link to DL it - http://files.wowace.com/Automaton/Automaton-r73039.zip Or just go to files.wowace.com and search the last page of the A's

[smurfy]

Ok, i released 0.2 yesterday and here are my current goals:

- include Zanthor's Quest Broadcaster (only similar function)
- maybe some of the modules from Automaton (Loner ,Repair ,Wuss )

another thing i currently don't like is the gui. currently its just functional but hm, does someone have ideas to improve the look and feel?

[jettmartinez]

I'd suggest adding the slave's target to the GUI display, if possible.

[bugilt]

I don't know about you guys, but i really like how the MikScrollingBattleText GUI looks and works. It makes me wet in the pants! Even though it is just a sct it gets the job done right.

:thumbsup:

[ThatIrishGuy]

im with bugilt, i miss that addon, last time i used it it broke(i dont know if its fixed). and making an all-in one addon will decrease mem usage, making ppls alts run like no other ^_^

[Chorizotarian]

MSBT is working great for me. I love the spam-reduction features (e.g., combining heals from 4 healing steam totems). With SCT I could barely see my poor pally with all the floating text covering him :P

[The_Whack]

Very cool, thanks for working on this addon.

I use the original Multiboxer and think it works great.

Now with this new version, I actually have a GUI where I can configure the mod.

One thing I would LOVE to see is a warning of some sort letting me know that one of my slaves is no loner in Follow mode and has been left behind.

Thanks again!

[smurfy]

@The_Whack

if you have my mod on each slave and main installed you should see a small gui with the slaves name on it. the name is red if the slave does not follow one. if the slaves follows someone you see the name in green and you also see the follower.
but i also like to have some sort of alert to see if you loosing one :D.. like you run out of range from your slave but he is not on follow, or something.

@ettmartinez

i could add this but i think if you use pitbull etc. as unitframes on your main you could see the target of your partymembers.

@All

about the ui. i mean the status gui, not the configuration gui. :D

[Rangvald]

I built up some trust in you and tryed the AddOn out!

Its working fine but I have 1 problem!
I CANT MOVE THE DARN WINDOW! Its covering to mutch, and even if its not Locked I cant seem to move it :S

Is there no way to make the slaves interact with NPCs when I do it? Hate to tab over eatch time I repair or deliver some quest :(

Also, the Quest Gossip option, is there any way to make it choose the same item that the Master chose? Its just random now isnt it? Playing 2 priests and they both like the same things :P

[smurfy]

@Rangvald

you should move the unlocked window by ALT+leftclicking at the "MultiBoxer v2" header and move your mouse :D

I Currently finished, flight node sharing but stuck at quest stuff like ZQB..
but i will add autorepair etc. in the next version.
also guild inv denial and same for duells.

@all who using ZQB.

I cant get the functions hooked (uses the same way as ZQB) . i also tryed ZQB. is this a bug with my wow or does it broke with 2.4.2 (or the patch released today)
my realm is currently down also so i wait for tomorrow :D

[StormClouds]

What I would think would be awesome to include would be a group cool down's bar setup, Like CooldownTimers2 but with less lua errors....

Be great to track things like Gift of the Naaru, Blood Fury, Warstomp, Heroisim, stoneclaw totem, fire nova totem (for easily tracking rotations) etc etc etc

[The_Whack]

Holy crap! I had it installed on only one account and had no idea of this feature! That's more than enough for me, good stuff, thanks very much!

Maybe I'll post comments AFTER spending a bit more time with the Mod! :D

Thanks again!

[Talos]

OOOooooh superb addon !! many thanks ;)

little requests though, perhaps more would agree:


- be able to change the opacity of the warning window, a big gray block is not so pretty looking at
- a toggle to enable/disable showing 'alt' error messages in the warning window, i have no need to see a repeat flashing message of 'already casting a spell'.. i know im a button masher :D

great work mate !
open up a paypal ;) ill see if santa is early this year

[Rangvald]

I have 1 more thing Id like you to add!

The option to change the size of the box AND the text in it! (Not the options gui, but the frame in the middle of the screen ;) ). This would be nice since im running on kinda scaled down windows when im boxing (To cheap to get myself another monitor actually :D)

[Creazil]

Lovely addon :-)

There's one thing, tho .. I have no use of the box at all, at least not in its current state - I'd like it more functional and minimalistic and if possible make it support unitframes instead of a new box. Therefore I'd really like a feature to disable it, because right now I just threw it out of the screen and that's not the best solutions :-)

:thumbsup:

I've always used MSBT, but I started useing SCT just because you can make it show all the dmg of your party. I am too lazy to try and figure out how to do that for MSBT.

MSBT > SCT for sure though. For you arena-ers you can make it play a sound every time a spell gets used / casted. I had it set for my priest so that any time an enemy player casted a ressurection, it would play "Ressurection Detected!" in a sexy Microsoft voice, lol. You can do it for anything.

[Achor84]

Omg - this is Epic!!
What a powerfull addon!!


But one thing:
- Auto complete / accept Quests after rightclicking on Questgiver

If one quest was "autocompleted" the addon choose the Questreward.
Is it possible to stop at this point - select your reward - and moving on?

[mackenziemi]

So I downloaded the mod and tried it out last night. It is 100% worth it just for telling me if my toons are following my main. I am wondering though, I have seen in other posts about adding Auto Accept for things like Ress-ing or accepting quests. Are these features implemented yet? or are they just on the back log?

Thanks

Yeah.

Go in the options-menu with /multiboxer (or with the minimapicon) and turn it on.

More Feedback:
If a friend invites you to a group could you implement to set the lootoptions "ffa" automatical?

[Anahka]

I'd like to second the request to make the window hide-able. Don't need to see it on the alt-screens. Plus it's kinda really ugly :p

On the main it would be nice it if was re sizable and maybe an option for recoloring the background. Or make it transparent.

[smurfy]

Ok released 0.3

- Added duel ignore
- Added autorepair
- You could hide the Gui
- Autoset FFA option
- Questfolow / selection like ZQB
- TaxiNode selection

Next Steps are the Gui :D

Which Unitframes do you normaly use? I use Pitbull and it could be quite simple to add some bars and icons to it :D so the question is should i make the gui fancier or simple hook to some default unitframes?
First step is some more options for the gui and maybe pittbull but xperl etc could be also possible.

[Anahka]

Oh and a way to turn off the auto-quest accept via command-line (or something similar). It's a bit annoying to go over to all alts to disable that before accepting one of those turn-in -> escort quests :)

[smurfy]

@Anahka

not longer needed. no auto quest accept anymore (exept shared quests and escord)
if you want to accept a quest etc. you must only open the questwindow on all chars and then the slaves follows the same options like the master.

[Anahka]

Ok, I'll give that a try.

They don't seem to be auto-accepting escort quests though. I just did the "escort the chicken" quest in Tanaris and had to manually accept it on all 4. This is with the latest version.

Also, would it be possible to send some form of feedback to chat when a quest is auto-accepted?

Great work btw, some great functions in here :)

[Anahka]

Oh about your unitframe question: I use Pitbull also, integration with that would be awesome. Although the current frame is nice and clear. Would be hard to integrate that in a cramped unitframe no?

Then again, with some more options on the current frame it would probably do fine also.

[Creazil]

First step is some more options for the gui and maybe pittbull but xperl etc could be also possible.I believe Pitbull, Xperl and ag_Unitframes are the most common used :-) I use Pitbull myself.

[Kuchikun]

wonderful job :)

[Achor84]

I use Xperl.


I believe Pitbull, Xperl and ag_Unitframes are the most common used :-)
true, true.



- Added duel ignore
- Added autorepair
- You could hide the Gui
- Autoset FFA option
- Questfolow / selection like ZQB
- TaxiNode selection
Great new Features.
Tomorrow I will test it.

[mackenziemi]

First of all, AWESOME Add-on!!!!

I updated to the latest version. I don't see the XP bar though. Is it in the little panel where the toons names are? Or is it someplace else? I found in the config screen where the options for the XP bar are but they don't appear to do anything. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

[joshg]

Confused here, Have you released this yet?

Sorry to souund like a n00b to this....probably becasue i am :D

[smurfy]

yea, try the first post of this thread

[EvilSqueegee]

I don't think I saw this feature mentioned - but I would really enjoy having one screen showing me the damage done to the target by my toons and their totems.

