In game element layout and video feeds

[Lax]

Dang. Are there any features of ISboxer that work across multiple PCs?

If Feeds did, I would snag ISboxer asap (is it even possible?). Just wondering what else would work, though.

That's actually one of the only features that wont work on multiple PCs

It is technically possible, and planned but no ETA. Hopefully in 2012.

But the world will end in 2012.

Yeahhhh, if you could speed that along that would be grrrrrreat. In fact, I'm gonna need you to work on it this Saturday, oh and Sunday too. Mmkay?

So, I actually got the chance to record some video of the setup last night in Enemies Abound 5/5. Wow does this shit work guuuud. Blows things up pronto.

tks for the great video. I'm picking up some great combat tips as well as layout. When getting my Vid fx feeds setup, i didn't provide enough room Drones.

As an aside, is there an option for hotkey, rather than mouseover, for drone management? I see that drone commands are one of the few "combat" related hotkeys/ shortcuts that is available. So shortcuts plus Isboxer equals ??

Yes, there are hotkeys for drone management but I'm not sure what options are available. I've been doing very well with the mouse broadcasting so far and my experience with keyboard commands did not inspire confidence.

Now after watching that video feed and seeing how it all 'works' I think I'll pick up ISBoxer again and have a go. Ugh, is there a step by step guide of how you did the setup in your video? I've completely forgotten everything about ISBoxer and am going to struggle how to start up again lol

Now that I finally got video fx and repeater regions working in WoW, I'm super excited to get back to multiboxing eve. Those two features of isboxer is going to make my life so much easier.

Hmm...I thought I did put one in there. Lemme see if I can find it.

[edit] Nope, didn't put steps for setting up the feeds. The blank window (dxNothing) for adding feeds from all the windows is here: http://isboxer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=1222

In a nutshell, what you do is switch to the window/client you want to see a feed FROM, open the in-game GUI, add a videofx source named isSomething, apply it and save as Auto. Then go to your main window/client where you want to put the feed, open the in-game GUI, add a videofx viewer named isSomething, size/position it, apply and save as Auto. If your viewer is bigger than your source, that will just show more of the source window. If your viewer is smaller than your source, it will shrink the source down, making text harder to read, etc.

If you need more info, let me know and I'll write up something more detailed.

[ninja_edit] Why reinvent the wheel? Basically, use this as your starting point (basic videofx setup works the same no matter which game you're using):

Cheers matey, I'll give it a go at the weekend and see how I manage
