ISBoxer question

[blkgoblin]

Hey i just set up my ISboxer and was wondering do anyone know how to take off auto follow off....im dualboxing right now and my slave will not stop following me....i would like to keep it going but need to know how to control it, just in case i dont want it on....and also does anyone know if this software could pass over keys to the other screen(running two monitors not PC's) and if so...how?


Trying to figure out also is there a way to pass the mouse movement to both toons....i use the mouse to move the characters and was wondering is there a software or a way to use one mouse for two toons?


and last but not least is there a way to auto accept quest for both toons instead of me jumping screens?

any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

you are probably using Jamba and the command to stop it is:

/jamba-follow strobeoff all

I think. You will still have to manually break follow after issuing this command, but it wont refollow unless you change windows (sounds like you have auto follow enabled with window change)

If you used the setup wizard the command Shift+Alt+F will toogle the auto follow strobe on/off.

You'll get a better response in the appropriate forum - moving thread.

ISBoxer has a mouse repeating ability but I don't believe it has the ability to give you mouse movement (other than click to move) on more than 1 character. Even if it did server lag is going to result in some serious frustration as the longer you run the more the characters will seperate, even if they start in the exact same position.
Most boxers use a follow macro and then the arrow (movement) keys to finalize positions or break follow. If you have the basics of ISBoxer down then you just need to pick a "leader selection" method and create a follow macro for it. There are several examples of the basic macros required for of all the methods in the "Macros and Addons" section.

Leader Selection Methods:
Focus Based Hydra (simple to setup, may be slow in PvP when refocusing a new leader, works in raids and for solo play, sacrifices focus in PvE/PvP, though generally not gamebreaking in any respect)
FTL (ISBoxer has a quick setup for this built in, highly versatile but can be a pain to setup initially, great in raids/and for solo play PvE and PvP)
Target/Assist Party Leader (many drawbacks especially when you join a raid wheere you might end up in different parties, easiest setup but you'll probably give it up before you leave the noob zones.)
There are more but these are a few of the most common.

ISBoxer gives you full mouse control, not just sending a click, so yes it will let you use mouselook on all screens at once. Otherwise correct: you will not be able to get your characters facing the exact same direction and at the exact same point in the world, without hacks.. and different windows will probably lag at different moments, so even if they did, they wouldn't stay together. The entertainment value, however, is worth it

Excellent deal on the mouse look thing, thanks for the clarification Lax. I looked at the videos and wasn't 100% sure it was an ability usable in ISBoxer, but now I know it is, if only blizz could synchronize lag for boxers

I've sometimes left mouse repeat on, and turned one toon, which has them all turn.

Having accidently done that, I do it on purpose with the shoot the Vrykul out of the sky in Icecrown daily.
Just to move them all away from the edge, before turning follow strobe back on.
Turning it on, right on the edge, has one of the toons run off of the edge, which was funny but not something I want to repeat a bunch.