For instance, I cast Lightning Bolt at a wolf, I can currently only see how much damage my leader does, and not the drones - not without looking at the other drone windows, at least. I would love being able to see resists and damage and so forth that my drones are doing, on my leader's window. Someone mentioned to me today that it's a matter of editing the LUA of sct, but I'm not precisely compotent enough with LUA to trust myself :P

[Anahka]

Unless I'm missing some obscure setting....I don't think auto-accepting of escort quest is working.

[Kuchikun]

same. I installed the mod and got it on both chars... I
So i set up the slave through the gui and well he doesn't auto accept group invites and maybe other things that don't work either..


I'll play now and find out.

[smurfy]

hey,

i can't test auto-accepting of escort but group invites work. but the slaves only accept friends (you must put your main to their friendslist)

[Anahka]

Group invites work fine yeah, once you add the main to the alts friends list.

[Rumble_Pack]

does this only work with englisch wow client or also with other languages?

[Simulacra]

Thankyou so much for this - all the niggly minutae of boxing have disappeared. Great Job it's really simplified my boxing :)

Now: any plans to make that grey box mo'better? lol

[firest4rter]

Great work, loving the mod, the follow on combat finish is great.

My only request as above is regarding the gui box. I dont use the targetting features as my macros work from focus so its a big box for not much function. Can we make it smaller, resizeable? Some work on this box would be great. Until then, I will keep using the mod as it combines alot of good features.

[Achor84]

does this only work with englisch wow client or also with other languages?
Works also with other languages..

Works fine with the german ones.

[Rumble_Pack]

Thanks for this Addon, works great on my german WoW Client and makes multiboxing so much easier.

But I guess there´s one Bug (with german language), when using the Function of posting the Toons Whispers in Party Chat, only one of the two Toons gets the clickable Chat Message my Main Char (party1) gets none.
Sending the Message by whisper to the main Char (party1) works great, only the clickable party messages doesn´t work.

[smurfy]

you must check that option @ your main too to get the message

[Deekhay]

Hello and the first thing is: Thank you so much! :)

I've been using it since you released 0.3. I have just one question: It does so many things automatically (which is great btw ;)).
Is there any way to be sure that it won't be considered as automation and get banned for that? Are all this functions (auto-repair, auto-fly...) macroable?

Have a great day,
Mortah

[smurfy]

@Mortah
yes all functions are also be possible with macros.
(but not automaticaly)

but: for all automatic functions in this addon exists 1-4 :) other mods with specialised in one or other function.
examples: 1. "fu_durability" supports autorepair, "automation" allows all automatic function this addon supports.

i don't think blizzard will ban you for using a automation addon. but if you worry about it, you could disable the functions via options.

@All

i think i release a new version tonight.
changes:
- notifys you if slave could not follow you after combat
- also displays in error msg passthru the quest loot informations (yellow text thing which tells you, that you got 6 of 10 strider meats)
- fixed escort quests
- fixed quest/gossip share now should work all gossips

[rbaldwin7]

First off, this is a really smooth addon. Amazing job so far.

I have Multiboxer V 2.3b installed on all 5 accounts.

Just a few things I noticed:

1) Auto accept invites is not working for me. ( not a big deal w/ an easy Accept Macro )

2) If I Have a pending party invite (on my main ) and no one else is in the group yet with the Autoset FFA option enabled, it keeps spamming "You aren't in a party." Probably due to a timed input of "/ffa".

Other than that...Keep it coming!!

[Anjuna]

1) Auto accept invites is not working for me. ( not a big deal w/ an easy Accept Macro )

Did you make sure to add your clone to your main's friends list, and vice versa? That is what fixed this for me. :D

[sparvath]

have been testing it for 4 hours this evening in the 2.0.3 version and all I can say it works like a charm.

they accept invites promptly when main is on friendslist 5-6 sec later loot is set to free now I can fully stay on screen 1 since GUI lets me know if a toon is lost for some reason Quest sharing is also effortless glad you implemented the hide GUI since its absolutely no use for me on the others than the main. Besides their small screens get cluttered with enough as it is
Look forward to get use for the redirect whispers. Had a friend test it by sending whispers to all the shamans and all was finely redirected.

So all in all its a superpackage for the new casual (like me) and I think the more hardcore in the community.

Only thing I experienced was an error from Gatherer when alts looted. Nothing major and I am gonna disable gather on them anyway

Keep up the good work and thanks a lot from me

[davsp]

Hey guys,

The release notes mentioned that it could "display XP bar". Does this mean it can show the slaves' XP bars? If so, where can I enable this setting. Because I've spent a good half hour looking for it, and can't seem to find it.

Or is it even working yet :P

[smurfy]

@rbaldwin7

about first question, you need to put your main to the alts/slaves friendslist. (as sparvath and Flash said)
second one, ok i will check that. the addon checks every 12 secs if the lootoption is at ffa if not it tries to set it. i will check the partycount to > 1 in the next version

@davsp

You should see a small and ugly white bar at the bottom of the alts name. thats the xp bar. (you maybe need aces shared media media lib installed.)

[davsp]

weird, it worked for a while just now, but after i tinkered around with wow/mods, the bars disappeared.

How do I get them to reappear? What do I have to trigger or something ;/

edit: actually, I can see the bars on one of my slaves, but they don't appear on my intended main. Any solution?

[firest4rter]

Selecting chat bubble options now works for me. Great feature that i will never be able to live without again. Keep up the great work.

[Krohnos]

Smurfy! You are a god!!! Its a cool addon. One thing to mention, what you think would it be hard to code this thing: when a slave has some kind of gathering skill like herb or mining, and a vein or herb shows up on the minimap, the slave whispers to the main or something so you can switch to the slave and gather it. Would be nice, im 5 boxing and it turned out its annoying if my main is herber and a slave is miner, i always have to watch for mines also.

[smurfy]

hey, from my expirience, its not possible to access the dots on the minimap with lua. so its not possible.
yea gather creates icons there but the icons are painted above the minimap.

so there is realy no legaly possible way to access the dots. sorry

[Krohnos]

damn :/
thanks anyway

[Tizer]

I've not had a chance to play with your mod yet but you seem to be getting along with things nicely so perhaps i could make a request and ask a couple of questions.

I quad box 4 shaman, i dont PvE on them so im not reliant on 1 character taking the lead all the time, thus all 4 of my shaman have identical macros. I use focus targetting all the time so my focus can be set to any of the 4 characters.

Now as i said i've not tried the mod yet, so i wanted to ask, does the /follow alert change to the character of relevance if i swap my main character with a focus change? Or is it a case of having to type a new main name in a box on screen? If its the latter, i cant see this being of much use to me which would be a shame :< in which case i'd liek to make a request to have a dynamically changing main that is set with the focus command :thumbsup:

On another note, i used ag_unitframes and i have them spread along the top of each window, it would be great is the dropped follow alert would work with this mod and would only create the alert on the focused / lead characters window. This follows along similar lines stated above on the /follow feature.

I'd also like the ability to split appart the group members and place them on the screen in whatever order i want.... (MoveiT & Move Anything works, but only with the old standard blizz interface) I think this would be used by nearly every multiboxer out there as its one thing that makes each wow instance different.

If thats possible and you have time to do it i would happily make a donation for your time.

:thumbup:

I'll answer this one for you. The main automagically changes, as in whoever is being followed is clearly presented in the box. If you follow focus and change your focus on the fly and re follow this will be accuratly represented in this mod.

As for your other questions. Unit frame intergration would be awesome for this mod, although I expect it would be a fair bit of work. Pitbull would be the way to go :)

[rbaldwin7]

Here's a couple ideas:

1) I'd love to be able to have the party members in the same order on every toon to help with making healing easier if my main dies.

I'd also like the ability to split appart the group members and place them on the screen in whatever order i want.... (MoveiT & Move Anything works, but only with the old standard blizz interface) I think this would be used by nearly every multiboxer out there as its one thing that makes each wow instance different. 2) The auto repair option is amazing. Is there a way to also auto sell grey items ( without needing to click any buttons )? And also items that you could put on a list.

[moosejaw]

You can use GarbageFu for auto selling of grey items. If you use Informant (part of Auctioneer) it will get prices for them also. On one of my toons I have a total of 1400 gold in sold greys since BC launched.

