yea, try the first post of this thread
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
Unless I'm missing some obscure setting....I don't think auto-accepting of escort quest is working.
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.
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)
Group invites work fine yeah, once you add the main to the alts friends list.
does this only work with englisch wow client or also with other languages?
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
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.
Works also with other languages..Quote:

Works fine with the german ones.
Thanks for this Addon, works great on my german WoW Client and makes multiboxing so much easier.Quote:

Works fine with the german ones.
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.
you must check that option @ your main too to get the message
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
@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
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!!
Did you make sure to add your clone to your main's friends list, and vice versa? That is what fixed this for me. :DQuote:

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.
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.
- 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
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
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
@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.)
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?
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.
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.
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
damn :/
thanks anyway
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.Quote:

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 :)
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.
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.Quote:

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.
I've tried Pitbull but cant find the option to split group members :?Quote:

Might have a go now :D
: nope, deffinately not there unless im blind.
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.
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?
and now its telling me non stop for the last 10 mins "you are already there"
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.
@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?
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:)
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.Quote:

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.
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
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
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 :)
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.
