HOWTO: Multibox SWTOR on one PC with ISBoxer!

[Kris1234]

How I got mine to work EVENTUALLY

DPS 1 (Mapped Key)
Hold any keystroke action = ON

Step1:> CTRL+SHIFT+F2. Target ALL, w/o current (your in game keybind to party member 1, I set mine different so check what yours is)

Step2:> ALT-T, Target ALL w/o current (keybind to aquire targets target)

Step3:>1, Target ALL WITH current


It takes a few presses to get my other guys firing, but it works for now. I did try making it all less steps but didnt work. They change targets when I do, just click the mouse for a target and spam the key.


EDIT: 1 thing i do have problems with, is working out who will be party member 1, I know with 2 people its easy but I was doing 4. sure i'll figure this out eventualy

You should be able to do setup a 2 Action Step 1, and cut out on the key presses, after testing over the last 2 days its far faster and smoother to do so.

Kris and I spent some time together yesterday to work this out. I believe we got him straightened out now. Although Bioware indicated they lifted the non disclose, I was still unable to take screenshots, as all my pictures came out solid black... all 87 of them LOL.

Perhaps Kris will post his pictures. Watching 4x trooper rocket launchers blow stuff up with one action was rather impressive. Did you know... if two rockets blow up and kill a mob, while the body is flying backwards... the second two rockets will follow the body, and exlpode on the carcass. glorious!

Yes i noticed that last night myself. I also noticed if you stagger your Sticky-nades ever so slightly as well you get that similar exploding body flying around type effect.

I also noticed a few other issues, let me know if anyone else ran into these:
- Jumping off from various heights to lower ground causes your followers to run a weird path instead of following right behind you on the jump.
- When you press a key to jump or attacked using our current 2 step 2/1 action setup causes your toon to stop following and sometimes be out of range.

I have some minor fixes for all of these that im using right now: ie for the first one, i use my arrow keys to move my toons off cliffs now so it breaks follow, but for the run and gun/jumping forward i have not found a fix for it yet. Im hoping to get the run and gun/jumping forward removed as an issue but we may be stuck with it,

I definitely saw both of those.

How about this one.
- Using the sticky targeting, if you play imperial agent, your toon carrying blasters will be running in one direction, and targeting a mob behind you.. and his body will twist around far enough that it looks un-natural. I need to figure out a way to NOT tab target mobs that are behind me.
Oh and this isnt really a bug, but its helpful....
- you can let your companion take aggro if its looking like you arent going to survive... run, let him die... then instead of going back to his body to revive him, dismiss him, then resummon him back to health. I havent tried to dismiss a companion while in combat yet to see what happens.

Ill try to get some video uploaded this week.. I actually recorded my follower doing that. I named my 2nd BH Macko for giggles, and it looks like how a pet/companion would react.

Apps pointed me here and helped my targeting issues greatly. Kris/Apps/Anyone....when using this method....my slaves stop following me after attacking...because I guess I'm no longer the target they are following. What to do?

If you two box would you be able to solo the heroic quest?

ROFL!! Dude I think that's the best excuse and solution I've read in a long time. Nicely done. Mind posting what you had wrong to help with others and creating some SOP instructions.