There is another auto sell grey addon but I can't remember the name. Perhaps some one could chime in and tell us.

[Tizer]

Pitbull would be the way to go :)I've tried Pitbull but cant find the option to split group members :?

Might have a go now :D

: nope, deffinately not there unless im blind.

[Anahka]

Request: loading per character instead of on or off in the addon-screen.

I'd want it enabled on my multiboxing leader, but not on my other toons.

[Icetech]

Small prob, i just installed the new one .4 or whatever... and when we get on a bird it constantly says im already mounted in read on all the toons...

also, did you remove it auto taking quests? not taking what the main takes but just like turning in one and it would auto take the next ihn the chain?

[Icetech]

and now its telling me non stop for the last 10 mins "you are already there"

[shockbeta]

Downloaded this addon and tried it out with two characters. Not sure if this is the case or not, but whenever the "slave" was party leader he would often not be able to re-follow the specified leader after combat. If said leader was the actual party leader the "slave" would re-follow after combat flawlessly. Just curious if anyone else ran into this, not a major issue it's just I decided to use raid target icons to visually mark what the slave was targetting. Since I don't really need to use the raid targets I have the slave mark the current targeted mob with a raid icon to make sure he's got the right one. In order for that to work the slave needs to be partyleader, of course there are addons that allow others to set raid icons so I'll look into that as well. But if you can duplicate what I said then it should be noted as a bug and addressed when there is time.

~~
So I looked through the code a bit and realized the autofollow after combat is working as intended. I assume this was coded this way as people maybe use leadership to specify to the addon who is the current leader. Which is fine as I can use a raid target addon to allow others to mark targets. And this would be needed for boxing more then 2 toons.

[smurfy]

@shockbeta
thanks for the info, i will change that. if autofollow is enabled it "should" refollow the defined leader. regardless he is the groupleader or not.

@Icetech
do you press any key? and where does it display the messages?

[Icetech]

Smurf, i open the flight path window on all the toons, click where i wanna go on the main toon, they all take flight.. but on all their screens i get the msg's constantly like where you would normally get a raid warning.. i do a /reloadui to fix it, and sorry im not being more specific.. long day and im not logged int atm:)

[shockbeta]

@shockbeta
thanks for the info, i will change that. if autofollow is enabled it "should" refollow the defined leader. regardless he is the groupleader or not.

Yeah but this might be a nice option for players that switch there main often. With how it works now you can toggle everyone to follow there specified leader, and only non leaders will follow. So when you switch your main you would add in PromoteToLeader the new main and everyone would follow the new leader. Another way to do this internally as opposed to switching leadership would be to allow multiple leaders to be stored and add the ability to keybind to specify a leader. You press the key and it switches what leader is considered the main. You could even sync leaders amongst the group so only one person had to have the keybind.

The first method you get access to PARTY_LEADER_CHANGED event and could redo autofollow, but with second method you would be writing the lua so you would already have access of knowing when the leader changed and redo autofollow for new leader. So really second method would probably be better, even if you didn't broadcast new leader to other addons.

[Qlimax]

Quick question to the OP's OP..
Skimming I saw "see the xp of your slaves." I don't want to seem to skeptical ( i love the idea), but with the recent events that have flooded the cs forum, would this be considered data mining? or is the addon meant to just "see" it on your other clients?
Qlimax

[opt]

one mod i think is very very handly and fits right into this mod is something i use called GetVendored, when you open up a vendor window on a character with the mod it automatically sells all your grey items, saving endless amounts of time you spend going thru your bags selling these items

[smurfy]

0.5 on the way (in the next two days i guess)

Upcoming features:
- Pitbull Party XP bar (seperate addon, but needs MultiBoxer)
- View the Bags of the slaves/alts

Ok here a info about the bag view:

If you start a trade with one of your alts, you could see the inventory of your alt on your mains screen.
a click on a item will place it to the trade window.

my question now is, is that ok or do you will see the inventory anytime. if so, how do you open the inventory of your alt?
slash command? icon? whatever :D

if you have an idea say it, if not i will keep the if tradewindow opend mechanism :)

[firest4rter]

I think your bag idea is good. How I manage at the moment is to simply open trade and then work on the window of the clone to do that trade part. I think this will be another small thing to save me time. I trade at least once with all my clones per session so this should be good.

BTW, I am loving this mode, saves me heaps of time on all the little annoying things.

[Kicksome]

Wow - this is really cool. Keep up the good work - awesome mod.

[Djarid]

Once life settles down a littl, I intend to explore this mod ;)

In the mean time can someone add it to the wiki? please as the text
[Category:Addon:Multiboxer] to anywhere in the page to ensure it gets added to the relevant categories ;)

cheers for all the hard work Smurfy

Working great so far except i have a problem with it remembering who the "defined Leader used for Automatic Follow" and who to redirect whispers to...seems to auto revert back to Party1 soon as i close it. Am i just being stuipd and not seeing something?

This was kinda talked about earlier and I think the issue has to do with alphabetical ordering of the Fp's. It is a blizz issue apparently.

Good luck.

[Mystrana]

kk np ty glad its not the Mod but Blizz :) I LOVE THIS MOD :love: wd and gratz :thumbsup: :thumbsup: 8)

[smurfy]

About the fp thing,

i added a protection to prevent following to wrong destinations.
i send id and name of the destination node. if name of node differs the slave does not follow the taxi selection.
i have the same kind of protection on some functions in the questsharing.

[Mystrana]

8o hehehehe great idea lol would get some funny flight dest. other wise :pinch: :D

[Icetech]

Thanks for doing this addon man, without it i doubht i would even consider multiboxing:)

[GPA4FTW]

where to put the mutiboxer folder

[dRiN]

You should put it in the interface\addons folder the interface folder is found in your Wow directory.

this is a youtube tutorial on the subject:

just release 0.5 :D

[Simulacra]

Hi - thx for a great add on, life is so much simpler. Here's a heads up though:

Autofollow Main after Combat

I don't use this anymore as it has some issues determining when Combat has finished, I'm using an older version so this may have been fixed.

Example:

the big scary demon guy in Ramparts (Omor the unscarred): so I carefully place my team in a semi-circle around Omor, I run in build threat and and he summons the felhounds. I get my team to kill a couple of them and suddenly my team decide they're out of combat and run towards me.......WIPE. >.<

[dRiN]

Thanks for this great mod.

Seeing you have implemented to see the alts inventory on trade from the main I wonder if you could implement the following feature.

I have a varied group of MT and some casters. If I loot greens/blues in an instance, sometimes it's an upgrade for one of my alts. But to check this I have to open op all character windows of my alts to check if it is an upgrade yes or no. This takes alot of time so most of the time I just end up DE'ing all the loot.

Maybe you could implement an easy way to see what items the alts are carying (dont need all specs, maybe something like blue, ilvl x, splldmg x, etc.). Or maybe if something like Pawn is installed use that information to get some numbers about item quality on the loot the alts are carrying.

Mouseover a drop, poof an extra window on the side showing character names and some numbers about that slot for said named character.

I know it takes allot to accomplish this in a easy to digest way. If you want me to help you out with some of the features let me know. I have some programming experience. My problem is always the interface that shows the result.

[Ozbert]

Just switched from Twobox Toolkit to Multiboxer 2 and so far I'm very pleased with it.

The only problem I've seen so far is with auto-accepting escort quests on clones - it doesn't seem to work. Even if I have all five clones sitting there with the escort quest window open ready to Accept, when the first clone starts the quest, the other four close the quest window and pop up the "X is starting escort quest. Would you like to start it too?" and I have to manually click Accept in each one before they'll pick it up. This happened for the chicken escorts in both Ferelas and Hinterlands.

I also run the QuestAutomation addon, which usually auto-accepts escort quests correctly, but that has stopped working too. Perhaps theres a conflict between the two. I'll disable one and see.

But in general, this addon gives me all the features I had in TBTK, but does them better. Nice one!

If you look in your questlog, you'll most likely see that the quests are accepted, even though you still see the "Would you like to start this quest" prompt on your screen.

