[skislope]

Is there a macro you can make like /jamba invite /jamba disband? i cant seem to get one to work, just been doing it manually by opening jamba to form my party but it would be nice to have it as a macro to just click. thx.

/jamba-team

Click the help tab at the top; it should show you a list of slash commands.

The ones you want are probably (from memory, could be wrong)

/jamba-team invite
/jamba-team disband

HTH Jafula.

[jstanthr]

to break group, its easier to make a macro for each toon and bind it to like the opposite of your invite macro. the script command for disband is

/script LeaveParty()

thats the one i've always used. i haven't used the one inside jamba (didn't know there was one actually)
jamba actually has so so many features i didn't even know existed until i started looking through it earlier, because of this thread actually.

I would like to give a huge thanks to Jafula for making the add-on and keeping it update for us. I couldn't imagine doing things the way i used to before i learned about jamba. Everyone should try to donate a little something to jafula for his work. i have and probably will again soon.

KEEP UP THE ROCKIN" WORK!!!!!

In ISBoxer try doing Shift+Alt+F to make sure you do not have follow strobing on. Also in the jamba follow settings, make sure it's set to not auto follow or anything (mine is set to auto follow after comba) but when i do the repeat step back, it breaks and sticks, as long as i don't click one of the other windows.

Sorry i couldn't be of much help

I ended up disabling the Jamba follow module and creating a new ISBoxer character set with all following options disabled.

[Wha]

the item bar.
is this just a extra action bar? or a quest items only bar?

at first it thought it was a action bar that if on my main if i placed spells in it and just clicked it with my mouse it would do that for my slaves as well. but it didnt.

so im just curiouse whats the benefit of it?

Whatever you want to put on the Jamba Bar works.
Well - almost whatever; it has to be a game object that is somewhere in your inventory.

I've used it for click activated quest items.
Have a single character drag their item onto the bar.
Which has each of the others do the same.
Then (via a mouse Repeater Region) over the entire frame, click the item on any toon and they all click it too.

I've also got the AV Trinket (which hearths you to just outside your last flag by your general) on the bar.
It is definitely not one of the two best trinkets, but it is useful for the teleport feature.
Click the trinket once on the bar, and you equip it.
Thirty seconds later, your toons can use it (via another click).

I've had Flasks and Stat foods on the Jamba bar.
You could go with your Hearthstones if you wanted.

Clicking the item bar requires a repeater region. The built in usage is with hotkeys which you define in the WoW Keybindings menu. As Ualaa said, it can be used for any kind of item.

I've used it for quest items, potions, food, hearth stones, equipping new gear, learning new pets/mounts, opening the All Hallows handful of candy and the bags from the Headless Horseman and a bazillion other things.

Macros can be used in the item bar, however, they need to be in the same location in your WoW Macro panel. For example, I make a mount macro and call it "Mount". Because of how I've got all my other macros named, "mount" sits in slot 7 on my main, slot 3 on my healer, slot 3 on dps1, slot 4 on dps2, slot 6 on dps3. If I drag that mount macro to my Item bar, it will call whatever is in slot 6 of my macros panel for everyone, so only my main is going to mount. My other guys are doing things like dropping Tremor Totem and trying to cast CC, because that's what they have in that location. But, if I rename the macro to "A", making it the first macro slot for everyone, then they all use the proper macro. It works the same with summoning Companions.

However, you can drag a spell directly from your spellbook and the location doesn't seem to matter. For example, Judgement is in two different "slots" of my spellbook for my Ret and Prot paladins. But if I pull Judgement out of my spellbook and drop it on my bar, everyone gets the Judgement Icon in their bar and both my ret and prot cast Judgement. If I drag Arcane Torrent {the racial} out, all my Blood Elves will use it. If I pull out Autoattack, everyone will use it. It works this way with professions, as well. If I drag out Jewelcrafting, it opens the JC panel on my JCs and nothing for anyone who doesn't have Jewelcrafting.

[Jafula]

" ... It works the same with summoning Companions."

Really? I though I had that sussed. I remember spending a while tweaking it to get it too work (the recent reworked version) with mounts and companions. Damn, I'll have to have another look at that.

[Khatovar]

It looks like it. I'll check again, but when I summoned a snake on my main, some did snakes, some did chickens, so it wasn't working like the spellbook where if someone didn't have it, they wouldn't do anything. I didn't check on pulling mounts out of the panel.

OK, it looks like I need more coffee before my first post of the day.

If I have the companion/mount on the slaves, it will use that one.
If I don't, it will use whatever is in that slot.

For example, my main and slaves 1 & 2 have the Albino Snake, which happens to be the first companion on the first page. Slaves 3 & 4 don't. When I pull the snake out of the panel, slaves 1 & 2 get it in their item use bar. Slaves 3 & 4 put in whatever they have in that slot {Blue Mini Jouster and Ancona Chicken}.

But, everyone has the Feline Familiar from All Hallows {main - 1st slot, page 3, slave 1 - last slot, page 2, slave 2 - 1st slot page 3, slave 3 - 3rd slot page 1, slave 4 - middle of page 2}. If I drag that out, it doesn't matter where it is, everyone will summon it.

If I try to summon something that a slave doesn't have and in a slot they don't "have", that slave gets this error
