ISBoxer Toolkit - Zero to Hero in 30 minutes Setup.

As stated with toggle is there a way to intergrate a pause button so you can type. I mean when i hit certain buttons if its a self cast or something it does it. Something like keyclone would be awesome so when i hit the number 1 thru = buttons i dont cast anything at all. My locks are the case number 6 is life tap if i do anything like that they do lifetap lol just seeing if theres a pause button kinda thing that can be keymapped.

Two problems I'm having are that the WoW clients won't accept input from any other programs once launched through Innerspace. Tested with Keyclone, HotKeyNet and a few other programs I use. Also, (probably just because I'm missing the option) but I can't see a way to disable mouse-click-window-swapping. Even once ISB/Innerspace has been completely shut down it keeps swapping with click.

One request that could make things a bit more user friendly is if you could add a toggle feature similar to the repeater popup in-game (with checkboxes for FTL, etc) to record keystrokes and add them to the broadcast list. The 1-0 keys are enabled via the quick wizard, but I found having to go through ISBoxer manually add keymaps for 100+ keystroke combinations pretty time consuming.

1. Inner Space is running as Administrator, and so that means WoW is going to run as Administrator. That means that in order for other programs to interact with it, they too must run as Administrator -- be it input device software (e.g. logitech, x-keys, razer software), or keyclone or hotkeynet.
2. The mouse click window swapping is configured in your Window Layout. You can have it set to "Always" swap (which includes alt+tab and mouse clicking, etc), only "when I press a Slot activate hotkey" (configured per Slot in your Character Set), or "when I press ______". If it's not set to "Always", then it's not going to swap when you click.
3. I agree, and there is a feature planned for this, but then again if you're adding 100+ keystroke combinations, you might be better off just using Key Repeat in the first place instead of making 100+ individual mappings? There's probably a way to streamline your configuration instead of hundreds of mappings, so maybe we're having the wrong discussion. I have roughly 10-20 that I use on a regular basis, and another 10-20 that I rarely use -- numbers depending on the team I'm playing. If you're using a different key to heal a different character, for example, and 5 different sets for 5 different heals, and a bunch of different buffs, then perhaps we should teach you about healer addons (e.g. vuhdo) and Repeater Regions.

It's actually Shift+Alt+M and Shift+Alt+F, but it doesn't sound like your issue will be solved by doing any of that, unless you had already hit Shift+Alt+M to disable key maps.

Is something going to happen that i actually will see? I dont feel any diffrent.

You want exactly 1 copy of WoW. There are no performance gains to be had by using multiple folders -- there are many layers of caching on your PC from the OS to the actual hardware, and using multiple folders will prevent those caching systems from doing their job, resulting in worse performance. The reason to use multiple folders is to have multiple configurations, which ISBoxer solves by providing the concept of Virtual Files -- giving you the benefits of multiple configurations, with the performance benefits of a single folder. You may have read about "symbolic links" (symlinks) and "junctions" and how they can be used to make multiple folders work more like 1 folder, which is a good idea for software that does not provide Virtual Files (i.e. everything but Inner Space), but still requires extra work on your part to set it up, and it can still be a pain in the ass on patch days. You haven't read anything about using multiple folders with ISBoxer because it's a bad idea and completely unnecessary.

Only if it's not broken.

Quick recap from spoon being on IRC, he's using a Swedish keyboard layout. For some people with multiple languages configured in Windows, ISBoxer happens to get launched in a different language mode than WoW happens to get launched in. e.g. one is in Swedish mode and one is in English mode. For most people, regardless of the keyboard layout, ISBoxer and WoW are running in the same language mode and this isn't an issue, but what happens is ISBoxer will output the key binding configuration in one language, and then in the game that's set in the other language, the key bindings would have to be in the other language. The fix isn't all that complicated, they just need to be in the same language mode. You can turn on the Language Bar in Windows to see the language any given app is using (right click on taskbar, and Language Bar is under Toolbars).

Ive redone it all, meaning i reinstalled Innerspace and ISBoxer, now running on 1 wow, (took the other folder away) and now it works like a charm

Still awaiting the update so that i can run my own keyboard layout ;P

Thanks for all the help!

Guys, a quick question about ISBoxer because i'm problly gonna start using it soon:

- Does it work with vista ultimate 64 bit? Or are there know issues?
- Does it have an option to save different settings? If yes, can you export these to a file or are they saved on your computer?

Thx in advance

Ciao

I use it on windows 7 64-bit with no problems(as long as it is run as administrator), so I see no reason why it will not work on windows vista 64-bit

I am not sure if it has an option to save different settings. I do however export my team to a file on my hard drive after I finish making a setup or configuring a setup. This way all I have to do is load isboxer, load my saved profile, export to innerspace and load profile from innerspace

Is there any way to extend the virtual config files to include the UI? Or another function to save UI/Addon settings and import/export between clients?

Getting all the addons, particularly grid and raid windows, sync'd with less tweaking would be great.

I tried to set up Mouse Broadcasting today and I have some problem with it. Whenever I turn on mouse broadcasting the pointer just stands there studdering makes it impossible to move the mouse. If I turn of mouse broadcasting it works fine again, but makes it impossible to use Mouse Repeater Regions as I got the same problem when I move the mouse to such area.
I tried changing from Multiplicity to Input Director, but same problem.
I use 5 computers with 4x 19" (1284x1024) and 1x 22" (1680x1050) tried setting main display to same resolution as the others but same problem.

Any idea what could be the problem?

Virtual files makes different files for each character or account -- in other words, if you want to sync some, virtual files will not be the answer. I don't know that much about syncing UIs and such between clients but I've heard there's tools to help with it?

The issue you're having is that you're turning on Mouse Repeat on multiple PCs, and each of them has a foreground window. Any time the cursor moves in the foreground window with Mouse Repeat on, the movement is going to be sent to the Repeater Targets ("all other" unless you change it). That means when you move the mouse on PC 1, the mouse moves on PC 2, which then re-broadcasts it.

The solution is to enable repeating from the "Current Window" instead of "all windows"