I'd like to thank Smurfy personally for this addon. I've been using TwoboxToolkit since I started cause I thought it was the best available. Just tried out Multiboxer 2 this weekend and I'm blown away. I just started doing dailies on the Isle, and before I found this addon I'd have to do each character individually cause I didn't have a way to mount them all up at once. I was also stuck completing quests on each character manually. Now I just open the dialog on each character and finish the quest on my main. In the words of Christopher Eccleston as Doctor Who: "FANTASTIC!"

[Ozbert]

Ozbert, that's actually a bug in the WOW ui. If you look in your questlog, you'll most likely see that the quests are accepted, even though you still see the "Would you like to start this quest" prompt on your screen.
I'm aware of that bug as I've seen it prior to installing Multiboxer 2 when I was only running the QuestAutomation addon. Even though the "... has started quest, do you want to start too?" prompt stayed on screen, the quest did actually get accepted. A similar issue existed with inviting clones to a group and accepting the invitation via a macro - the invitation window stayed on screen

However, now that I'm running Multiboxer 2 and QuestAutomation, the quest doesn't seem to be accepted by the clones at all. I have MonkeyQuest on screen at all times, and I can see quite clearly that the quest doesn't appear in the clone's logs.

As I said, might be a conflict between the two addons. I need to test things out with only Multiboxer2 installed.

[bugilt]

It would be nice to have a pause button for the auto follow after leaving combat. I ran into some issues when attempting the dragon boss in ramparts. When the phase changed I left combat and the clones came into range putting them in the dragons flame breath.

[Icetech]

Just switched upto v.05 and now my guys auto finish quests, but don't autoaccept.. i can't seem to find the option to reverse that? i like to pick quest rewards:)

[Orthos]

i'm only threeboxing. if another player is in my group, the addon says he would follow me too.

i can't use the whisper settings because i couldn't define the Main there

[Coltimar]

Great tool. I can't get a few things to work, but it's most likely my problem. Thanks for the hard work Smurfy.

[ahnubis]

is there a way to change the size of the window for the alts inventory? right now its only 4 slots wide by like 20 slots long and I miss out on a few items cause its too far down on my UI :{

[Icetech]

Smurf, just thought i would mention i figured out my problem with the whole flying and getting constant "you must dismount" msg's... i had ZQB and MB running:) they were like WTFOMG!!!! messin with each other:)

Are you using Fubar or do you have the AddOn options link on the minimap? That's where I found the setup for Multiboxer.

[Govner]

I use a number of addons for WOW from Led Mirage UI. It uses Fubar but can't seem to add this addon to it. There is no option around the minimap either.

[Occam's Razor]

Can't seem to get this to work.Is there a slash command to bring up the options?
The only thing I get is a grey box in the middle of my screen.You can move the gray box by holding ALT and dragging with the mouse.

I hope he fixes the gray box so it can be resized and made transparent.

Also, try /mb config or /mb menu or /multiboxer config or /multiboxer menu

If I can't find a minimap button for an addon I'll always try the full name of the addon or an abbreviation followed by "config" or "menu" to see if they'll open a config or menu screen,
9 times out of 10 one of theose options works :)

[Govner]

K found the options but I can't seem to move the grey box off my toons head.
I've tried clicking then unclicking the "Lock GUI" and this doesn't work.
The only option that works is to just use hide GUI.

I have nothing but praise for this addon. Good job.

[scav]

Great Mod. I am using this + n52 controller and CloneKeys. The only problem I have is how the mod is not very receptive of shuffling the master character. The way I have the master character set up is to have everyone (including the master) put that character on focus, then everyones macros are [target=focustarget]. There are some issues with things like the out of range follow message and redirecting whispers though (infinite loop for whispers and focus target is always out of range). This can be fixed by adding a few more checks against the UnitName("player") which I did myself. Just hoping to see them work their way into future releases, but if not, I'll survive :).

Thanks for the great mod.

[Frosty]

Great work on this mod!

I got spammed to death the first time I used whisper relay, but figured out my problem.
I REALLY like the flight path option. :D

[Frosty]

I noticed over the weekend that my replies aren't being sent back to the original person, only to the slave accounts.
Is this expected? Or is there an option I might be missing?

All accounts are set to /friend and I have the main's name entered into the boxes for each of the slaves.

[Icetech]

Hey smurf, was wondeirng if it would be possible to make the addon know your set party members names.. like i went into a AV and we got in all different groups, the addon still worked but it didnt show them on the UI properly.. made me nuts making sure they were following:)

[Jaehend]

Ok, I am officially confused and probably overlooking something. In Twobox Toolkit you whisper your party member "followme" to initiate the clone following you, what is the command for this addon? Or do you have to intiate manually to start?

[Frosty]

On another note, it's been a while since we've heard anything on this mod. I wonder if it's still being worked on/supported?

[moosejaw]

I think he is still working on it. The feature request and future items will prolly take some serious work. Real life and personal play time can get in the way of developement.

This addon is at a good place right now though. It works good and has usefull features. All we need now is for Blizz to do a patch and break it. :(

[BGuru]

My whispers get relayed to another alt and not the party leader. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks for the great addon.

[Icetech]

go in MB under the options for who to send the msg to, change it from "party1" to your main toons name.. and hit enter or it wont save:)

[Chrysanthe]

I haven't read the whole forum due to laziness so this might have been posted already....

I have an idea on how to change the TaxiNode function:

Your version is this:


--[[
TakeTaxiNode
]]
function smMultiBoxer.OnCommReceive:TAKETAXI(prefix, distribution, sender, nodeid,nodename)
if (sender == UnitName("player")) then return end

if (self.db.profile.autofollowtaxigossip) then
local rname = UnitName(self.db.profile.myquestsharemaster);
if (rname == nil) then
rname = self.db.profile.myquestsharemaster;
end

if (rname ~= sender) then return end

--self:DebugMsg("GotBroadcast "..nodeid.." : "..nodename)
local mynodename = TaxiNodeName(nodeid)
if (mynodename ~= nil) then
if (mynodename == nodename) then
--self:DebugMsg("Taking "..nodeid.." : "..nodename)
tmpTaxiSlave = true
TakeTaxiNode(nodeid)
end
end
end
end


To improve the TaxiNode function, if your toons didn't discover the same Nodes at the same time, so that the ID list is not the exact same order, I have a workaround for this:


--[[
TakeTaxiNode
]]
function smMultiBoxer.OnCommReceive:TAKETAXI(prefix, distribution, sender, nodeid,nodename)
if (sender == UnitName("player")) then return end

if (self.db.profile.autofollowtaxigossip) then
local rname = UnitName(self.db.profile.myquestsharemaster);
if (rname == nil) then
rname = self.db.profile.myquestsharemaster;
end

if (rname ~= sender) then return end

--self:DebugMsg("GotBroadcast "..nodeid.." : "..nodename)
local mynodename = TaxiNodeName(nodeid)
if (mynodename ~= nil) then
if (mynodename == nodename) then
--self:DebugMsg("Taking "..nodeid.." : "..nodename)
tmpTaxiSlave = true
TakeTaxiNode(nodeid)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Added Code ----
elseif (mynodename ~= nodename) then
local x
for x=1, NumTaxiNodes() do
if (TaxiNodeName(x) == nodename) then
mynodename = nodename
nodeid = x
break
end
end
if (mynodename == nodename) then
--self:DebugMsg("Taking "..nodeid.." : "..nodename)
tmpTaxiSlave = true
TakeTaxiNode(nodeid)
end
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Added Code end ----
end
end
end
end

[Valorin]

Thanks Chrysanthe!

I was having issues with this because my current group is hobbled together from some old alts plus new toons. I used your update and tried it once and it seems to work great. Easy to make the changes too.

[Porgress]

I am having a hard time trying to set this up, I have all the folders that were in my libs folder exctracted to my WoW Addon folder. I also have my Multiboxer Folder Extracted to my Addon folder, but I can't seem to get any options brought up on my screen. Any help?

[Chrysanthe]

The libs folder usually should be in the MultiBoxer folder itself so like MultiBoxer/libs ..
(not sure if it works outside of the MB folder.. never tried that; I don't know how Ace really works)

[HTeam]

Using party1 without the leader possibly following someone else.

When using MB, at the end of combat, everyone is supposed to follow party1. The problem is that for the leader, this is the first guy alphabetically.

I wanted to be able to switch leaders arbitrarily, so I wanted to avoid turning off following for just the leader. It isn't too big a deal to leave it on, it's just annoying that he'll follow someone behind him usually and my screen will flip around 180 degrees.

