Mecurio's Cataclysm Multiboxing Macros

[Bollwerk]

I'm also confused why you have "/assist focus" in your macros if you're using ISBoxer.

He has ISBoxer and KC.

/assist focus is in there because when you do 10 man raids boxing you need to have dps attacking targets that are different than your tanks. This is an issue I have with Isboxer right now. I need to have my dps focus Merc while I offtank and using FTL will not work because it always uses your mains target. I just sent a message about how to fix that problem. With Cat we will need crowd control and if my alts only target what my tank targets it wont work. BTW Merc has disabled FTL and just uses focus because trying to focus on others with FTL is a pain in the ass. I am trying to get it figured out because it's not working with the new macros now.

My raiding setup uses ISBoxer and I use a combination of FTL , StickyTargeting, DPS on Focus, and Manual Assisting.

I would be interested to see how you set it up. With the old click macros I was able to set a focus and dps other targets. Now I have to use this proc macro setup I cannot use my old focus method. I really don't want to lost FTL because its amazing.

Could you be so nice and take some print screens from ISBoxer, or right click and copy to clipboard and paste the settings here. I would love to try out your macros, but I'm just confused about the ISBoxer settings.

This used to be a post about how to set up the 2 Step in ISBoxer - I moved to first post in green and deleted it from here to make this thread pretty(er).

If you are using Lax's "FTL DPS Keys" keymap, you already have a "DPS 2" mapped key that simply sends the keypress of a "2" to all windows when you press "2".
Create another mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" called "2 Step" that is also called when you press "2" but has two steps - the first sends "2" to all windows (exactly as above), while the second step sends ";" to all windows.

Now all you need to do is set up a new mapped key in your "Control" key map. I called mine "2 Step Toggle" and associated it with the "Insert" key. It will have two steps in it.
Step one has 3 actions:
1) A new mapped key state action (one of the options when you add a new step) that toggles the "DPS 2" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to On
2) A new mapped key state action that toggles the "2 Step" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to Off
3) A popup text with a message like "2 Step Turned OFF"
Step two has 3 actions:
1) A new mapped key state action that toggles the "DPS 2" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to Off
2) A new mapped key state action that toggles the "2 Step" mapped key within "FTL DPS Keys" to On
3) A popup text with a message like "2 Step Turned ON"

That's it! Use "Insert" to turn your toggle on or off.

Attach the sequence macros to your "2" key in WoW and the proc macros to your ";" key in WoW. Done.

(Of course, you may want to associate your proc macros with something other than ";" - Pinot used "9" and sent the 2nd step of his "2 Step" mapped key action to "9".)

Hope that helps.

Thanks for this, I've just come back after a two year break from WoW and changed over to ISBoxer from Keyclone in the process. Still learning the new system but little tricks like this are superb.

But a quick note for the unwary. If, like me, you're in the habit of changing keymap settings in ISBoxer and uploading the changes while your sessions are running PLEASE remember to hit the "two step toggle" key straight away. Until that toggle is used IS will send "22" and then "2," with each alternate press while both keymaps remain active.

Can anyone tell me how to setup a keymap that begins in a state of "off"?

If you click on Advanced, under the name of the Mapped Key and above the Steps, the bottom option lets you not load the mapped key initially.

Thanks, that got it =D
