Thread: Targeted AoE...

  1. #11

    Default

    great addon if it works out, haven't tried yet, but I've got a question. Targeted AoE spells require you to leftclick on the ground where you want it. Would I still need to use a mouse broadcasting program, like ISBoxer, or use Keyclone's, or will there be an option to set a keybinding to cast? Reason I ask is cause Keyclone's mouse broadcaster is slow on my rig and I haven't invested time into trying ISBoxer, and would rather not have to worry about too many extra programs running in my background eating up what Ram/CPU usage I have left. Another thing, when I try to use the broadcaster through KC, it sometimes bogs my system down, and/or makes the camera angles on my toons jump around from where I have them set. Would this program cause those problems?

    There is a macro command you can use to keybind a mouse click at your mouse's current location.
    Previously this has not been much used since the mouse is usually at the side of the window where ever you moved it off to your other windows (when software boxing, since hardware boxers can just click manually anyway, or broadcast).

    But with this addon, I would just dust off that macro again and use that for it.
    Can't remember the exact macro, but I know it exists.

    EDIT: After thinking about it some more, I realized this addon doesn't actually move the mouse, so you would still have to first somehow preplace where the mouse position would be remembered as, just like in the past for using the macro mentioned. But still, the addon makes it far more versatile.

    The addon puts your target under the mouse by moving the camera, so the clickmouse binding would work. The mouse coordinate is always on the screen somewhere whether or not you can actually see the pointer, so it works pretty well to get the target under the mouse.

    The addon needs quite a bit of refinement but it's actually quite a nice proof of concept. Fairly interesting idea I might pursue learning a bit more lua to mess with it a little.

    Ok, I had no idea there was a macro command already, and the fact this doesn't violate the ToS is sweet. Please anyone that knows this macro, post it or something. I'll keep my cursor dead center-bottom screen right at my slave's feet and use this for my DK team. The enemies would be right up on them anyway, so casting DnD at their own feet won't be a problem now.

    Except that I currently have a viewport addon set up that puts frames around all sides of my screen, so unless i put extra effort into placing the mouse for each one, they are generally outside the clickable area.
    My own fault, I know.

    Should be on these forums somewhere, I'll try a search.

    Edit: Well, a quick search came up with this recently resurrected old thread, so I'm not sure if it works anymore. But I'm pretty sure a similar macro is still possible.

    havent been able to get it to work. /pnklook snaps the camera infront of my face.
    I am on a Mac so i dont have mouse boadcasting. I was hoping this would help with
    /click options ButtonObj MouseButton DownbuttonName = GetMouseButtonClicked();so how.

    Thought I'd post my results along with some thoughts.

    The better this starts to work, the more likely I'd suggest that blizz finds a way to limit this functionality. Just a conjecture.

    That said, I like it a lot and hope you or others figure out a way to improve this so that it works a bit better and less buggy. I ended up getting stuck with my camera oriented 180 degrees in the wrong direction and had to relog to fix the issue. Some sort of /pnklook configure command would be good that set the camera to some sort of "safe" default position prior to executing the algorithm might be helpful.

    Secondly, there still is the issue of a good keybind option. I searched around and found a few things about binding mouse-clicks to keys but didn't follow through to really try it. Maybe tonight. all in all, cool work and keep it up.

    I love the concept.

    Really doubt Blizzard would consider this a bot. Their main definition of a bot is a program that doesn't require any outside assistance to run. IE: It can walk, kill, loot, etc without anyone being at the keyboard. This addon would require you to be at the keyboard and isn't that automatic or precise in my humble opinion to be considered a bot.

    Unlike an aimbot WOW already has built in a /target function. As long as you're facing the right way then simply /target accomplishes what an aimbot does. If this automatically faces you in the right direction )which I didn't see it doing in the video) then you may have an issue but otherwise it's a solution to an age old problem.

    ISBoxer makes it quite easy to mousebroadcast for AOE just by holding down 1 key. You don't even need a mouse repeater region to do AOE in ISBoxer you can have just have mousebroadcast for that 1 spell.

    Here's how you set it up-it's around halfway through the tutorial.

    OK well how about this, instead of targeting a specific mob, can it either be set up to target your "focus" or whoever your focus is targeting?