So, go search for the following line:

FollowUnit(self.db.profile.myleader);
and replace with:

if ( UnitIsPartyLeader("player") ~= 1) then
FollowUnit(self.db.profile.myleader);
end


Now everyone can be assigned to follow party1 and the current leader will just ignore the follow at the end of combat.

[moosejaw]

Nice little snippet. Good job!

[Anahka]

Not sure if anyone is still working on this addon.....but can we please get the simple "auto-accept escort quests" back? While the shared quest dialog option works great most of the time it tends to fuck up when all 5 accept the same escort quest at the same time. They all get it in their quest log but only 1 can complete it. For the other 4 the fact that they actually started the walk doesn't seem to register.

However when I start the escort on the main and manually click the "Player X is starting escort quest A. Would you like to start it also" popup on the other 4 it works fine.

I think it goes wrong when 5 people start the same quest at the exact same second; when 1 starts it and the other 4 agree to join it works fine.

[moosejaw]

There is an auto accept script in the wiki. I use that on all the slaves and fire it off when doing escorts. It is an acceptable alternative and works well. I'll edit it in when I find it again.

Edit: Here it is http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Macro:Accept_All

You can leave out the Repop me line if you don't want to auto rez your shamans unexpectedly.

[Anahka]

Yeah I know about that script. But previous versions of this addon had an option that auto-accepts the escort quest popup. Worked a lot better.

[moosejaw]

I recently did the Belf pilgrim escort in Hellfire and used the auto accept script/macro. All the clones got the quest no problem. I am sorry it doesn't work for you. :(

[Anahka]

You're missing the point. The script/macro works fine. But this is not auto-accepting now is it? Older versions of Multiboxer automatically accepted the "Do you want to start this escort quest" popup. I know I can just hit the accept-macro but I'm just requesting to put the old auto-accept option that was in this addon back in.

[Frosty]

@ Chrysanthe

Gonna have to give that taxi node update a try tonight. This has been driving me crazy.

On another note, is the whisper relay thing supposed to let me reply to the original sender when I respond?
As it is now..Player_X whispers Slave_3 and Main_Toon gets a /tell with who it was sent from.
But when I reply to it, it just sends a tell back to Slave_3 and stops.

Am I doing something wrong or is this the way it's supposed to work?

With that, your alt will tell you that so and so whispered them about so and so, and if you reply to your alt, they will forward your message to the person, making it look perfectly like its your alt talking to them.
This only works for replying to the last person who whispered that alt, but generally people are smart enough to whisper my main, so I never get more than one person at a time whispering my alt.

[Simulacra]

Just a small thing with my favourite addon - when will the ugly grey box disappear? Can we make it transparent? or be able to resize somehow? It's just aesthetics :) Also, a nice feature would be to somehow hotkey the follow after combat option : for instance if I'm just mowing down mobs for dailies I want my alts to follow after combat, bet when I'm instancing I definately don't because the after combat follow kicks in even if I'm still in combat sometimes which leads to wipes.

Resetting when it's online I can't help you with, but I've had addons with corrupted savedvariables files that won't save, and so, generate the default saved variables whenever I log... You should probably try to delete the savedvariables file for it.

(what mine looks like right now, doesn't show that the green for "following" is white now though XD)Very nice, thanks for the tip. BTW really nice UI setup u have there, what are you using for the party bars? I like the way they're out of the way but still really visible.

[Depherios]

The Party frames are Pitbull.

[cookcpu]

Yesterday I was playing my low level ally chars.(3 boxing) I got a whisper to me or my alt, later then I realise the whisper is from a horde char. Anyone have experience this and how to you whisper to another faction player.

Pretty sure that's impossible.

[gbremset]

First of all, thanks for this really helpful addon.

I just downloaded the latest version, and the multiboxer - box is still gray, but that's not really a problem, more of a nuisance. :P
I am also having some problems with the whisper redirect GUI window, as the boxes seem to be "out of the frame"

Now to my suggestions:

1. Add an option to resize the "box", maybe put the information on two lines, so the messages comes in below the characters name, making the box easier to fit in most UI setups.
2. Add an option to keybind "accepts". Something that does the same as the script/macro that can be found on these forums. This means that while using something like keyclone, when I get the trade window up, I just press my "accept" key, it sends the required command to the trade window on that character. (saves a space on my action bar for that macro)
3. Add an option to accept the changes you have made in the interface. At the moment, when I enter the name of my "main", I must remember to press "enter" or the changes I made are lost, and I get error messages.
4. I wouldn't know how to do it, or how complicated it is, but I believe it should be possible to control all settings from one main character. Example:

I multibox with different setups, different leads etc. Setting up multiboxer for each of these situations is no problem, but a little work needs to be put in. Have multiboxer let you set the option that "This is my main character", and all characters in that party, that has multiboxer loaded and running, follows instructions from the WoW that has multiboxer "Set as main"
It would be something similar like Ora2, that lets you designate main tanks etc, which then gets distributed to everyone in the raid with Ora2 installed.
This would also be appliccable for stuff like quest accepts etc, as I'm sure that everyone wants their entire party to act the same way.

Thanks again for a great addon that has made my life a lot easier.

[aNiMaL]

The grey box I always move it to the bottom corner of my screen... but that always returns to the rest position.

Any help appreciated :)

...its also started to reset itself during when im online >.< :(I've had the same trouble while setting up my ui with most of my addons.
I guess you're using keyclone and swap with PiP occasionally between screens of different sizes.
I'm not sure if Mb had this option,
I'm at work right now and can't check,
but "disable screen clamping" worked for my other addons.

I have certain bars from different addons going offscreen when they're on a clonewindow now,
but as soon as I swap it to my mainscreen it all fits great again.

Edit: Ok, it's not the solution probably, MB has no clamp option.

[pinotnoir]

Is there a way to set everything to focus instead of Party1. This mod only works with the group quest chat stuff if I have whoever is party1 do it. I use focus to set my main.

[aNiMaL]

just enter focus in the target field, works great, unless you have no focus set, then it keeps bothering there's no player named focus.
Hit enter after typing it in or it won't save the setting.

I was never hitting enter after typing it. Thanks for letting me know. I would type focus but it would reset to party1 because I did not hit enter.

Is this the same Smurfy who designed Super Inspect???

[HTeam]

What needs work on it?

[Depherios]

If I get lucky enough to get a beta invite (through random drawing or wowinterface) I'll end up taking a look, I really like the functionality this provides.

I can't guarantee anything though, I'm not a very good coder/scripter XD

[Meathead]

How do you open the options for MB?

[Anahka]

/mb, the Ace addons options button or the FuBar menu.

[Meathead]

Cant find the option to move from in the middle. Got IT! Alt Click :D

[HPAVC]

Hey,

i started working on a Multiboxer addon with some features of the original multiboxer and some new one.
All based on Ace.

You need this Addon on your Main and Alts/Slaves to use all functions
I have been honing a series of plugins for my addon as well for some time, working more to pitbull integration for a custom party frame of sorts and a candybars cooldown for the 9 characters (pets are ppl too) all on one screen (DOT uptime FTW). To show compass direction, follow state, focus working, etc. I adjust cameras during / out of combat / mounted / during aoe / after certain debuffs (eg, fear).

Implementing a loot filter like code (to leave quest items unlooted by the main toon) would be cool. Some annoying quests where I pickup items i cannot use that are BoP, that can still be looted by others are quite annoying.

[lacitpo]

I've got a feature request

For those who multibox, but do so with a varying group, rewriting macros could get to be a huge pain in the ass. I don't know if this is possible but would it be doable to implement some sort of multiboxing macro management into this addon. For example. A macro such as this.

/target [target=Brain, nodead, help, exists]; [target=Toon2, nodead, help, exists]; [target=Toon3, nodead, help, exists]; [target=Toon4, nodead, help, exists]; [target=Brain, exists]
/follow

The addon would rewrite the macro with the names of all the slaves and mains to represent the characters currently in the group. Maybe even a placeholder could be put in and upon forming the group, any pertinent addons would prompt the lead character to input which toon names should go where in each addon. It could even implement a system taking into account roles such as healer, tank, dps1, dps2, etc.

