A guide to IS Boxer (Long)

[Ualaa]

@dRiN
Not really sure that it's heavy on the CPU usage. I haven't noticed if it is, but my system is pretty good for warcraft.



@JackBurton
I've not used any sounds with IS Boxer, sorry.

There isn't really an advantage to multiple folders from a performance point of view. Multiple folders, with symbolic links, gets you different configuration options. However, you can do file virtualization with IS Boxer.

It is really easy. In the top pane, expand virtual files and then click on Config.WTF. Then in the top pane, expand characters and drag them down to the bottom left frame. I virtualize my files as, "Config-ToonName-ServerName.WTF".

If you'd prefer to use your F drive, instead of your C drive, you can change the path. Right click the Inner Space crosshairs, on the task bar. Select Configuration. Go to the Game Configuration tab. Select World of Warcraft from the drop down menu. Then select default profile, from the drop down menu again. Edit the "main executable path" to the F drive folder.

Thank you ualaa, I prefer to have another folder for multi-boxing as I have a main raiding toon. I am not sure whether using ISboxer and Jamba addon will affect the raiding too. In the near future, I will move the wow folder into the SSD drive.

Thanks Ualaa, for the guide. I just bought InnerSpace and used you as a referral.

I'm switching from keyclone and to ISBoxer and having some issues.


First, let me say that I have macros for
1 through =
shift+1 through shift+=
alt+1 through alt+=
ctrl+1 through ctrl+=


So I followed this guide and used the FTL system (I switching to this system).

So far it works and I can quickly switch leaders and all the toons will follow.

However, I can only use 0 through = . I can't seem to use my macros bound to the shift, ctrl, and alt.

So I'm not sure how to fix this. Any advice?

[daanji]

Never mind!

I figured out my issue. I changed the hotkey and the name, but didn't change the output!

Doh! This wasn't obvious to me at first, I'm still learning the IsBoxer ropes so to speak.

Thanks.

Very nice guide Ualaa. I signed up with referring you as well.
Now off to make my custom Clickbar images.

Hmm, I seem to be having trouble with mouse 4 and mouse 5.

On the isde of my mouse, I have two buttons, mouse 4 & 5. I want these clicks to be passed to all clients when I press it.

However, doesn't seem to be working for me.

I added the new buttons to an existing keymap and made sure the input / output were set correctly.


Also, maybe this was mentioned in the guide, but perhaps I didn't see it or maybe I didn't understand.


How I do suspend FTL follow? Sometimes when I do heroics, I don't want the slaves to follow the leader. I want to park them in a spot and have them stay. Is there a FTL toggle button?

Ok, looks like I found my own answer. So I'll leaving this here in case anyone else has the same issue.

A previous thread discussed this topic: http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=28621

Also, Jamba strobes the /follow . To toggle it, simply hit shift+alt+f
