Hey all! basically simple macros or any way possible for when my main dies and I have to switch to any random of my slaves to take charge of the group.I looked around but got more confused with the methods I found. I have a small team of 7 DKs and Druids. Would be nice to just change mains with a couple of presses and be back on the fight after my main gets killed so my team dosent just stand around getting picked off. This is for WoW btw
The other thing they'll need to know is the software you are using, IsBoxer, Hotkeynet, etc.
If you look up FTL (believe it stands for focusless, targetless, leaderless) here in the forum you will find quite a bit. IsBoxer can do it automatically for WoW and if you PM Lax he can give you a 7 day trial to try it out.
Yes sorry forgot to mention I use Isboxer as well.
Then it's already built into your setup assuming you used the Quick Setup Wizard to set up your team.Quote:

All I do is just change windows, and that becomes the master for all the focus and target assist.
Ok my issue would be on the window layout?
Are you unable to switch widows, or is your active window not becoming the "main" widow(not swapping as you are wanting?)
No, assist and follow is handled by macros that are written by ISBoxer. If this isn't working for you then the first place to start would be for you to share your profile.Quote:

I can change to any of my windows fine but each window lets me control only that toon that I change to. It doesn't automatically make the rest follow or assist.

not sure if thats what u guys said u needed lol am a noob
Bit hard to see what is assigned to your character set, because you have selected to not include it. It is better to include it. You can "anonymise" it by selecting the "hide" options.
That said, from what is in there, it looks like it should work fine. You switch to the next window, press ALT+F for follow, and the toons should follow the new active character. ALT+A should make them assist the new main. And your hotkeys on 1 to = should "auto assist" the new main and throw out the associated skill on that in game bind.
The only reason is wouldn't work (from what I can see there), would be if you switch to the next window and you have Key Maps turned off (although that should be difficult as the Activate Maps mapped key should be turning them on and off across all windows at the same time).
I guess another potential option would be if you have your toons logged into the wrong slots, but if you did this, when you loaded your team up, ISBoxer will put out a chat message saying that Toon xyz was found when it expected Toon abc, but if that was happening, then you should see your toons trying to follow or assist the wrong characters, not nothing at all.
got it it was in game macros that were sending my slaves to go back to my main i had over looked them . Erase them and now is working right, thank you so much guys. noob mistake
I just wanted to add that i'd suggest using plain F1-F? for swapping your active slot. Easier to do in a panic when the lead dies than more complex systems, yet up out of your way most of the time.