[smurfy]

hey, i know the development is currently stalled,

i am still new to multiboxing and shortly after starting multiboxing i started playing AoC :)
now i'm back in WoW but currently playing only my Main and my Multiboxing accounts a frozen.

but i think i will get back to multiboxing aswell.

a and by the way if you have "new" feature requests feel free to add them to the wiki (link in my sig)

[BodyART]

I certainly don't have problems! not anymore, not since finding out about Multiboxer v2. :)

I'm a new wow multi-boxer. I was interested in multi-boxing wow a week ago(after too long dual and triple boxing EQ,EQII, and DAoC), and the new RAF program made me leap at the opportunity to 5-box. I'm starting off small, however, and i'm 3-boxing first(Although I did run out and get four copies of wow battlechest, hhehe. best buy had it on sale for 29.99). I have a beefy quad-core pc and have all 3 clients running on one box flawlessly. My problem WAS(and stress "was") that sometimes combat would not end all the time for all 3 characters, and often autofollow would not resume after combat. I was upset, and pretty much resolved myself to manually taking my crew out of combat and hiting my autofollow key(using keyclone).

Multiboxer fixed both those problems. no idea what caused my autoattack lock issue, but I haven't had it since I installed multiboxer. I'm still learning the ropes, and I have a lot to learn both about multiboxing and about wow in general. I played wow off and on with a single account since the stress test weekends in 2004, but ultimately moved on to EQ2. I don't regret the move, but i'm finding it far more exciting now playing wow with a full team at my disposal than I ever did in eq2 dual-boxing.

As to the demise of multiboxer, I'll fight tooth and nail to prevent that. I have a past in coding, although currently I'm working a job out of the computer field so my skills aren't being upkept. I never did program in LUA, but have experience in python, VB/VBS, C/C++, and java. I might be willing to contribute to furthuring multiboxer if there is a need, if smurfy doesn't step back. :)

-BA



note: after posting I saw your post smurfy. :) offer stands open if you or anyone needs help coding for the forseeable future. I took some time to play AoC. I am a huge Robert E. Howard fan, and a big fan of conan. I was really excited about the game and absolutely LOVED the game world, combat mechanics, and all the fantastic art detail at launch. I was playing very happily for several weeks, until funcom started their gestapo-esk regime of bi-weeky nerfs and they redefined many of the classes. I played a ToS and was in agreement I was overpowered. by the time I quit I went from being able to solo clear a camp of 9 mobs to not being able to take on two without nearly dying. So much for the concept of an AoE healer. :P So I left. I opted for a better solution to my mmo needs, and found myself playing on an old school private EQ server for a week. then I came back to WoW. hehe. I think the RAF promotion will keep me easily for the 90 day triple xp bonus, which takes us into WotLK, which should keep me longer. looks like I"M BACK. :)

[Anahka]

Hey Smurfy,

Good to have you back. Was getting worried :)

If/When Multiboxer breaks for WotLK; hopefully you'll be around and willing to fix it. I have access to the beta if you want it tested btw. Problem is I have only account to mess around with.

[blast3r]

Even though it has an ugly gray box for it's background :) I like this addon. I love the auto-accept functions of it more than anything. It is nice to be able to 'share quest' and it just gets shared and you can see it update right there in the quest window. In the event suggestions are considered I would like to suggest adding a function that will let you abandon quests across all toons. I am lately finding I pick up a lot of quests and with RAF level so quick I end up having a huge mess to clean up. It would be nice to be able to abandon a quest from the main and ask you if you want to abandon it from the group as well. Not sure if that is even possible but I was thinking about that the other day when my quest logs seem to be in a constant full state.

[Ghallo]

I second that request - I would love to have the option to mass abandon a quest!

Also, being able to change the transparency/size of the gray window would be great.

Thanks for this addon - it is excellent!

smurfySmurfy,

Glad you are back. Just wanted to offer you my help with development. I've been starting to get into addons to do something very similar to what your's does. While I'm just ramping up on WoW addon writing, I'm a Software Engineer so I'm confident I'll be up to speed quickly. Just let me know if you are cool with help and I can look at getting some of the new features in.

Another one: bring back the old "auto accept escort quest" option. Current system doesn't work for those. It accepts them fine but the 4 alts don't get credit. 100% reproducable.

:)

[Fizzler]

Quick query as I seem to have an issue when after I'm done with a boxing session and log out - the next time I come to play all the settings have been reset. Is there a save button I'm missing? I go to chose their profile and its blank :/

The grey box I always move it to the bottom corner of my screen... but that always returns to the rest position.

Any help appreciated :)

X

...its also started to reset itself during when im online >.< :(
Resetting when it's online I can't help you with, but I've had addons with corrupted savedvariables files that won't save, and so, generate the default saved variables whenever I log... You should probably try to delete the savedvariables file for it.



Just a small thing with my favourite addon - when will the ugly grey box disappear? Can we make it transparent? or be able to resize somehow? It's just aesthetics :) Also, a nice feature would be to somehow hotkey the follow after combat option : for instance if I'm just mowing down mobs for dailies I want my alts to follow after combat, bet when I'm instancing I definately don't because the after combat follow kicks in even if I'm still in combat sometimes which leads to wipes.
I went in and manually modified the background color... along with the green color... and the name showing... and added names to some of the frames so they can be modified live, lol. If it's still the same, and if this helps, my line 1122 is what's changing my BG color.... I didn't bother to comment it, or remember how it originally was...


f:SetBackdropColor(0,0,0,.1);

It's not tough to go in and modify the colors though, just search for "color" in the LUA ^_^


(what mine looks like right now, doesn't show that the green for "following" is white now though XD)Very nice, thanks for the tip. BTW really nice UI setup u have there, what are you using for the party bars? I like the way they're out of the way but still really visible.


I wanted a transparent background. I went into MultiBoxer.lua and changed line 1121 from

f:SetBackdrop({ bgFile = "Interface\\Tooltips\\UI-Tooltip-Background", tile = true, tileSize = 16})

To:

f:SetBackdrop({ bgFile = "", tile = true, tileSize = 16})

I made a few font changes and dumped some text all together.

I use an eepanels like mod for backgrounds now.

I know next to nothing about LUA and addon developement in general but it seems to work.

Make sure you back up the orginal addon folder incase you need to restore it.

You can mess around with Width and Height around Line 1051 and 1052.

I use Notepad++ to edit the file it formats it nicely and numbers the rows.

[Hazard]

Confused here, Have you released this yet?

Sorry to souund like a n00b to this....probably becasue i am :DHe has included the download link in the first post.

[lacitpo]

I am guessing this could be my own unique problem but is anyone having issues with not being able t re-located multiboxer's window? No matter if I have it locked or unlocked, I can't get it to move.

[Leyuna]

have you tried pressing ALT?

[lacitpo]

I really thought I had but I'm a moron. Thanks for the tip that I am a moron for not figuring out.

[Stompp]

Okay, so I wanted a couple features and added them in. If smurfy gives his okay I'll release the version I have once I add a few more cosmetic things for myself. Here's a screenshot, it's not much... basically you can change the color via the gui and show/hide xp and xp percent, and I consolidated some display options in the settings page.

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3293/2800894084_6792094c5c_b.jpg

I think I'm going to add a border or something, and next is probably a transparency option. Smurfy, if you see this, PM me, I can just give you the changes I've made, if you're still developing this addon.

[Souca]

I'm gonna be working on questing code for my addon this weekend. If I get a solution for abandoning a quest on all characters I will be sure to share it for Multiboxer if Smurfy is still working on it. I'll also take a peek at escort quests, but I don't have this problem for some reason.

While I'm working on those, are there any other pressing requests?

- Souca -

[Anahka]

As far as I can tell the current "shared quests" system accepts the escort quest ok; i.e. it shows up in their quest log. However they don't get credit when the quest is over. The main does however. I think it's because the 4 alts accept the quest a split-second after the main does, and the quest guy usually started his I'm-walking-off-now routine by then.

However if I start the escort quest on just the main, the "X is starting Escort Quest Y" prompt pops up on the alts. And I can just accept those by using the accept-all macro.

Older versions of Multiboxer just auto-accepted those. Current version doesn't.

Problem occurs on every single escort quest. Can reproduce it 100% (if I find an escort Q that is). Happens for me and the other multiboxers on my server. Not a huge issue but annoying when you have to do the escort walk all over again.

[Simulacra]

good to see some dev on this :) I mentioned this before but I would really like toggable auto follow after combat even if it's just a script line like /script mb follow off. The prob I have is that in instances with the combat follow on somehow the alts get the idea that I'm not in combat even when I am and so follow the brain even after only killing 1 mob, this has caused a couple of wipes. I know I could go to each screen and toggle it manually at the start of an instance but I'm lazy :) plus it is the kind of thing you want to turn off and on quickly

I've pretty much decided that I'm going to start dev on my own addon. I know MB does a lot of the things already, but I think its good to have variety and we can all steal ideas from each other anyway >.< I'm keeping a list of things to do, and I don't think these will be that difficult to accomplish. Honestly I think the biggest thing for me will be spending time writing code instead of playing.

I've added the ability to see xp #'s and %'s as values and modify the color of the boxes and such with the gui. I'm working on some command line options as well. I threw a screenshot up above. Gonna do some cosmetic options too, options are always good.

Those changes look great. Hopefully you can share that with us or Smurfy will incorp. it into the official version. I love the idea of a toggle auto follow.



i also have issues with shared escort type quest not being auto accepted on slaves.

[Anahka]

Can you make it so the addon can be loaded per char? Instead of on or off per account?

[Joshaze]

Is anyone else experiencing a lot of Taint from this addon? I'm having what seems to be an excessive number of entries in my Taint log. Does this cause any overhead? I've included just one minute from the log. I assume this is triggering on Combat since I almost always see the message as soon as I go into Combat. Is there anything that can be done to fix the taint?

Yeah it taints a lot. I just ignore it after the warning message. Everything seems to be working ok.

Hey Guys,

Got to say I love this addon. I was thinking of a feature request but I am not sure if it is posible. Basically you know how we always have issues with specific group healing and the positions of party members etc. Well I was thinking, is it posible to store the party members of the "Leader" as global variables, or whatever the term is, and share them with the slaves.
EG.
p1=Razor1=Master
p2=Razor2
etc. This way you have the ability to party heal according to the display order of the party on the Master. You could then use p1 p2 etc in macro's.

Is it posible to do this?

RazorbaxNot sure I get the jist. You can already target based on Party numbers. The leader is always party1 and the rest fall in line in the order they were invited in the group. I have a simple /invite macro that invites in the same order each time as long as I am attentive to the party order I could target based on party numbers. In the mod readme I believe there is a /script for assigning party1 on the fly. I have not tried it though.

This isn't an issue if you 5-box, but if you only Dual-Quad Box then the party orders can vary greatly form what your Master see's to what your slave does.

I actually just did post on it that may explain better.

Wow I never knew this. Very important information as I was looking to change some of my macro's to use party2/3 etc.

My characters happen to be in the order of their creation so I never noticed.

Thanks for the info. I wonder how mods like liteassist target and assign assist maybe they are doing something that might translate into what we are wanting

[pewshamanper]

its now able to download on curse new version soon i hope

[smurfy]

hey,

about MultiBoxer:
as pulakiyah wrote, i just added multiboxer to cursegaming, i also try to get a version management up and running (curse or wowace)
i'm also in contact with Stompp, he will release a new version after tweaking some stuff.

about the Party Stuff:
its not possible to create a "P1" or other thing in macros. but it could be possible to create dynamic macros (out of combat) which switches the target.
i changed yesterday all "master" stuff to "focus" here what i do in detail:

i use 3 boxing on the same machine with octopus.
i have F5,F6,F7 to change my PiP.
each char has 3 macros for F5,6,7. For PiP shortkey F5 the F5 window has a macro which clears the focus for that window and the other 2 chars have on F5 /Focus <name of char 1>
same goes for F6 and F7.

So i could Press F6, octopus changes window to char 2 and char 1 and char 3 changes because of the F6 keypress the focus to char 2 and char 2 clears its own focus.
And i have a key which do a /follow focus :D

it works like a charm. i guess it also works without the pip feature.

smurfy

[Creazil]

Sounds great with some updates :)

Whoever this is for, Stompp or you Smurfy, i'll write it here. I am not sure if it's even possible, but I really like the way this addon get the whisper relay done! Thumps up! Anyway, I have the clickable version of whisper toggled and it would be awesome if I could avoid clicking the "author name" to rewhisper. Instead I'd like to be able to use the "Chat Reply" function, which is already implented in WoW .. which allows me to sign a keybinding, so I can rewhisper to the person, which whispers me.

i changed yesterday all "master" stuff to "focus" here what i do in detail:That would be rather dificult given the range of macro's that we all use. Is it posible to set up a macro template in the mod itself where we use the variable where we want it and then the mod writes the correct macro?

Is this something you guys would like to add?

[Fizzler]

Is the Raid Warning Follow break option working for anyone. I had it working once a long time ago and even after this new load it still does not work for me. i dumped the WTF and started from scratch and still nothing. Anyone else having this problem?

[smurfy]

@Fizzler

its working for me, but i had some problems with it myself, and i will change some stuff on that function i a couple of days, so try a later version. as i can say, Multiboxer sends the warning to the default raidwarning channel. so i guess some raid addon / move anything addon changed something?

@razorbax

1. WoW Restrictes macros and spells are only could cast by a button press.
2. Macros could be edited by Addons, but only if you out of Combat.

So i think your feature request is PVE only, because Restriction 2. make it very hard to do dynamic macro changing because you 90% in combat while doing PvP.
Ok i understand you problem like this:
If you use party1...4 for your healmacros you always have to relearn which user is which on the healer slave, if you use Playernames you are able to heal your master and slaves, but you cant heal your guild/pug members.

So as you can't trigger because of restriction 1 you slave to heal playerX you have to alter the macros on the slave. the easiest way could be you have one heal button and 4 dynamic target buttons. the 4 targeting buttons are bound to a macro which will be created/altered by an addon.
Another way is that the Master stores some kind of macro library for the slaves and you could use an update macros on slaves button.

I think its could be possible to create a addon or feature to multiboxer which allows the master to create the macro templates (i think the macro completly but with a special TAG in it which will be replaced with the playername of the masters playerorder)
I will doing some testing this week and hope i could add a feature like that in the future.

PS. I am only after button press macro's, not automation. I want to fill up my X-Keys Pro;)

Thanks for the updates guys

[Fimlys]

I was wondering if it would be possible to add this feature? This is kinda hard to explain, but i will try.

how about adding some buttons next to each secondary toon that has multiboxerv2 installed
then on each other instance, you assign macros or a spell or somesuch (see assigning clicks in healbot) to the button..
When you click that button on the main system, it does the spell/macro/etc..

I think this would be useful for people who are more used to clicking than using hotkeys. I use both normally and have found it harder to handle without something like this. It would be nice if it was configurable how many to show, etc.

[cheeseprophet]

Ok another request, sounds easier then the others to me :D

A version for the main so you dont have the useless options, or some option you can check for toon or main?

Great work on this addon :D!

[smurfy]

@Fimlys

you mean you press the button with the mouse on the main and the slaves do a cast? , Not possible! :D
or what exactly you mean?

@cheeseprophet

i have no main, all chars have the same addons and i could switch in ~ 1 sec the current "main"
so what option do you think is useless? you could disable most of the function you don't need.

smurfy

[Mystrana]

I think what Fimlys is after is what Bencast use to do put a icon up near the party member in your group that would flash heal renew or decurse or shield ( icon on all party frames)
but intead have a spell or Macro set instead of healing and all members of said party but have it on the "main" at the time and all cast it

[cheeseprophet]

Ye well it might be useless but would be nice addition :D
you dont need to redirect whispers with ur main u know that kinda thing etc :)

[Abyssal]

- Auto complete / accept Quests after rightclicking on Questgiver

Is it possible to turn this off? the auto accept part. I like to see if it's a quest I want to spend the time doing first (ie: 5box friendly)


*edit* I just took out the line in the .lua, works :)

[asonimie]

Hey is anyone else having this problem...

I 5 box on 1 system with 5 wow folders, keyclone, maximizer with PIP running and I switch PIPs between the 5 character equally when pvping and questing. I installed multiboxer for quest / FP sharing. It worked great last night.. now I log in and 3/5 characters/instances had their MBv2 settings cleared out. I went back in and clicked the options I wanted on those 3 instances (using "focus" as my leader determinant btw). I PIPd back to my main... booted up a NPC quest chat... and once again the same 3 instances had the multiboxer settings cleared out already. I created profiles on each instance and saved them... same thing happened. I have the mod installed in the 5 different folders.. so it seems weird that I'm having the same problem on multiple accounts. Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks!

[Lumpa]

When you spam your dps-macros, filling up the Multiboxer window with ".. not ready yet" etc, it gets laggy (not wow, but the addon). The errormessages continues to show up long after you stop "spamming" your macro and incoming whispers are put in that queue and delaying them, sometimes for up to a minute if I'd been spamming away passionly.

Can I shorten the time each errormessage are showed in the Multiboxer window somehow or perhaps even filter out whats being showed and not? Btw, I've tried with errormonster etc to disable the messages on the toon, but they're still shown on the addon.

No one else had trubble with this? Don't you hammer your keyboards? ;D

And finally, THANKS for this awsome addon!

[Frosty]

I spam my dps macro a LOT, but haven't run into this problem yet.

[puppychow]

i've always played with the MB window hidden, i use pitbull and can see with that whether party members are in range and what their hp/mana is. since im in my mid 60s XP doesn't matter, there is always just sooo much more left lol :)

just basically use the taxi and quest features, makes it easy (70 main, i set my "favorite slave" as the party master and he does all the quest stuff)

[chris_c21]

Just want to say I downloaded this addon lastnight after work, and so far I am loving it. Auto accepting group invites means 1 less macro to have on my slave, and the auto-follow after combat is awesome, since I usually switch windows mid fight and move my slave up next to me. What else... Oh! The selecting the same options when I right-click the quest giver/flight master on both toons is nice as well.

Awesome job Smurfy!

[Achor84]

I have a feature request.

When your alts are low at Hp/Mana (or have aggro??) - a raidwarning should be send out.
"<Char> is at 30%HP, help him!"

Stompp's feature would be also a cool info.

When I look in the future to patch 3.X, is this mod still working or will we become problems?

[Nalovan]

I installed this thing from curse client and I have a box in the middle of the window and it wont go anywhere. I cant even move it? Is there a detailed description of this anywhere.

Pretty much, all I did was add xp display and ability to change color... there was a lot I wanted to do, but apparently rl has other plans for me lately :(

[firest4rter]

Just a quick post to let you know I love this add on and hope to see it continue. I have become addicted to watching the multiboxer UI whilst questing and just in general play to see the feed back from quest objectives or out of range casts etc.

As a multi boxer ad don this has everything I need and more. I don't use the trade feature as I find it a bit laggy, not sure if anyone else uses this, perhaps it can be removed?

I use the pitbull integration, and although I am 70 and don't care much for XP I can see it works well and will be neat as I lvl to 80.

I see there are a couple of other addons that are following a simular line to this one. This one definetly gets my vote and I hope to see it continue to be supported as we go into 3.0 WOTLK and beyond.

Great Work. Cheers FIRE.

[blabj]

Hi just dropping in to say thanks for the addon, it's really useful, especially the trading section, takes a lot of the alt-tabbing out of shifting items around!

[kriscorrie]

Firstly, thanks for all your efforts on this addon, it looks like it has real potential!

Unfortunately, i just donwloaded it yesterday, and i cant seem to get it working as intended. I have two accounts on one computer, seperate wow folders. I have multiboxer installed in both addons folders.

The grey box is displayed for both toons! And the party information, like a line of text saying the party members names is written in the grey box.

But if i attempt to share a quest, nothing happens, i still need to go to my second instance of wow, and click accept in the quest window?

I thought the purpose of this addon in part was to auto accept quest shares,

more than likely im doing something really stupid, but i cant find any documentation for this addon, so not really sure where else to try!

Hope someone can help,

much appreciated.

I have a question about this add on. I would like to know if it's possible to change it to group loot that way every one can level when it gets turned it. Correct me if I am wrong though but I thought this might work out like this.

[MoonD0G]

I have a question about this add on. I would like to know if it's possible to change it to group loot that way every one can level when it gets turned it. Correct me if I am wrong though but I thought this might work out like this.I don't really understand what you're asking. Making it Free for All (FFA) has nothing to do w/ turning in quests (I think that's what you're talking about...?). It gets set to FFA so that you can loot everything on your main instead of having to mouse over/switch to your other toons and loot on them. Of course if you are doing a collection quest, you will have to do that for the alts to loot the items they need.

Anyways, there are options and you can turn it off automatically switching to FFA, just type in /mb to get the options box. This will also answer your question kriscorrie. You just need to go in on each char and set the options for each one.

[Hachoo]

You don't have to turn on group loot to loot quest items. What I do is leave FFA on, and then loot everything on my main. Once my main is full of quest items, I loot everything on my main still but then switch over to the window of the next toon that needs to loot quest items - if the corpse is still sparkly after my main looted it, there is quest item(s) on it, otherwise not.

There shouldn't be any need to turn it on group loot as far as that's concerned.
The only reason you would run into any problems is when you get those quest items that can continuously be looted even after you've collected what you need (can't think of any off hand). In that case, all you have to do is loot what you need on main, then loot on your alts as needed for their quest items (even simpler don't auto loot on main and take everything out but the quest item, then loot w/ alt).

You don't have to turn on group loot to loot quest items. What I do is leave FFA on, and then loot everything on my main. Once my main is full of quest items, I loot everything on my main still but then switch over to the window of the next toon that needs to loot quest items - if the corpse is still sparkly after my main looted it, there is quest item(s) on it, otherwise not.It's even better when the quest mobs are beasts and your main is a skinner. If he can skin it, no quest item, if he can't, an alt needs to loot. :thumbsup:

I'm new to boxing and have read alot on the forums and dont think im doing to bad. But I tryed to down load the addon and cant seem to get it to work. So I tried another addon. Now I cant get any new addons I down load to work. They wont even show up on my addon screen for wow. They are in the folder with all the others just dont work. Can anybody help me out with this?? Thanks.

But if i attempt to share a quest, nothing happens, i still need to go to my second instance of wow, and click accept in the quest window?

I thought the purpose of this addon in part was to auto accept quest shares,

more than likely im doing something really stupid, but i cant find any documentation for this addon, so not really sure where else to try!



I am doing dailies up in sunwell. So lets say I have completed all of the dailies and am in the process of turning them in.

I go to the turn-in npc and right click on him with the master account. The quest pops up. Should I also see the quest pop up on my second account ? (this is after I have double checked bot accounts to make sure that they all have the same features turned on, of course)

The only thing that I can not get working is the follow settings. When a slave can not follow, I do not get the raid warning from the slave. Any ideas on this?

[warzer]

The Feature is that, you can share Quests (Button at the Questlog) and your Toons will automaticly accept.

I'm new to the Multi'ing community, and I have to say I LOVE this mod so far! The answer to the question I'm about to pose may be in here, but I don't have the patience to sift through 13 pages, I want to get on and play! 8o

1. Why can I not specify a certain too for the Whispers to be directed to? Every time I type in my main's name it defaults back to "party1". That's okay in most instances, but when one of my other slaves needs lead so I can have everyone following them it will "break" it.

2. Same goes for AutoFollow after combat. I only use one PC and am using a suggestion for PLing my alts by running them through instances ... and if I AutoFollow the Main after combat ends the alts would aggro. As of right now I have to Alt+Tab to each and take them off AutoFollow (Yes, I need to get a second PC or at least another monitor, I know 8| ).

3. I've seen and tried scripts for all slaves to click on a questgiver and accept, as well as turning in, but I can never get it to work smoothly. The "SharedGossip" portion of MB v2 seems to be broken for me if it's trying to do that, dunno why.

4. Is there a way to implement a slave AutoLoot? A beautiful thing to be able to do would be for them all to try and loot the nearest "sparkly" for faster looting of not only quest pieces, but of an AoE kill. I know I know, I shouldn't worry about looting if I want fast levels, but I *hate* leaving ANYTHING on corpses, lol. That and a few times where I looted a random mob in a pack I came up with a decent blue...

5. Keep it up, I love people like you for making a daunting task of 5-boxxing easy for us that are too easily baffled by this sort of thing :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: !

You might get better results from Jamba - I do not think this addon is still being updated/maintained.
